Actually, if you're referring to a singular item, namely, a particular movie, then the fact that this movie happens to have a plural noun in the title doesn't mean you suddenly have more than one movie.

So it would still be "is."

Clodfobble is the cool person (ignoring her star wars ignorance) who pointed the cellar to these comics in some other thread.

I think you might be on to something here. It would certainly explain Bri's, ummm, fondness for college professors.

See? This sort of nerd-fuggery is why you're continually signaled out, SteveDallas. You just can't help yourself.

Grammar corrections are NEVER a laughing matter in Brianna's threads.

Anyways I thought that might be what you were going for so I thought I'd one-up your grammar nerdiness by adding extra cluelessness and pedanticism

Not a nerd, not a nerd-lover, not a nerd-groupie? ... right until the next time your computer needs fixing or upgrading, then you'll come crawling back!

So what constitutes a nerd, and then what constitutes the opposite?

Can't you be a bit of both depending on the circumstances?

My son Aden has the reputation of being a 'cool nerd' at school because he's good looking, is the most popular boy (apparently) but also gets straight A's. He thinks it's pretty cool to be known as a cool nerd. Looks and brains and sensitive. That boy is blessed. (I hope they get that male contraceptive pill sorted out soon)
