‘ARRESTED DEVELOPMENT: MOVIE’ ON HOLD

Filed Under (News & Updates, Projects, Rumors & Gossip) by Rachel at 12:58 am

It seems achieving A-List status with hits like Juno and Superbad has caused Michael Cera to forget his roots. The Canadian cutie, who got his big break on the well-loved but short-lived comedy Arrested Development, is reportedly holding out on reprising his role as George Michael Bluth in a big screen version of the television show. The rest of the cast members, including Jason Bateman and producer Ron Howard, are excited about the project. While rumors were swirling that both Michael Cera and Will Arnett were holding up the project, creator Mitch Hurwitz suggests they’re still waiting on Cera. “I don’t want to talk about who is holding out right now because we might still work that out and I don’t want to pressure anyone through the press,” Hurwitz told fancast.com. “Although I will say that Will Arnett is gung-ho, so there’s a big clue!”

GILLIGAN’S ISLAND FEATURING MICHAEL CERA?

Filed Under (News & Updates, Rumors & Gossip) by Rachel at 3:47 pm

There has been a rumor going around that Sherwood and Lloyd Schwartz are in talks of moving ahead with the “Gilligan’s Island” movie and they want both Michael Cera and Beyonce to be apart of it.

Sherwood Schwartz, creator of The Brady Bunch, and his son Lloyd Schwartz are finally moving ahead on a big screen version of Gilligan’s Island, a 1969 sitcom which the legendary producer also created. And if the two Schwartzs have it their way, Michael Cera will be slipping into that famous red shirt and white hat as Gilligan. They are also currently trying to nab Beyonce as sexy movie star Ginger.

Speaking with Tv Guide during his induction into the Academy of Television Arts and Sciences, Sherwood explained that a deal, “Just happened in the last 48 hours. I can’t take this much excitement at my age.” Dawn Wells, who played Mary Ann on the hit series, likes the idea of Beyonce playing Ginger and stated, “There isn’t anybody sexier than Beyonce!”

The Gilligan’s Island movie doesn’t have a set start date at this time, and no actors have been signed just yet. You can expect to hear more on this project in the very near future.

5 Movie Characters Not Too Lame To Be For Halloween

Filed Under (Uncategorized) by Rachel at 9:09 am

To kick off our week of Halloween coverage, all tuned to the movie geeks we are, we’re bringing you five Halloween costumes that are actually worth being this year– the ones that not every single person at the party will have also thought of, and most of them the ones that aren’t being sold in Halloween stores. Yes, that may be because one of these involves nothing more than a hoodie and a mumble, but couldn’t everyone’s costume use a little simplicity?

5. Michael Cera.
Not even Michael Cera from one of the particular movies in which he’s warmed our hearts– just Michael Cera the person, who seems to be not all that different from Paulie Bleeker, George Michael Bluth, Nick or Evan. This costume works particularly well for girls, who can pull off the baby face thing almost as well as Cera himself can.
Watch out for… Overdoing the awkward mumbling. Cera is coherent, after all, at least sometimes.

Funny … don’t you think?:)

Movie Review: ‘Nick and Norah’ is Refreshing

Filed Under (Multimedia, Uncategorized) by Rachel at 8:00 am

One advantage that “Nick and Norah’s Infinite Playlist” has over the typical teen romantic comedy is a terrific soundtrack that perfectly matches the fleeting loyalties of teenage love. Adapted from the popular novel of the same name, the film follows a group of teen hipsters roaming late-night Lower Manhattan in search of a secret show by their favorite indie-rock band. The journey is more important than the destination, of course, because the characters are more interested in each other than they are in the band.

Nick O’ Leary (Michael Cera, “Juno”) has taken a “personal day” from school to wallow in the depression following his breakup with prissy Tris (Alexis Dziena). One of her classmates — and frenemies — is Norah Silverberg (Kat Dennings, “The House Bunny”), a straight-edge student who’s been secretly enjoying the mix CDs that Nick has thoughtfully made and Tris has casually discarded.

At a performance that night by Nick’s queercore band, Norah finally meets her musical soulmate. The two set off in their quest for the secret show, intermittently interrupted by awkward misunderstandings, car trouble (Nick drives a Yugo, of course) and a panicked search for a friend suffering the results of underage drinking. The film moves briskly under Peter Sollett’s sure-handed direction, but it’s the charming chemistry between Cera and Dennings that provides the emotional momentum.

Cera has been faithfully doing his part to help Hollywood go green, having continually recycled the sarcastically sweet character he played in TV’s short-lived “Arrested Development.” It works especially well here because Dennings plays a believable character (unlike, for example, one Juno MacGuff). It’s obvious from the start that Nick and Norah are a natural pair, but their gradual realization is amusingly affecting. Will it last? We can’t know, but it’s uplifting to observe two young people discover “love” for the first time without drugs or alcohol acting as a catalyst.

Sorry for not updating, I have a lot things on my mind now, school, friends, parents, bla h blah. New layout coming soon :)

They range from big stars like Daniel Radcliffe and Miley Cyrus to relative unknowns such as Gemma Arterton of new James Bond flick Quantum of Solace, but one thing they have in common is being young and hot in Hollywood, according to a new online poll.

Michael Cera, 20, for instance had two break-out movie hits last year with Superbad and Oscar-nominated teen pregnancy comedy Juno, and he’ll follow that up this year with October’s Nick & Norah’s Infinite Playlist, in which for the first time he is the star expected to lure fans to theatres.

Other stars on list like Shia La Beouf with co-star Megan Fox(Transformers), Miley Cyrus(Hannah Montana), Daniel Radcliffe and Emma Watson (Harry Potter), Blake Lively, Zac Efron (High School Musical), Robert Pattison(Twilight)also Ellen Page.
