lol 9 years later. Nice call mcruz.

It's actually gonna be a movie WOW. Just wow.
I fear this is gonna be the "Ladies Man" of the new generation of SNL'ers after a few decent characters being good in movies, then LM reminded us how the sketches are SUPPOSED to be 3 minutes long, not 93 minutes long.

Chipping away at a mountain of pop culture trivia,

It looks like this is indeed going to happen:

This is awesome! I am so going to watch it!!!!! MacGruber!!!

Finally an SNL movie that sounds good. Most of the time they make the movies on the characters that aren't funny (Roxbury guys, The Ladies Man, Superstar Are you kidding me?) but MacGruber is actually funny. How come it's not listed on IMDB though?

This is going to be a terrible movie with awful reviews
But I would totally pre-order the DVD now if I could.

Haha this is gonna be awesome
How can I contact Forte? I wanna tell him I would relocate to Albuquerque just for a spot in the movie.

Will Forte confirmed it on Late Night with Jimmy Fallon. They just finished writing it.

confirmed

How in the hell would you do a 70+ minute movie based on skits that are based entirely on the premise of a 10 second countdown? Maybe a couple hundred episodes one after the other?
This is perhaps the most misinformed and poorly thought out idea I have ever seen on IMDB. No, not perhaps, it IS.

Come on! Pepsuber was funny!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Yea so he can Sell Out some more.

The guy's a freakin' genius
Yes, I'd gladly pay to see/own any movie he makes.

That too would be hilarious!

But the whole joke of MacGruber relies on it being incredibly short.
What I'd like is some sort of Falconer movie.

I dont know. Maybe. Since they made the 20 second pointless night at the roxburry skit into a hilarious movie im sure they could do this. The only hard part would be thinking of a plot line that could last an hour 20 minutes. But I could actually see it being really funny but it probably wont make any money at all. Superstar was good id never expect that to make it to a movie but that was funny. Coneheads was pretty hilarious. Yeah I think they could do it. Laser cats would be a much cooler movie though =] But yeah id see macgruber the movie hell yeah.
Marta: Te Quiero.
Gob: English, please.
Marta: I love you.
Gob: Great, now I'm late.

If they made a Macgruber movie, I'd see it 10 times. And I'm only 15!

Ya'll are beep retarded, MacGruber only works in small doses That's kinda the whole point

MacGruber never gets old. Thanks for the talent Will!
Joe, I can categorically say you are not a bigger banana head.

I am so glad that I am not did only one that loves McGruber. And by the way, there is a new McGruber skit!!!

Compared to all the crap they lay out year after year, all those dance movies I love Will Forte for his hilarity. We ought to petition a sweet sweet McGruber movie.

Hot Rod is a cult classic ffs

For the most part, SNL based movies don't make alot of money, but alot of them have been pretty funny. It's when SNL actors go on to movies after working on SNL that they make alot of money/ get popular. (As in Will Ferrel- who was extremely lucky to be surrounded after SNL with some top notch talent- Judd Apatow, Adam McKay, ect)
I'd definitely go see a MacGruber movie, but I doubt it could ever get made, the references to MacGyver are so ancient, I don't think the 12-17 category would enjoy it, and that's exactly what went wrong with HOT ROD. (That, and it was a terrible movie)
