  • jflowers45, on 07/01/2008, -1/+4Interesting that another one is talking about it before official announcement...hype plan perhaps?
    • pb3623, on 07/02/2008, -0/+5This news just in: "Bob Loblaw Lobs Law Bomb"
  • Bagrad, on 07/01/2008, -1/+92Michael: We've got a picture of you with Saddam Hussein.
    George Sr.: I thought that was the guy who played the Soup Nazi. I told him how much I liked his work.”
  • AtomicSpike, on 07/02/2008, -1/+97Just one movie? They need to turn this show into a series of films...with a new movie premiering every week.
    • acs12798, on 07/02/2008, -2/+40I think your on to something. Im thinking roughly 42 minutes a film
      • kiiwii, on 07/02/2008, -4/+4you're onto

        and, the episodes were half an hour (~22 minutes without commercials) not an hour.

        an hour would work for me, too, though.
      • tongrhj, on 07/02/2008, -3/+220 minutes, actually.
    • iNezy13, on 07/02/2008, -7/+2and every film will have the awesome intro theme song at the beginning

      and that guy will say "it's arrested development!!"
  • pitchblack16, on 07/02/2008, -3/+2ouuuuu cant wait for this one, gonna be hilarious
  • akohut, on 07/02/2008, -1/+45No touching!
    • Dimbleby, on 07/02/2008, -1/+7NO TOUCHING! (little black girl slams nightstick on table)
    • acevoncash, on 07/02/2008, -0/+4you've gotta take me back to prison michael!

      More touching!
  • ColorBlind, on 07/02/2008, -30/+1you can milk anything with nipples greg.
  • leva, on 07/02/2008, -3/+5Finally some good news!
  • elmontsmilitia, on 07/02/2008, -1/+4Yeah, I bet they are trying to gauge how much excitement all these confirmations are getting, because its not everyday a show with low ratings (even though it was a great show) gets a movie.
  • HatterMadigan, on 07/02/2008, -2/+42Annyong?
  • HillerMylife, on 07/24/2008, -5/+6It sucks that the show got canceled, but it really ended with all its loose ends tied up. I hope they don't screw up the film.
    • socketman, on 07/02/2008, -0/+2They had such great writers, I am sure they'll be able to work out something awesome.
  • tr0y85, on 07/02/2008, -2/+39I'm afraid I just blue myself.
    • Grumby24, on 07/02/2008, -0/+3You just want to see young boy's Linuses.
    • nicpedersen, on 07/02/2008, -0/+3oh Tobias, You blowhard...
    • thebellmaster1x, on 07/02/2008, -0/+4...
      ...
      ...There's gotta be a better way to say that.
  • tattoojoo, on 07/02/2008, -2/+4please be good... please be good... please be good... /inner thoughts
  • Badandy127, on 07/02/2008, -2/+46It seems as though Mr. Tambor prematurely shot his wad, and if this movie thing backfires, he's going to have quite a sticky situation on his hands.
    • rjc5056, on 07/02/2008, -0/+9Badandy, you blowhard!
    • coloneltcb, on 07/02/2008, -0/+3finally, a good comment that incorporates a quote in context. Well done Badandy...
  • hrc1983, on 07/02/2008, -1/+31Oh I can just taste those meaty leading man parts in my mouth
  • shauntacular, on 07/02/2008, -1/+30Analrapist
    • MattBot5000, on 07/02/2008, -0/+9It wasn't the pronunciation that scared me.
  • Doznufus, on 07/02/2008, -1/+20Still excited for a movie....but what I really wants is the series back in my life!
  • HxChris91, on 07/02/2008, -7/+4"but hopefully next week the kid who played Annyong will insist the movie's bound for production."
    I'm surprised that those of you who say you love the series don't know who annyong is! Annyong was the kid that Lucille adopted who later dissapeared and returned on the final episode in a dramtic plot twist!
    • kiiwii, on 07/02/2008, -1/+8I've never seen anyone say they don't know who he is.

      How could you not know who Annyong is?
      • HxChris91, on 07/02/2008, -0/+1There was about five people above my comment who didn't know who he was... check it.
    • scaliacheese, on 07/02/2008, -0/+0He returned before that. In the walls.
      • HxChris91, on 07/02/2008, -0/+1that wasn't completely necessary to point out to describe who he was...
    • nicpedersen, on 07/02/2008, -0/+5Hopefully he gets a better part than "Guy-who-orders-strike-on-Pearl-Harbor"
  • kolop1, on 07/02/2008, -31/+1Who cares.

    • LordStandley, on 07/02/2008, -0/+13I wish I could stab you with a comment.
  • bjames87, on 07/02/2008, -3/+4Him?
  • RATM4EVER, on 07/02/2008, -0/+30WHERE THE ***** ARE MY HARD BOILED EGGS?!
  • jboswell2000, on 07/02/2008, -6/+0In spite of the fact that Tambor is a $cientologist, I'm very excited about this movie!!
  • LordStandley, on 07/02/2008, -1/+5"if mother see's this she will blow, a cow!"
  • dronkmunk, on 07/02/2008, -0/+1Hey now!
  • neveroddoreven, on 07/02/2008, -0/+15CMON!!!! tell that to the guy with the five thousand dollar suit
  • ir1337, on 07/02/2008, -0/+36I'd better post this to the Bob Loblaw Law Blog.
  • iPood, on 07/02/2008, -7/+5And here comes the onslaught of AD quotes...COME ON!
  • woxidu, on 07/02/2008, -0/+24Then Michael recalled Buster throwing what he thought was her favorite toy at what he thought was her car.
  • everlast88, on 07/02/2008, -1/+6who cares? try everybody.

    they need to make this, to the producers: "COME ON!"
  • Rekutyn, on 07/02/2008, -0/+23These aren't tricks Michael. They're illusions.
    A trick is something a whore does for money---or candy.
  • 4LeggedtriPod, on 07/02/2008, -0/+19Soon, George Michael went to Ann's to try to win her back. But her Uncle Paul told him that Ann had moved in with her boyfriend. He also mentioned that we all only had three more weeks on earth, and that fossils were just something the Jews buried in 1924.
  • everlast88, on 07/02/2008, -0/+4its seems that i prematurely shot my wad on what was initially supposed to be a dry run now it seems i have a bit of a mess on my hands
  • madhouseradio, on 07/02/2008, -1/+21STEVE HOLT!
  • adml_shake, on 07/02/2008, -0/+14As a nevernude I've longed for the day when our condition was told or even mentioned on the big screen.
  • Fleagleman, on 07/02/2008, -4/+0If people actually go and see the new "X Files" movie, then I'll have faith in this project. Once a tv show is out of the public's eye, we'll see if it still has enough pull at the box office. After all, shows are cancelled due to lack of viewers (a smaller group of dedicated followers does not keep a show on the air, people..see "Firefly"). What makes them think that they can grab the viewers that never watched the tv show and get them into theatres at 10 bucks a pop?
    • bjs3171, on 07/02/2008, -0/+1it WILL be a movie with Jason Bateman, David Cross, and "that kid from Juno and Superbad"...

      plus, the fact that this is based off a show doesn't have to be the sole point to market off of. people DO go see movies that aren't based off something else.
    • thebellmaster1x, on 07/02/2008, -0/+2What makes you think that it's the viewers' fault AD got cancelled? Fox had a habit of moving the show's timeslot without telling anybody.
      cf. David Cross's rant in the Season 2 DVD's outtakes.
  • pahool, on 07/02/2008, -0/+17Even if it means taking a chubby, I will suck it up...
    ...and see this movie!
  • socketman, on 07/02/2008, -0/+8I am so wearing cutoffs to the premiere ...
  • teethandeyes, on 07/02/2008, -0/+11Oh man, David Cross's character on that show is one of the best and most hilarious characters of all-time
  • alexkball, on 07/02/2008, -0/+20Like this article means anything to the guy in the $6,000 suit. Come on!!!
  • jboswell2000, on 07/02/2008, -3/+0So apparently he denied it in February, so maybe he has changed his ways...of course, Will Smith also denies it...probably because it seems to be career suicide. Nevertheless, I tentatively stand corrected.
  • rjc5056, on 07/02/2008, -0/+5This is just purely a social call. You know, just two adults gettin' a stew on, man.
    • theShadow51, on 07/02/2008, -1/+1I don't know what that means but it sounds disturbing!......classic
  • mlvassallo, on 07/02/2008, -0/+3The girlfriend has never experienced this show. We started watching it last weekend. I forgot just how amazing it was. Bring on the movie!
  • HeatVision, on 07/02/2008, -0/+1I wouldn't get too excited until there's a script and a production deal. As it stands right now there's a bunch of cast members who would like to do it, which hasn't changed since the series ended. No script, no funding.
    • acevoncash, on 07/02/2008, -0/+1there was talk of indy 4 among george and steve and harrison for a good 6-7 years before the script showed up and it got greenlit. If the cast is on board all they need is ron howard to be on board. His name is big enough to get the film made. just like george lucas and steve speilberg were big enough names to get indy 4 made. You put ron howards name on it, it will get greenlit. Also a script won't be hard, there are already plenty of writers from the show they just have to call on to do it. And I'm sure they would. its cash.
  • acevoncash, on 07/02/2008, -1/+1They better bring back the MR F for the film. she was hot.
  • sx66gns, on 07/02/2008, -7/+1I don't get it , I watched five minutes and could not stand it - what's the big deal about this show?
    • acevoncash, on 07/02/2008, -0/+7It was intelligent comedy. Lots of dry humor, TONS of call backs. In the third season they were still pulling jokes from the first. Tons of different story lines that all tie in. The show was ingenious, and funny at the same time.
    • iPood, on 07/02/2008, -0/+2The problem is, you watched five minutes of it, and it was probably some random episode so you didn't get any of the jokes. Go on hulu.com, watch the episodes in order starting with the pilot...if you still don't like it, then you would probably really enjoy Two and a Half Men.
    • humansky, on 07/02/2008, -0/+1When the show was originally on Fox, I missed the first few episodes and tried to follow along. At first I thought it was stupid and boring, then I bought the DVD, watched the whole thing from the beginning and absolutely loved it.
    • theShadow51, on 07/02/2008, -0/+0Probably the most brilliant comedy show ever written...i'm sorry for you if you don't enjoy it, it was a gem.
  • veijeri, on 07/02/2008, -1/+1The guy who plays Buster was at the same bar as me the other week, but I didn't find out until the next day ;_; I totally would have had a drink with him.
  • chetosbourne, on 07/02/2008, -1/+4BEES?
  • repmekevets, on 07/02/2008, -0/+4interview with bateman and cross.. hilarious.

    • scaliacheese, on 07/02/2008, -0/+2It's the Charlie Brown music, fyi.
  • TwwIX, on 07/02/2008, -0/+8*does the celebratory version of the chicken dance
