I have been obsessed with this movie forever! I should clarify, I've been obsessed with MOLLY RINGWALD forever!!! But seriously, For Keeps is dear to my heart and I'll tell you why. It tells the story of two teenagers who end up knocked up after a fun and frisky night out. They announce their pregnancy during Thanksgiving dinner. Check out this hilarious moment at 1.40 in the youtube clip - "I'm pregnant, can you pass the turnips?" I connect with this film because it depicts a very honest and realistic reaction to teen pregnancy by the two families.They make sacrifices to keep their baby. On a more personal level, I was born in 1988 from two high-school sweethearts. My parents ended in divorce but Darcy and Stan fight to the end.
#4 - Father of the Bride II (1995)
I adore this film! In this Father of the Bride sequel, both daughter and mother become pregnant at the same time! Double baby craziness! Steve Martin does a fabulous job as George, a father going through a mid-life crisis. George has a hard time accepting that his little girl is all grown up and having a baby. Just when he starts to come around, he finds out his wife, Nina, is also with child. If your not familiar with the film, check out the trailer below!
#3 - Look Who's Talking (1989)
Who doesn't love Look Who's Talking? People loved it so much they made like 3 sequels! Kristie Alley and John Travolta had amazing chemistry in this film. Kristie plays Mollie, an accountant who sleeps with one of coworkers and winds up knocked up. She discovers the father of her unborn baby cheating and goes into labor. That's where she meets Travolta, cab driver, who gets mistaken as the father of the baby in the hospital. He falls in love with Mollie and Mikey (the baby) and they live happily ever after. Here is a fun baby montage clip from the movie :)
#2 - Baby Mama (2008)
Two words: Fey and Poehler! This dynamic duo
does it again, but this time on the big screen! Tina Fey plays Kate, a successful business woman who wants nothing more than a child. Unfortunately, she can't get pregnant so she spends thousands of dollars for a surrogate, Amy Poehler. Conflict arises when the surrogate mother reveals she isn't carrying Kate's baby! That's some baby mama drama lol! Here's a funny clip from Baby Mama:
#1 - Knocked Up (2007)
I fu*king LOVE this movie! Seth Rogen and Katherine Heigl are hilarious in this romantic comedy! This is Judd Apatow at it's finest. Katherine plays Alison, a career woman at E! who gets a promotion to be on-air. She hits the club to celebrate with her sister, played by Apatow's real life wife, Leslie Mann. At the club she meets Seth Rogen, Ben, a stoner who is just looking to get laid. And he does! The two opposites struggle to get on the same page. But eventually, realize their love for one another. If you haven't seen this flick, you NEED to! Trust me, its hysterical!
