Oct 27 2009 'Mighty Boosh' Movie: Still Happening

News about the planned film adaptation of British television series The Mighty Boosh is like news about the Arrested Development movie: even when it's non-news, it's still sort of news, because what else do we have to look forward to? So I'll accept this crumb of an update as a meal if you will:

Noel Fielding and Julian Barratt have confirmed that they are working on a Mighty Boosh film – but refused to be drawn on too many details.

Speaking to the BBC at the premiere of Bunny And The Bull, a film in which they both have cameos, Barratt did drop some hints about their own movie.

He said: ‘We try to do on TV quite magical epic journeys, and we thought if you're doing a film we should really do it in one room, basically just kind of a sitcom, for 90 minutes.

‘So we might do that. We might do exactly what we didn't do on TV.’

Fielding kept shtum about the project, saying: ‘I've got to stop doing that, I've been stung too many times.’

Thank you for that morsel, guys. I'll go back to my stink corner now.

Sep 5 2008 Yay! U.S. Getting the 'Boosh'

Have you ignored my command for you to illegally download or move to Britain so that you could enjoy the surreal comedy of The Mighty Boosh? Well, your laziness/stubborn reluctance has paid off... this time. It turns out Adult Swim is going to start showing it come January. Hooray for America, continuing to catch up with British comedy by swiping it. Let's take Snuff Box next.

Thanks to Caitlin for the tip, and for the implication she would marry me.

Feb 13 2008 'The Mighty Boosh' Movie is Coming (But Probably Nowhere Near Me)

The surreal British comedy series The Mighty Boosh has a movie is in the works? Yes! (exclamation point here to denote actual excitement.)

Stars Noel Fielding and Julian Barratt have signed a deal with BBC Films to bring the cult series to the big screen.

The show focuses on friends Vince Noir (Fielding) and Howard Moon (Barratt), who embark on a series of magical adventures.

The pair are currently working on a script for the movie, which is likely to begin filming early next year.

If you haven't watched this show, you probably should. And no using the fact that it's only aired in Britain and unavailable in the U.S. as an excuse. Haven't you heard of illegal downloading? Get with it, Luddites. You can start here.
