Universal has debuted the second full length trailer for Land of the Lost, the summer comedy starring Will Ferrell, Danny McBride, Anna Friel, and Jorma Taccone. We've previously seen a Super Bowl TV spot and a full length teaser trailer, which makes this only an extended version of what we've pretty much already watched before. There are some new scenes in this trailer, plenty of them actually, but it doesn't look any better than before. Sorry to say, but I think Land of the Lost looks just plain awful. All of the CGI looks terrible and Ferrell's dialogue isn't even funny at all. Who knows, I could be wrong, but I highly doubt it.
Give this brand new trailer below a shot and please tell me I'm not the only one who thinks it looks terrible?

On his latest expedition, Dr. Rick Marshall (Will Ferrell) is sucked into a space-time vortex alongside his research assistant and a redneck survivalist. In this alternate universe, the trio make friends with a primate named Chaka, their only ally in a world full of dinosaurs, Sleestaks, and other fantastic creatures.
Land of the Lost is directed by Brad Silberling, of Casper, City of Angels, Moonlight Mile, Lemony Snicket, and 10 Items or Less previously. "Saturday Night Live" writer Dennis McNicholas and "Entourage" writer Chris Henchy together wrote the screenplay. This is a feature remake of the 1970's TV show of the same name. Universal's Land of the Lost hits theaters everywhere this summer on June 5th. See you there?

Looks good to me, although with all the films coming out I'll wait till DVD, I expect it to be entertaining.

Geeeze Will Ferrell is on a roll, one shitty movie after another. Such lame jokes, he should just make 1-2min skits on funnyordie.com and stop with the movies already.

I'll see it for Danny McBride and CGI Dinosaurs but I'm not too hopeful.

I have a feeling that the smart T-Rex eventually becomes their friend and saves them at a critical moment near the end of the film. I doubt he can save the movie itself, though.

it doesn't look good. but it also doesn't look as bad as Alex is making it out to be. there's no need to be snobby about this movie kids will love it, adults wont, and that's that.

Apparently no one understands what Will Ferrell movies are about. Let me explain so even the simplest of minds can comprehend...they are supposed to be stupid!! It's unbelievable that people think that these Will Ferrell movies are trying to win Oscars or score big at the box office.

No way Alex. I'm not the biggest fan of comedy films. But this looks great! Sci-fi comedy, I'm down.

Wow, for once I don't disagree with Alex... let me write the date down.

Wow...I forgot about this movie. I thought it came and gone already, seriously. They were talking about it somewhere and I ignored it thinking it was old news. lol So pathetic, straight to DVD, let's move on.

Will Ferrel? I'm there!!! #1 I would like to meet your grandmother.

Sure the CGI looks a little schlocky but I think that's the point. This trailer actually had me chuckling a little bit... Don't get me wrong, I think this can be placed in a category with Will Farrell's 'Bewitched' but I don't think it will be as bad as everyone is saying. I actually think it might surprise quite a few of you once it comes out.

i feel like a loser cuz i laughed at this trailer. i thought it looked kind of funny though i prob will wait until it comes out of dvd

i really think it is supposed to have a campy 80s feel to the effects. that is the only explanation i can come up with as to why it looks so cheesy.

Its a kids movie or is it not? I think Will Ferrell is better in adult movies. I'm sure the kids will love this though.

At the very least, much better then the first trailer. Who agrees?

What do you expect Alex from a Will Ferrell movie. This looks cool as hell. This is apparently based on a televison series from the 70's so I think it is cool that they made it look cheesy. Will Ferrell is the man. If you don't like his films then don't bloody watch them. The same can be said about Adam Sandler. All these bloody critics who don't even like him go and watch his films and then trash them. Get over yourselves and let the people who actually like fine comedians like Ferrell doing what he does best.

Heh, looks stupid, but fun stupid, like something you'd watch with your buddies and laugh at the movie and how unfunny and uncanny it is.
Tom on May 9, 2009

I agree Tom, this will probably be a movie to watch with your friends and laught!!! that's all ^_^, u won't get any higher message!

I don't get all you negative mo fo's! It's a silly, fun flick. Don't take it so serious. I agree with #16, the CGI isn't supposed to be cutting edge, it will look a little off and that's fine. I do agree that Ferrell can be a bit hit or miss but this looks fine. Will be good flick to relax and have a few laughs too. Nothing you need to think about or take seriously! Hell I'll watch it just to hear him scream out "Mat Lauer can suck it!" No that's funny!
K on May 9, 2009

You hate it. We got that looong time ago.Its an actual kids flick. Lets take it for what it is shall we. It is not all about waving black matles and speaking pseudo teenage philosophy crap ala batman or watchen.

I love Ferrell and McBride hahaha. This movie is gonna be great. That being said I know the CG looks cheap and unrealistic and all the jokes are stupid and pointless.... but thats why Ferrell movies are so great.

Just like Pete Townsend screams, I really hope noone is fooled again by another stupid ass Will Ferrel shit storm of bad. I really hope he gets eaten and digested so that he might accidently contribute something of value to to even a CGI dinosaur. Not even slightly interested. Don't know why I watched the trailer. You're not alone Mr. Billington, you're not alone.

wow, when does it stop, is there going to be a new Will Ferell movie every month?Just wondering!!!!!!!

Wtf, I am sure I have seen far worse CGI, this didn't look that bad at all. I always liked Will Farrell. I'm all about retarded humor every once in a while. His face alone makes me giggle, he just looks goofy. I'd prefer this kind of movie over an American Pie style "Zomg, I need to get laid, aaaah!" movie anytime. I guess, with Adam Sandler, Will Farrell and Jim Carrey it's always the same. You either love them, or hate them.

i sure hope the do #38. i could watch will farrell and kenny powers all day every day. i was waiting for another will farrell movie. it's been a while. i had to get by on eastbound and down to see danny mcbride and now that's over so its about time he does something else. as for will farrell, step bros is a classic and i definitely agree with #39 too. virgins trying to get laid gets really old really fast.

#35 hysterical A DVD rental, of course, but it doesn't look as bad as, say, GI Joe.

#49 I totaly agree with you. People don't understand the sense of this comedy. I think this'll be the best movie of the summer. Well...right next to transformers that is!

Wait a minute!!!! Who are these people saying this is a kids movie? Did you even watch the trailer? Last I was aware, kids movies don't have a horny ape man touching a grown woman's breasts. God, how stupid. Juvenile. Stupid stupid stupid. When I saw that part I literally had to shut the trailer off. I'm sorry, but this movie looks like absolute crap. Sure, there will be a few spots that anyone with a healthy sense of humor will laugh at, but I'm sure that most of the movie will be a complete crap fest. Couldn't we have gotten a serious treatment of Land of the Lost? The only people on earth who even care about a Land of the Lost film are the people who liked the cheesy, but serious, adventure show when we were kids and WE wanted to see a serious, updated version, not another over-the-top Will Ferrell vehicle. And, I even LIKE Will Ferrell. God, I wish someone would remember how to write for him...

all you guys sayin this looks cheesy and the CGI is so bad are retarded. its supposed to be like that, if you new anything about comedy film you would know that this is what will ferrell films are like - utterly ridiculous! and that is what makes them funny, and what will make this film funny.
