Hold on to your butts, folks. Nickelodeon just went all Nostalgia, Ultra on us and flipped iconic ’90s game show Legends Of the Hidden Temple into a live-action movie about magic temples, orange jaguars, and kids wearing bicycle helmets in magic temples.

The trailer, which you can watch below, makes Paul Thomas Anderson’s Magnolia look like amateur-hour nonsense.
