Diablo Cody should burn

Just watched this movie for the first time:

I now hate Ellen Page as an actor because Diablo Cody's detached, unrelatable hipster dialogue made her unbearable to watch/listen to.

And I now want to bring warm to Diablo Cody because she is by far the worst writer of this generation and has no idea how to make a 16 y.o. who talks like a obnoxious ungrateful 40 y.o., believable as a real character.

Brooke "Diablo Cody" Busey, please go back to stripping and phone sex. That is what you're best at.

If I don't reply to your post, it means i don't care. If I do reply...I'm just bored.

"Hipsters" tend to go for 'new and trendy', while Juno's musical taste leans towards 'retro'. It's kind of hard to be a 'teen hipster', and that doesn't seem to be what the film-makers were going for, here.

Nope. She was good in this movie and usually I don't like her, such as in Hard Candy, or w/e it was called.
