"The "Arrested Development" feature has moved closer to reality, with Mitch Hurwitz and Ron Howard reportedly closing deals for the long-gestating project from Imagine and Fox Searchlight.

I think its time to pull out your phone and cal:

Cause this could be good.

EPIC WIN

Arrested Development has been dead to me ever since they started airing on G4

[nickmitch]

It's been dead to me ever since they canceled it.

[Mario]

Awesome.

[vudu]

Does this mean I need to watch season 3 in order to figure out what's going on?  ::sigh::

[BranDonk Kong]

This will be awesome, but too bad David Cross has become a total sellout douchebag ever since this show went off the air.

[BlackNMild2k1]

Supposedly all cast members are on board, except for one.
The one that is rumored to not be all for the movie... Michael Cera (George Michael)

If that is accurate, I guess Juno & Superbad made someone think they are a bigger star than they really are.

Or maybe it's just a horrible idea and he prefers the series be remembered for the greatness that was season one (i.e. the only good one).

[Mario]

Hurk hurk

[Hostile Creation]

In all likelihood, he's probably demanding too much money.

I don't know, I thought the series finale ended everything perfectly.  What made the show great was the storyline and character development.  Since the last episode tied everything up in a nice way, I don't see where they go from here.

Plus since it's been quite a few years since the show ended, the quality won't be anywhere near as good.  Even if they get all the right people back, it doesn't mean they'll be able to recapture the chemistry that made things great.  This is why all TV series, even if they don't get canceled become shadows of their former selves after so many years.

You're delusional! You really should watch season 3.

[Dasmos]

All the seasons are awesome. All the episodes are awesome. This is going to be awesome. That tard Michael Cera better not ruin this.

[vudu]

All the episodes are awesome.

Even the one with Martin Short?

[Dasmos]

Oh yes. Uncle Jack is awesome.



TO THE NUTS!

GOOD GOD. I love this show. I use to ignore peoples advice and never watched it. Then my buddy came over with the season 3 boxset and I almost **** myself laughing. Days later I completely finished seeing every episode ever made (thanks to Hulu).

I really want this to be true.

As an original, non-bandwagon Arrested Development fan (watched it on TV since the first season), I'm not sure how well it would work as a movie. I'll still watch it though.

Also, vudu's partly right, but both the first and the second seasons are amazing. The show started to lag a bit in the third season, especially with that whole Charlize Theron arc, but it finished incredibly.

And yes, the Martin Short episode is garbage. Probably the only one deserving of being called that.
