I LOVED Revenge of the Nerds. Not so much Nerds II. But I went to college with WAY too many of those guys.

It was really nice to see a woman whose sole character note isn't just that she's female - she's hyperactive, a compulsive knitter, insanely smart, a little bit awkward, and very charming. Actual character traits! Yay! Also, not just a sex object! More yay!
LOVE Real Genius. A very clever, well-written, funny movie, one of my faves from the 80's.

Chris: Was it a dream where you see yourself standing in sort of sun-god robes on a pyramid with a thousand naked women screaming and throwing little pickles at you?
Mitch: No...
Chris: Why am I the only one who has that dream? [/INDENT]

It's from the Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy, followed shortly thereafter by:

"We have normality, I repeat we have normality. Anything you still can’t cope with is therefore your own problem."

When I first made my hubby watch Real Genius, he turned to me and said "Did they base that character on you?!?" I was not insulted. I never stop talking, my mind goes 100 miles a minute and I have difficulty falling asleep ('cause of all the things rattling around in my brain).

Mitch: "And, Ken, stop playing with yourself."
Ken (in an awed voice): "It is Jesus....."

yes, but do you stay up at night stripping and refinishing your wood floors?
