I think there is some, man I don't know the right words. Nerd hostility? I find the horror movie culture to have a bit of machoness in it. We like movies with blood! And boobs! And violence! Raaarrrgh! Get your D&D out of here, nerds! We definitely did not run into that (with the exception of one girl who asked Eppy "Do I *look* like I play roleplaying games?") but I think the general sentiment you run into with most nonroleplayer folks is totally present here in a way that it might not be in communities that are more likely to self-identify as "nerdy" (anime fans, video gamers, etc.)
