I genuinely think this is the greatest trailer ever made. Better than the movie even

I'm reading this book now and I understand why Sorkin made the screenplay so gay. This book is so fucking gay.

remember how in the book tsn is based off of eduardo is done visiting mark right before his shares are diluted and ponders about christie, saying ‘you never know what your crazy girlfriend is going to do next.’ and they basically drew a parallel between christie and mark and called mark eduardo’s crazy girlfriend. remember that.

"i asked grok" "i asked chatgpt" yeah well i asked my buddy eduardo saverin and he said his shares were diluted down to 0.03% and that he was mark's only friend. mark only had one friend.

If "The Social Network" sequel is not directed by Fincher due to his scheduling conflicts and being unable to step in, they should have waited for him to be available. But if he is not doing it, simply because he was not asked, THAT'S a shame, because the first film was the masterpiece mostly because of him. The script was heavily edited by Fincher, so despite being written by Sorkin, the movie was what it was because of Fincher. I saw Sorkin interview from a few years ago where he said that there were a lot of things in the script that Fincher basically edited and insisted on Sorkin changes, and it was pretty clear that Sorkin did not like it. So if Fincher's non-involvement in the second movie is because of this, then I get why Jesse Eisenberg, who would never say no to a good role or project, backed out of the sequel. If he read the script and said "No", then it feels like a red flag. How are you calling a film a sequel and then have literally not a single main cast member from the original film to tie these movies together? This does not make sense.

Mark? MARK? Hes wired in. Sorry? He’s wired in. Is he? Yes. How bout now you still wired in? Call security. You issued 24 million new shares of stock! You were told that if new investors came along- how much were your shares diluted? How much were his? You signed the papers. You set me up! You’re gonna blame me because you were the business head of the company and you made a bad business deal with your own company? This is gonna be like im not a part of facebook. It won’t be like youre not a part of facebook. Youre not a part of facebook. My name’s on the masthead! You might wanna check again. Is this because i froze the account??? You think we were gonna let you parade around in your ridiculous suits pretending you were running this company? SORRY MY PRADAS AT THE CLEANERS! Along with my hoodie and my fuck you flip flops, you pretentious douchebag! Security’s here, youll be leaving now. Im not signing those papers. We’ll get that signature. Tell me this isnt about me getting into the Phoenix. You… you did it i knew you did it! You planted the story about the chicken! I didnt plant that story about the chicken- Whats he talking about? You had me accused of animal cruelty! Seriously. What the hells the chicken? And i’ll bet what you hated the most, is that they identified me as a co founder of facebook WHICH I AM. You better lawyer up asshole, cause im not coming back for 30%… im coming back for EVERYTHING. Get him out of here. Its okay, I’m going. Hang on! Almost forgot. Here’s your $19,000. I wouldn’t cash it though i drew it on the account you froze. I like standing next to you, Sean. It makes me look so tough.

someone should make a social network (2010) style biopic movie about the rise and fall of panic! at the disco because it's literally the same story. young awkward nerdy guys in the early 2000s make something cool and then have the worst friendship breakup of all time that's reminiscent of a divorce and now decades later the thing they made is lame as fuck. one guy became evil after they split up and the other guy disappeared off of the face of the earth. every man involved was so misogynistic that the story has undertones of a doomed gay relationship (a comically large hook drags me off stage and I am shot like a lame horse)

I do genuinely always think about the opening scene of the social network being Jessie Eisenberg as Mark Zuckerberg being openly rude, disrespectful, smarmy and misogynistic to Rooney Mara's character and she responds with the now iconic line that he will very probably be very successful and will go through life thinking that people don't like him because he's a nerd but actually people don't like him because he's an asshole and that this interaction is how the movie is framed and even bookended, with Mark in the final scene trying to request her as a friend on Facebook but she as far as we know doesn't accept. And everything in the movie only serves to prove her right, that he is successful and smart but ultimately an asshole who built his success on comparing women to farm animals out of spite for her. This is literally the opening sequence of the film, the main interaction it's framed around and it baffles me that there are people who view The Social Network (2010) as some kind of lionisation of Facebook's creation, and not one of the most prescient cautionary tales about misogyny and technocracy of our time. To this day, the only thing Zuckerberg actually disputes about the film is that actually he married a woman he met in college. Nothing else. He disputes nothing else. No movie has aged better than The Social Network (2010) and I do actually sincerely wish that wasn't the case.
