Brilliant.

If you haven't seen it, you should.

"I am legend - The cautionary whale" is one of my favorite movie lines of all time.

Great Movie

We bought the expanded edition.

Did you know that Bleeker wasn't her first. Juno had sex seven times with some guy who had left for college.

I liked "Juno," but (and I know I'm in the minority here) I didn't think it was "Brilliant" at all. Diablo Cody writes rather well, and she fleshed out her characters brilliantly....but that soundtrack didn't work for me, and just took me out of the movie.

I did love the relationship Juno had with her parents, and most of the dialogue was interesting. and there was good acting all the way around...but I just couldn't connect somehow. I have no problem at all with "No Country For Old Men" being the Best Picture. I'd put "Juno" in my top 10 from last year, but not the top 5.

I would have "No Country" ahead of it as well, but "Juno" was immensely better than "There Will Be Blood" IMO.

Also better than "Michael Clayton."

Now, what was the 5th Best Picture nominee?

"Atonement"

I'll probably pick it up at Blockbuster on the next trip.

I liked Juno as well.

I liked the music so much that I went out and bought a CD by The Moldy Peaches.

I did not pay attention to the disclaimer about the adult language - Downloading Porn with Dave-o!

There are a couple of tracks that I enjoy.

Others - not so much.

I bought the soundrack for the movie. I like some of the songs by The Kinks and Belle & Sebastian.
