That's probably because we all wanted to be pop-stars in the 80s. I did anyway...
Today you only have to look at Youtube to see 12 year old kids doing professional level programming presentations to know that programmers are the new pop-stars. They spend ages in their bedrooms practicing their programming and showing the world through screencasts.
The vast majority of these have american accents and whilst it's difficult to know where anyone is from a film, I'm guessing the UK lags behind somewhat but this decision is a very timely one.
