Yo La Tengo, the lovable indie rock band from Jersey, will be getting adventurous with Greg Mottola, the director of Superbad and some episodes of Arrested Development. Pitchfork reports that they'll create the soundtrack for Mr. Mottola's new comedy, Adventureland, starring Ryan Reynolds (Van Wilder, Definitely, Maybe). According to IMDB, Adventureland is "centered around a recent college grad who takes a nowhere job at his local amusement park, only to find it's the perfect course to get him prepared for the real world." Sounds like familiar territory for Mr. Reynolds. We just hope there's a cute scene involving sleeping bags and b.f.f.'s proclaiming their love for each other. Boop!
