Jason Bateman : Over.

    by Jon Hassinger

After Agnew's "Letter To Ryan Reynolds", I became inspired...
Without a doubt the most unsung man in Hollywood is Jason Bateman. Look at the man's resume:

If you grew up in the 80's, you watched Silver Spoons...

Bateman -spoons

And the Hogan Family IN THE 90's..

bateman -hogans

Then he disappeared for a while. But came roaring back with the cult-hit Arrested Development..

So right there you have three classic television shows from the 80's, 90's and 2000's.

However, it's his diversity in film that is constantly overlooked:

The evil yet hilarious heel in The Ex..
bateman -ex

The self-help "agent" who gets screwed BIG TIME in Hancock.
bateman-hancock

And the recent, "I don't think I'm ready to grow up yet, let alone adopt a child" character in the classic, Juno.

Bateman -juno

He's even got a few smaller roles, that AGAIN GO OVER LOOKED.
I bet you forgot him in Dogeball...

Bateman -1

Along with the guy who played Lumberg and Mike Brady from the Brady movies, Bateman was the amazingly clueless announcer for the actual dodge ball tournament.

Which brings us to today, which is the release date of his newest movie, Extract.

By the way, this is a Mike Judge film, the creator of Beavis and Butthead, and Office Space. If history has taught us anything, this will be a home-run.
