PG-13
1. NERDS!: Although the nerds do not play a central role in this one, they are well represented. Noted nerdy character actors Stuart Charno and Arye Gross play a reptile nut and a star trek dork respectively. They are regularly terrorized by a certain blonde antagonist, so there is a lot to like here.
9/10
2. JOCKS!: ZABKA!!! and Leigh J. McCloskey as preppy frat-guy Kevin. A dynamic duo to be reckoned with.10/10
3. BABES!: Between Terry, Tony, Sherilyn and (Parker Lewis' pal) Buddy's poster collection there are plenty. The payoff at the end is a monumental cinematic triumph.
8/10
7. MUSIC!: Another 80's movie with known radio-played tunes. Live band at the prom4. NERD BABE RELATIONS!: Well it appears that the nerds are accompanying dudes and 12 year olds to prom, so there is that. Rick doesn't exactly qualify as a nerd, and his reaction to the "unleashing" is unconceivable. Buddy makes good though.
7/10
5. TIMELESSNESS!: This one has a lot of the key commandments covered. There is especially a lot going on in the background, so rewatch-ability is high.
8/10
6. STEREOTYPES!: Uh, this one is about stereotypes.
10/10

10. MAJOR PARTY!: Prom at the beach, fights, gender-bending dates and monumental moments in cinematic history.9. PERVERTS!: Buddy!!! Who didn't know this guy in Jr. High?
