Valor & Zeal Gaming

There was this movie I saw once.
Absolutely enjoyed it.

There was a nerdy kid trying to get with the school hottie (of course) and sought help from outside sources.
A book, that had a hideous man with a bombshell girl.
The ghost (memory that was visual?) of his grandfather past who was Italian and waited beneath the window of the woman he loved until she loved him.
A friend who had a decidedly overzealous habit of 'chokin' the chicken'

The boy slept first on the lawn beneath her window...
Helped her sneak out by catching her as she jumped from her balcony.
Then on the sidewalk (can't remember why)

Her father brought him breakfast on a silver tray after showing him a good 'tip' from the book.
The Ghostly Grandfather said DO NOT FORGET TO REMOVE YOUR SOCKS!
The friend got zapped in the bathtub in a failed 'experiment'
There was a 'Cougar' that was attracted and made 'moves' against our nerdy hero.

For the life of me I cannot recall this film but I have a sudden desire to watch it again.
Go forth...help me find this nugget of filming fortune.

Are you sure this movie actually exists?

Yes, because my room mate has seen it as well.
....he doesn't remember it either.
We spent an hour discussing it two nights ago.

It has to. I've seen it before, too. Just can't remember the name.

A few minor details are off, though, if I recall correctly.

Yeah, but I don't remember the italian ghost thing. You sure it was a ghost?

I think it was just him (the "nerd") imagining it. I remember he always pictured his ancestor in a black and white (or was it sepia?) world, typical old-fashioned stuff going on in the background.

Aye.
The grandfather was always 'young looking in sepia'

Still no luck?

Vesuvan got it amidst the reminiscing.

I don't think that's it.
I don't recall the son of Porkins and a slackjaw look.

We could try the expert process, it is usually extremely effective at solving problems like this.
