  • keyshark, on 06/25/2008, -2/+102That just made my week.
    • mannythegreat, on 06/25/2008, -0/+28This just made my 2009.
      • scottsutherland, on 06/26/2008, -6/+0It's actually been in planning for a long time now. But sadly, don't get your hopes up, because it may very well end up being a documentary-style film about the show.

        Either way, I purchased www.developmentarrested.com a long time ago as a reasonable investment to sell in 2009 :-)
        • morphinapg, on 06/26/2008, -0/+3you should put hardcore porn or something up there that would actually give them a reason to buy that. Right now they'd probably just say, "meh, at least it's related, we'll just leave it alone"
    • jmreid, on 06/25/2008, -0/+28C'MON!
    • CCB0x45, on 06/25/2008, -1/+5Where is badwithcomputer with a quote?
      • jmlambe, on 06/25/2008, -0/+19Yeah, the guy wearing the $4,000 suit is holding the elevator for the guy who doesn't make that in four months. Come on!!
    • formergthing, on 06/25/2008, -0/+18I just blue myself.
    • phantom_mullet, on 06/25/2008, -0/+19Taste the happy, Michael!

    • matt3454, on 06/25/2008, -0/+15My real name is....

      Hello
    • brainboy77, on 06/26/2008, -1/+15"Finally I have exacted my grandfather's revenge." Classic.
    • Vindexus, on 06/26/2008, -1/+11Will some PLEASE tell this insufferable child!!
    • abrasion, on 06/26/2008, -0/+5Annyong
    • quomen, on 06/26/2008, -1/+4I love Anyong. Too bad they were cut short and couldn't build his story line a bit more. However, i'm Korean, and it irks me that even anyong pronounces his name wrong.
      • PullingTeeth, on 06/26/2008, -0/+5Serious? What's it supposed to be?
        • Pssdoff, on 06/26/2008, -0/+3'To pronounce it correctly, I would have to rip out your tongue.'
        • jezzman, on 07/04/2008, -0/+0geez that's really a mouthful...complicated language that Korean
  • AmyVernon, on 06/25/2008, -0/+17woo-hoo!
  • Fangsinmybeard, on 06/25/2008, -59/+1Not a great show to go to the big screen.
    • whazup911, on 06/25/2008, -1/+9what what might you suggest instead? American Idol?
      • Maddpaky, on 06/25/2008, -5/+2The sad thing is, an American Idol movie would probably be the biggest box office hit ever. It's depressing.
        • bluebettle, on 06/25/2008, -0/+14You mean From Justin to Kelly? Yeah, that movie was a huge success.
    • Yakovzoya, on 06/25/2008, -2/+11What about "A Shot At Love With Tila Tequila: The Movie?"
    • warlax27, on 06/25/2008, -1/+9YOU STFU!
    • JustinHopewell, on 06/25/2008, -0/+17Seriously, man? Have you watched the show? In my opinion, Arrested Development was one of, if not *the* best comedy series ever to air on American television. The writing, acting, characters, music, pacing, narration, EVERYTHING was top notch. It was begging to be made into a feature. My only disappointment in this is that it will probably only run two hours, when I could stand to watch ten!

      Ideally, I'd love to see HBO pick up a new season and sandwich it between Curb Your Enthusiasm and another great show.
      • socketman, on 06/26/2008, -0/+2That would be great, Curb, AD, and FOTC
        • JustinHopewell, on 06/26/2008, -0/+1Totally... don't know how I forgot FOTC, probably up in my top five favorite tv shows in this era of my life.
    • vagtka, on 06/26/2008, -0/+5***** you!

    • mywhitenoise, on 06/25/2008, -11/+18I just want to see my kids.
      • stalzdiggity, on 06/26/2008, -2/+26i cant believe you got so many diggs. It's...

        i just want my kids back
  • mannythegreat, on 06/25/2008, -2/+110George Sr.: I don't have time for your magic tricks.
    Gob: Illusions, Dad! You don't have time for my illusions!
    • Maddpaky, on 06/25/2008, -0/+59But still, where'd the lighter fluid come from?
      • CCB0x45, on 06/25/2008, -2/+27You know a magician can never reveal his.... I SUNK IT, at least I think I sunk it, I blew it up and its not there anymore.
        • Maddpaky, on 06/25/2008, -1/+32It ain't easy being white. It ain't easy being brown.
          All this pressure to be bright. I got children all over town.
        • presidentjapan, on 06/26/2008, -0/+6Michael, I've gotta be in that Poof!
    • jmlambe, on 06/25/2008, -0/+15her?
      • mroberts, on 06/25/2008, -4/+9It's as anne as the egg on Plain's face.
        • stalzdiggity, on 06/26/2008, -0/+7it's as anne as the nose on plains face
    • jer21, on 06/25/2008, -1/+30Illusion Michael...a trick is something a whore does for money...or candy.
    • Xondar, on 06/26/2008, -2/+8She's a prostitute. She turns illusions -- I mean tricks -- for money!
  • abran1984, on 06/25/2008, -1/+109The best show to ever fail on television; I'm so glad they're continuing it on the big-screen
    • punkcat, on 06/25/2008, -0/+24i love the show, but funny thing is i never saw it, let alone advertised, when it was actually on.

      i blame fox for the lack of promotion.



      • Cayfox, on 06/26/2008, -0/+3Fox have let quite a few good shows slip quietly into the night that way. Ironic, since they have the most annoyingly in-your-face in-show advertising of any network.
      • AdmiralAcbar, on 06/26/2008, -9/+1I'm going to be honest. I didn't like this show. I never once found it funny, during the three episodes (the first three to be aired) that I saw.

        It just wasn't funny.
      • Trots, on 06/26/2008, -1/+1AD was put in a bad timeframe as well. I never actually started watching the show until it cancelled and CBC started showing it at 5:30. Then I bought the DVDs.
    • josereyes0, on 06/26/2008, -0/+1I would say it's the best show, period. The writing is phenomenal at worst.
  • ocharry, on 06/25/2008, -0/+22Just delighted my afternoon
    • IsangMahal, on 06/26/2008, -0/+4I heard it's being financed by Will Ferrel. It will be shot in Mexico and dubbed in Spanish.
  • steger, on 06/25/2008, -1/+180I’m afraid I just blue myself.
    • Maddpaky, on 06/25/2008, -0/+59Oh Tobias, you blow hard.
      • CCB0x45, on 06/25/2008, -1/+40Who wants another banger in the mouth?
        • Maddpaky, on 06/25/2008, -0/+39Ah yes. The Bob Loblaw Law Blog. You sir, are quite a mouthful.
        • petebot, on 06/25/2008, -0/+36Oh, I'm sorry, I forgot that in America you call it a sausage in the mouth.
        • NatGen, on 06/26/2008, -0/+18We just call it a sausage.
      • viserov, on 06/25/2008, -1/+17I'm suppose I'm, uh, buy-curious.
    • WasabiBomb, on 06/25/2008, -0/+30There's got to be a better way to say that.
    • viserov, on 06/25/2008, -0/+27Well, yes, but I'm afraid I prematurely shot my wad on what was supposed to be a dry run, if you will, so now I'm afraid I have something of a mess on my hands.
    • antiorblkflag9, on 06/25/2008, -1/+9Out of context....
    • CapeKid, on 06/26/2008, -0/+12If you would just record yourself for one day...
    • matthewschnoor, on 06/26/2008, -0/+13Steger, I will be your wingman. Even if it means me taking a chubby, I will just suck it up!
  • wayyy, on 06/25/2008, -0/+51Man, I loved AD. If only more people would have watched it and discovered the glory that is the Bluth family.
  • Inflammo, on 06/25/2008, -0/+17Please. Please happen.
  • CCB0x45, on 06/25/2008, -0/+123COME ON!

    • jicon, on 06/25/2008, -0/+31Pfft... yeah, yeah.... like the guy in the $7500 pants is gonna pay ten bucks to watch this in a theatre...

    • blate, on 06/25/2008, -0/+15Arrested Development quotes are not generic.
      • Maver1c, on 06/27/2008, -0/+1eh, on digg they have become generic...but i dont mind.
    • phantom_mullet, on 06/25/2008, -0/+12You think you can pull a stunt like that on the guy with the $8,000 pants?! COME ON!
    • saisumimen, on 06/26/2008, -3/+5@NoZb2k

      Great, another douchebag trying to be "meta".
  • default45, on 06/25/2008, -2/+40Best show on TV, that no one watched..
    • timpoke8, on 06/26/2008, -0/+10Actually, the "best show on TV" will suffice.
  • Roger, on 06/25/2008, -0/+88The zero hour, Michael. It's the end of the line.
    I'm the firstborn. Sick of playing second fiddle. Always third in line for everything. Tired of finishing fourth. Being the fifth wheel. There are six things I'm mad about, and I'm taking over.

    MARRY ME!

  • Marijuana, on 06/25/2008, -14/+40AD was up there with Seinfeld.
    • Maddpaky, on 06/25/2008, -2/+85AD was better than Seinfeld.
      • foofightrs777, on 06/25/2008, -1/+31Come on! AD is master of Sienfeld's domain.
      • Marijuana, on 06/25/2008, -4/+9I guess the only difference was that Seinfeld's platform was on NBC and Arrested Development was on Fox. Smart shows don't exactly fair well on that network..
      • MyDiggIsBig, on 06/26/2008, -1/+2they both amazing. seinfeld movie?
    • Trots, on 06/26/2008, -0/+1Jerry's standup really wasn't funny. Why do you park on the driveway and drive on the parkway? It's backwards! hahahahohoho. Lame.

      I give all credit to Larry David for the show's success. CYE was pretty good too.
  • wocheck, on 06/25/2008, -1/+43movie!!! i want the series back!!!!...

    i miss Gob's imitation of a chicken i hope it will be in the movie also :D

    • phantom_mullet, on 06/25/2008, -0/+13Now, now. One thing at a time. When (not if) the movie does well, those losers at Fox will see the error of their ways.

  • jezzman, on 06/25/2008, -0/+6Will they be getting Maeby Funke involved in the production?
    • foofightrs777, on 06/25/2008, -0/+13You'll have to get in touch w/ Tantamount Studios for that info.
  • Nickooo, on 06/25/2008, -1/+128Gob: My God, what is this feeling?
    Michael: Well, you know the-the feeling that you’re... that you’re feeling is-is what many of us call “a feeling.”
    Gob: But it’s not like envy, or even hungry.
    Michael: Could it be love?
    Gob: I know what an erection feels like, Michael. No, it’s the opposite. It’s... it’s like my heart is getting hard.
    • wafflepiano, on 07/22/2008, -0/+1If you feel anything moving down there, it's the bird.
  • wushi, on 06/25/2008, -3/+5it would be cool if the movie turned out to be presented as "rushes" of the film mae.B pitched to ron howard in the series finale...

  • whiteknives, on 06/25/2008, -1/+27I've made a huge mistake...

  • jerrycurley, on 06/25/2008, -18/+3Gee, a rumor confirmed by a rumor.

    I am as big a fan of the show (well, the first two seasons anyway) as anyone, but this will be a disaster. Both critically and financially. 3 years is too long a layoff.
  • allenobendorf, on 06/25/2008, -0/+48Who wants to wear cutoffs to opening night?
    • Maddpaky, on 06/25/2008, -0/+34How come I didn't see you at the convention?

  • Wolfie351, on 06/25/2008, -22/+1If no one watched the tv show (ratings) how do they expect a mass audience to pay for the movie? Next thing you know there will be a Jericho movie.
    • diaverde238, on 06/25/2008, -0/+9Hopefully because guys like me - who never watched the show while it was on TV but got into it later - would gladly fork over $10 to see it.
      • libertao, on 06/26/2008, -0/+5$10? I'll see it twice to get more jokes the 2nd time around for sure.
      • diaverde238, on 06/26/2008, -0/+2You're lucky to live somewhere so cheap. In Destin, everything is expensive.
    • lordtyros, on 06/25/2008, -0/+9Key difference: Arrested Development is actually good.
    • Wolfie351, on 06/26/2008, -2/+2No argument from me, but my point remains unchanged
    • Lister169, on 06/26/2008, -0/+10Well if the movie tanks at least there's always money in the banana stand.

  • diggB, on 06/25/2008, -8/+10[flashback to car ride]

    Young George Sr.: Will you kids keep it down in back?!

    [Car hits pedestrian, whose secretly prosthetic arm is severed and lands on bonnet of car. Screams from Bluth siblings.]

    Young George Sr.: Oh my God! This innocent man's arm has come off! This would never have happened if we hadn't had to go out for milk!

    J. Walter Weatherman: And that's why you always leave a note.
    • MattBot5000, on 06/25/2008, -0/+14Was that what that was about? I thought he was trying to get us off of dairy
    • NatGen, on 06/26/2008, -0/+7You killed him that time you left the door open with the air conditioning on!

  • foofightrs777, on 06/25/2008, -0/+44Here he comes… Here comes John Wayne. I’m not gonna cry about my pa. I’m gonna build me an airport. Put my name on it.
    Why Michael? So you can fly away from your feelings? You can keep ‘em bottled up but sometimes they will come out in the most unexpected…
