One thing that every geek can do is quote their favorite geek-culture media, whether it’s movies, books, television, theater or music. The GeekDads have tried to compile a list of such quotes for your enjoyment. This list is certainly not definitive. Indeed, it’s only the beginning!

This list could have been formatted better. It's a chore to read.

I'm apparently such a geek that I realized that number 34 is incorrect.

There should be "What can you do?" before the "Dare to be stupid".

Again, I must question the validity of this list...

Some quotes are borderline obscure, and they specifically targeted probably the least memorable quotes from other movies/series in other series.

Seriously, I'm ashamed to say that I've seen most of Jimmy Neutron Boy Genious and the last quote that comes to mind is:

“Never argue with the data.” - Sheen, Jimmy Neutron

That list seriously needs revision; should we turn this into another forum project?

Some of them are from not so nerdy movies and more "everyone has seen this" kinda movies.

"If I’m not back in five minutes, just wait longer.” - Ace Ventura, Ace ventura, Pet Detective

I've watched this movie about 100 times and never remember him saying that. And even if I did, who the fuck quotes that out of the other thousand great lines he says?

There's other ones like;

"Check please"....Spaceballs

Who the hell equates this to Spaceballs when it's about as common to say in a restaurant as saying "bless you" after someone sneezes?

Sometimes I wonder how hard they even worked on this.
