Booger's getting married! However, the in-laws are none too happy about their acquisition. At this point, there is no revenge left. The nerds have won.
What's startling about watching these so-called "raunchy" movies all these years later is how tame they actually turned out to be compared to modern times. Somehow, this series does a complete 180 and comes out sweet and wholesome on the other side; from a movie about underdogs to the nerds eventually coming out on top. There's nowhere else for it to go but down.
Carradine and Armstrong are the gatekeepers of this franchise, and honestly any points this film gets is credited towards their incredible chemistry and commitment to the bit. When these films are over, you tend to miss them.

Note: When this first aired on TV in 1994, the gimmick was that it was in 3-D. You could use one of those old red-and-blue glasses in order to view it in "Nerd-O-Vision." Watching it 30 years later no longer has that same novelty.
