POINDEXTER ISN'T IN IT

Why isn't poindexter, the violin guy from the first two movies(he also didn't talk much) in this movie?

They found actors to replace wormser and Gilbert....how come they couldn't find one to replace him? and yes he was one of the popular nerds so don't respond saying he wasn't as popular as the others. He could've made a small cameo in the courtroom at the end like takashi and wormser did which also means don't respond saying 'the couldn't write him the in the script". I just wonder why the character didn't even do a cameo at the end.

That's True...poindexters first name was Arnold. Perhaps it was him. It depends on what he looked like.

Well, Tim Busfield, who played Poindexter, probably didn't want to do the film (remember, he had already built a career) and maybe they couldn't find someone who could play that part well enough, even for a cameo. The person who plays Gilbert does look like Anthony Edwards, just fatter.

Check the trivia section about why Edwards wasn't in it.
