Ever since it became cool to be a geek, poseurs have been attempting to get in on the action. They'll throw on phony glasses, claim they know the door code to Leia's cell in "Star Wars," and try to reap the newfound benefits of geekdom.

At San Diego Comic-Con, MTV News' Josh Horowitz set out to unmask the poseurs and praise to true geeks with a series of questions that only the real fans would be able to answer.
