Rico was a moron to not nail Dizzy from the beginning

She very fine. Just the right amount of crazy

Yup.

Denise Richards was kind of a vacuous smiling consumer/breeder type;

Dizzy had so much more going for her-and was sexy to boot

Yeah, the "prefer Denise Richards to Dina Meyer" thing makes Rico look like a completely pathetic tool. "This smart, gorgeous woman really likes me, but I'm going to chase this other vacuous chick who barely seems to know I'm alive"

Yeah , your right . Dina is way hotter than Denise . There's something about Dina . Think golf ball / garden hose .:/

I think it was more of a high-school thing + Rico desired Carmen more than Diz cause he found her more hot/#1 than Diz who was actively pursuing Rico - kind of a turnoff when you already love the girlfriend you have.

The sad part is that it seemed like Carmen was just in a relationship with Rico to piss off her dad given how chaste she was until her Dad was, "away." You could tell she never loved Rico during that tram/airship departure scene when Rico asks her to tell him that she loves him, or unwilling to say it because she didn't want to be tied down.

Wasn't Dizzy a guy in the book. Could explain why he wasn't into her.

In the kingdom of the blind, you're the village idiot.
