Three Men and a Baby (1987)

3 Men and a Baby | 1987

Watched Three Men and a Baby today and all I could think about was Viper, Duke and Jester as Peter, Jack and Michael, respectively.

Like baby Pete being left at these three single Navy pilots' door when they come around for Top Gun (do not ask me about the timelime, I haven't thought much about it yet) with only a little letter that says "Duke, this is our son, Pete. I can't take care of him, so I'm trusting you too. With love, Alicia."

They are freaking out. They don't know what to do, they don't know who to call, they don't know anything. There's a baby in their house and they know nothing about babies. Duke is looking at the poor thing like it might bite at any given moment (even though it doesn't even have teeth yet), Jester is three seconds away from a panic attack and Viper is simply trying to bottle all of this up or, otherwise, he might go crazy.

All they know about this cute pie is that Duke is his father, his mother left him and the smell of his shit could kill a man. They don't know anything else. What does he eat? How does he eat? What does he need? Clothes? Diapers? Baby food? They don't know, but, then, suddenly, they need to know because the baby is crying.

And he is LOUD.

Cue to shenanigans, the trio going crazy with little Pete, their whole Top Gun class falling head over heels for the little baby, Duke falling asleep with baby Pete on his arms and waking up because the kid pulled some hairs of his mustache (he laughs loudly at that, the little shit), Jester parading around with the kid for any ladies to see, Viper being a stressed dad and reading two baby books per hour.

Just baby Pete shenanigans and the dad trio going crazy with him.

THREE MEN & A BABY-INSPIRED FIC!

Summary: They say becoming a parent is an unparalleled, priceless joy. Draco Malfoy finds himself putting that theory to the test when the star witness in his dangerous illegal potions case entrusts him with a powerful wish: protect her newborn baby at all costs. Now, it's up to Draco to fulfill that wish despite the looming threat of criminals hunting for the child. To think, just the day before, he was fretting over his inappropriate feelings for his annoying, bespectacled git of a housemate—not the mechanics of changing nappies!

Thank Merlin it takes a village to raise a sack of flour, ah, child.

Watching 3 men and a baby, and finding out it's a Leonard Nimoy film is just begging for a Star Trek AU, right?

The 80′s were like “what if men didn’t know how to take care of a baby?” and it was a little bit funny and a little bit painful. because. well. you know. but THEN they were also like “what if the men sang the baby lullabies in three-part harmony?” and you know what??? actually. they were right. men SHOULD do that.

Dear @faisonsunreve thanks for the tag. This was definitely a time taking task but so much fun to do. A true time travel to your watching history. To my surprise there are three French films and three Tom Hanks films included. 😄

A few comments about certain choices.

Favorite film of all time: The Thief of Bagdad (1940): The jewel of the film is Conrad Veidt’s insane Jaffar dressed up with the turban.

Best script: Some Like It Hot (1959): The story about two antihero musicians trying to make a living and avoiding gangsters by dressing as women and joining a female band and traveling to Miami is still unique to watch.

Favorite poster: The Empire Strikes Back (1980): Memories from the childhood. Darth Vader’s perhaps a little too epic posture promises you an emotional adventure and that promise will be fulfilled.

"I’ll watch it some day": Napoléon (1927): @missholson and I were introduced to this 6-hour biopic of Napoleon and we were stunned by the shots of the twenty-minute triptych sequence, where widescreen panorama is made by projecting multiple-image montages simultaneously on three screens. Blu-ray is waiting on the shelf.

Big personal impact: Elvis (2022): I wasn’t prepared for the narrative where female gaze and male vulnerability are allowed and validated.

You like, but everyone hates: Angels & Demons (2009): Don’t know today’s reception but when it was released the film was heavily criticized by the critics and the audience. I like both this and The Da Vinci Code (2006), but having more convincing characters, plot and hold for the entirety makes it better than the first one.

Underrated: The Ninth Gate (1999): Polanski is a very contradictory director for his sexual abuse charges, therefore it feels shameful to admit liking his films or considering his films to be valued. Many find Gate as a dull thriller. The film doesn’t rely on jump scares or gore but the mystery around the occult books and the things you can’t see. 

"Why do I like this?": Bachelor Party (1984): This is my favourite question of them all. I discussed with @faisonsunreve about on what basis you should answer this and does it reveal your true movie taste. The 80’s crazy comedy is a silly and out-dated genre and that is why the films of this era fascinate me. Bachelor Party is full of lame humor and over-the-top characters. Yet the storyline is versatile and entertaining. Young Tom Hanks embodies the past. 

Great soundtrack: La Cage aux Folles (1978): Ennio Morricone has said first he has to understand the film, the images, the story and the director’s intentions before starting to compose. I would like to know his study for Folles, because the soundtrack has such a humorous, characteristic and warm sound. 

That cinematography: Furiant (2015): I was balancing between Tinker Tailor Soldier Spy (2011) and La double vie de Véronique (1991), but this short film stands out with the way the rural landscapes, the dimly lit rooms and the unspoken moments are visualized (and edited) by the producer, director, writer, cinematographer and editor Ondřej Hudeček.

Criminally overlooked: Angélique film series (1964-68): Yes, you could put almost any Conrad Veidt film here, however I chose this. I have been fond of Angélique films since I was a child. These spectacles tell the story of Angélique in the time of King Louis XIV of France. Romance, adventure, scheming with breathtaking soundtrack and costume design, beautiful Michèle Mercier in the leading role and the flashy way of speaking French offer us an exquisite interpretation from the 60’s. 

Favorite active director: Peter Strickland: I have seen only The Duke of Burgundy (2014) and Flux Gourmet (2022), nevertheless his style of using the aesthetics of Italian genre films and the intimacy he creates is just heartwarming.

Anyone who wants to make their own version, please do and let me know. 📼📀📦🔦

i watched three men and a baby for one reason and one reason only, and that was dave foley being credited as a nameless stock boy and i'm the kinda person who will absolutely watch an entire movie for five seconds of a specific guy, but it honestly might be one of my new comfort movies

Kyutaro needed to stop being such a pussy and join the main cast so the anime could have turned into that film, “Three Men and a Baby”.

[daicussaurio]

As an aromantic (not ace), this is the representation i want

Jack: “I’m not a child! I am the son of Lucifer. I am a hunter! I am a Winchester!”

Me: He said he’s a Winchester! 😭😭😭😭

I love Lily as a character but I will merc her in a millisecond if it means that I can have Single Dad!James.

The fluffiest situations with toddler Harry learning to be an absolute menace from Sirius and baking cookies with Remus.

Three men and a baby vibes. But very gay. So very gay.
