Julie and Julia/YMMV


 * Award Snub: Meryl Streep. Her umpteenth nomination.
 * Designated Protagonist Syndrome: Some fans found Julie relatively unlikable and considered it difficult to root for her. This is enhanced by...
 * Funny Aneurysm Moment: In her follow-up book, Julie Powell admits to cheating on her husband after the events depicted in the movie. Kind of hard now to watch her say that she doesn't deserve a husband as nice as him.
 * Hollywood Homely: The real Julie is rather average-looking, at least compared to Amy Adams.
 * They Wasted a Perfectly Good Plot: How much better would this movie be if we just had the more of the JULIA part?
 * Also, what if Julie and Julia had met in real life?
