Knocked up movie
Okay, so... I got to watch knocked up and it was hella funny. The one problem, i'm probably the only one that has this problem, is that I'm horrible with names or... well yeah names in general. And I don't really keep up with movies/stars/watever until recently. So i'm probably really really stupid for saying this but some of their jokes went way over my head. The movie was funny without knowing who the hell they were talking about because there's parts of just laughing out loud before you realize your laughing. I'm the type of person though, that never knows names. I always address the actors by watever part they've played. Like, "oh, thats spiderman/batman/buffy/that fighting dude/etc." So when they were all "that's like 'so and so' doing 'this and that'" I was all... what? But besides that I definitely recommend this movie for maximum funniness. Even though its a romantic comedy there is definitely more comedy (i think) than romance. Warning though, they show some of the birth scene which was a real surprise. It was all 'she's having a baby' to BAM why am I looking at the baby coming out of her? and it's like a split second... okay a few seconds but OMG it was surprising. Newayz, hilarious movie, the kind you buy so you can watch it again. lol.

I think you've nailed perfectly just why Knocked Up is so funny to so many people ... I'm a pop-culture junkie, so I got most off the in jokes, but even without that knowledge, the rest is so funny that you can enjoy it perfectly well anyway
I loved the movie. It amazes me how they balanced such crudeness with such a romantic story at heart. The shrooms in Vegas scenes were absolutely hilarious. The chair I'm sitting in now is very nice.
