Napoleon Dynamite, all I got to say. Such an amazing movie, no matter how many times I watch it. Reminds me of my highschool, to the point of being hysterical

What's yours?

Real Genius

comes up to par with napoleon dynamite, but this movie is better than ND, because william atherton is the villian, the mental breakdown by mitch was hillarious, the popcorn in the house was genius, and tears for fears "everybody wants to rule the world" to close out the movie is great.

Napoleon Dyamite can't hold a candle to Real Genius imo, but they are very different movies. I couldn't get halfway through Napoleon before I had to shut it off.

I felt the same way about Napoleon the first time I watched it, I had nothing but bad things to say about it. But to be completely fair, it really IS a movie that gets better after 2 or 3 viewings, I really enjoy watching it these days.

Would Monty Python and the Holy Grail count as a nerd movie?

I would classify it as one.
