What was supposed to be a film about a team of researchers finding a Lost World-like land where dinosaurs still reside quickly turns into a film about monotone idiots rock climbing. Normally, I try to stand up for Lost World knock-offs, but Lost Continent is just too boring to salvage. By the time that our heroes do get to the dinosaurs, you're already asleep.
Verdict: 1/4-zzzzzzzzzz....
The boys try their hardest in the theater, but when you're up agents a film as boring as this one...well, there just isn't enough to properly make fun of. The few times that things actually HAPPEN the boys are quite funny, but there's just too much dead air for it to get a very high recommendation.
OPENER: Joel gives the bots a pep talk
INVENTIONS: Frank's treadmill, Joel doesn't get any time for his invention
SEGMENT 1: Hugh Beamount visits the Hexfield
SEGMENT 2: The Explorers
SEGMENT 3: The Bots find something interesting out side.
END: Fun facts about Lost Continent
STINGER: Camp fire chant
OVERALL: There where some bits that got a good giggle out of me and the Invention Exchange (or lack thereof) was the highlight of the episode.
FINAL VERDICT: The film bogs the episode down with it's overwhelming boredom. The riffing was far from impressive, but the crew tried to deal with what they had.
