pirate dan and i have decided that jason bateman rocks. as evidence, we present arrested development and dodgeball. as further evidence, i present starsky & hutch, but dan hasn’t seen that flick yet. though i intend to make him do so soon, because in addition to the talented mr. bateman, it has the deliciously sleazy vince vaaaaauuuuuugggggghhhnnn (girly sigh).

jason bateman rocks because he’s a really good actor. in arrested development, dan says, he’s a brilliant straight man and comedic actor. i, who have no theatre anything wherefrom to speak knowledgably except a few lingering choruses left over from senior year pippin 0, simply say that he makes me laugh, over and over and over again.

let’s burn the banana stand!

in dodgeball, well …. he’s just really funny. trust us on that one.

and in starsky & hutch, he’s evil vince vaughn’s sidekick. or he’s vince vaughn’s evil sidekick. except he’s funny. and, i’m just going to squee here a minute about vince vaughn, again. because, um, well, shit, look at the man. mmmmm. but yeah. back on topic. jason bateman? fucking great in that flick. i have to make dan see it. i can forgive snoop dogg (jesus, it was good casting for the (movie version of the) character in question, but … why’d you do that to poor huggy? why, why, why?), when i’m given vince and jason in return. mmm. okay, off topic again. i’m just going to close this post out and go be quietly fangirly about the hotness of vince vaughn for a little while.

but don’t let that distract you from my essential point here: jason bateman rocks. you need to go watch arrested development now. just trust me on this one, okay?
