I love these two movies, both directed by Jason Reitman. I enjoy Juno more, as a character study, but I laughed more during Thank You For Smoking.

Ellen Page is just too darn lovable to deny. Juno.

Jason Reitman is one of the few high-profile artists who actually gets worse every time he steps behind the camera. I loved THANK YOU when it came out, thought JUNO was cute (pre-hype), and was flabbergasted by how crappy UP IN THE AIR was -- basically a sell-out remake of THANK YOU. Added to that is how insufferable Reitman is as a person (look it up) and I'm pretty much decided not to give him another minute of my time ever again. What a douchebag.

Thank You for Smoking was mildly enjoyable, but it hardly made much of a lasting impression. Juno certainly did make an impression, but it was overwhelmingly negative.

Could Nick Naylor convince Juno to start smoking in her final trimester? I think he could! Anyway TFS IS and awesome movie whereas Juno COULD have been an awesome (well very good, maybe) movie if not for the weak, emotional second half.
