Teaser poster
I cannot tell a lie. I absolutely hated “Juno.” From the nauseatingly quirky dialogue to the random name-dropping of trendy indie rock bands, the whole thing just seemed like writer Diablo Cody was screaming: “Hey, look at me! I’m hip!” Apparently, she fooled enough people to collect an Oscar out of the deal, so good for her. Everyone’s bound to get lucky once.
The trailer for Ms. Cody’s latest outing, “Jennifer’s Body,” hit the streets this week and it looks like we’re right back to where we started. This time though, the teenage high school girl strutting around to latest indie jangle isn’t preggers, she’s some kind of possessed, boy-eating girl. When you watch the trailer there are all kinds of “clever” one-liners suggesting this to be a horror/comedy, but I’m going to go out on a limb and say this movie will end up just being horrible.
There are a lot of insinuations throughout the trailer that the movie-going public will get to see Megan Fox’s nipples, which will surely delight teenage boys nationwide. Will it actually happen? Who cares? One thing is for sure, Megan Fox will do interviews upon the release of the movie saying things along the lines of “Well, it’s a horror movie, so I’m not going to bulls--- anyone and say it’s about acting. I’m just terrible at what I do and when my good looks fade, so will my acting career.”
They also dug up Adam Brody for this sordid affair, this time playing some kind of indie-rock star, the exact opposite of the character that he played on the now defunct, Fox teeny-bopper soap opera, “The O.C.” Brody has surely set out to show the world that not only can he play a fan of the music convincingly, but also a musician himself. Oh, how the tables have turned! Too bad Ryan Atwood isn’t around to see this.
Being a huge fan of the horror genre, when I heard Diablo Cody was throwing her hat in the ring, I felt a part of my brain stroke out. After viewing this trailer, I am sufficiently brain damaged. I guess I’ll have to add her name to this list.
Honest to blog.

that movie just looks horrible. i predict diablo cody will be back to stripping in 6 months.
This film does look rubbish. Although i did LMFAO when i watched the trailer: " Am i too big", lol.
Megan Fox is just pathetic, doesn't she have an once of dignity?? well she isn't showing her "whole" body thats a start.but shes a slut in ALL of her movies except tranformers. now that thats over with she knows she just has to show off her body to achieve the desperate attention shes longing for. i cant believe juno directer invented this.
whats the world coming to this is just de grading to woman
All of you are full of rubbish! Cody won an Oscar for an indie movie that was A-M-A-Z-I-N-G!
Laura,
Diablo Cody isn't thank you at any acceptance speeches and most likely does not read this blog. She is more likely to thank your significant other after he has thrown crumpled up singles at her after a Buck Cherry song. So, you can stop sucking up.
She claims that she gave up her day job to strip because she "liked it". I have a bridge in Brooklyn I want to sell you. You in?
Get some T-A-S-T-E.
Warmest,
Snore-uh
Diablo Cody's work looks like she just samples all the things found on stuffwhitepeoplelike.com and pieces it together into a movie. Unrealistic witty dialogue...check. Awkward silence...check. Hipster music...check.
quite honestly,
most of you clearly don't understand the purpose of her sickeningly hip dialogue
it's do just the opposite of what you all suggest
it's making fun of all the s*** that's out there
I've read the script, and though it's not fool proof
this movie has great possibilities
oh yeah,
have you watched U.S. of Tara?
judging by this post, no
it's far different from juno or J's body
in fact if you watched it on a whim
you would never guess she was the writer
it's a great show
Andrew,
Really?
Hoping you find me soon,
Taste
P.s. You and Laura should get together.
Hey guys, did you know that everyone interprets me differently?
Love, Taste
PS. Stop fighting, you look pathetic doing it.
Shut up Taste.
Has anyone here seen the 2008 horror flick "Spree"? A cinematic masterpiece!
Cody can only hope Jennifer's Body will be held in the same high regard.
So someone puts a name (as I have after reading a previous comment) in Google and comes up with some information.
Then that person takes an ambitious undertaking that the writer saw through and accomplished and gives the writer a tough time for putting his name out there.
Seems fair. Bunkhausen, even.
I Googled the name Marc and what came up was a train that is part of the Maryland Transit Administration. I'm real proud of you, Marc. Nice job. Idiot.
Like Diablo says, she has an Oscar with her name on it. You don't. That says it all.
Kevin Costner got an Oscar for Dances With Wolves, take a look at what it beat out and tell me that his name on the Oscar means that much.
Also, Three Six Mafia have an Oscar, where do they stand in the pompous world of film people?
um. isn't that the same logo for True Blood...?
Diablo Cody is another one note trick pony that can't break the "indie" trend with her p*ss ant writing, horrible plot and crassly written dialogue. Her fanbase consist of 15 year old idiots who only follow the latest "Trend" and that's to enjoy a bland story line with poorly written characters. She's a moron who got LUCKY with her Oscar (not that Oscars mean much these days. It's another hack popularity contest run by a bunch of old koots who think they know everything about movies)and hasn't followed up with a "good" script since. Go back to the pole Cody, it's the only thing you are good at.
Got something to say?
