Best Movie Dweebs

Movie dweebs are distinct from both movie geeks and movie nerds. Dweebs are neither smart, like nerds, nor do they have specialized knowledge or obsessions, like computers or comic-books. They’re just dorks. Hopeless fucking dorks. They’re never the leading man; the occasionally play the best friend role. And while they occasionally lose their virginity in comedic subplots, they always begin a movie as a virgin.

Here are the five greatest dweebs of cinema.

4. Ducky, Jon Cryer — Pretty in Pink

3. Kenny, Seth Green, Can’t Hardly Wait
