10 Movie Guys You Wouldn't Take Home To Meet Your Parents

8. Michael Cera As "Himself" (This Is The End)

In 2013's This Is the End, James Franco, Jonah Hill, Jay Baruchel, Danny McBride, Craig Robinson, and others all play fictionalized versions of themselves. Some of their characterizations seem pretty spot-on and others are clearly played up for laughs. The standout of the film however, would have to undoubtedly be Michael Cera as a coked out, douche-bag version of himself. In the €œreal world€ Cera is perceived as an awkward young man who is more than likely just humbled to have starred in the amount of hit movies that he has. In This Is the End, he's snorting cocaine, slapping Rihanna on the ass and hooking up with chicks two at a time in the bathroom. Even Mindy Kaling explains that she'd bend over backwards to have the chance to hook up with the guy. Well, that's all fine and dandy, but imagine if one of those girls tried to build an actual relationship with him. Not going to happen. Cera is a rockstar and unless you can convince you're family of that, you'd best keep him away.
