10 Things I Hate About You (1999)
Bianca and Cameron

This movie, based on "Taming of the Shrew" by William Shakespeare, proves that even back in Elizabethan England, things were like high school.
The story revolves around Bianca and her sister Kat. Bianca is pretty, popular, and catches all the boys attention. Her sister, however, can only be described as a "shrew." Bianca can't date until Kat does, so her suitors devise a plan. They find the only boy in the school who would stand a chance against Kat, Patrick, and pay him to ask her out.
A rather obvious choice for the first coupling on this list, Bianca and Cameron get together at the end. One point for the nerds.

Pretty in Pink (1986)
Duckie and A Blonde Girl (Kristy Swanson, not pictured.)

Duckie might not have gotten the girl he wanted, but he landed Buffy. That's good enough for me.
Andie and Duckie are best friends, both unpopular, but happy. Suddenly, Andie falls for a rich and sweet boy, Blane, whose friends reject Andie because she isn't of the upper class. Duckie, however, is secretly in love with Andie but plays it off as a joke.

Moulin Rouge! (2001)
Satine and Christian

You can't get any nerdier than a writer, especially a romantic one.
A musical about beauty, freedom, truth, and love: The Bohemian way.

V for Vendetta (2006)
Evey and V

You can't get hotter than Natalie Portman and believe me, V is one of the nerdiest people in movie history. He enjoys speaking in iambic pentameter, cooking, fencing, banned books, learning, art, history, art history, and anything you could ever write a book report on.
"Remember, remember, the fifth of November."

Paris, I Love You (2006)
Natalie Portman and Blind dude

A series of short films, one of which contains Natalie Portman. She plays an aspiring actress who while rehearsing, encounters a blind boy, who is mesmerized by her performance.

Titanic (1997)
Jack and Rose

Poor artist meets rich redhead... on a boat (See: I'm on a Boat)
It's about a sinking ship. Hopefully, everyone knew that.

Star Trek (2009)
Spock and Uhura

My most recent watch.
Well, first I had to find a picture without a lens flare.
It's your generic, emotionless, Vulcan nerd and, really, the only hot main female character in the movie.
Spock FTW.

Star Wars (1977)
Leia and Luke

Before all the Star Wars geeks get their panties in a bunch, I must say that I will only speak in the instances before they find out it's twincest.
Confused why they're on this list? May I remind you Luke is a moisture farmer before he becomes a Jedi. That, by itself, is the most nerdy thing I have ever heard. Leia, on the other hand, is a princess. Of a planet.
Of course, she does marry Hans Solo later...
Give me a few days to consider the validity of this nomination.
