From Empire via First Showing, the new poster for Up in the Air arrives with all the suave gloss the terrific script deserves. I’m not hesitating to call this for a Best Adapted Screenplay nomination, based on the words on the page alone. Tailored to both their talents, Reitman and Clooney are certain to make the most of it. If there’s to be a comedy among the 10 Best Picture nominees, this is the sort of sophisticated humor the Academy can be proud to honor. (Despite the popularity of The Hangover, that’s never gonna happen.)
