Nick & Norah
Last night I went to see Nick & Norah’s Infinite Playlist, and honestly, it was a fun movie. Michael Cera pretty much plays the same character as in Juno, but he plays it so well. Overall, I think I liked it better than Juno, the dialogue felt more real. Juno, while good, often seemed over-written. Nobody is that witty, that often. I mean, who the fuck says, “honest to blog,” in conversation?

I agree SO much. Juno really bothered me for that exact reason.
Hold on Mike, I can’t hear you. I’m on my hamburger phone.
Exactly!
Yea… “Juno” really annoyed me for that reason the first time I saw it. The movie grew on me with consecutive viewings.
It reminded me of a Kevin Smith film, particularly “Clerks” – everyone’s really quick and really clever and replies just as soon as they’re spoken to. It’s almost… as though they know what the other person is about to say..!
That said, I DO like Kevin Smith films. Go figure.
Oh, and Michael Cera played the same character in “Superbad” too. Hooray for typecasting!
Nobody fucking says “honest to blog.” If I heard somebody say that out loud I would want to smack the holy shit out of them.
