"Okay, here's the plan. You lock me in the trunk of a car and park it under the pier at low tide. All I need are these everyday objects: a nail file, a Farmers' Almanac, a gun with no bullets, some bullets and three of my MacGyver writers."

It's official! New Line is developing a feature film based on "MacGyver."
The daughter of Dino De Laurentiis, Raffaella De Laurentiis, is producing the film through her Raffaella Prods. And Mister Laurentiis is taking the role of executive producer.
According to a recent poll, "MacGyver" beat "Buffy the Vampire Slayer" and "24" as America's favorite TV action hero!
So can "MacGyver" be a global franchise? New Line's Richard Brener says, "We think we're a stick of chewing gum, a paper clip and an A-list writer away from a global franchise."

I even watched the MacGyver TV movies which were utter crap but at the same time good.
Oh ya and MacGyver also had a nemesis that he would kill but would also come back to life. That dude was awesome too.

My boys (7&14) love that show ... we're into season 4 from Netflix. I loved it in my day too, but I just had a crush on Richard Dean Anderson back then.

He loved using weapons of all kinds on Stargate: SG-1. RDA is an environmentalist liberal in real life, but I’m a fan of the General.
My only question... Will the movie version of MacGyver still drive the Jeep YJ? I had one just like it. I miss my YJ. *sniff*
Just trying my new tagline
Again

I nominate Brendan Fraser!
Richard Dean Anderson appeared on SNL. He looked bloated and old. He looked fine a few years ago on that stargate show.
