So classic that it will probably land an endangered video store employee on the cover of Purple magazine, the official Troll 2 shirt from Austin's Mondo Tees more than earns its price in sunglass-dips from geek broads.

One of the most recycled, one-note, inexplicably dated bits in the history of SNL, "MacGruber," is still moving forward as a feature film.

Universal has released the Super Bowl advertisement for Land of the Lost. I'm impressed with some of the visuals, but the jokes and plot seem overwhelmingly generic.

Universal has premiered a movie poster for their big screen take of Land of the Lost and the sequel Fast and Furious. Click on the images above to see the large versions on Cinematical and MTV.
