In revenge of the nerds they sold naked pictures of a fellow college student without her consent. How did they not get in trouble for that? That movie is beyond disturbing.

Well, there's also the rape scene that leads to true love.

They honestly kind of deserved to have their house smashed at the end.

Because the writers didn't want them to get into trouble. It isn't as if the movie is meant to be realistic.

There's not being realistic, then there's just plain disturbing. These are supposed to be the good guys, so in my opinion it's bad writing.

It is bad writing that doesn't matter very much in context with the movie. What I mean is that the movie isn't good in the first place and the nerds lose our sympathy when the main nerd rapes that girl. It isn't all that disturbing to me though, because it isn't really done in a disturbing way. It is all context. The writers are suggesting that the popular kids deserve everything they got and it is purposely done in bad taste. The 80's is ripe with teen movies that are notoriously non-PC.

It was done back in the time before there were so many concerns about it. Plus it's a movie where in the movies everyone who wants revenge can get away with murder without an investigation. What I find even more disturbing is they fill up a pie tin with nothing but whipped cream and call it pie! LOL That right there is a crime in itself.

I thought they were just keeping to themselves and then got picked on. But yeah. The nerds did some bad shit to.

I think the panty raid would have been enough revenge on them, but the setting up cameras thing is just peverted and not even funny. I don't get why that's in the movie.

Because it's for horny teenage boys.

Because it was the 1980's. Anything and everything was possible.
