I DVR it every time it's on, and save it for awhile. I still can't believe I don't own it. It's pure joy to watch. Not verbatim but,

"I remember the immortal words of Socrates who said...I drank what?"

That lines gets me every time.

S.J.

I howled at that line when this movie came out....still do!

Definitely a classic. I was in high school when that came out. The Science Club was almost a perfect match up of the cast.

this is somewhat directed to the younger generations. It's a little outdated, but funny and a nice watch 7/10

Oh, the line where Deborah Foreman's character asks Chris Knight, played by Val Kilmer..

"Can you hammer a 6'' spike thru a board with your penis?"

"Not yet."

"A girl's gotta have her standards."

that's a colorful exchange.

@Dude111 a good bookend for Real Genius is The Sure Thing w/ John Cusack. College centric and very funny.

Many are amazed when they find out that Laszlo (that was the guy living in the boiler room right) was Uncle Rico in Napoleon Dynamite.

Napoleon's Grandma was also in it as Dr. Meredith's wife

Always loved this movie. One of my favorites of the 80's. Loved the popcorn house. The laser beam going thru the buildings to the burger joint. Makes me want to watch it again.

Everything is so right w/this movie!!

I was worried when I ordered my VHS of it I was gonna get a bad copy (digitally mastered) but thankfully I got a goregous copy (I dont like my anaog movies digitally compromised)
