When I was a kid I went on side jobs with my dad, who was a carpet layer. One weekend he told me we were going to a special job. We did the job and nothing at all seemed special but he kept telling me, "you'll see". When Revenge of the Nerds came out, he took me to see it and thats when I realized we had installed the carpet in the Lambda house. True story.
That’s cool!!! Would be awesome if he took pics of you in those rooms. ☺️
That's pretty great!
Dude, thats a GREAT share!!! WOW.
Awesome
Yer dad, when you were a KID, took you to see Revenge of the Nerds? The theatre let a KID in to see that movie? Cool dad
Clap your hands everybody, and everybody clap your hands!
We're Lambda Lambda Lambda and... Omega Mu
We come here on stage tonight to do a show for you
We've got a rockin rhythm and a high tech sound
That'll make you move your body down to the ground
We've got Poindexter on the violin
And Louis and Gilbert will be joinin' in
We've got Booger Presley on a mean guitar
And a rap by little old me Lamar
We've got Takashi beating on his gong
The boys and the Mu's are clapping along
And just when you thought you'd seen it all
Along comes a Lambda 4 ft tall!
So won't you come on out here, on the floor,
so we can work our bodies like never before
Break!
Thought I was looking at my mom's old douche bag but that's back in Ohio.
There are so many great lines in this movie!!
No on 19!

Nothing is better than the original.
1984 - "No one will be safe until nerd persecution ends"
2020 - Our time has come!
Nobody in 1984, didn't think something would happen in 2020 that would change everything in this earth.
Most of those who enjoyed "Nerds" should also enjoy "Real Genius," which came out a year later. Michelle Meyrink was also in that one and has a far better part. The then-unknown Val Kilmer stars in it and has some of the funniest lines I ever heard in a comedy.
Real Genius is one of my all time faves!!
@@iChristyD "I was thinking of the immortal words of Socrates, when he said, 'I drank what?'"
I have watched Real Genius but I found it quite dull. Val kilmer does a good job at playing Chris Knight however the pacing is Incredibly slow. I wanted to enjoy it but I was bored out of my brains. I may give it another chance.

She's freaking gorgeous
For some reason, I'm hungry for some popcorn 😁
If you think about it...Eddie Murphy has done the 'Nerd Laugh' his whole life.
RICO GOLDSTAR But the nerd laughed, came before the Eddie Murphy laugh. So, you should say, Eddie Murphy ripped off of the nerds.
@@robertelee467 Eddie Murphy was born way before that movie, and Eddie Murphy began doing stand-up comedy as a teenager before that movie came out.
facts
Horshack was doing that laugh as the nerd on Welcome Back, Kotter before Eddie Murphy was around.
@@djbanzai True, I never said he didn't. But more people, especially millennials, know who Eddie Murphy is and are familiar with his laugh. Most younger peeps today would be like, "Who the F is HORSHACK"?
"WE HAVE BUSH!!" Best line for Booger.
This was from the sequel which was my favorite. Such good memories of my childhood
Better than the VIP “very immense penis” line?
We have bush was a line from the first movie
@@davestanford4103 Correct, my mistake. First movie he's referring to seeing bush on a woman. Second movie he's referring to weed when they got stranded on the island :)
Hair pie? Zank you. 😆
One of the greatest 80s movies ever...
It could never be made today though. Anything funny in the past upsets snowflakes.
We’ve got bush!!!!!!!!
Revenge of the Nerds is a comedy classic! I have loved this movie ever since the 80s. I knew Ted McGinley as Stan Gable before he was Jefferson D'Arcy.
I was a nerd in school during the 80's, and it was a living hell. I self loathed myself so much that I enlisted in the Army. . . .Funny thing was, a lot of other nerds had the same idea. Some of my best friends in life came from that experience. . . . it also allowed me to be able to embrace who I was. . . Im now approaching 50, still a nerd and very proud of it. You could say that Revenge of the Nerds was a beacon of hope for many just waiting to escape school and join the real world.
The "Nerds" are the ones who make the money, and get the beautiful women, later on in life!!
I was a punk in the 80s and the nerds were the guys we played Dungeons and Dragons with, so we didn't let anyone mess with them. Good time! The nerds ran the school for three years.
The 80s ruled
@@sid2112 It surprised me so much when Vin Deisel gave an interview where he showed he really did play Dungeons and Dragons because he name checked the manuals and mentioned the Complete Stratagist. It really shouldn't have because in my college D&D group not everybody was what would traditionally be considered a Nerd.
Glad you hung in there. BTW what you said reminded me that during commercial breaks for Alias (a show where the mains are very physically adept spies although Marshal their tech guy was also important) they would show commercials trying to recruit Nerds for the CIA because as the commercial said they don't just need people to rapell down walls, they need people to build robot mosquitoes with tiny cameras in them.
I think Poindexter's look was an inspiration to Napoleon Dynamite. Especially the thrift store suit!
I may have to agree with you on that.👍
Napoleon Dynomite was the real nerd. Few like his type. Minty is wrong about times changing for nerd. Nerds were never into anything trendy. Thus, paradoxically nulling modern "nerds" to hipsters.
@@coreym162 I’d have to agree. Nerds were never trending. Geeks? Now we’re are in fact socially acceptable. 😂
I can see that
Never thought of that, but makes total sense!!!
Liquid heat scene was the best hilarious moment of the whole movie
“I’ve been combing the high schools all day”.
Fun Fact: Toshiro Takashi's actor Brian Tochi is also well known for voicing our favorite leader in blue Leonardo, in the 90's trilogy of films Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles.
He also (kind of) reprised the role in Police Academy 3 & 4.
@@Shred_The_Weapon I need to watch those films, all of them are on Netflix.
I hate to say it, Tony Mata - but Netflix pulled them at the beginning of May. Such a drag, because I’ve always enjoyed them.
@@Shred_The_Weapon dang it, should have done it sooner. 😑
Very sorry, Tony Mata.
Once the hot girls started figuring out that these tech savvy ‘nerds’ were worth millions, the stigma faded pretty damn quick.
American Pie Beta House 🤣🤣💯💯
bi0lizard1 like when Louis married the hot cheerleader in part 3? Lol
Go Bucs but that was the girl he won over in part 1. And he was “theoretically “ already married to her by that time.
they dont make their own fraterity, they joined a historicly black fraternity
They try to make their own first I believe... that was the "thumbs down" scene.
They created there own chapter on there campus
" Don't remake classics, make something original!" Couldnt have said it better myself. This is why you're awesome Minty! Keep up the good work my friend.
This is a movie, like Porky's, that can never be remade in it's original spirit. Today is too PC to ever allow the same joke level.
I disagree. There are still movies being made that push the envelope of good taste and political correctness. I will say this, I wouldn't want a movie like this to ever be remade, especially in its original spirit. Movies like this, Porky's, Caddyshack, etc, are very much a product of their time/era and if they were remade verbatim they would very anachronistic. However, some of the themes are still very relevant today.
Lucas Mayes and thats why id rather go back to that great time anyday...modern society truly sucks...
@Lucas Mayes - 100%. Someone would throw a fit! Movies like Trading Places, Beverly Hills Cop, Robocop (1987), Blazing Saddles, Airplane, and MANY others that we laughed along with back in the day could NEVER be made today!
@@Tom_Van_Zandt Sorry, bud. You're deluding yourself if you think they could be made these days. It seems like you've gotten too used to the current political climate and built yourself a bubble.
@@Tom_Van_Zandt Agreed, many of these movies are definitely a product of their times and wouldn't do well today because many people wouldn't be able to relate. Try to remake them with today's sensibilities to try to make them more relatable, they lose a lot of their appeal because things have changed too much for these kinds of movies to work.
This movie is a classic!! The javelin throw still makes me laugh to this day!!
It was specially designed for his limp wrists throwing style, 😆
That and when Toshiro was doing the bike race, "Toshiro how are you feeling?" after his 18th beer And he answers, "f××king great!" 2 of my favs during the greek competition but there's so many more too!
Three cult classic movies filmed in Tucson in a short period in the early 80s. Revenge of the Nerds, Can't Buy Me Love and The Wraith. Just One of the Guys was filmed in Scottsdale about the same time.
In Brazil the title is "A vingança dos Nerds". But "Nerd" was a word never used in portuguese until these film. We can say that the term was introduced in my country by this series of movies.
we use to live in the jock frat house at the UofA they even had a ton of old photos and props from the movie in the basement.
This movie is just as great now as it was in the 80's. that was such a fun era for comedies!
So, so true!!
IKR look at the shite they produce these days...80s was a golden era for comedy before the PC brigade arrived 🙄
This is from a time when being a nerd was still considered uncool. It still kind of annoys me the way nerd culture was hijacked by the mainstream. By the same people who rejected us for so long.
I can understand that
I can understand that
Take it as a compliment... Because at the root of it all, it really is.
I still find it difficult to forgive those who made fun of me relentlessly in high school for still being into comic books, video games and cartoons, only to see them now, over 20 years later, fully embracing the same things that I never "grew out of."
I remember seeing this movie in the 1980's at my College Movie Theater and the place was packed. I remember one student every 15 minutes yelling out " NERDS!" Fond memories of my early 20's with this movie. Cheers!
My favorite part was the DEVO scene. *DEVO with a violin.* Got to love it.
Fun fact: ' Booger' played 'Snot' in American Dad
Andystar He also played Dan on Dan Vs.
@@EvaFull As well as the scribe of God in Supernatural.
He was the video rental guy in Moody's Point.
They mention the moon room scene in an episode, and Snot claims he never saw Revenge of the Nerds hahaha
I thought it was a booger but it's snot.
Another fun fact, next to Porky's this movie has the highest amount of felonies committed by students in a film
I tried counting the felonies and fell asleep
Nerds wins hand down with rape, I don't think that happened in Porky's.
@@DerekScottBland ballbreaker had a firm grasp on a tallywhacker tho...
Nice my dad likes that movie
"Stand aside Mama I wanna see some of that Muff!!!
Ohhhh Hair 🥧 " 🤤😍
If this movie was released today, Cancel Culture would’ve torn this movie apart.
There are some effed up things in it lol
@@Kaboomboo some effed up, funny things....😁
Grow up you snowflake conservative, go back to your safe spaces
the "offended liberals" would do the same thing. Politically incorrect was allowed to make people laugh!
Because they can't take a joke unless they are the ones telling them about conservatives.
Just discovered this channel and am now averaging watching one or two videos a day. It's like we shared a childhood :)
"Excuse, please. But why do they call you Booger?"
"I dunno" (picking his nose)
LOVE IT LMAO
“Excuse, prease.”
Believe me when I say this, being a nerd in the early 80s wasn't fun, we got picked on and bullied and it was certainly not fun times and now it's cool to be a nerd...... you're welcome.
Try being a nerd in the mid 1960s before Flower Power even made the scene. I was bounced ofv a few lockers by total strangers in high school. It built my character and left me with a lifetime distaste for the sort of low IQ bullies who go in for sports and never read a book. You can tell I'm still rather bitter. Revenge of the Nerds was like a salve on my psychic wounds.
It sucked. I stopped playing D&D and doing some other nerd things as soon as I got into high school because "it wasn't cool". I never stopped reading or or watching what I wanted when I was alone, but I did the sports thing and it was almost impossible to have nerd friends AND jock friends (I didn't turn into a bully, I just didn't have time for both). Fact is, the hot girls were all at the "cool" parties, and that's where the beer and music was too, so that's where I was - but I feel like I was forced to choose and I was robbed of my nerdish tendencies because of the era. I envy kids that could be jocks AND be nerds AND be cool.
Stuffed into a locker and gassed with an entire can of Right Guard sprayed into the vents.
@@nickh5081 I used to hang out with nerds and jocks in high school. I wasn't classified with the nerds but I wasn't a jock either. I was in the middle
@@gator9339 Good for you. I barely noticed it at the time, it's just looking back I realize that I grew apart from my "nerdy" friends - mainly because I didn't have (make) time for them. Considering I never became a professional athlete, I probably made the wrong choice!
Somehow "boogah" just doesn't have the same punch as "Booger" 😂
Robert Carradine(Lewis) and Curtis Armstrong (Booger) hosted a reality show from 2013 to 2015 called "King of the Nerds" which invited contestants to compete in making "Nerdy" things like robots, superheroes, and Rube Golberg machines. Also, my favorite ongoing reincarnation of Revenge of the Nerds is Steve Smith and his group of nerdy friends on the American Dad animated show. Curtis Armstrong plays a friend of Steve's named "Snot," which is basically just Booger in younger, cartoon form.
When making a funny movie was just about making a funny movie, not a political statement, or worrying you might offend someone
Oh gawd shut up. How many times you idiots gonna repeat the same shit
@@Food4thought1234 You shut up. He is absolutely right.
@@Food4thought1234 ah. A Know Nothing Liberal here I see.
@@patrckhh20 You shut up! Some of those criticisms are legitimate but you arrogant hypocrites don't seem to care until YOUR feelings get hurt. Sure sounds like a bully to me
Richard Andrews No, you shut up. No, you shut up. No, you shut up...etc....
Watching this movie as a kid, my favorite part was the nudity. Now as a grown up, my favorite part is still the nudity.

Bush! I see Buuuush!😂
👍👍😀😀😀😀😀😀
I STILL LOVE THIS MOVIE I COME OUT OF HIGH SCHOOL IN 1984 🍺🍺🍺
This was my FAVORITE movie when I was a kid. I must have watched it over a hundred times. This is such a treat. Thanks for making it!
If video stores were still a thing, I would totally rent "Minty's choice"!
Your love of nostalgia makes me happy!😃🌈
"Nerds?! NEEEEERRRDS!!"
When I was a kid in the late 80s I honestly thought Booger was MCA from Beastie Boys.
Revenge Of The Nerds was one of my favorite comedies and had a great message.
So many one liners and so awesome. So awesome.
I first saw this movie around 1987. I was 13. I literally cried when the nerds prevailed. I still LOVE this movie. I quote it all the time. For example, I randomly tell people that whatever they are doing has been "modified to accommodate their limp-writsted throwing style" :-)
They didn't form their own fraternity. Lamda Lamda Lamda was an all African American frat. They didn't send a picture to them.
They couldn't get into any of the fraternities already established on campus, so they got together and formed their own chapter for that campus.
Right. Their own chapter. Not a new fraternity.
@Green Giant lol. If you say so bro!!
@Green Giant actually they were/are called multicultural fraternities. And yeah bud the late 70s and early 80s was when African American became the preferred nomenclature. Nigro Black and colored where all used in bad taste by the time this movie came out
@Green Giant In the Greek system they have been called multicultural forever. The only place I could see them being called a black frat would be at a HBCU. Yes we all know them as black frats im just saying your first comment said Afro-American didn't exist in the 80s but it really did and thats when ppl started using more commonly to describe Black ppl and Black frats aren't a thing like even in the 80s they were called multicultural
Minty- My favorite comedy of all time!!! Awesome!!
“If you can accept it’s just a movie and not real....”
You’re asking for a miracle there.
I always laughed at Booger’s shirt in the movie that read “give me head until I’m dead” lol
He always had funny clothes. Pretty sure he had a who farted shirt too
What about his shirt that's all burnt up with holes and it says
who farted?
"High on stress"
I had seen this dozens of times on cable as a kid and was shocked to see it unedited as an adult when it came out on DVD😂
"We have bush!"
"SHOCKED?"
What is Wrong with you.
I saw this as a young kid. I was picking out videos at the store to rent (VHS) and my mom let me get it because the cover looked funny and I guess she so no harm in a nerds movie. You really don't know what you are looking at when you are that young like i was, but I don't remember it being a big deal to me and my mother didn't watch it with me when I watched it. My first boob I ever saw in a movie though was Back to School with Rodney Dangerfield......I seen Revenge of the Nerds not too long after.
@@Mr.White10-65 if only your mom knew what was in the movie!! 🤣
@@timmason7430 In the 80's plenty of younger kids watched Revenge of the Nerds on basic cable first. I don't think kids were expecting a giant bush when caught on HBO or Cinemax. I mean nudity and swearing was common but that's a giant bush on screen!
I was a sophomore at The University of Arizona in Tucson while they filmed the picture. I remember being pissed that Bear Down Gym was closed for a couple of weeks for filming so we couldn't play pick-up basketball...but since I wasn't a Frat Rat, I ended up loving the movie. Bear Down!
Minty, Thanks for this one! I probably watched this movie 50 times on cable as a teen and always laughed and felt inspired since I was kind of a nerd then. I also want to thank you for addressing the Moon Room scene, as it is very problematic. I wondered if you'd bring up the elephant in the room, and I'm glad to see you did as ignoring it would really have been the wrong move. Love your videos! Keep it up!
"I thought I was looking at my mother's old douche-bag, but that's in Ohio" - best line ever. This is one of my fave movies, I have lost count of the amount of times I have seen it since I first saw it in 1985. It's a lot better than Animal House. This movie also has, I reckon, one of the greatest music numbers ever. Please do not remake this, ever.
I totally agree with you it's an absolute classic and should never be remade and it's got some of the funniest lines ever put to a film.
I forgot totally about that line, so when I read it, I burst out laughing.
Honestly it’s my fav movie lol I’ve watched it thousands of times over the years and it never gets old haha
oh yes, when I didn't even know what it meant I remembered that line!
I own the boxed set, all 4 of them
One of the first dvds i ever bought, took me way back to being a kid watching this movie during school holidays, so many jokes i was too young to pick up on when i was a kid. still a good laugh
When this movie came out in theaters, I was these character's ages-Just graduated from high school and about to start college in the summer of '84!
@Sean moynihan I bought a boxed set with all four films and it was called "Revenge of the nerds : The Atomic Wedgie Collection" lol.
@Sean moynihan I got it at the now sadly defunct "Hastings Entertainment", they also had a boxset of all the porky's movies but I never got around to buying that because that collection as well as the nerds one was well over 25 dollars and that was a bit much for my budget.
@Sean moynihan Now I officially feel old! LOL! Just kidding!
@Sean moynihan "Hastings"
When I was a kid I absolutely loved this movie and music along with it. Back in the day Showtime played this movie quite often and I never missed it because I had the TV guide hid in my room.✌️
Thank you for bringing lovely youth memories back, mate!
This was a great film .....very underrated. Very funny ....
underrated? I think this film is generally thought of as a comedy classic.
Bonus fact: Eddie Deezen(the ultimate 80s nerd) was considered TOO nerdy for the movie. He did audition for it, but was rejected. I know this, because he's a friend of mine, and he related this story.
He would have made a great Poindexter.
Oh my freakin' God, he would have been perfect for this movie!! He did typically play very high energy characters, maybe that's why, given most of the cast seems to be calm by comparison. Still, might have made a good foil for the rest of the gang, thinking even he was too nerdy by comparison. XD
that's too bad, but at least he was in War Games
You tell him "Yo Deez! You was the bomb in Midnight Madness!"
DaveFu 🤣🤣🤣🤣
Just subbed. You got me! Great videos and nice choices in movies you use. You'd have gotten along well w me and my crew as kids.
Watched it again last night! Laughed just as much as I did the first time I saw it, amazing how offended some people have become in the last few years.
You're amazed that people are offended by rape?
Well HOT DAMN! If this ain't a top classic from my youth... you've done it again you Minty genius!
And I'm here in the first hour, wtf?! Just saw Lavar in ur SpaceCamp vid yesterday!
Takashi: I think I have a frush
Booger: What the fuck is a frush?
Gave you a thumbs up just for your amazing background. Just wow.
Sir, you put a smile on my face during the COVID-19 crisis and I am still wearing it. That was not an easy thing to do. Thank you! Thank you! I appreciate your video!
The next year after Nerds Curtis Armstrong played a kind of similar role in the greatest teen romantic comedy movie ever made, Better Off Dead. Criminally underappreciated.
One small detail I loved about the end of Revenge of the Nerds is you see Ted McGinley seemingly genuinely moved by their plight. The continue this story line as he becomes friends and joins the nerds eventually in part 3.
You can suggest "Better Off Dead"
& other movies you love
to be added to
The National Film Registry.
YES Better Off Dead was awesome and underrated. Cusak and Curtis Armstrong did another somewhat similar movie called one Crazy Summer.
Better Off Dead is one of my favorite movies of all time. Every time you watch you pick up on another joke or funny prop.
I love Better off dead. Wait hold on a second...
This is Pure Snow!

" I think I froze the left half of my brain look I can't move my right arm"
One of my fav lined is when he tell Johnny that he can't talk/pay him his $2 because his grandma dropped acid, highjacked a bus full of peguins and his little brother got his arm stuck in a microwave so he can't talk right now.

The movie doesn't try to present itself as any more than a good time but has strong message of overcoming your personal obstacles and acceptance at it's core. Also, the actors flushed out the characters themselves and it results in a more sincere performance. Actors don't get that kind of freedom anymore. Revenge of The Needs is one of my favorites but it can't be replicated. It is a product of it's time, lighting in a bottle.
The part with booger at the fellas door asking for a room to rent still has the tears flowing down my face.
I attended the University of Arizona from 1983 - 1988, graduating with a BS in Systems Engineering. Note the name of the school - in the 80s, there was still a distinct difference between colleges and universities. Colleges were more of a fancy trade school and universities were snootier with real research departments. Not Arizona University or - god forbid - Arizona College. In the US - I know it isn't your fault you don't know - Universities are either University of or State University. UofA is in Tucson, ASU is in Tempe, right next door to Phoenix. So I was on campus towards the last of the filming. Being an Engr student, I mostly didn't notice or care about the film. There was some discussion, but engineering students are the nerds' nerds. And, yeah, we were called nerds. There was supposed to be an actual frat guy in the movie, but he was largely cut out. The very last scene was filmed at night in front of "Old Main" - the first building ever built back in 1887. I was an extra in that scene. It was winter, cold, and we weren't allowed to wear coats, but it was some easy money. I haven't watched the movie.
Dude, you gotta watch it!
Whaaaaaa.
You tell that whole story. Watched them make the movie. Acted in the back ground. Found this video and took the time comment.
And you’ve never seen the movie?? What a nerd.
@@JEEDUHCHRI So I am

Looking back on this vid brings a lot of happy college memories, genuinely funny and now a classic. :)
“I thought I was looking at my mother’s old douchebag but that’s in Ohio.” -Booger
VERY underrated line.
@@bluedragonrob1
It definitely is.
One of the greatest lines of all time
Siskel and Ebert, a couple nerds, liked this movie? No way.
This movie was filmed at the University of Arizona. Yes, it matters! LOL
an all-time fave 🤘😷 great vid!
I doubled for the Fire Breather in this movie. Great times filming.
Ogre?
@@robzilla730 I was in the fire scene with him. Nice guy.
@@betonarchese he was great in Bloodsport!
NO mention of JOHN GOODMAN!?! Excellent work, as always, Minty -- but you forgot the epic performance of John Goodman as Coach that added to the movie and humanized the Jocks.
Yo! I really enjoy your videos!!
Always cool to see when lightning in a bottle happens.
Hope one day Minty does one for Berry Gordy's The Last Dragon.
Sho nuff!
Funny enough RLM did a review on it with Macaulay Culkin and Mike had never seen it before then. That's like being a child of the 80s and never seeing the goonies. How could such a thing happen?
I upvote this!!!
Another movie I Love.
“LEROY!!!”
I said get yo hands off my women!
"That's my pie"
- Stan
This movie is a timeless classic and to this day I never get tired of watching it. I a nerd myself really appreciate a movie like this.
A scene in the movie that I always found poignant is Lewis and Gilbert's conversation after the Betas trashed their house.
Gilbert: "We'll run the Greek council next year..."
Lewis: "WHO CARES? You'll be dead by then Gilbert."
Up to that very point, Lewis was the eternal optimist and Gilbert was the cynic realist about their status as nerds. Lewis breaks out of his chipper, goofy optimism and Gilbert tries to retreat into it, but Lewis brings him back down to Earth.
Lewis is a RAPIST...
"We've got bush."
Hair Pie!!
Minty, please do "Better Off Dead"! It's a classic!
Especially the 67 Camaro!
And "One Crazy Summer"
@David JediBob Better off Dead and One Crazy Summer are two of my favorite movies! Fricken hilarious!!
Thanks @Minty! I've been waiting for this one!
The Revenge of the Nerds franchise is awesome. I love the first movie it is my favorite of the franchise. As a kid that got picked on in high school this movie gave me HOPE! Great job Minty!
You did a terrific job of covering this movie. Definitely a favorite of the 80s.
Love this channel, keep up the great work
It was filmed at the University of Arizona.
The route that Gilbert and Lewis take while walking around to get to their dorm goes in the complete opposite direction from where their dorm is located, which is one street south of where they were dropped off(Social Science building).
You do great work kid ;-) Keep it up, thanks
This movie and Real Genius were two of my favorite films from the 1980's.
Been waiting for you to do this for years 😊
This is back in the day when we learned to stand up for ourselves, build a self esteem that was stronger than their insults, and learned to embrace who we are. Now it’s cancel culture and reeeee in the internet.
Love your channel :)
That’s where George McFly got his laugh
Class Act brother love the content!!!
Proud to say I worked with James Cromwell on a movie called Still Mine. He was such a down-to-earth and friendly guy. He loved our tea, but not the cold weather. Can't argue.
Your consistency is on another level my dude! Top notch!
Classic Film!
Extra Bonus: The word "Nerd" was first used by Dr. Seuss in the 1950s book "If I ran the Zoo"
Wow. And now that book is canceled.
@@Kingkdub first thing I thought too but then, they've tried cancelling this movie as well.
Discovering this masterpiece late night on HBO in the 2nd grade was pure awesome!
Siskel and Ebert and others loved it, because it had a heart. The final speech by Lewis, and the nerd alumni coming out of the audience is a real tear-jerker. Put the whole show on a higher emotional plane.
Be I agree
Booger's belching contest entry is also incredible humor 😀
I agree
