I don't think it was a no-brainer though. It could have gone under the radar. i think your perspective (younger) and his perspective are totally different and i think both your points are valid.

Some of my favorite movies are sex comedies. I agree that JUNO is better than most films made for and marketed towards teenagers. But it's very much a flm with mainstream appeal ... just like Sideways and Garden State. It’s you who thinks “sex comedy” is a pejorative, not me. Some of my favorite movies are sex comedies.

Like Sideways or Garden State, it plays like an independent film, and its quality puts most studio and independent films to shame. To dismis it as a sex comedy is very unfair, you make it sound like a Rob Schneider movie. Movies like this help mainstream audiences get interested in independent film. I know you are trying to point out false advertising, but it comes off as a personal vandetta agaisnt this movie. I think you are being way too harsh,
