Jennifer Aniston’s The Baster Needs a New Name

Vulture hears that as a result of focus-group testing, Disney is changing the title of The Baster, the upcoming Jennifer Aniston–Jason Bateman artificial-insemination comedy. The film (based on Jeffrey Eugenides’s 1996 short story) is about a woman who gets pregnant via a sperm bank and a turkey baster, and seven years later finds out that her best pal secretly swapped in his own sperm. The studio hasn’t yet decided on an alternate title. Might we suggest Seed Ya Later? No? Fine, then you do better below. (And please, no Loads of Trouble. We already thought of it and dismissed it as beneath us.)
