Director Jason Reitman had intended to make the scene in which Juno loads up her tray in the school lunch line as tribute to a scene in Animal House (1978), which was produced by his father Ivan Reitman. But he decided against it because this would have changed the tone of the scene.

At one point before Juno visits Mark, he is sitting at his computer reading Diablo Cody's (the movie's screenwriter) real-life blog, known as "The Pussy Ranch".

Goofs
When Juno is at the clinic, the jar on the desk holding condoms first appears that all the condoms are purple. Then when the shot changes to behind the desk, some yellow and blue condoms can also be seen in the jar. Then the shot changes back to next to Juno and the jar is back to all purple condoms.

When Juno takes the pregnancy test at the store she opens the box and there is no inner wrapping, no directions, nothing. She just opens the box and there it is.

The bathroom key the convenience store clerk holds moves between shots.

Q
Was "Juno" Diablo Cody's first screenplay or writing work?
A
Yes. It was Diablo Cody's first screenplay. However, it was not her first writing work. A few years ago Diablo Cody opened her first blog, Pussy Ranch, which was a success with thousands of readers. Cody then began writing for City Pages, a small magazine/newspaper. She left the magazine just before it changed editorial hands. Cody then wrote for a now-defunct women's magazine called Jane. Through her blog Cody was introduced to Mason Novick, who became her manager. He recognized her wit and sarcasm, and managed to secure her a publishing deal for a novel. Cody then wrote her memoir, Candy Girl: A Year in the Life of an Unlikely Stripper which was released on Gotham Books. After writing her memoir, and before it was released, Cody was encouraged by Novick to write her first screenplay...the result being the script for Juno.
