I’m so glad Ogre is still alive, I didn’t think he’d make it.

Ah yes both my parents struggling laid off from the auto industry. About to lose our house. Interest rates through the roof. Crazy inflation (for back then). Yes you're right. It was magical!🙄

I would put the Karate Kid as another great Movie that came out that year. It was also about overcoming Bullying.

The Warriors changed the the game tho, that move was different it was the true definition of a movie none of tht computer stuff

[@Soulessdeeds]

I am so blessed to have grown up in the 80s and 90s. The movies music and TV was so amazing. We were drowning in the creativity and brilliance so beloved still to this day.

[@0kneelbeforezod0]

I cant believe no one has floated a “Middle Aged Nerds” concept like a Big Chill type college reunion concept (except no one dies). Seeing these guys together on film again would be amazing. One of my favorite movies growing up.

[@atrain132]

No!! The 1st one was a classic. They didn't need parts 2, 3, or 4. The first one is a type of movie you just simply leave alone, and never make a sequel, prequel, or reunion.

[@stevef.8708]

@@atrain132I disagree. Enough time has passed. We need a reunion now.

[@amram1305]

So nice to come up in the 80s.

[@haro82]

They wouldn't even let there be nerds to begin with. It's sad an offended few have ensured that comedy basically doesn't exist anymore. They're OK with all the violence...just can't have comedy.

Altho...there was much hair pie in "harold & kumar escape from guantanamo bay".

Holy crap thank you for this. The first two Nerds movies are classic!

I forget all the names but see Ogre, Booger, Lewis, Poindexter and Takashi. I dont recognize the guy on top right, unless thats Wormser lol.

Fast times at ridgemont high is another classic.

So many freaking hilarious parts in that movie. The belching contest is one of my favorites. Booger tosses his cigarette into Ogre's beer as he steps up to the microphone. The second one is good too. There's a part where one of them is talking on the phone in the foreground and we see Ogre in the background with his back to us taking the world's longest whiz. It's way funnier than it sounds.
