Stop Toying With My Emotions, Jason Bateman February 5, 2008

Well it seems that Jason Bateman has been talking up the Arrested Development movie negotiations all around town. He recently spoke to Kristin Dos Santos of E! Entertainment about the movie talks:

“I can confirm that a round of sniffing has started,” Bateman says. “Any talk is targeting a poststrike situation, of course. I think, as always, that it’s a question of whether the people with the money are willing to give our leader, Mitch Hurwitz, what he deserves for his participation. And I can speak for the cast when I say our fingers are crossed.”

And I can speak for your fans when I say our fingers are crossed but we’re also not holding our breaths because it’s not cool to tease people and it would be too painful to deal with crushed hopes on this one and you really shouldn’t say things like this and then flake out because it hurts. It hurts and then people cry. Okay? So you better not be fucking around, Mr. Bateman.
