Still alive ?!

"There's a new daddy in town !"

Hi everyone, these days I really miss Arrested Development and I'm thinking about get back to basics like watch again the 3 seasons and make this blog alive again !

Now I'm here !

Hum...well ok you don't believe right now but you'll see.

But I have to give you an explanation about the reasons of the lack of updates. It's simple :
The news are still the same !

And I was like "okay it's not my priority to work on the blog..."
So I apologize about that and I'm back for real and for good.

And now let's see the latest news :

The first is a news for the website TvGawker and Will Arnett is talking :
Arrested Development movie updates?
We're in the midst of Running Wilde and we're unable to focus on anything else, but it is something we plan on doing. I can't really speak to Mitch's timetable but I would suspect that it's going to be sooner rather than later now, I will say that.

David Cross said in an interview that he knows the storyline and it's "awesome."
Yeah there's some really funny stuff, some really funny ideas being kicked around. It's Mitch's call on how anything goes.

Can you give us a hint? A taste? Something?
I really can't, it would be far too premature. But if it goes in the direction Mitch is suggesting, it'll be super hilarious.

It seems that the AD's movie is still alive ! You want another proof ? Let see a declaration of Mitch Hurwitz from AVClub :

AVC: So what is the status of the film? It’s the inescapable question.

MH: It is my absolute next priority. I’ve said we’re about halfway through it, but I’m including a lot of the stories as part of that half. It’s the next thing I do as soon as I get a breath from [Running Wilde]. If it gets picked up for a back nine, I’ll have people in place to do this and I can go finish that. It is my biggest creative priority. It’s very frustrating I haven’t had time to do it. I’ve been having to do other things, but it’s time and money. It’s part of, you know, the thing I’ve built for myself here. This house of cards. I have to say, people think I’m more successful than I am, and I appreciate that. I think. I don’t know if I care I, guess. But I’m a working guy. I’m not joking, though, if I had Cocoon, all bets would be off.


Keep in touch with the blog, I'll talk about Running Wilde and the Arrested Development Doc.

See you soon, really soon !

Year One - Cera & Cross



Year One with Michael Cera and David Cross is in theather since June 19th and the critics aren't very good. I've made for you a selection of critics from the website Metacritic.com. The Metascore is 37 out of 100, that's mean "Generally Negative Reviews".

80 The New York Times Manohla Dargis
A thoroughly, sometimes gaggingly broad and sly conceptual laugh-in.

75 San Francisco Chronicle Mick LaSalle
Year One has one joke, but it's a good one, played for many variations over the course of an often very funny comedy.

67 Entertainment Weekly Owen Gleiberman
This is just silliness run mildly wild.

63 Baltimore Sun Michael Sragow
At best it's a bit like Mel Brooks' "The History of the World Part I" (except Ramis stops somewhere in Genesis); at worst it's like a Scary Movie-type parody of John Huston's "The Bible."

50 Variety Ronnie Scheib
Lacks seismic guffaws but elicits many mild smiles.

50 USA Today Claudia Puig
The humor, largely centered around bodily functions and bathroom habits, is almost exclusively sophomoric.

42 The Onion (A.V. Club) Josh Modell
Year One isn't dreadful; it just isn't nearly as funny as it hopes to be.

40 The Hollywood Reporter Frank Scheck
A lot of comedic talent founders in this new Harold Ramis comedy that doesn't exactly recall his glory days of "Caddyshack" and "Groundhog Day."

38 New York Post Kyle Smith
Its script isn't worth the papyrus it's inscribed on.

33 Christian Science Monitor Peter Rainer
The people who made Year One seem to think that all you have to do to make a hit comedy is get a bunch of jokesters together. But where are the jokes?

30 Washington Post Michael O'Sullivan
A lowbrow, only fitfully amusing comedy.

25 Boston Globe Ty Burr
Any good will the movie generates, though, is grated right back off by Black, whose obnoxiousness has lost whatever charm it once possessed.

20 New York Daily News Joe Neumaier
During all of the film’s oh-so-long 97 minutes, Year One, barely earns a snicker.

12 Premiere Robert Calvert
We loved this movie the first three times we saw it, when it was called "Life of Brian," "Wholly Moses," and "History of the World Part 1."

0 LA Weekly Robert Wilonsky
Unbearably painful from shrugging start to outtakes-laden finish, Harold Ramis’ half-assed, hare-brained return to writing and directing makes Mel Brooks’ equally muddled, soporific "History of the World, Part 1" look downright majestic by comparison.

Interview : David Cross & Michael Cera talks about the movie !



In the MTV Movies Blog, on June 15, David Cross gives us a really short interview about the movie. There is no real news in that interview, Tobias you don't blow hard this time !

“I know what most people know,” Cross said, “which is there’s definitely a movie planned. A script has been ordered. Everyone’s on board to do it.”


“I think they’re just working out the deals — which, you got eleven cast members and writers and producers and all that — so I think that’ll take a little time, as it usually does. And hopefully we’ll be shooting something before the decade’s out.”


“There was an overall story that I’m not at privilege to tell you what [Mitch is] working on. The script could change from that point. I will tell you it’s a f–king great idea and I’m very excited about it. It really does seem like a logical next step from the show to the movie. If that idea is followed through, I think it’s pretty cool.”

On Collider.com Michael Cera also talks about the movie, but once again there is not big information in this interview, just a point of view...

“I think it will. Yeah. I don’t see why it wouldn’t. I don’t think it will happen for awhile.”


I then said a lot of the cast members have said Mitch is working on the script and maybe you’d be shooting later this year.


Michael then replied, “But there is no rush. I think he should take his time. I know it means a lot to Mitch. There is no rush, really. I don’t think.”
