3. Is there anything stereotypical about the representation of adults?

Yes, in the movie the stereotype that adults are very not tech savvy was shown. Most of them laughed the situation off and thought it was ridiculous and would go nowhere at all, when in reality it was to become one of the largest and most successful corporations of all time. I believe that although young people typically do know more about internet businesses that older folks, that the movie over stereotyped them.

6. Does the film take a stance for or against the existence of Facebook? Does it comment in any way on the impact it has had on the world today?

In my opinion, the film takes a stand for Facebook. The film shows that when nobody else really truly believed in the internet social network, the internet could be used to create these businesses and be successful and not just a flop. The movie definitely does comment on compacting the world today, because it shows that such an oddball and weird idea can not only become something amazingly successful, but one of the worlds largest companies and a world changing service. It showed that Facebook changed the world by doing something nobody knew was possible, creating a way of communication all throughout the world.
