Knocked Up: Difference between revisions

* [[This Is Sparta]]: "My room, your area, stay in your area, stay out of my room, '''back... the... fuck... off.'''"

* [[Three-Month-Old Newborn]]: Attempted aversion/bizarre example: Judd Apatow wanted to shoot an actual birth; Anne Hathaway is said to have turned down the project because of this. Apatow abandoned this plan when he realized that he would need a worker's permit for the unborn child.

* [[Ugly Guy, Hot Wife]]: A pretty big example, with the chubby Ben Stone ''also'' being a gigantic loser in addition to being far less attractive than Katherine Heigl. This doesn't help the perceptions that the movie is sexist.

** Although the movie is aware enough to point this out (Ben even remarks "You're prettier than I am!") and most of the characters wonder [[What Does She See in Him?]]. It is one of the film's strengths in that it does a good job showing their relationship all the way, in that Allison is willing to give him a chance and Ben does his best to be there for her once he gets the news about being an impending father.
