Stereotypes in Weird science
There are many stereotypes in weird science especially the characters in the film such as geeky teens, popular teens, bullies and perfect girl.
The nerdy characters are represented as geeky by the way they look and act which is they are very skinny and wimpy and they havent gone through puberty fully yet as their voices are still quite high pitch still compered to other guys their age also the fact they are very smart acedemacly makes them stereotypically nerds as they spend weekends at home watching cartoons/films, playing video games and reading comic books. Gary has an older brother who is horrible to him and taunts him which is a common stereotype to have a mean older brother who bullies the younger brother as they are stronger taller and older.
The bullies at school are the popular guys so they tease the weaker teenagers at college and date the ‘prettiest girls’ in school. The stereotypes for popular boys are muscular, handsome and tall and for girls beautiful and hot body the popular girls and boys hang out together and have parties which is common for them.
The fact they create the perfect girl out of magazines with photoshoped women and a barbie doll shows the stereotypes to being the perfect woman as you have to be slim, tall, hot body, no spots or inperfections on the face so you have to look like one of those models in the magazines. The fact that the boys were even able to create lisa shows their intellegence as they were able to hack into the computer and overrun it.
