What did you think of "The Social Network" ?
 
I thought it was good but needed more of the story .... They could have easily pushed this to a 2:30 movie

I wonder how much of it was "fiction" and which parts were truth..

Overall it was good.

CYF 01-30-2011 08:01 PM

Overall I though it was a great movie. My GF liked it too, and she's not into computers at all.

Most of it seems to be true, btw.

NaughtyRob 01-30-2011 08:03 PM

I liked it. My wife didnt understand the techno talk so she didnt like it as much.

bronco67 01-30-2011 08:18 PM

It was interesting, if anything.

Miguel T 01-30-2011 08:41 PM

I enjoyed it alot!
Great flick!

mineistaken 01-30-2011 08:46 PM

zuck character was pretty annoying

leg4 01-30-2011 08:49 PM

I liked it, but it was not as good as everyone thought.

I have no idea how this movie got so big... Just the hype I guess.

It was not that great, but it was good.

FreeHugeMovies 01-30-2011 10:50 PM

Great movie

quiet 01-30-2011 11:17 PM

pretty good.

In the Sequel Sean Parker tells the new startup owners, "I didn't win? When was the last time you paid for porn?"

i thought you guys would wonder what happened to facebook's co-founder Eduardo Saverin after you watched the movie

I thought it was a good movie.

Barefootsies 01-31-2011 04:13 AM

I thought the kid playing Zuck did a good job.

The movie was overrated, and dragged ass at different times lacking real substance.

Overall, it was an entertaining use of 2 hours. I go to the theater and watch 8 of 10 movies that come out. I can honestly say, for me, it was one of the better movies of the past year I've seen and liked.

Most I would never watch again.

CaptainHowdy 01-31-2011 06:19 AM

Pure style (visually and musically)...

Pseudonymous 01-31-2011 06:29 AM

Great movie and my first thought was the same. Feels like they shortened a movie that was 3 hrs. Or should have been

CamChameleon 01-31-2011 06:42 AM

I liked the movie really enjoyed the mix of tech and drama but not sure how much is true. Only thing i would say about the story is that when Mark says he will work on the site for the twins and takes there idea of "exclusive" he should have said straight up and not waited months as i am sure he still would have beaten them to market! Made me think less of him when really the story makes you get behind him and will him to make it a success!

Porko 01-31-2011 07:00 AM

I like it but it's overrated.

Altwebdesign 01-31-2011 07:11 AM

still haven't seen it

MrGusMuller 01-31-2011 09:10 AM

Liked.
Nice to see that we sometimes cheat our friends with out having the real perception of it.

Loved!! the scenes from the twins on Europe, in the river.

The Duck 01-31-2011 09:14 AM

Good movie that made me feel very stupid.

Paul Markham 01-31-2011 09:17 AM

It was alright. What surprises me is all the awards it's getting nominated for. No way does it deserve all those, or a bad reflection on the rest of the years film productions.

Without he true element it would never of made it.

Eva fell asleep watching it. I think a lot of it's appeal was from geeks and people who use social network sites.

Mind you the guy who played Zuck, was very good. Wanted to punch him on the nose at the end. Came across as a real loser in life who came up with a better way to use someone else's ideas.

Chosen 01-31-2011 09:34 AM

Average movie...

Pseudonymous 01-31-2011 10:24 AM

Its not being nominated because the movie itself was done amazingly. Its the fact that it hit a wide audience and was done pretty well also.

It's a movie about something that almost everybody uses daily and there was a decent story behind it. And its something that alot of people were interested in.

That's all. It deserves to win awards and be nominated. The acting was good. They had a great idea of making a movie about something that hits a very large audience. I am very glad they did. I was more interested in seeing the story behind it than any other movies lately.

If awards were simply about how complex and well done a movie was, all nominees would be completely different.

JFK 01-31-2011 10:38 AM

It was OK, I liked it, not sure how many more times I would watch it though:winkwink:

adultchatpay 01-31-2011 11:20 AM

gotta watch it asap

Vegas Ken 01-31-2011 11:27 AM

I have heard good things, but have not seen it yet.

Rand 01-31-2011 11:37 AM

I watch a lot of films and i enjoyed this one very much. Agreed, I think it could gone a little further... but the pacing, acting, and dialog were great. The soundtrack kicks ass.

with that logic The Net and The Phantom Menace were the best movies of all time.. both popular subject matter, both complex beyond words... The truth is you like it, but you have unique tastes. Movies that get nominated appeal to larger numbers.


I didn't like it because the characters were contrived and despicable, i mean ALL of them so I don't even understand the appeal myself. With that being said it did have elements of a good movie. There were scenes that were well done, as someone mentioned earlier the twins in europe with their race and them realizing they have been punked intertwined with that peer gynt classic was a fantastic scene, but there wasn't a lot of other scenes that stood out and it was a mish mash and lost track as soon as the rock star showed up (napster douchebag)

I understand why this has a bit of a cult following, but it really isn't anything beyond that.

People fall asleep because they're tired, not because they're bored.

martinsc 01-31-2011 12:50 PM

I liked it.

Scott McD 01-31-2011 12:52 PM

Not seen it, and no interest in seeing it.

I hear enough about Facebook without going to see a damn movie about it too...

epitome 01-31-2011 02:30 PM

It is purely entertainment.

Read The Facebook Effect if you want to know what Facebook is all about and how it got to where it is today. It discusses the twins claims, as well as those of others, but cannot and does not answer the famous question of who invented Facebook.

minnie <3 01-31-2011 02:33 PM

I liked it - had no idea how fb really started but the movie did a good job portraying the general picture

tbh it didn't seem like a 2 hr movie like other lengthy movies that drag on n on...maybe cause I guess there was some sort of "connection" with the movie n shit like that.. hell I sat through Middle Men at the theater with my bro for less than 90 min :1orglaugh

Juicy D. Links 01-31-2011 06:23 PM
