What movie caused your birth?
-
New game!
- Take your birth date
- Subtract 9 months
- Look up what movies were out around that time
- Postulate what movie your parents got frisky during to create you.
Mine was Robocop. I was a little early to be Princess Bride.
How about you? this site might help -- replace the year in the url with the applicable one.
-
If the timing works out, Indiana Jones and the Temple Of Doom.
But I fear it'd be more likely either Firestarter, Gabriela, or The Natural.
-
Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles III. Well... whatever gets you guys horny I guess.
Filed under: help, I'm a turtle and I can't get up
-
Hmmm.
-
-
@r10pez10 Noises Off, clearly was the real cause
-
Monty Python and the Holy Grail! (Actually, I'm pretty sure neither one of my parents has seen it)
-
Matching the date pretty well: Star Trek III: The Search for Spock. I think I was born a couple weeks early though, which would give Ghostbusters and Gremlins as potentials. Neither are movies my parents would watch, though.
-
I got... Top Gun. Or possibly Short Circuit.
If I was a bit early, might have been this movie, in which case I need some rum. If I was really early, it might be Labyrinth. I have to admit, I would not be opposed to having been, err, 'inspired' by David Bowie.

I don't know if that site is quite correct. If it were, Alien would be pretty close, but IMDB has the general release being a month later than your site.

I'm surrounded by children!
For me it looks like the best candidate was South Pacific.
-
I'm uncomfortably uncertain about how likely this is. Or I'm just uncomfortable attempting to imagine the circumstances of my conception, Probably both.

That's… disturbing!
-
Seems apt.

@Luhmann
Oh ... and for my daughter it might beWe watched it several times on dvd. I mean ... I think the 5th time we actually made it past the dvd menu and the opening scenes.
-
By US release dates it's:
Oh yeah
Or, um:
-
Masters of the Universe fits.

Nope, can't blame anyone...
-
-
Top Gun (this is accounting for being, at the time, a near record setting premature baby)
-
But I really don't think that had anything to do with it…

So you're a result of the volleyball scene as well?

The living Volkswagen Beetle helps an old lady protect her home from a corrupt developer.
Everything suddenly became clear to me!

I know software development was still a new thing in the 70s, but did it really need to be dæmonised?
-
A widower gets it on with the nanny, a disgraced ex-religious figure. After the widower's daughter has an assignation with a neighbor, the whole family puts on an exhibition to escape from the obligations of society.
-
-
For my daughter I will blame (we think the real reason was I started working from home the week I conceived so...nooners or pantsless Fridays):
-
@Yamikuronue I know what mine is. My dad is a massive Star Wars fan and he isn't in anyway religious. However I was born not long before Empire Strikes back (probably one of the best movies ever made).
So it is pretty obvious.
-
It looks like it was "Psycho". Seems appropriate.

Almost assuredly.
Though Short Circuit did get a ton of play in the household during my early life as well.

@Yamikuronue I think my parents got frisky from moving into an apartment of their own in a newly-built apartment block. At least, so say the legends. Getting some furniture from long long standing in a line for hours could be a contributing factor.
You wouldn't want to make babies after seeing any one of the 1983 USSR movies.

Is there anything you'd want to do after seeing any one of the 1983 USSR movies?

They are in their mid-fucking-twenties!
You are old.
I am old. I should have grandchildren, weren't I childless to start with; @Karla probably raised dinosaurs on a farm. People from sixties are basically late permian fossils by now. Baby boomers most probably were trilobites.

Get drunk, obviously.

For me, it was "The Wedding Video of Mr and Mrs @izzion's Dad"

Welcome to the ranks of the old. Here is your complimentary cane.

@accalia
Well, the movie would be the actual ceremony, probably rated G (or ZZZ ).

I've been having that reaction since 1990 kids started getting internet access. It escalated when they started with drivers licenses. And more when they could vote. And more when they could drink. Now we're giving them cheap car insurance.
Fuck.
-
@Weng You could try the UK, where the voting and drinking ages are the same…

Drinking age comes first and the other ones are simultaneous ...

I doubt my parents saw The Green Berets, so maybe Rosemary's Baby? That's a scary thought.
