Beaks here...

Caution: there's a way-against-type cameo spoiled in the below trailer for NICK AND NORAH'S INFINITE PLAYLIST. Most of you won't care, but die hard fans of Judd Apatow's television output might want to skip skip out on the last thirty seconds. Also, for those of you who need to see everything in HD, there are such fine things available at MySpace's "Trailer Park".

If NICK AND NORAH'S INFINITE PLAYLIST ends up working (and it better, since I've been waiting for Peter Sollett's follow-up to RAISING VICTOR VARGAS for six years now), it looks like it'll be due to the chemistry of Michael Cera and Kat Dennings. I guess Dennings is a bit of an x-factor here: I've liked her in stuff prior to this (most notably THE 40-YEAR-OLD VIRGIN), but I don't think I've seen her in a substantial role outside of the kind of awful CHARLIE BARTLETT. Eh, I'm sure she'll be fine.

Other than that, it's kind of odd to see Cera playing a character in a band so close to SCOTT PILGRIM. Good thing he appears to be playing rhythm guitar instead of bass. I'm only pretending to be hung up on this shit.

The film is due out October 3, 2008.
