And if so, which types of horror should I be feeling?

In a way the movie's like Pretty Woman; a deeply conservative message dolled up in a charming package--minus the charming part. Is the title character even a character or just an ambulatory attitude that ejects oh-no-she-didn't mal mots?
But look, in Juno the music-lover who wants to follow his dreams winds up the Real Enemy. Of course we'd hate it!

That said, as insufferable as the "Juno" script gets, it's still much better than Cody's opportunistic and superficial prose. Can anyone read even a page of "Candy Girl" (or her Entertainment Weekly column) without cringing at her self-congratulatory privileged-girl condescension?

Oddly enough, however, (recapping earlier post on defamer), I think that this forthcoming movie could be way more tolerable than "Juno." Diablo Cody does have an innateley strong sense of charachterization and storytelling. What she doesn't really have (yet) is the sense of craft or artistic restraint that would elevate her to being great. Hence, putting her to work on a horror comedy (where going way too far is part of the point) could be an inspired move.

Juno was 90 minutes of bad, overly quirky dreck, Arrested Development was two whole seasons* of it.
