Ah, the Nerd Fantasy. In case you're not familiar with this genre, it involves a.) a nerd, b.) a fantasy that can be fulfilled only in the movies, almost always involving c.) the nerd scoring some babe way out of his league. The latest offering in this well-populated oeuvre is due out next week (aptly titled She's Out of My League).
Wanting to quantify this phenomenon, ReelzChannel has partnered with noted mathematician Frederick "Huntz" Weinkauf to create the Nerd Fantasy Formula, a complex algorithm taking into account the Nerd's Looks, the Babe's Looks, and the Believability Index. We fed the data into our computers and here's what came out: The Weird Science of Nerd Fantasy Movies.
