NW PREMIERE
NERDLAND
9:00pm

Aspiring actor John (Paul Rudd) and would-be screenwriter Elliot (Patton Oswalt) are two LA dudes approaching their 30th birthdays without yet becoming the megawatt superstars they know they were meant to be. Making up for what they lack in brains and talent with abundant, witless enthusiasm, John and Elliot troll Los Angeles on a fame-grab journey, encountering and abusing friends both new and old. The first feature from animation house Titmouse, whose brainchildren include Metalocalypse, Moonbeam City and Superjail!, Nerdland is a hallucinatory Hollywood road trip told in an appropriately bold and distinctive animation style. Featuring an army of comedy cameos including Hannibal Burress, Mike Judge, Kate Micucci & Riki Lindhome, Molly Shannon, Charlene Yi, and Paul Scheer, this is a hard R-rated animated comedy about celebrity, excess, and two showbiz nobodies with a plan to become famous, or even infamous, no matter what.
