This is just the trailer to the movie Revenge of the Nerds. The whole movie is build on the premise that a bunch of nerds get tired of being bullied and decide to fight back against the status quo and the jokes. The relationship between the jokes and the nerds is perhaps the most culturally iconic discourse depicting these two groups in today's society.

This video definitely shows opposing discourses. The two discourses, or groups, being the jocks and the nerds, collide in our everyday society. This video presents that idea in such a manner that the two discourses are very clear. The personalities, attire, status, language, mannerisms, and more are all different dependent upon which group (discourse) is being focused on. The movie trailer depicts the nerds as finally having enough, and wanting to seek revenge, thus bringing the two discourses in closer collision.
