3 Stereotypes

The three stereotypes:

The first was that all of the nerds were men and that the women could have cared less about the growth of computers. The second was that the nerds seem to be loaners and spent all of their time working on the codes rather than having a social life. They were anti-social and they looked very weak. Also all of the men were white. Another stereotype was that all the men had glasses and most had beards and were very scruffy looking. They spent their lives hyped up on caffeine because they didn't want to stop their work. Lots of left overs and they slept in their offices, only associated with other "nerds."
Still today many nerds keep to themselves and only hang out with people who have their same dedication and drive. Also they keep themselves shut away just like they did in the earlier years of the computer. The only few differences I see from then to now is that their are more women in the field and that the men do not have the beards like I saw in the movies. Nerds today still have the anti-social side to them.
If I had to make a movie dealing with computer enthusiasts, I don't think I would change to many things. Adding women into the field and showing the new technology that the nerds had to work with are the two biggest. Also I think that the way the offices are set up now is alittle different and the information the nerds use would probably be on the computer rather than on thousands of sheets of paper because in today's world computers have come so far and so many computer people use very little paper, it's all on computers.
