"Juno" frontlash, Hillary hate
A 3.7 Huffington Post article by Cinematical's James Rocchi draws analogies between Juno backlash (or frontlash) and Hillary hate. As amusing and well-written as the piece is, it would feel slightly more vital if it had come out before the Oscars, or when the Juno backlash was really strong in late January to early February. I think most of us feel Juno-ed out at this stage.

I don't know anything about that Juno backlash...the people I know who liked it still like it... the people I know who didn't get it or hated it, probably still feel the same. If there's any backlash, it's by the journalists who were praising the movie as the best thing since sliced bread out of Toronto, while the movie was good, i'd even go so far as saying very good, but not great and certainly not worthy of as many Oscar nominations as it got. This isn't a backlash, as much journalists finally allowing the veil to be lifted in order to see the truth. Hopefully, the same thing will happen with Obama soon, because the love for him seems to be more along the lines of the insane love for Juno... that's a much better analogy.
