I just watched this today...it was great! I hadn't laughed so hard in a while.

Yeah, the music was awesome, especially with the movie. It's on non-stop on my iPod too.

The whole Mark and Juno thing...really creeped me out. The whole theatre was visually uncomfortable with that whole scene, you could tell.

Haha, "pork swords".

Oh yeah. That was probably like the least funny funny line in the movie, and it had to become the most popular. mellow.gif

Saw this, finally, and feel like the only person in the world that doesn't like it. And, philosophically, I think I really hate it. It's an obvious commercial experiment (especially given the success of Little Miss Sunshine) to propagate the "indie quirky and cool." Trite, over-written dialogue. Place-holder characters. Disgusting moral positions to the point of having the film adopted by religious right wing groups to promote anti-abortion campaigns. Teenage pregnancy is neither cute nor fun. This movie tells me nothing about life. Worst of all, I didn't laugh once (not f**king once). It's a shame it has such an amazing soundtrack, too f**king bad I've been listening to all of it for years now.

Shit on this movie and it's backwards f**king Oscar nominations and win.

While Nate feels like he's on the only person on the planet that doesn't like the film, I feel like I'm the only person on the planet that still hasn't seen it.

^ Aw it's ok.

I just saw it recently, and I mean It wasn't THAT great. I was expecting so much more from this movie. At least I heard it was "oh so amazing!" and it wasn't that great. Or that funny. pinch.gif

Are you serious?

Why do people put Belle and Sebastian on soundtracks?! WHY?! Is it an auto-cool thing?

It was a good movie but it was too hyped up. It wasn't that too. The characters were a little...too unrealistic for me. shrug.gif

yep, sorry i brought back another old thread, but i've just been catching up on movies (since it's summer and all!) pinch.gif

i didn't think it was that funny (i don't know if it really was supposed to be), but i was pleasantly surprised with how the movie was because i thought it would be different for some reason. i really liked how each point of view was shown and not just juno's. like juno's parents' reaction to her pregnancy, mark and vanessa's relationship, etc. i just wish michael cera had more on-screen time.

Watched this on the plane back from the States last month...it killed time and that's as far as I'd recommend it.

I still haven't been able to bring myself to watch it. I'm just not at all inspired to for some reason.

I didn't love this movie...I'm not trying to be all ZOMG IM A NONCONFORMIST IM GOING TO HATE ON JUNO, but I won't say I loved it just because everyone else did either.

I think I laughed...twice [step mother ownage scene] but other than that I just found the movie unappealing: that really strange divorce storyline with the adopting parents?!!?

While some people go too far into the movies and try to pry and figure things out. I've only read as to what the adoptive mother does for a living... because the father does say that his jingle paid for the kitchen... and the only time you see the mother outside of the home is when she is with the kids at the mall. But she has to to have some sort of steady job, because she's always out when Juno comes over. shrug.gif And she has to have a good job in order to be a single mother adopting.

I didn't really like this movie. Juno was just too far out there for me. Some parts felt like the actors were doing a screen test and just reading the scripts to each other. Like when she goes to the convience store and clerk has these off the wall comebacks. They seemed too forced for me. It reminded me of when you are in class and the teacher makes you read lines from a book outloud.

i also got that impression that they were trying to seem "indie." it wasn't horrible for me, though.
