Oh, Michael Cera. You will always be the perfect self-conscious and unsure geek. Cera has been entertaining ever since the world got a taste of him as George Michael in Arrested Development - way before Superbad and Juno. However, we all know what's going to happen. He'll be type-cast forever. His latest film, Youth In Revolt, may entice some with his "bad side," but honestly it's just creepy. (I'm not too fond of that "mustache" he sports in the trailer.)
However, he is entertaining in this Islands music video for "No You Don't." Who knew Mikey Cera would be able to play someone on drugs so well? You almost pity him in this video as he runs around lost and almost starts to cry from his queasiness. Watch his hand give off psychedelic colors and Island's frontman, Nicholas Thorburn, wear a mysterious but metallic cape.
