Our main character, Guy, is quite a geeky character but is mainly just a complete fail in life.
-Guy's bedroom is seen to have game posters up highlighting his geekiness and he also has Xbox games lying about.
-He is clearly seen as a complete fail, connoted by when he turns the shower on and its too cold, then by the way he dresses, the way he does his hair and finally when he spills coffee on himself. However, although the way Guy conducts himself may be negative, the audience is supposed to love him and almost find his complete failure at life adorable.
-Generally, there are both negative geeky stereotypes and positive ones but the positive ones tend to be focused in films where the geek is the main character such as 'Superbad', this is similar to ours.
-I think that Guy is such a lovable character, that he will appeal to all groups. In addition to this, we haven't gone overboard in terms of making him overly geeky in order to not alienate this group of people.
