Saw this in the theater without knowing much of anything about it ahead of time and was very pleasantly surprised. To me, Michael Cera is mostly annoying because he plays the *same* damned character in every movie. It's a funny character, but move on already. It could have been worse, they could have gotten Not Michael Cera.

It's also pretty funny that in the comic, Sex Bob-Om is supposed to suck. Supposedly all of their songs in the movie were written by Beck.
