Right, I'm agreeing with you, I don't think it's a chick flick at all, and when I went it was mostly couples also.
-
the movie site Fandango.com has user reviews from people who've seen it. There are 248 reviews by women, and 198 by men. So that's a 55/45 split.

Is anyone else surprised that Juno has made around 120 million at the box office????
No, it's a good movie that's hugely critically acclaimed, Oscar nominated, and as you can see from the box-office totals, very popular with the public at large. If the people love it, critics love it, and the Academy loves it, that generally equals $$.
No need to elaborate Spats, we know how you feel about the movie.

1968-1972 is where it's at, there's obviously some good material outside of those years, but that 5 year stretch is incredible.

^ Looks too Anglo to me. I'd sure think babyjesus would look a little more like this...albeit younger...
Jesus would look like Ringo Starr?!

I could come out with my clippers and hook you up Ev, I haven't paid for a haircut in over 10 years! Then again, you probably haven't either...

This conversation truly encapsulates what makes Spats so Spatsy. Here we have a widely loved movie, one that Roger Ebert calls the best of 2007. In his review Ebert talks about how we come to care about and love these characters, how everyone gives great performances, and how Ellen Page will likely get an Oscar nomination. We grow to like and care about these characters, and the movie ends on a high note, with everything working out positively for everyone.
And Spats comes away from it hating Juno, thinking all the men are potrayed as jerks and wimps, and thinking the script is anti-male. As with everything else Spats ever has talked about, he COMPLETELY misses the point and has a COMPLETELY different way of seeing it than the whole rest of the world.
*SIGH*

Seeing the world through your eyes would be a very interesting experience, Spats...to see the world the way NO ONE else sees it.
(that's a nice way of saying you're an idiot)

^ Right, because if she was cool she wouldn't ask him to do such a thing.
-
And Juno treats him badly thoughout most of the movie and he puts up with it. A guy with balls wouldn't have put up with her crap and would have told her to take a hike.
So because he was nice to the MOTHER OF HIS CHILD, and didn't tell the girl he got pregnant to take a hike when she got hormonal on him, he didn't have balls huh? Like I said, you're an idiot.

Cera is portrayed badly because he is portrayed as a wimp. When he tells her she is beautiful it's like he is about to cry. I wanted to puke. And Juno treats him badly thoughout most of the movie and he puts up with it. A guy with balls wouldn't have put up with her crap and would have told her to take a hike.
I actually liked Jason Bateman's character. I didn't think he was a bad guy but the movie was portraying him as one.
You're an idiot.
-
^ Oops, sorry!
-
How do you think they were portrayed well??
Well, let's see, Michael Cera was portrayed as a good guy, and he got Juno in the end because he appreciated her, as her dad said "for exactly who she is", and she dug him for who he was. It all worked out. How can you think he was portrayed badly?
And yes, Jason Bateman wasn't ready for kids and left his wife. Does that make the whole movie "anti-male"? Hardly, you're being paranoid.
-
Well that's how those two guys were portrayed. See it again.
*Sigh*

^ She has huge cans. Nice.
