An anonymous reader writes, "Fox Atomic has pulled the plug on the Revenge of the Nerds remake. The movie was into two weeks of shooting when Emory University, the place where it was shooting, decided it no longer wanted to be part of the film."

  1. I'll bet the Jocks put pressure on the filmmakers. by Anonymous Coward · · Score: 0, Offtopic

    We all know the Jocks hate the Nerds (they go around screaming NERRRRDDDSS! and foaming at the mouth, or is that just beer?)
    So they probably said that they'd dunk the filmmakers heads in the toilets or something and since filmmakers are basically Artsie-Nerd crosses (look at Steven Spielberg) they relented.

    TDz.
