Line 2:
* [[Alternative Character Interpretation]]: Are Mark's actions that of a selfish [[Man Child]] or a [[Henpecked Husband]] freeing himself to go on his own pursuits?
** Likewise is Vanessa really just a tragic woman who wants to be a mother or really a manipulative [[Jerkass]] who quashes her husband's wishes for her own desires? Or is [[Jerkass Woobie|she]] [[Humans Are Flawed|just flawed?]]
* [[BigNon LippedSequitur Alligator MomentScene]]: Mark shows Juno what appears to be hentai, featuring a pregnant girl. [[Unfortunate Implications|Um...]]
* [[Brain Bleach]]: Oh, GOD. Those [[Unusual Euphemism|PORK SWORDS]]!!!
* [[Family-Unfriendly Aesop]] - Teen pregnancy is one ''wacky'' adventure, not a process that can completely ruin your life!
** A common complaint from news channel pundits and media commentators was that the film not only promoted the idea that a teenage pregnancy is a blast, but that if it's realized that it would be too difficult to raise a child while the mother is at such a young age, a baby can be swiftly adopted by more mature people who have the financial security and free time to raise a child--notchild—not exactly a realistic scenario for most young girls with unplanned pregnancies. Diablo Cody defended the film, pointing out that it would be a much shorter story if Juno had gone ahead with the abortion.
* [[Fridge Brilliance]]: The sounds of scratching, tapping and picking of fingernails in the clinic builds up to sound like a foetal heartbeat.
* [[Genius Bonus]] - While the movie mentions that Juno's named after the Roman goddess Juno, it doesn't mention that one of the main domains of said goddess is childbirth.
