I actually remember watching Land of the Lost in theaters with a few buddies back in college. We didn’t expect much going in, just something dumb and fun—and that’s exactly what we got. I missed the detail about the lighter until years later when someone pointed it out online, and it honestly blew my mind a little. For a movie that leans so heavily into absurdity, there’s actually some sneaky cleverness baked in.
It’s those little hidden gags that make rewatching old comedies worth it. The first time you’re just laughing at the chaos, but the second or third time around, you catch the writers winking at you through tiny Easter eggs. Land of the Lost wasn’t exactly a cinematic masterpiece, but moments like that lighter bit show that someone behind the scenes was having fun and paying attention. Gotta respect that.
Was he on a routine expedition? Any earthquakes? (I so loved that show! One of my favorite sci fi authors, Larry Niven, wrote an episode of Land of the Lost.)
At one point in the movie, Will Ferrell's character eats a donut stuffed with M&Ms, so when he's done eating the donut, he doesn't have to eat any M&Ms, which is definitely a very Buddy the Elf thing to do.
lmao so youre wrong, the "light" is raised and above his hairline, that's not how light or reflections work, it's also not bright at all, in fact it's darker than his WHITE shirt which makes zero sense. in other words, you're coping and trying to argue it's not him for what? because you're very clearly wrong lol
