Crap.

I officially give up.

Well, enough time has passed that even the man behind the show's central player — frazzled and frustrated Michael Bluth — is starting to think that the time for an "Arrested" movie has come and gone.

"Perhaps that ship has sailed," Jason Bateman told MTV News at the Toronto International Film Festival while promoting the George Clooney-starring "Up in the Air."

Bateman's cautious declaration is the latest in a year's long string of cast statements about the "Arrested" film stretching...

...

It's all gotten so confusing that even Bateman isn't exactly sure what's going on. Just moments after saying that the ship has sailed, he said that series creator Mitch Hurwitz is actually knee-deep in the "Arrested" writing process.

 

"[Mitch] just had a very busy television season," Bateman said. "Now that that has finished, he's intensely writing the movie. My guess is he's halfway done with it. My guess is we'd be shooting it in eight, nine, 10 months and then it would be out six or seven months later."

Part of me wants this to happen, but the show ended in an acceptable way, I think. I feel the same way when talk of a Wire movie comes up. I'd like to see the characters again, but it could hurt the legacy of the older stuff. Just like Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles 2 and Mighty Ducks 3. (Just kidding)
