YEAH WHATEVER, TEEN WOLF
12.06.07This is Jason Bateman being his normal fruity-ass self, talking about the possibility of an Arrested Development movie with the show’s creator, Mitchell Hurwitz.
Ever since the final episode aired 22 months ago, with a scene in which Maeby (Alia Shawkat) tried to sell the rights of her family’s story to Ron Howard, only to have the sly producer insist he’d rather see it as a movie than a TV show, “AD” fans have filled the Internet with chatter. [MTV]
Arrested Development is probably the best show of all time, and since everyone on it (Bateman, Michael Cera, Will Arnett) is kind of a big deal now – except David Cross, who must have a thousand-dollar-a-day coke habit to be taking part in the Alvin and the Chipmunks movie – a movie would make sense.
And movie adaptations of TV shows are all the rage right now, what with a Simpsons Movie, X-Files Movie, and Futurama Movie all being made recently. I’m thinking we can expect an Arrested Development movie in about 2015. Right after the Caroline in the City movie comes out.
Petit Update: As commenter "Lalala I can’t hear you!" points out, there’s plenty of goodness to be found on Arrested Development’s IMDB quote page.

The Mighty Fek’lhr would like to see a movie adaptation of Barney Miller.
Besides Christopher Walken, some of the best imdb quotes:
"By definition, gay is smart. I see plenty of macho heterosexual idiots, but nine times out of 10 you can have a great conversation if you find a gay guy."
"I have a tendency to evolve into William Shatner, with my big fat face."
Also, he’s married to Paul Anka’s daughter.
Shatner. I’d fight William Shatner.
You know what show I want to see turned into a movie? Chico and the Man. Cast Freddy Prinze Jr, and end the movie with him being beat to death by the Man.
That, I would pay to see.
how about a Facts of Life movie? modernized for the younger viewer. get lindsay, britney, amy winehouse, rosario dawson (for tootie), don’t know who to suggest for the fat chick…throw a couple 8 balls into each take during principle photography, queue porno music, and let the cameras role…maybe get rosie for the old lady…
Two words: Perfect Strangers.
I’m holding out hope for a "Greatest American Hero" feature.
Believe it or not, I’m walkin’ on air,
I never thought I could feel so free-ee-ee
Flyin’ away on a wing and prayer,
Coo-uld it be?
Believe it or not it’s just me….
Good luck gettin’ that fuckin’ song out of your head for the rest of the day.
My favorite scene from Arrested Development was when Bluth family attorney Barry Zuckercorn (played by Henry Winkler) was walking down the pier, where someone had caught a shark. The dead shark was laying on the pier, and Barry jumped over it.
Simple, yet effective.
christ on a whole-wheat bun! now i can’t get that fucking song out of my head!!!
damn you JHC…damn you straight to hell.
I’d also like to see a Disney’s Adventures of the Gummi Bears feature film.
I want to see Punky Brewster remade into a movie. A porno movie. With Soleil Moon Frye. Have you seen that ho lately?

sheck it out.
JHC, your avatar is a bunny.
a bunny that is looking at me like it wants to pull my intestines out through my nose.
fuckin hell Jack. i missed that one. gotta go youtube it as soon as i get to the casa.
Tyler Perry Presents: The Family Matters Movie: Urkle’s Got His Groove Back
Koru- It’s some photoshopped rabbit/cat hybrid. Pussyrabbit maybe?
I remember that one Jack. I thought it was brilliant.
I miss that show. I really liked it. It was nice to have a show that wasn’t all about 20 somethings fucking and fighting.
There’s a new series coming out that looks cool. They should make movies about it. I think it’s called Terminator: The Sarah Conner Chronicles.
They could make the first season of Heroes into a movie, but give them costumes and have it set in a school. Also, they need some holocaust reference. I know, the bad guy could be a survivor…. Someone get me a pen. Hmm.
cen yoo guise imajun if dey gawt joey lo-renssh ta doo a Blosshum movie? Wheoa!
JHC: Or Hop-a-long Pussy?
It’s a Demon PussyBunny
Remember the cartoon The Real Ghostbusters? They should make a movie out of that!
Jack!: But make it a musical. Can’t get enough of musicals.
Make a TV show out of the Producers, then make a movie of that, put it on Broadway, then make a movie adaptation of the musical.
Brooks would be shackeled to that project for a century! HA HA HA HAHAHAHAH
I hear they’re making a Doogie Howser M.D. movie.
I can’t believe no one has mentioned a SBTB movie.
Saved By The Bell: The Let’s See Who’s Managed to eke out a living, and Who’s Making Porn to Hold Onto Their House
Title too long, no?
I hear they’re making a Small Wonder feature movie. I hope they explain how no one noticed that chick was a fucking robot.
Really NPH? Who’ll play you?
Stone, have it star Dakota Fanning and you’ve got yourself a hit!
God, I wanted to fuck Harriet the next door nighbor so badly!
dat gurl een schmall wonduh wuss uh row-bit? fakkin-ay! dat schplainsh uh foo teengs…
^In ref to Stone’s comment
Doogie Howser will be played by Zac Efron
I’m holding out for a live action Rainbow Brite.
Zac can’t. He’s a cartoon.
The Mighty Fek’lhr wonders why we only emasculate Jason Bateman with the "Teen Wolf" title? Is it because his sister was in Family Ties with Michael J. Fox? The Mighty One guesses that having to put up with that yIntagh Skippy is penance enough to absolve his name of Teen Wolf stature.
…
DOR SHO GHA!
GRRR…AMERICAN GLADIATORS!
Zac Effron as me?
That would be epic!
I’m sure I’d have to give him a few private coaching sessions, though.
Fek, He was Teen Wolf 2
I think Effron is even gayer than you, NPH. He’d probably teach you a thing or two.
Koru- GEEK CHECK!
Oh, we got you something fierce!
(I know he was teen wolf 2, but between him and MJF we tease Bateman like a trillion times as much for teen wolf it seems)
Yeah, we only tease Michale J Fox about the Parkinson’s. Get with the program, Koru.
Well, it’s because whenever we tease MJF, he gets twitchy. It’s disconcerting.
effron could so play "zelda" in a live-action movie.
Chodin: You mean Link, right?
chodin: your avatars are cracking my shit up the last few days…
I am with the program, you kintaboodles. (I can make up words too)
Kintaboodles? How’d you know my Frat nickname?
I’m just hungover. And a geek, apparently.
"girl you know it’s, girl you know it’s, girl you know it’s"……"no", i actually meant that he could play "zelda". sad, huh?
ay, keentabooblesch, eetsch me, fwekkelkwotch!
LAZYTOWN: THE MOVIE!
And I’m cool with that. The geek part, not being hungover. I really really wish I wasn’t hungover. Last night was our office Xmas party, open bar.
Means I’ve got more Crown in me than Prince Charles after he and whatsherface get kinky.
keentabooblesch hash seen a bebbe peek shuck a guise deek bafor.
Koru, we find ourselves to be completely disgusted.
Ricky! What happens at Phi Gamma, stays in Phi Gamma!
fak! ah jusht gat un email dat sez da cookie wesappy cosht fahv hunder dollahsch! wuh da fak?
HRH, so nice to see you. How is that bionic hip I designed for you?
dat englisch chick talksh fun-e.
Ricky: thaaass fok’in naasteh. deeya haf t’breen tha op?
oh hell, I forgot if you make fun of the Royals, the shrew shows up.
We are also appalled by how many of you are using alter egos!
Manners, Ricky. "That ROYAL english chick talks funny."
perhaps ‘they’ need ‘thier’ royal english muffin toasted?
i’m large in germany guys
So my Enlargement ray is in Germany, wwbd?
Hollywood = Retards
A.D = Genious
therefore;
No A.D. movie >=(
no, no, it’s not pat.
Koru, if you have a problem with us, please air out your grievances.
But please keep it civilized. And remember, that while there is a Royal Navy and Royal Air Force, there is no Koru Navy or Koru Air Force.
"girl you know it’s-girl you know it’s-girl you know it’s…"
Who is this "bne_pro" supposed to be? I smell an alter ego!
And it’s spelled "their", you cretin.
I’m in love girl, I’m so in love girl,
I’m just in love girl, and this is true.
Who is this "bne_pro" supposed to be? I smell an alter ego!
Shouldn’t that have said "We smell an alter ego"?
Aw crap, I think I scared her off.
Aww.. I thought I’d be the only Queen here.
forgive me, your highnessness… the dyslexia takes over sometimes.
Hasslehoff’s a queen?
BananaHammock, you forgot about me, too.
I wish Jacktion!!
I meant I’m a queen. See, I’m a homosexual. Get it?
True Story: Hasslehoff loves foot-longs. I saw it on a video. He was rolling around the floor with it. He kept trying to put it in his mouth.
Oh, ok.
How’s the cock tasting nowadays?
Good, I hope.
New post, Klingons!
Now that I’m older and wiser, I question the motives of the dad on Small Wonder. I’m willing to bet that the whole "I built us a daughter" story was cover after his wife caught him "working" in the basement. It’s much easier to program a robot not to ‘tell’, if you know what I mean…
But why not make it a teenage daughter?
But why not make it a teenage daughter?
Because teen girls are whores. WHORES! (begins crying and runs away)
Why are you wearing a womens wig?
I was told it was a "bob"
Why don’t you give my mother a little "Afternoon Delight"?
Maybe I could put in her her brownie!
I really didn’t need to know that.
