      The visual joke is compounded by the fact that Larry B. Scott, the actor who plays Lamar, is clearly extremely athletic, muscular -- totally cut. I have no doubt he could throw a javelin across the whole campus, with no help from Wormser.

    Whoever wrote that scene is a genius. Every time I watch it I get chills, there is just something about the electric violin that is hypnotic and encompasses the Eighties. I was just a kid when this movie came out, but never forgot this song and how catchy it is. We need more bands today that experiment with electric violins, bands that have the courage to bring back the synths/guitar combo of 80’s rock.

      don't bink ** exactly! They are highly coveted. I see 808 parts here and there but, working units are rare. They were so pricy then too. Wiki says they were $1,195 new in 1983. im not sure if that's adjusted for inflation but, i only bought used ones and parts anyway. if its not adjusted that's $3012.23! A current car down payment! lol-- I miss that boom bap! The best of producers are sitting on them!

Could buy them from rogue music, they had adverts in the back of keyboard magazine thoughout the 80s/90s.

    In the 80’s misfits were a departure from the slasher move kids of the late 70’s and early 80’s. They showed us that being different wasn’t a curse that our differences helped us understand each other’s similarities. Relating to one another was how we would survive our world and in the end we are all Nerds

    Every time I watch the Revenge of the Nerds talent show scene, I get CHILLS-absolute goosebumps from head to toe!! It’s not just a performance; it’s a complete MASTERPIECE! The moment that guitar riff kicks in, I feel like my entire soul is being lifted into the stratosphere! These guys don’t just own the stage; they DOMINATE it like they were born to be rock gods! It’s pure, unfiltered genius! The energy, the vibes, the nerdy passion-AHH! It’s like the embodiment of underdog victory in musical form! Every. Single. Beat. sends my heart racing with excitement! Honestly, if this doesn’t make you jump out of your seat and cheer, are you even ALIVE?!?
    The outfits? ICONIC. The lights? BLINDINGLY awesome! I mean, come on, that synthesizer solo? My brain EXPLODES with joy every time! It’s like watching the ultimate power move unfold right in front of your eyes-nothing can top it! This scene is basically cinematic GOLD, forever engraved in my heart as the most EPIC moment in movie history.
