Then He Kissed Me!

Ok, now I must include the best getting ready for a date scene from an 80's movie.  Elisabeth Shue in "Adventures in Babysitting" getting ready for the best night of her life with... Bradley Whitford (Josh Lyman!).  What?  I know.  But aren't they supposed to be in high school?  Of course.   Why is he trying so hard to do his best Dylan McKay impression when 90210 won't be on for another 5 years??  I don't know.  Then after all the getting ready, and Bradley Whitford doing his sexy-guy face he goes on to stand her up!  But all works out!  And she ends up making out with the the dreamy fiance from "Father of the Bride!" 

This below is of course a most faithful reenaction of what it is like to get ready for a date, missing only pre-partying to the Notebook, and of course doing an "If They Mated" photo collage of what future offspring would look like.  

Enjoy!
