Hollywood PrivacyWatch: Michael Cera
1/12 — MICHAEL CERA sat next to me today during lunch at the Mustard Seed Cafe in Los Feliz. He was sitting with two guys and I did overhear the Arrested Development movie being mentioned a few times, though details were unfortunately out of ear-range. He was wearing a plaid shirt tucked into some pants that were far too short, and when he was done with his sandwich, he rode off on a bike, making me think he truly is as awkward and adorable as the characters he plays.

Which 'Arrested Development' Star Is Ready To Ditch Michael Cera?
E!'s Kristin Dos Santos brings us more news on the suddenly snowballing Arrested Development movie, including the new information that the film is budgeted at $15 million (around what we'd estimate the theatrical ceiling is for this property, though homevid sales should be killer). However, her most interesting tidbit, divulged to her by a principal cast member wishing to remain anonymous, is what the reaction is to someone (cough Michael Cera cough) who's not so keen on the big screen transfer: More »

Why I Already Irrationally Hate Nick & Norah's Infinite Playlist
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.

Is Michael Cera 'Two or Three Steps From Being Over?'
As Nick and Norah's Infinite Playlist approaches this weekend, everyone's clamoring to see if Michael Cera has what it takes to push past Ellen Page's preggo belly and Jonah Hill's girth to finally take center stage in a film. But things are looking tenuous for Cera and his "blank Pez-dispenser face," as he seems primed to reprise the dopey-but-endearing role in the new romcom. So will George Michael ever be a star? More »

Enjoy Your DVDs, Because Michael Cera Is Vetoing The 'Arrested Development' Movie
Why, it seems like it was only yesterday (or 2003) that actor Michael Cera was just an unassuming Bluth, content to run the family banana stand and do whatever was asked of him by Jason Bateman with a minimum of protest. Today, however, Cera is a fledgling movie star, with two big hits on his resume (Superbad and Juno) and a romantic comedy (Nick and Norah's Infinite Playlist) yet to come. It's while he was promoting the latter that he broke ranks with Bateman for the first time, shooting down the idea that the Arrested Development movie would film next year and stating that he wouldn't want to be a part of it anyway.

EW's Most 'Dateable' Small-Screen Players Make Us Swoon And Squirm
Every TV nut (well, isn't that all of us here?) has, at one point or another, spent a little time fantasizing about certain fictional characters on their favorite shows. These fantasies tend to be either soft-focus daydreams (say, dreaming up elaborate schemes in which they "bump" into you at a party) or something a bit more hard-core (picturing them while giving your significant other the old in-out). On that note, the clever list-makers over at EW decided to compile a Top 30 reader's choice collection of the small-screen boys and girls who most frequently make cameos in those illicit fantasies. But, with no offense to the site's readers, we have some serious vetoes to charge. After the jump, our picks for who falls under Strongly Agree (the predictable Jim Halpert) and those we brand as a Vehemently Disagree (four words: Bree. Van. De. Camp), as well as the most erroneous, mind-boggling oversight missing from the group: More »

Thanks, 'Superbad', For Elevating Period Blood To The Ranks Of Bodily Fluids Employed In Comedies
A few hours ago we got an email from a friend who attested to be the only person under the age of 63 who did not love Superbad. "Did you not find the period blood stuff offensive?" she wanted to know, referring to the scene in the movie at which a drunk girl exacts revenge against her boyfriend by humping Jonah Hill on the dancefloor, only to smear his thigh with thick, crimson period blood. Hmmmmm. We thought about it for a few seconds. Well, it was sure ... gross... but upon reflection, well, we'd never seen period blood employed in a gross-out comedy before, and actually maybe it was a small victory for feminism! Or as Defamer Seth put it: THE ANTI MENSTRUAL BLOOD SLAPSTICK PATRIARCHY HAS BEEN OVERTHROWN!' 'MAY IT RAIN MENSTRUAL BLOOD UPON US!' [Jezebel]

Fox plans to offer the well-regarded members of the Writing Partners collective (including Ted "Pirates" Elliot and Terry "Of the Caribbean" Rossio, John "Charlie and the Chocolate Factory" August, and others) a deal where they accept small upfront payments for their original specs in exchange for greater creative control and gross profit participation.
