Well, it's a bit of a remark to our societal growth. This surrogate mother story would have been absolute taboo just 20 years ago, and only 10 years back would have been impossible to market. Hell, Focus On The Family gave Juno a good review, but then complained how it's non-Christian characters are "unwatchable". Social conservatives and religious fundamentalists are squirming for a new Regan to quelsh social development - which will never, ever happen again. It appears that many, many more people don't care enough to obey anti-family Christian dogma. Get over it.

From the viewpoint of this Christian, Juno was very good and well done.
I love Tina Fey but have never found Amy Poehler very funny.

I saw juno this weekend and I loved it especially the line about cool parents being a graphic designer with an asian girlfriend.

I was bummed to learn that Fey hadn't written the script. She is an amazing comic talent (I mean, she made Lindsay Lohan bearable and comic in Mean Girls -- now that's good writing). Anyone catch "Anualle" on SNL when Fey hosted?

Juno was a great pic. I was amazed by its brazen treatment of such a "taboo" subject, and thought its overall message of doing what's right for an unborn baby shined brightly. Oh, and Jennifer Garner was great as was the soundtrack featuring Kimya Dawson.

"I love Tina Fey but have never found Amy Poehler very funny."

Agree 100%... Also, Poehler looks like she's been on the crack pipe in the previews I've seen on TV.

I liked the line of Juno's about kids in her school referring to her as "a cautionary whale".

Good to see Tina Fey getting some love. 30 Rock is the funniest show on television.

Um...a slow news day?

An experiment. Best-of and worst-of movie links do well around here. I wondered if a weekly box office link might be popular.

Gawd spare us all from Tina Fey and Amy Poehler.

They are EVIL!

Be Well.

/Really gone now just had to mention that.

I didn't see BABY MAMA, but I (regrettably) see
ESCAPE FROM GUANTANAMO.

Horrible film - unfunny, raunchy & VERY unAmerican.

Redlightdistrict,


When Star Wars came out my parents took us to see it multiple times.


I was 6 years-old when the original "Star Wars" came out. My dad took my brother and I to see it 5 times. He also took us to see "Empire Strikes Back" 4 times. We saw "Return of the Jedi" twice.

Those were great times.

For some reason, my dad absolutely loved the name, "Lando Calrisian".
