Hold up! 'Arrested Development' movie not yet greenlit

Oh, they've GOT to make this movie. Smart humor, uncomfortable situations, and million-to-one plot twists made this show my favorite, and if Fox doesn't deliver I might just cry.

Stop teasing ya’ll!
This WILL happen, coz no-one would be dumb enough to pass this opportunity up.
Famous last words…

Sigh . . . I guess it's back to my Teamocil and analrapist

This shows needs to at least be on cable. I miss the quirkiness and the smart comedy it provided.

Just when I had my cut-offs pressed and ready to go they pull the rug out from under me. Come on FOX, please make this movie. I promise I will see it twice in the theaters and buy the dvd.

Why God...Why!?!?!?! I am a very grumpy old woman and I smiled all day trying to guess what fabulous plot twists they would come up with all the while Ron Howard's voice emphasized my inner monologue. Has Hollywood learned nothing from Sex and the City and Serenity? People want to see this movie made.

You guys are pretty harsh!

Chill out...pretty sure he is being sarcastic in that comment and if you can't tell kind of making fun of SJP and the whole hold up with SATC movie...

And even if he weren't kidding, he's an actor playing a role. It could be very possible that the guy was a huge tool even if his character is "so modest".

RE: "Wow...Michael Cera's character is so modest in Arrested Development, it's hard to believe he'd be demanding!!
"A huge star attitude?" That doesn't sound like Cera has Bateman's ringing endorsement..."

HE WAS KIDDING. It's called sarcasm.

UGGGGG!!!!! How are all these lame movies getting made yet there's not enough money for an Arrested Development movie???? WHATEVER!

Lynette, why you gotta break my heart like that? For a solid 48 hours, I was on cloud nine. And I know there were dozens of us feeling the same way.

So what you're saying is that the "Arrested Development" movie maybe... arrested in development?

Oddly, for this show, it makes sense.

Andrew Wed, Jul 2, 2008 at 09:07 AM EST

Okay, I know "internet petitions" are more or less the biggest joke the internet has to offer... but I will literally do ANYTHING for this movie to get green-lit and written... as long as I know it's happening, I'll be happy... Hurwitz can take as long as he needs, let the genius work... but this movie NEEDS TO HAPPEN... what's the best way??

Duh Wed, Jul 2, 2008 at 04:55 AM EST

Ace I've got a task, go on any internet dictionary and see if they've removed the definition of gullible for me will ya pal?

Wed, Jul 2, 2008 at 02:51 AM EST

That was a joke, you ninny.

Ace Wed, Jul 2, 2008 at 02:43 AM EST

Wow...Michael Cera's character is so modest in Arrested Development, it's hard to believe he'd be demanding!!
"A huge star attitude?" That doesn't sound like Cera has Bateman's ringing endorsement...
