Sweet news!

Michael Cera finally got off his high horse and has signed on to the Arrested Development movie.

That means, it is arrested no longer.

The entire cast is on board, Fox Searchlight is backing the project, Mitchell Hurwitz is writing the script and Ron Howard is slated to direct the film which could begin production by the end of this year.

After our afternoon spent witnessing the jousting of Joseph Gordon-Levitt and Michael Cera, we hit Main Street to see what Park City is all about.

On our way in for dinner at Bistro 412, we passed one of the largest men we’d ever seen wearing a sheepskin hat. Seriously, the guy was gigantor. We were so dumbstruck but his massiveness, we almost didn’t notice it was John Cleese, comic genius.

There's a rumble brewing in the Sundance snow.

As we told you earlier, we had the good fortune of running into our fantasy man, Joseph Gordon-Levitt, en route to the premiere of his short film, Sparks. The film stars Carla Gugino and Eric Stolz, is an adaptation of an Elmore Leonard short story about a seductive failed rock star who may or may not have burned her own house down.

Sherwood Schwartz, who we can thank for creating The Brady Bunch, is teaming up with his son, Lloyd Schwartz, for a big screen adaptation of Gilligan’s Island, which is also his brain child.

So who’s jumping aboard for a three hour tour?

They’re hoping Michael Cera will be donning that famous red shirt and white hat as Gilligan and Beyonce would step in as sexy movie star Ginger.

Suffering under the delusion that a soundtrack is a movie, Nick and Norah’s Infinite Playlist has been done many times before, only better. Back in the 90s, this was a film set in Seattle with lovelorn grunge rockers pouring out their emotions like French Roast to songs by Chris Cornell and Billy Corgan. In the 80s, it was every movie John Hughes made.

F. Gary Gray's latest effort, Law Abiding Citizen, starring Jamie Foxx and Gerard Butler, is a knockout! Exhilirating, wry and breathcatchingly paced, it's a stellar accomplishment for everyone involved. Hell yeah you should see it!

Scott Hicks, the director of Shine, and Clive Owen teamed up for this gloriously beautiful if underwhelming project. It's not that it's bad, it's just not that memorable and with such supreme talent attached, I was hoping for and expecting a lot more.

Oh, Diablo Cody, why'd you have to do it? I love you so long...and then you made this. Megan Fox does what she always does, she looks hot. At least there's that. Sophmoric, unfunny and obsessively idiosyncratic, it's a painful movie going experience.

Chocolate and peanut butter. Spaghetti and meatballs. Bobcat Goldthwait and profanity. Two great tastes that taste great together. Gone is the Bobcat of the Police Academy movies and in his stead is a fantastic writer-director who's able to orchestrate the most brilliantly, hilarious vulgarity imaginable. World's Greatest Dad is a fantastic dark comedy (very dark) that features Robin Williams' best performance since Good Will Hunting. See it!
