Really? Seriously?

So, it's a funny 10-second sketch, but a movie? Really? Seriously?

Will Forte's recurring sketch parody about an easily distracted MacGyver-type [MacGruber] has Ryan Phillippe and Val Kilmer in its sights for a full-length adaptation. Phillippe would play an Army colonel who recruits the jaded MacGruber (Forte) for a mission to stop a nuclear-armed villain, conceivably played by Kilmer. Kristin Wiig will reprise her supporting role. [entertainment weekly]

This kinda sounds like "Top Secret" again... just not as funny.

What is this sketch? I've never heard of it.

When will people learn that short sketches might be funny, but that does not necessarily warrant a movie (or, in the case of the Geico Cavemen, a tv show)...
