Title: Arrested Development movie is go!

Jeffrey Tambor certainly says so! (http://www.collider.com/entertainment/interviews/article.asp?aid=9816&tcid=1)

I think I've got pop pop in my attic, if you catch my drift.

Any news on if Michael Cera will be in it? When I heard about the possibility of an AD movie back during the beginning of the summer, Mr. Cera did not seem willing to be in on it when asked in an interview.

I'm interested to see what the plot will be.

Fuck yeah! And yeah, Will Arnett confirmed it when he was on Conan earlier this year.

IMDb says Cera is "rumored"... hm.



oh fuck 666

Eh, the movie could work without George Michael. Wouldn't be optimal, but I'd prefer to see a movie without him than no movie at all.

According to the Hollywood Reporter, Ron Howard and Mitch Hurvitz have signed deals with Fox Searchlight, which means that, lord willing, it's only a matter of time. Hurvitz will write and apparently he'll share directing duties with Howard.

Right, so, Michael Cera was being a right cunt about it and holding up the progression of the film, but according to ye Tambor he's in (http://www.nydailynews.com/gossip/2009/01/29/2009-01-29_arrested_development_movie_is_on_.html) and it will be made made this year.

Michael Cera is still totally the worst dude, though.

Man I used to like Michael Cera but he's just a dick now and he's going to fuck up Scott Pilgrim fuck that guy so bad.
Title: Re: Arrested Development movie is go?
Post by: Professor Snuggles on 30 Jan 2009, 11:09
Yeah exactly. He is like, the worst person ever for that role.

Anyway, I should be playing Scott Pilgrim.

Sources are saying that Cera is now on board, and it's happening. Hooray.

I have that shirt.  I wore it on Tuesday which was an interesting coincidence because my band did an impromptu recording of our song "Siren Tricks."  Needless to say, I called it "Siren Illusions" the entire time.

As far as I can tell that is despite the presence of Cera, not because.

I don't understand that sentence what does it mean. Like I see those words and I know what they all mean individually but the way you have strung them together in that order is completely nonsensical.

1) John you should probably stop taking it personally when people don't like the things you like
2) Your post still doesn't make sense to me, are you implying that I shouldn't be making judgments on the quality of the Scott Pilgrim flick based on the one preview that is about? 'cos it's not like there is any alternative, and also you are doing the same thing, just arriving at different results.

Sorry to get back on topic here, but it has always seemed to me like people anxiously awaiting an AD movie are kind of forgetting that the series was already rather perfect and have never considered that perhaps we don't need a movie. I mean, remember disappointments like the Strangers with Candy movie? Do you really want AD's legacy to be similarly tarnished? It's time to move on, people.

I'll have you know that Brain Candy was pretty okay.

I have FINALLY got this to watch & have barely left my room for watching. Amazing supporting cast, I mean something with Will Arnett & David Cross in was good enough for me, but to start adding Henry Winkler, Amy Pohler, Liza Minelli in it's every bit as good great as I was lead to believe.

I don't like movies of TV shows, except Serenity & maybe one and a half of the Futurama full lengths (They sort of count, due to it being cancelled then brought back from people complaining on the internet & DVD sales & al that jazz.)

The Simpsons movie wasn't great, I have not seen the Sex In The City movie as I already watched my "Film I know I will not like" this year on a bet. (It was Paul Blart: Mall Cop. I got a kick ass Star Wars T shirt. It was worth it.)

I recently finally watched all of AD beginning to end (I've seen most of the show but totally out of order and in bits and pieces) and jesus christ it really is one of the most well constructed and hilarious TV comedies ever made. The fact that there are running gags that only work in reverse is so f'ing brilliant it hurts.
Title: Re: Arrested Development movie is go!
Post by: Johnny C on 21 Apr 2010, 10:44
Yeah I recently finished blowing through all three seasons in a row and it's incredible to watch everything just build and build.

Tobias' arc in the third season is actually something I could barely believe made it to network TV. "Actually, George Michael was having trouble looking at his dying uncle."

Reading this thread makes me realise maybe I shouldn't take this too seriously, considering there have been about three or four posts in here from the past two years which have all said "NO IT IS DEFINITELY HAPPENING RIGHT NOW".

Anyway this is awesome because that article was posted almost to the minute coinciding with when I started rewatching AD again.
Title: Re: Arrested Development movie is go!
Post by: Ozymandias on 06 Feb 2011, 16:07
Yeah, I have accepted that the AD movie will come out the same day Firefly is back on TV.

Ain't reading news.

I love AD just as much as the next guy with decent taste but I'm almost hoping this movie doesn't happen, considering the quality (or lack thereof) of some of Hurwitz's recent projects.

 Exhibit A: the pseudo AD reunion that was Running Wilde that somehow still managed to...y'know...not be good.

Running Wilde was actually pretty decent. Sit Down Shut Up, on the other hand, was awful. Animation is probably too rigid a format for their collective sensibility.

Anyway, even when they get the script hammered out Michael Cera is going to be out getting his dick sucked by girls with bangs on tour with that Man Man side project so it's still a long, long shot.

Also David Cross is pretty fat now.
