...HUMANITY: A MEMOIR by Bill O’Reilly I know what you’re thinking: Bill O’Reilly? Let me tell you, we’ve done the whole cute animal thing—twice—so it was about time for the cute kid thing, and Bill is the picture of the 50s commercial kid. He is good-looking, upright and proper, and has a small book open in his hands (what could it be? The Bible? The Constitution?

Remember that gawky, socially awkward kid in high school who could never quite speak loud enough for anyone to hear him? Actor Michael Cera has been that kid, first in “Arrested Development,” next in “Superbad,” and then in “Juno.” In his latest movie, “Nick and Norah’s Infinite Playlist,” Cera gives hope to the socially inept as he reprises his well-established role as the charmingly goofy, pubescent boy who somehow manages...

Obviously, the Ford Motor Company is not very happy with me this week, so I will just give that idea to the Olive Garden Corporation...

If you judge this series by the standards of the original trilogy--i.e., if you expect it to be good--then yes, it's as disappointing as the summer movie it follows. If you think of it as a kid-oriented spin-off product--well, it still suffers from characters with all the vibrancy and pizazz of a PowerPoint marketing plan. But a successful marketing plan, since the vivid CGI (and lots of Yoda) will draw the younglings...
