    This is generating too much interest, thus, I have lost interest.

    This is opening the New York Film Festival for those of you that live out there.

    New teaser out as well. Basically the same as the first, but in a facebook chat. I prefer the first one.

    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.’

    Very good trailer.

    Not sure how that's truly a green-band one considering JT's middle fingers at 2:03, but still, that's exactly the type of thing that would convince anyone to see a "Facebook movie".
    Last 11 things I really enjoyed:

    Speed Racer (Wachowski/Wachowski, 2008)
    Safe (Haynes, 1995)
    South Park: Bigger, Longer & Uncut (Parker, 1999)
    Beastie Boys Story (Jonze, 2020)
    Bad Trip (Sakurai, 2020)
    What's Up Doc? (Bogdanovich, 1972)
    Diva (Beineix, 1981)
    Delicatessen (Caro/Jeunet, 1991)
    The Hunger (Scott, 1983)
    Pineapple Express (Green, 2008)
    Chungking Express (Wong, 1994)

    The reason that any movie can be good?

    The whole "I dont like/use Facebook, therefore I don't like this movie" is really weaksauce.

    The trailer makes it more than just "the invention of Facebook". I got a big early 90's Oliver Stone vibe out of this trailer. It looks fantastic.
    Sure why not?

    Judging by that trailer alone, it looks like it's the least about Facebook itself.

    Perhaps trans thinks part of the movie is closeups of random facebook pages with people typing in statuses and changing relationship updates. I, too, would not be excited about that.

    You have to be a moron if you think that's what the movie is.

    I'm into this because I find the whole idea of online social networking to be a fascinating one. Forums, Facebook, online dating services, and such are all a part of our modern culture. Whether or not one really likes or uses them is not the point. The MIT Media Lab has done some really interesting work in evaluating and studying how these kinds of things, and things like e-mail suffixes (aol.com, gmail.com, etc) have impacted our culture, going as far to say that these things are important identifiers in new kinds of stereotypes (one being how e-mail users with gmail.com suffixes are, generally, thought of as being more intelligent than e-mail users with aol.com suffixes). I'm hoping the film touches on this in some way.

    Heh. I think it's about a bunch of rich kids creating something that took off and then suffering the consequences of succ.....zzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz

    I'll watch it, because I love Fincher and it will be awesomely cut and paced, but.....well, I'm hoping to be proven wrong.

    Fincher doesn't seem the type to go that boring of a route. Kind of why I'm anticipating it so much.
