I think a lot of the humor was lost on her. She did, however, lean over at one point and say "I'm definitely from a different time." Yes. You are.<br><br>Although set in MN, I was sad to see it was actually filmed in British Columbia. Go figure.Maggiehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/13079760195154395778noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8671922467974087789.post-57683293136950730852008-01-02T16:29:00.000-08:002008-01-02T16:29:00.000-08:00I am going to pick Rami for the winner this week. ...I am going to pick Rami for the winner this week. <br>-MaryAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8671922467974087789.post-61719904922593514212008-01-02T17:55:00.000-08:002008-01-02T17:55:00.000-08:00rami to win.danrami to win.<br>danAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8671922467974087789.post-511461837208012532008-01-03T06:22:00.000-08:002008-01-03T06:22:00.000-08:00I saw Juno last week and now I'm reading SLAM,...I saw Juno last week and now I'm reading SLAM, by Nick Hornby, about a boy who impregnates a girl. So it's a good partner text to Juno. <br>3 family members liked Juno a lot but #1 son disliked it intensely. He said the whole movie was "annoying," but Jennifer Garner was the "most annoying" of all. He said that right after I said that I thought Jennifer G did a good job with her role.LHhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/14208588882516068765noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8671922467974087789.post-90374512129259103832008-01-03T07:13:00.000-08:002008-01-03T07:13:00.000-08:00Juno was great - it would've been nice if it h...Juno was great - it would've been nice if it had been filmed in MN. It also would've been nice if Jennifer G and Jason B didn't live in St. Cloud, which made no sense to me - I guess it's an hour from Ridgedale? Does that mean Juno goes to Minnetonka high school or something? The school didn't seem West Suburbs to me.<br><br>I thought all the actors did a good job with their parts. Jen Garner was esp. good. So was Juno's dad, I thought. And Allison Janney. And really everyone in it.<br><br>I am going to read Diablo Cody's memoir about being a stripper in Minneapolis. It's called Candy Girl. I've heard it's a quick read. I'm putting it on my list, along with Slam. I generally like Nick Hornby, except you know what? I didn't like High Fidelity for some reason.KChttp://www.blogger.com/profile/14077234813113524553noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8671922467974087789.post-52754513000051330262008-01-03T09:12:00.000-08:002008-01-03T09:12:00.000-08:00I assume by "enjoy" you mean the best mo...I assume by "enjoy" you mean the best movie EVER?!

I did, however, enjoy the movie very much.Tomnoreply@blogger.com
