MacGruber

http://iamrogue.com/macgruber/

Originally a SNL spoof on the TV series MacGyver, the MacGruber movie appears more like a R-rated version of The Pink Panther than a parody of Richard Dean Anderson's jack of all trades.

Will Forte stars as the title character, a clueless ex-special ops soldier brought back in when his old nemesis, played by Val Kilmer, steals a nuclear warhead. Ryan Phillippe and Kristen Wigg co-star in the film, which supposedly has been well-received in test screenings.

MacGruber is the first SNL character to get a feature film since The Ladies Man in 2000.

This baffles me. These skits are funny 10% of the time at best.

Well, after watching the trailer it does look a little funny.

Another movie in a long line of MTV trying to make a mountain out of a molehill (marginally funny skit) and failing.

Plot Summary: Only one American hero has earned the rank of Green Beret, Navy SEAL and Army Ranger. Just one operative has been awarded 16 purple hearts, 3 Congressional Medals of Honor and 7 presidential medals of bravery. And only one guy is man enough to still sport a mullet. In 2010, Will Forte brings "Saturday Night Live's" clueless soldier of fortune to the big screen in the action comedy "MacGruber."

In the 10 years since his fiancée was killed, special op MacGruber has sworn off a life of fighting crime with his bare hands. But when he learns that his country needs him to find a nuclear warhead that's been stolen by his sworn enemy, Dieter Von Cunth (Val Kilmer), MacGruber figures he's the only one tough enough for the job.

Assembling an elite team of experts--Lt. Dixon Piper (Ryan Phillippe) and Vicki St. Elmo (Kristen Wiig)--MacGruber will navigate an army of assassins to hunt down Cunth and bring him to justice. His methods may be unorthodox. His crime scenes may get messy. But if you want the world saved right, you call in MacGruber.

I have a big crush on Kristen Wiig. Since I could care less about this movie, just thought I would share.
