YES! I can't wait for this movie. Reminds me of wearing husky Toughskins, having a rusty lunchbox and riding my Evel Knievel bike to school.

Awe, man...you had the Evel Knievel bike? I'm jealous! I had one of those crappy Huffy Desperado bikes with the banana seat, ape-hanger handlebars, and streamers.
I did have a 6 Million Dollar man lunchbox though!
Ah...those were the days!

I have to admit I thought Holly was hot. Do you remember Cha-Ka?
I so wanted the evil bike. I also wanted the green machine but I only got a big wheel. I did have the Evil and six million dollar man lunch boxes. Man I miss lunch boxes. Except I always forgot to take my thermos out after school. What about SSP's. At least that's what I thought they were called. I had evil's bike that had a launcher that you crank up or you could use a rip cord.

I think most boys watching Land of the Lost had a crush on Holly.
I had a crush on her...and that blond girl on the Electric Company! Anywho...I remember my friend had the green machine, and he made fun of me because I too had the big wheel. Until my mom ran over it with her car.
Then it was my squished wheel.I had the Evel bike launcher too! He had many visits with my cousin's Barbie dolls. If you know what I mean.

Atlanta had "The World of Sid and Marty Croft" a major trippy park . So sad it closed before I got to go. Dr. Shrinker Dr. Shrinker he's a mad man with an evil mind. R.I.P. Billy Barty. Captain Kool and the Kongs, Wonder Bug and Sigmund the Sea monster. Remember when kid shows were mostly a Sat morning thing? Then on would come THE SOUL TRAIN! Bandstand!

I wasn't even born during this time and I'm still stoked. I've watched a few of the episodes and grew to love this classic.

I wish I could take a time machine back to those days. The days of high adventure. I when we talk about Croft Puppets, I mean "High". LOL
I loved the Wild Boy and Bigfoot tv show too! It was a 6 Million Dollar Man spin-off if I remember correctly.
Yes, hoosierhiver. They have a moving coming out in the near future!

Okay, I just saw Land of The Lost! It is hilarious and all around funny. A couple of bits make you understand why its PG13 in case your bringing the kinders. Enjoy!
I saw the movie and it is hilarious. Another will ferrrel movie and typical fashion with some stupid parts and it is totally random. I swear you must be on some heavy drugs to write a script like that and the story line is pretty retarded but it still has some great one liners in it.

Yep, seen it today as well. It was funny, but it was just a bunch of random scenes. Anna Friel made it worth the watch!

I like the way the paid some homage to the source material, but, all in all pretty disappointing... But, I'm not a will ferrel fan either. I can't in good faith recommend this movie.
