The music being out of place didn't bother me, except I've always had a love/hate relationship with Kimya Dawson. She, too, is way overwritten and too hipster to be relatable. <BR/><BR/>TennilleAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-11318515.post-89838197633319296042007-12-19T06:11:00.000-08:002007-12-19T06:11:00.000-08:00Well, I saw it a second time--and I feel pretty mu...Well, I saw it a second time--and I feel pretty much the same way about it. Except the music irritated me just that much more this time. It never stops! It goes from one saccharine song to the next--and some of them are just so out of place, like the Belle and Sebastian one.<BR/>Also, my take on the setups felt true, as well. The people don't live in these environments--these are places that are meant to be art directed and lived in front of, not lived in. I really wanted some variety in shots here and just didn't get.<BR/>Plus, that opening scene with Rainn Wilson is just plain ol' bad.jeremyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06313206057933336246noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-11318515.post-66106728457963100462007-12-13T06:51:00.000-08:002007-12-13T06:51:00.000-08:00Well, you were certainly harder on this one than I...Well, you were certainly harder on this one than I was ... I think perhaps my expectations just let me give Reitman a pass on the directing, cause I was just so busy smiling laughing that I didn't notice many of the cloying touches you mentioned ... And as to the music, I agree that it didn't fit Juno's persona, but the sweet nature of Kimya Dawson's songs (I ordered her latest CD after seeing the movie, if the damn thing ever comes in the mail) just fit the over all tone of the movie perfectlyReel Fanatichttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09727636643227938924noreply@blogger.com
