/Film reader Sheryl Z pointed us towards this trailer for a very well done Juno parody titled Jewno. The title tells you everything. Written by Daily Show scribe Rob Kutner & Sheryl Zohn, and directed by Stephen J Levinson for The Shushan Channel, Jewno tackles almost every possible Jewish joke (and then some) in the context of a story about of a Jewish teenager who gets pregnant. And yes, that is JK Simmons reprising his role from the original Jason Reitman film.

Actually, that IS, in fact, JK Simmons. It’s not a likeness. It’s really him. I’m proud to be a heeb and everything, but I have to admit, I agree with the comment that “Jewishing” everything doesn’t make it funny. It made me chuckle a bit, but we’ve seen this type of thing a million times. Jews are great at parady! But, just because you’re good at something, doesn’t mean you shouldn’t challenge yourself to do something different.

This was put out by the makers of Juno.
I think it’s just an attempt to manage the backlash. Instead of responding to the satires, just put out your own unfunny set of tired Jew jokes to bump SNL and Quotey off the radar. Look! Look at the shiny!
Also, notice Ellen Page’s absence. Think DC’s still getting an Ellen Page tat after SNL? Smart money says hell no.

Juno, was a play on words that the writer of the story decided to use because she was mistakenly thought to be jewish by an important acquaitence of hers and this was how she chose to inform others that she was not jewish. Ironic isnt it.
