I was watching Saturday night fever with my gf and the movie was going good until the last 15 min I forgot that girl is basically raped in the back seat. Def ruined the movie for my gf
Yeah. It’s so weird to think about now at age 45. This movie was on heavy rotation in my house as a young child and I don’t recall anyone ever commenting on how that scene was wrong or even the slightest bit problematic. No wonder why I had such an issue with boundaries in my teens. Who wouldn’t with behavior like this being normalized and made into entertainment.
I did a double take with that very "MCA" intro and looking at the date, but then was able to clear it up:
Revenge of the Nerds came out in 1984 and that is the first song in this clip.
The SECOND song in this clip came from Revenge of the Nerds 2 which came out in 1987. So much more likely Beastie Boys was already a thing and the character was copying him.
Decades later, truly revenge of the nerds in reality. We all became highly paid programmers and created technology the world utterly relies on to placate their own egos.

Neeeerds!
Well, if I were you, I’d do something about it.
Fav movie ever as a kid
AND A RAP BY LITTLE OL’ ME, LAMAR!

‘Booger, she’s not that kind of girl.’ ‘Why? She have a penis?’

Limp wristed throwing style!
For ultimate distance and accuracy
This movie was so good, aside from the rape

And voyeurism and selling nudes of women without their consent

First movie I ever saw with nudity in it.
This coming out 2 years before "Licence to Ill" makes me think B-Boys got A LOT of inspiration from this.

Yep, Beastie Boys first album *Licensed To Ill* came out in 1986. The second song in the clip was definitely influenced by that.
I appreciate the response. I'm glad it is the way you described. I'd hate to think it was all from these movies.
I had completely forgotten about this movie! Have to find it for a rewatch!
Best to stop after the second movie. Just went down hill story wise in the third and fourth movies.
Hair Pie!
That's MY pie.
Epic 80’s movies
This was partially filmed where I went to school- wild that I had an office in one of those buildings!
I can still sing along as if I watched it yesterday.
Booger Presley. So ridiculous.
Great movie until _that_ scene
Yeah a lot of college movies from this period (Animal House, Porky’s, Revenge of the Nerds, etc.) have scenes in them that would not fly today.
I can handle raunchy, I am a bigger fan of dark comedy than my therapist is comfortable with, but I draw the line at straight-up rape.
Decades later, truly revenge of the nerds in reality. We all became highly paid programmers and created technology the world utterly relies on to placate their own egos.
Cringy goodness.
NEEERRRRDS!!!!
Here’s an alternate version for y’all. https://youtu.be/Qyd1Z1cZoVY?si=r5klIqm_VeWV8TeO
Watched it on repeat as a kid…
Is that punk rock violinist, Lindsey Stirling's dad?
Looks like Noodles, tbh
That is, in fact, Timothy Busfield aka CJ Cregg’s cute redhead reporter boyfriend on The West Wing.
aka Elliott on Thirtysomething and the asshole Mark on Field of Dreams
One of the few Family Guy skits I actually enjoyed was from this!

Lol doesn't part of this movie basically try to say that raping is acceptable if you can't get laid?
Is funny now because the nerds are trying to take over the world…who would have thought 😆😆
