I'm being too harsh on Kubrick. A Clockwork Orange mesmerized me as a kid. But his stuff that I don't like, I REALLY don't like. For me, before I get into overanalyzing a movie, the one primary question is, "Was I entertained?" That, in the end, is the bottom line. And by all means a significant body of work buys a writer or director a couple Mulligans. But I can't stand it when people jump on the bandwagon because they are expected to. And that mentality runs rampant.

Juno's a great movie, no doubt. As others have said, you're overstating it a bit, but I do think it deserved all the recognition it got.


Another movie in the same vein with the same sort of feel that I enjoyed was It's Kind of a Funny Story. Sets the same kind of college aged coffee shop tone but is very engaging with its wittiness a lot like Juno. If you liked Juno you would like that one I believe if you haven't already seen it.
