Walt Disney Home Video is notorious for treating Disneys films theatrical or otherwise with reverence and Godlike status. Was the Revenge Of The Nerds series a prophetic vision of our present Club.

Dowd examines film franchises, studying how they change and evolve with each new installment. Fair warning Spoilers are inevitable. Long before Chris Hardwick hosted TV shows, Rivers Cuomo set X Men references to power chords, and your dad knew everything about computers, nerd was still a four letter word. Pinpointing the exact moment that changedwhen the word became something people call themselves, not an insult to sling at othersis basically impossible. But the writing was on the wall as early as 1. Revenge Of The Nerds let its freak flag fly. Soon, others are rising to their feet in a show of solidarity, proudly admitting the same. Was this the first pop culture reclamation of the word Did Gilbert and his big coming out speech open the floodgates for self identifying nerds everywhere Or is all that just a bit too much cultural freight to put on a movie featuring a belching contest between characters named Booger and Ogre The Revenge Of The Nerds series is a quintessential product of its eraa franchise that could only have been born in the pre web years, when being good with computers was still the purview of so called geeks and losers. The original film was released in 1. Mac came out, while the fourth and final installment arrived in 1. Windows 9. 5 hit stores. Thats a decade of momentous change, both cultural and technological. No wonder each Revenge sequel seems less essential than the last The very definition of nerd was changing by the year, becoming less meaningful as the Internet began to obliterate the distance between mainstream interests and fringe ones. Look at the team makeup Gilbert and his best bud Lewis Robert Carradine, whose big teeth and snorting laugh make him prime wedgie material, certainly fit the egghead bill.

Scott, whos gay, and Booger Curtis Armstrong, whos a slob with bad hygiene. Really, the only thing these characters have in common is that theyre all social pariahs. Revenge Of The Outcasts might have been a more appropriate title. The films exist in a strange alternate universe where specific prejudicesbased on class, race, sexual orientation, and so forthhave been replaced by a general mistrust of Otherness. The villainous jocks hate the Lambdas only because theyre different, not for how theyre different. The Revenge world is one of very efficient intolerance Why be specifically homophobic or racist when you can just call them all nerds and be done with it The series thus functions as a crude civil rights parable, with later entries making that connection more explicit. The original Revenge remains the highlight, mostly by virtue of its uneasy blend of sweetness and raunch. A slobs vs. snobs comedy in which the slobs have been replaced by the painfully uncool, Revenge Of The Nerds follows the university warfare template set by Animal House. They form a fraternity to gain better housing, convincing the head of the otherwise all black Lambda Lambda Lambda organization to grant them probationary membership. But will the Alpha Betas find a way to force them out of their new home, too This being a college comedy, there are panty raids, keg parties, and a climactic frat Olympics, during which the heroes prove their stealth hipness by briefly transforming into a new wave band. Yet, like its small screen descendant The Big Bang Theory, the film celebrates its nerds by reducing them to outrageous stereotypes, not so far removed from how real jocks might see their meeker classmates. While its nice, for example, that the guys are okay with Lamar being gay, the film also finds him winning the javelin event thanks to his limp wrist throwing style. As anyone whos been called Poindexter can attest, being lumped in with the nerds of Revenge Of The Nerds is not flattering. The movies an underdog story for the overdogs. Of course, you could also argue that Revenge is an equal opportunity offender, painting its BMOC villains as moronic party animals and their sorority girl counterparts as bitchy bimbos. The latter, especially, take a lot of abusesometimes literally speaking. Like Meatballs or Porkys or any of the decades other boys behaving badly comedies, Revenge revels in sophomoric sexual high jinks, but the gags occasionally shade from innocuously pervy to downright creepy. In the films worst moment, Lewis masquerades as the villain, Alpha Beta leader Stan Ted Mc. Ginley, in order to screw his girlfriend, Pi Delta Pi cheerleader Betty Julia Montgomery. Rather than being horrified to discover that shes basically been raped by a stranger, Betty swoons for her nerd conqueror. She also instantly forgives the fact that Lewis has been disseminating naked photos of her across campus. Its enough to make your skin crawl. To the chagrin of horny teenagers everywhere, the Revenge sequels basically eliminated all traces of T A. Edwards appears in only three scenes of the first sequel, his Gilbert stuck at home with a broken leg while Lewis leads the group to a frat conference in Fort Lauderdale. The series mainstays are Lewis, who becomes the fearless leader in Gilberts absence, and Booger, who takes center stage in Revenge Of The Nerds IV Nerds In Love. Armstrong, who went on to become a somewhat ubiquitous character actor, adds an invaluably energetic flavor, his Booger an unlikely ace in the franchises hole or nostril, as it were. All the sequels are misjudged, but for very different reasons. Revenge Of The Nerds II Nerds In Paradise 1. Beginning again with a road trip, the film soon finds the nerds getting kicked out of their lodging a Florida hotel, finding lousy new lodging a much shittier Florida hotel, trusting the villains and paying for it, sparring with the heads of another frat counsel, throwing their own party, and stopping the movie cold with a musical performance. Theres also a go nowhere subplot in which Blade Runners James Hong teaches Booger how to hock a loogie from the soul, as well as a new love interest for Lewis, even as the film more than once reminds viewers that hes still with Betty. Hes shockingly convincing in the part. The series moved to television in 1. Revenge Of The Nerds III The Next Generation. As its title suggests, the movie features a new class of nerds, including Lewis snorting nephew Gregg Binkley and an obese British student John Pinette inexplicably brought back for the final installment. Resembling one of those what if TV episodes in which the pre established rules are turned on their ear, Next Generation finds the boys alma mater, Adams College, now run by the mouth breathers. His old rival, Stan, tricks him into supporting his campaign for dean, in a dastardly scheme to win the campus back for the athletes. Thats not the worst idea for a Revenge sequelin theory, it beats the copy job that Paradise performedand Next Generation gets by briefly on the novelty of its bizarro world conceit. But laughs are in very short supply The mischievous spirit of the original is an ancient memory, replaced by a much more sanitized vision of college mayhem. One of the pranks, which makes approximately zero sense, finds the boring new nerds rigging a rivals shower with paint, so that he emerges looking like either a candy cane or a barber pole, depending on who you ask. The screenplay, written by three of the authors of the first Revenge, leans much too heavily on the phony friendship between Stan and Lewis, waiting until the final third to let the latter become his old self again.
