anyone see this movie yet? it\'s only playing in select cities right now, but i REALLY wanna see it. michael cera and jason bateman together again, rainn wilson, jennifer garner.. looks terrific, and has gotten nothing but rave reviews so far. nominated for 3 golden globes.

trailer:

imdb

it\'s actually playing in cambridge, a mile and a half from the middle east. seriously considering getting up there early and catching it.

i know a guy who saw a pre-release screening and he hasn\'t stopped raving! directed by the same guy who did thank you for smoking (a HUGELY underrated movie, if you ask me) and apparently the script is just amazing! as soon as it shows up near here i\'m gonna make it the first movie i\'ve seen in the theatres since borat....

I heard an interview with the director on npr the other day and it sounds really really good. No idea what the plans are yet for boston but if timing works out I\'d be down for seeing it if you\'re going.

In the interview the director really went off on one scene where Juno is talking to a couple (from memory)

Juno: "Why don\'t you just get one (a baby) from china? They have so many over there, it\'s like they\'re shooting them out of t-shirt cannons at basketball games trying to give them away"

Looks pretty good, and I thought Thank You For Smoking was great. Is it ever going to go beyond just showing in select cities? Do I need to drive to Boston to see it? If that\'s the case I\'ll probably just wait for the DVD.

Finally saw this movie and it was stupendous! I laughed so hard through most of the movie.
Ellen Page is fantastic and Michael Cera is just well Michael Cera and if you like him you know that\'s just perfect.

i\'d have to agree - i was certainly not wild about the previews, but i caught it a few weeks ago ( it was a game-time decision by my friends and i opted to check it out instead of wuss out and go to bed) and i\'m glad i did!

the script was extremely clever, and it really kept me guessing right up until the end - had no idea what was going to happen. very much enjoyed it - check it out if you have the chance!

I didn\'t know this movie was still playing only in select theaters-I really want to see it. Does that mean it will never come here and I have to wait and rent it??

It\'s at the Criterion downtown NH and at the North Haven showcase.

It has some of the most hysterical dialogue!! great performaances too. More quotable quotes than caddy shack and garden state. (okay, not caddy shack. That\'s an exaggeration).

But it is more for the ladies than the guys. If you happen to believe that all men are scum or dumb, you will adore this movie. If not, you\'ll still laugh pretty hard, but leave feeling it didn\'t deliver the complete emotional package.

Bunk?

I drove by North Haven yesterday and didn\'t see it on the board thingy... I\'ll have to see if it\'s playing in Wallingford-that is really nice theater.

Bunk?
