Will Farrell's character's name is "Rick Marshall"!

Although I'm sure the special effects will be far better than what a Saturday morning program could ever afford to provide, my concerns about the movie run akin to when the 1989 Batman film first announced that Tim Burton would direct Michael Keaton in the title role.
Land of the Lost should be like the Indiana Jones films in its tone. An action/adventure somewhat lightheart.
Here's hoping those behind the movie get it right.
