I can’t even watch SNL anymore. I feel bad for the actors that no one in the audience laughs. When they do laugh it’s a pity laugh or because the MC told them to.

I liked The Brothers Solomon a lot. Will Arnett and Will Forte were very surprising in that movie. Maybe I wasn’t expect too much from it after the bashing it received from the crittics and after making only $900,000 in North America. Has anybody else seen it?
Anyway, As for a MacGruber movie. I think people like the skit only because it’s so strange and because it’s literally always like 30 seconds long. So how would a movie work? Would it be the same skit for 1 and a half hours? I’m sure people would love to see that. And if it’s anything other than that, then it won’t really be a MacGruber movie, but something else altogether. This seems to be the only popular character on SNL right now. Although I have to admit I havent seen SNL in a while.

I don’t know. Depending on who writes it, I think it has potential. Obviously it would have very little to do with the actual sketches, but the idea of the character is funny enough. I kind of liked The Brothers Solomon myself. I think they need to go completely weird and silly with the humour for it to work though. Maybe like a more modern day Billy Madison or something.

if one is inclined towards Will Forte, Brothers Solomon was a lot better than the critics had it made out to be. not an A comedy by any standards, but it had enough for me to enjoy.

A MacGruber film huh? That would be terrible! I hope they don’t bother wasting the money. I certainly wouldn’t waste time watching it.

Personally, I’d be in for a “MacGruber” film. I think Will Forte is quite funny.

“he current SNL cast and writing staff havenâ€™t created any memorable characters worthy of the big screen.”

While there are some recurring characters, they don’t put stock in them like they used to. Current recurring characters seem to be purposefully annoying that nobody would want to spend time with. Macgruber is the closest they have to one which is “likeable”

speaking of recurring characters hope people at least caught Will Ferrell bringing back Celebrity Jeopardy and Harry Carey this weekend.
