Whew!! The LAND OF THE LOST Movie Has Finally Found Its Chaka!!
Merrick here...
The Will Ferrell LAND OF THE LOST movie has thrown SATURDAY NIGHT LIVE's Jorma Taccone into the mix as Chaka. Taccone recently appeared in HOT ROD.
This news per JoBlo.
You can find footage of Chaka from the original LAND OF THE LOST television series HERE. "Embedding disabled by request" says this particular clip; who are they to contain Chaka greatness?
I really, really want to see what a Sleestack looks like in the new movie. I couldn't find a YouTube video of one of them.

I was hoping Cameron Bright "aka The Creepy Kid",would wear the suit.That would defantly be creepy.
-
Or get creepier with Crispin Glover.
-
creepy little phuck.
-
I mean I even like him but pretty much all his films are unfunny and crap. Yet the man still takes my dollars..!!
-
Another movie to ruin a classic legacy.
-
...'till American Idol was over and hired David Archuleta.
-
Meh.
-
I hope Holly has sex with him / it.
-
it's just not fair
-
...in perfect four part harmony as they go over the giant waterfall...all will be well. This is the PERFECT type of old crap to remake...it can be stupid, funny, have some kick ass adventure stuff and gigantic over the top corny special effects. Perfect material for Will Farrell. Can't wait.
-
They did that song in concert and they ruled, I think it would be a great fit if they did the cover of the Land of the Lost tune for the movie.
-
Let me keep you nice and warm, Chaka.

With friends like you, who needs friends? Geez the guy who posted that video is just mean. Did you guys read the description? He made a video of chaka, something his friend loves, and mixed in clips of a movie that gives him nightmares, just to fuck him up. Real nice. I actually had completely forgotten about Chaka until now, by the way.

...logo appears on the black screen after the intro...I feel an overwhelming compulsion to sing out "...in the laaaaand oooooof thuuu looooowaoooostt!..." I find that it tends to annoy the people around me but I can't seem to stop.
-
The past few days on this site, seeing the slew of remakes and re-imaginings... it makes me sick to my stomach.

Sid and Marty used members of the UCLA basketball team for the Sleestacks.

"the smoke.. it's doing something to his MIIIIND!"
The little known LSD episode of Land of the Lost, in which the Sleestaks contemplate the concept that the atomic world is just another universe, only tiny.. populated with Nano-Sleestaks. -
eat machaca?
-
...is Pakuni.
-
Or any of his movies very funny.
-
...and get several different actors to "interpret" Chaka.
I would like to see the Lawrence Tierney version. -
...Adventure Hour man myself.

They look just like Pylons but in the sky." Sweet Neanderthal Jesus that show was stupid but it was stupid in the perfect way it should have been. I want stop action dinos in the movie none of that CGI stuff.

...Pacman cereal and Frankenberry by the giant soggy bowl...

I'm with you man. He's the most mind bogglingly overrated funny man or all time. I don't even get where I'm suppose to laugh when he's on the screen. He'd needs laugh tracks following him so I know where the funny moments are suppose to be cause I can't even guess, let alone laugh.
-
I will never waste my time on a Will Ferrell "comedy" again!
-
So which Ferrell comedies do you like/dislike? Semi-Pro is not as bad as youre acting. Its no Anchorman, but still
-
Jesus tapdancing Chris, Clint Howard was is and forever will be the ONE TRUE CHAKA! I would accept a sober Gary Coleman (or a drunk Corey Feldman), but why should we compromise?

I will watch this ONLY if it has horrible special effects.
by gibsonusa
I should see the fingers sticking out of the monster puppets. If it has good special effects, or typical Will Smith movie CG, then forget it.
-
While we're on the topic of nepotism; maybe Brooke Shields can play Chaka's mom. After all, the script was co-written by Chris Henchy her husband.
-
I like Will when he isn't up front all of the time, like in Old School, but those days are long gone, I'm afraid. Semi Pro almost made that turd Bewitched look good. At least that one had Nicole Kidman.
-
I don't recal if they were Chaka's parents,big brothers or what, but they were bullies. He needs to pull a Vito Andolini on them, escape, change identities, grow up, gain power, come back, and stick it to them.
-
Some guy?
-
I understand that. Anchorman had his crew and everyone else. Nobody in Semi-Pro brought anything else (except the announcers), so he was up front. Stepbrothers hopefully will be better.

Mr. Peepers, Gollum.. Hello?!?

Hilarious sleestacks-in-a-library clip from Robot Chicken

Zip boxoffice. Upon viewing the E! reruns of SNL (now floundering in bad writing and hype for the corrupt Mrs. Clinton), I have unimpeachable evidence that Will Ferrell is NOT funny. Phil Hartman, class. Jon Lovitz, hilarious. Tim Meadows, extremely underrated. Will Ferrell, dated. His cheerleader routine looks like an outtake from ABBOTT AND COSTELLO IN THE FOREIGN LEGION.
-
You're spot on, i.w. Kattan as Chaka.
-
No doubt they'll be some hilarity in how ridiculously slow the Sleestacks moved. The cast always had to back away from them for a few beats to keep the chase scene going. And didn’t you love there was always a convenient exit to their bottomless pit of despair?
-
Shit. Another shit movie coming our way. Maybe if Shia was cast as Chaka, that's what I'm talking bout!
-
RUN!!!!
-
Taken seriously this could have been a better story than 10000 BC...is 10000 BC a spoof?
-
It will be a great day when a movie theater screen displays a bunch of talking, giant anthropomorphic hats, with Steve Carell playing the role of Hoodoo.
-
The man was Ron Burgundy,Frank the Tank and Ricky Bobby, not to mention all of his great SNL skits. Semi Pro is funny, hell even Kicking and Screaming had it's moments. I think when Will Ferrell is unrestrained he is awesome. This moive spooks me a bit but the tv series was horrendus so what could be worse? Also no one mentions the fact that the show was remade in the 90's and it sucked even worse.
