    I actually think this could be interesting if Fincher treats the accumulation of digital information in the same way he treated the accumulation of analogue info in Zodiac.

    I had a feeling that the ad campaign for this would be glorious and the poster proved right. Bring on the trailer!

    I kinda wish that Sorkin would insist a rewrite to add this bit in. :lol:

    I was actually just reading about Matt Damon and he’s like, ‘There’s a culture of outrage.’ I’m like, ‘Well, they have a reason to be outraged.’ I think it’s a lot of dudes just being scared. They’re like, ‘What if I did something and I didn’t realize it?’ I’m like, ‘Deal with it.’

    A premise like this will either do really well, or bomb embarrassingly. I suspect the former.

    Teaser.

    Takes a cue from The Dark Knight's teaser in that you don't see anything, just hear a little of Sorkin's dialogue.

    Quite the daring teaser to go for by having a teaser about someone that most people haven't really heard of.

    Still works though.

    Can't understand "HATING" the trailer. Maybe the logo at the end made it seem like something that's way more serious then it should be.

    I can't understanding feeling strongly one way or the other because of it.

    I think people have heard of "The Facebook Movie" being made, and when they saw that this was it, it probably put out more laughs than anything.

    I don't think the teaser works. It tries to attach too much weightiness to dialogue samples that could easily be from some average made for TV movie about the subject. A teaser for a major motion picture about Facebook really needs to justify to its audience why there is a major motion picture about Facebook.

    What Winston said. It comes off like one of those youtube trailers: someone trying to be funny by turning the mundane into movie moments.

    I don't know, but I'll be interested in reading your justification.
