We just watched "Unicorn City" and well, it was awesome. A little over-the-top at times, but for what it was (and after we identified half of the film as people we know), we thought it was a good movie.
What are some geeky / nerdy movies that you absolutely love and why do you love them?

Transformers The Movie, because my Dad took me to see it at the cinema when it came out back in the 80s and an audible wail went around the cinema including myself when Optimus Prime died - man I hate Hot Rod :grumble:0

Ghost World
Scott Pilgrim vs The World
The Science of Sleep
Amelie
older (ie from childhood):
The Last Unicorn
Neverending Story
Weird Science
Real Genius
I'm in the minority that liked the last airbender - movie as well as cartoon series. I guess I didn't have too much loyalty to the cartoon as I wasn't overly concerned with the way the movie turned out.0 -

I think "Scott Pilgrim" was the only one of these I've seen. I think the others are getting added to the list!

Ahhh Never Ending Story I can't believe I forgot that one!!! So good!0 -
Inception !!.. That movie brings so many interesting questions to the table..0

Dune. The 4 hour extended version. Patrick Stewart and Sting rockin it old school.0
-
So I am going to ignore the normal Star Wars, LotR. Those movies are awesome but have mass appeal.
So...
Goonies
Willow
Galaxy Quest0 -
My husband can't watch Goonies with me because I recite the entire movie when it's on. :laugh:
There was a period of time around 1986 where we had it on VHS and I would watch it every day when I got home from school.
Oh! In the same vein (geeky movies I've watched to the point of memorization): Beetlejuice.
Gotta get Willow for my kids - they would love it.0 -
Not a movie, but went for a throw back and started watching Freaks & Geeks last night. Over 10 years later and it's still funny!0
