on one of the marc maron interviews one of the people was talking about how she was trying to get diablo cody to start a writing workshop for strippers and prostitutes and cody was like "nah, most strippers are stupid"

as someone who ran with a clique of smart, sarcastic kids in a MN town, all of that stuff is WAY more plausible than you'd think
Fair point. I know I wasn't exactly Juno's target audience.

E, I am not talking the teen effect, I'm talking the MN effect. Not that it's plausible that kids would carbon-copy that type of dialogue, but that something very similar based very heavily on influences from random genres of music and cult films existed in my home town in my immediate circle, plus at things like All-State Choir I met kids from other towns/suburbs who did very similar things.

Ah ok yeah I know nothing about MN so maybe you're right!

"Charlize Theron plays Mavis Gary, a writer of teen literature who returns to her small hometown to relive her glory days and attempt to reclaim her happily married high school sweetheart (Patrick Wilson). When returning home proves more difficult than she thought, Mavis forms an unusual bond with a former classmate (Patton Oswalt) who hasn’t quite gotten over high school, either."
hearing diablo cody dialogue coming out of patton oswalt's mouth is going to make me want to start believing in god so i can curse him.

that blonde girl always looked so pained. she was on an episode of the x-files later...i think that was just her face! unfortunate.
― horseshoe, Thursday, 14 July 2011 19:26 (twelve years ago) link
He's so good looking it's weird. Like he's too handsome. I don't know. There's something hot about flaws and I can't find any on him. He doesn't seem real. He's hot but in a creepy way imo. Too perfect.

i liked it. i mean, very alienating, and unapologetically bleak (esp the ending where there's a moment of self-awareness before total narcissism is reconstituted), but i laughed a lot and it made me feel so good about my life. not generally a feeling i get from art, but one i enjoyed here! (and that feeling makes me suspicious that this film is actually pretty reactionary, and maybe even misogynistic?)
