Revenge of the Nerds/Trivia

Everything About Fiction You Never Wanted to Know.


  • Dawson Casting: Robert Carradine (Skolnick) and Curtis Armstrong (Booger) were thirty and thirty-one when the movie came out, playing eighteen year olds.
    • Not to mention that the actor playing the Dean of the college is only two months older than Armstrong.
  • Hey, It's That Guy!: Ted McGinley as Stan Gable, leader of the Alpha Betas.
  • Hey, It's That Voice!: Takashi would go on to voice the movie version of Leonardo.
  • The Other Darrin: A pilot for a TV series was produced in 1991 and the returning characters were all recast. Rob Stone played Lewis, Lightfield Lewis was Gilbert, Grant Gelt was Harold and Jeff Benson was Ogre.
    • Anthony Edwards did not return for the third movie, so he was played by Mike Greenwood in a one scene.
  • Playing Against Type: John Goodman has almost always been associated with kind and affable Big Guys, here he plays the petty, cruel, and almost criminally negligent Coach Harris.
