Michael Cera at ‘Nick and Norah’s’ Red Carpet Premiere!
Ready to rock? ET’s on the red carpet for the premiere of ‘Nick and Norah’s Infinite Playlist,’ and we’re with the musical dramedy’s star, Michael Cera!
In the film, which hits big screens this Friday, the always funny Cera (’Superbad,’ ‘Juno’) plays a music-man who tries to one-up his ex by impulsively asking Norah (Kat Dennings, ‘The House Bunny’) to be his five-minute girlfriend — and so begins a hilarious and wildly unp
Review: “Nick and Norah’s Infinite Playlist”
Based on the novel by Rachel Cohn and David Levithan.
The plot: Nick (Cera) and Norah (Dennings) spend an incredible chaotic but eventually magical night in New York City.
Our thoughts: Peter Sollett’s “Nick and Norah’s Infinite Playlist” has enough rhythm to maintain the audience’s attention for 90 minutes, but the film definitely lacks the surprise factor we’ve come to appreciate in this new genre of teenage comedies. It’s a shame, really, because the movie holds plenty of unexploited po
Why I Already Irrationally Hate Nick & Norah's Infinite Playlist [Rants]
So that movie Nick & Norah's Infinite Playlist is out today, and look! It's getting very good and pretty good reviews! Well that's good for little Michael Cera and Kat Dennings, the fawn-faced stars of the emo-queercore-fake New York City romp film about two Stars-crossed lovers who enjoy a wild night on the LES in pursuit of good music, good lovin', and a drunk girl. Yeah. It's nice. I haven't seen it yet, but I already fucking hate it.
Why do I hate it? How could I possibly hate a movie that featu

Are Nick & Norah Fans Really Flocking to Veselka?
Every NYC movie/tv show can create a new pop culture landmark and tourist destination. Serious Eats points out that When Harry Met Sally had Katz's and Sex and the City had Magnolia, and now Nick & Norah's Infinite Playlist has staked a claim on Veselka. Owner Tom Birchard told SE that they were "slammed all weekend" with folks allegedly wanting to recreate the scene where Michael Cera and Kat Dennings enjoy some pierogies at the 24-hour eatery (the address is even given in the dialogue). No word on if Arle

The Music of Nick and Norah's Infinite Playlist
Perhaps I'm stating the obvious, but the best soundtracks always take on the character of the movie they accompany, and vice versa, and that's certainly the case with Nick and Norah's Infinite Playlist. The film, which follows the bridge-and-tunnel protagonists Nick (Michael Cera) and Norah (Kat Dennings) on a night of hijinks through the streets of Brooklyn and Manhattan, is packed full of blink-and-you-miss-it hipster cameos from current faves Andy Samberg, Seth Myers, John Cho and Kevin Corrigan.

Michael Cera: when geeks get the girl
(Reuters)
Reuters - In a little more than a year, Michael Cera has built a movie career and loyal fan base playing geeky high school heroes -- zits and all -- who somehow get the girls. So it must feel good, being a sexy leading man in Hollywood -- especially when you're really kind of geeky.
‘Beverly Hills Chihuahua’ leads Friday b.o.
Friday marked a great start at the box office for Raja Gosnell’s family flick “Beverly Hills Chihuahua,” which took the No. 1 spot with $7.8 million in ticket sales.

Nick & Norah's Realistic Portrayal Of Teen Sex [Finger On The Pulse]
Prescient soothsayer Richard Lawson over at Gawker was totally right in his irrational hatred of Nick and Norah's Infinite Playlist: it is a quarterlifer's false idealization of his or her generic suburban teenhood. However, having seen the movie I need to defend one instance where Nick and Norah becomes a completely realistic portrayal of New Jersey-bred nerds. When Nick and Norah finally consummate their movie-long sexual tension, their hookup is exactly the the way two indie rock obsessed 17-year-olds wo

Dr. Venkman Reviews: Nick and Norah’s Infinite Playlist
You know what? You may not believe me when I say this, but this is one of my favorite movies of the year. Not only one of my favorite but one of the best made. As much as I liked Juno, I liked ‘Nick and Norah’s Infinite Playlist’ even more. You may think I’m nuts for saying that, but I was able to connect with the characters and story in this film better.
I honestly remember having nights like the one these characters had. Pulling all nighters not knowing where the night will take you.

Review: Nick and Norah’s Infinite Playlist
‘Nick and Norah’s Infinite Playlist’ is one of those quirky, cute comedies that comes out once a year and wins over the hearts of all types of film goers. It is a far above average romantic comedy about wandering souls and the fate that brings them together, yet it feels more realistic than most other romantic comedies that have come out before it.
Based on the novel by Rachel Cohn and David Levithan, the film follows two high-schoolers and their one-night adventure through the world of i

An Arbitrary Guide To This Weekend’s New Releases
If you’ve found yourself skimming the movie listings these past few weeks to no avail, well, get ready, because there’s a whole lot of new blood coming in. This weekend sees 7, that’s right, 7 wide releases, which is sure to result in a major shakeup in the weekend Top Ten and give holdovers just hanging in there on the bottom 5 some serious reason to be worried.
Depressingly, Beverly Hills Chihuahua is likely to snag the #1 spot - because if there’s one thing we’ve learned it’s that idiots (an

Michael & Kat's Finite Playlists
Given how much indie appropriating and Vampire Weekending Nick & Norah's has indulged, taking a spin through the iPods of the film's principals seems like a fine thing to do. So, nice work iTunes (and good luck on Thursday!). Are the real Nick and Norah really fans of Bishop Allen, or is that just ACTING? Neither Michael Cera nor Kat Dennings had a hand in crafting the OST (Salon tells us that was the work of director Peter Sollett and editor Myron Kerstein), but a pass through their playlists says they wou
Is Michael Cera the New Breed of Heartthrob?
You know him as the awkward teen in Juno, as the awkward teen in Superbad, and as — what else? — the awkward teen on Arrested Development.
But Michael Cera’s developed one heck of a fanbase on both sides of the gender spectrum, and is now preparing to make his leading-man debut in the much-buzzed-about Nick & Norah’s Infinite Playlist, opposite hottie Kat Dennings. The film hits theaters on Friday.
