Just when you though the Juno news posts on /Film had finally come to an end, we bring you news of a sequel… kinda.
The soundtrack to Juno was almost as big as the indie film sensation itself, hitting number one on the Billboard charts and becoming the best-selling album on the United States iTunes music [...]

For those who don’t know but secretly care, the movie is in 3D. What does a $15 ticket buy in 3D? Well, how about: [...]
