60 of 234 · most liked firstThere have been times that I wondered whether (the most excellent) THE SOCIAL NETWORK was a little too harsh towards Zuckerberg, who comes out of the film looking like a total asshole. Nope, not too harsh at all.

Here's some of my artwork for the album, created by manually corrupting images from the film by editing their raw hex data in a text editor, damaging them from the inside. 1/
positive · AI labelView post →The trailer for The Social Network was always great but it (and the movie itself) aged like fine wine by really leaning into how much of an unpleasant, unethical and desperate freak Mark Zuckerberg is and the eerie way it frames the whole Facebook experience
positive · AI labelView post →Anyone surprised by seeing what a swarmy little back bitting douche Zuck truly is never watched the movie The Social Network.
positive · AI labelView post →In case people forgot the lengths Sandberg will go to to run cover for Zuck, she coordinated him going on Oprah on the day the Social Network movie came out, to donate "$100 million dollars!" (this was bullshit) to schools in Newark, dragging in Chris Christie and Cory Booker for the photo op.
neutral · AI labelView post →I rewatched The Social Network last night. At the end there's a text crawl that says "currently Facebook is worth $25 billion." That movie was from 2010. I was curious so I looked up what it's worth today. $1.27 trillion. These companies need to be destroyed, man.
negative · AI labelView post →‘TEXAS CHAINSAW MASSACRE’, ‘BEVERLY HILLS COP’, ‘DIRTY DANCING’, ‘MY OWN PRIVATE IDAHO’, SPY KIDS’, ‘THE SOCIAL NETWORK’ and more have been added to the National Film Registry. The films selected each year are noted for their cultural, historic or aesthetic importance.
neutral · AI labelView post →First look at Jeremy Strong as Mark Zuckerberg in ‘THE SOCIAL NETWORK’ sequel. The film follows an engineer who becomes a whistleblower on Facebook's most guarded secrets.

neutral · AI labelView post →THE SOCIAL RECKONING – Official Teaser Trailer (releases Oct 9) www.youtube.com/watch?v=gM4L... "A companion piece to the hit film The Social Network, Sorkin’s original screenplay is based on the events that gave rise to the Wall Street Journal’s shocking exposé The Facebook Files."
neutral · AI labelView post →Jesse Eisenberg, who starred as Meta chief executive Mark Zuckerberg in 2010 film The Social Network, has told BBC News he no longer wants to think of himself "as someone associated with someone like that".
neutral · AI labelView post →I really need to give the Social Network for clocking this in the early 2010s. One of the most important pieces of 21st century film
positive · AI labelView post →eddington was a much better movie about Meta than The Social Network
negative · AI labelView post →Read THE SOCIAL NETWORK 2, and it's interesting how different it is than the first film. Sorkin's in THE NEWSROOM mode this time, and the entire point of the film is the way people get radicalized by social media. Really curious to see how it comes together.
neutral · AI labelView post →Your regular reminder that The Social Network is an overrated movie in which Sorkin absolutely missed the real story, treated Zuckerberg like he was just some innocent nerd (and suggested there was no problem with that despite what he was doing). Only Fincher's direction saved it.
negative · AI labelView post →rewatched The Social Network for the first time in years tonight and it's wild to see what the big milestones were for Facebook and how different things were back then also wild that FB was worth ~$25bn when that movie came out and passed $2tn in the past year (+80x)

neutral · AI labelView post →“Unfollow” : A movie about the cast of The Social Network getting stuck in the Metaverse because Mark shut it down and Justin Timberlake says “This is going to ruin the tour.”
neutral · AI labelView post →I didn’t put my finger on it when I saw the movie the way other people have, but it’s absolutely true that THE SOCIAL NETWORK is about people and THE SOCIAL RECKONING is about Facebook.
positive · AI labelView post →The new film starring Jeremy Strong as Mark Zuckerberg is a sequel to “The Social Network,” which starred Jesse Eisenberg in 2010.
neutral · AI labelView post →I like to imagine the connecting thread of a film fest made of whatever movies I feel like watching on a plane. For instance, A Goofy Movie and The Social Network are both about the lengths adolescent men will go to impress women, often to their own danger
neutral · AI labelView post →Remember how in the movie "The Social Network" the base idea for Facebook was a way to compare two women's appearance against each other, and then rank them .... takes "masculine energy" even more toxic doesn't it?.
neutral · AI labelView post →The Social Network is such a good movie and I think various nitpicks about how much it represents what Zuckerberg is actually like (although I think it’s probably pretty close) absolutely miss that it’s basically an archetypical story about how our culture got this way.
positive · AI labelView post →I think THE SOCIAL NETWORK is more a rope a dope on the audience - it tricks you into rooting for Zuckerberg in the first half of the movie by setting him up against the detestable and inept Winklevoss twins before revealing (after many red flag hints) he's much worse than they are
positive · AI labelView post →Zaslav deserves a The Social Network-like movie 😏 More seriously, they'd better stop giving him tens of millions a year and invest that money in (sci-fi 😁) film production. 💡
neutral · AI labelView post →Aaron Sorkin's Lost Cause: 'The Social Network' asks 'what if a Facebook post was a whole movie?' vincemancini.substack.com/p/aaron-sork...
neutral · AI labelView post →the Social Network film is really funny now. Apart from the idea of Zuckerberg being fast-talking and quick-witted, every cameo character is in the Epstein emails
neutral · AI labelView post →i have bad news for you about how many years ago the seemingly contemporary film THE SOCIAL NETWORK came out
neutral · AI labelView post →Same wet-rag charisma, though. I still remember The Social Network coming out. Sorkin's often-saccharine, "faux-inspirational" film tried SO HARD to paint Zuck as a visionary creator, but couldn't. portray him as any more than a smug little asshole.
negative · AI labelView post →They should make a sequel to The Social Network movie where the plot centers around the Android apps version numbers.
neutral · AI labelView post →I do think The Social Network is a great movie but you watch it now and it's a story of the system being challenged by new power, but not being fundamentally subsumed or transformed. It's not a move about a revolution, it's more like an episode of Dallas. It's a movie about a family spat.

neutral · AI labelView post →The Social Reckoning hits cinemas this Friday, but the real world has already been working on a sequel – or rather, a threequel. Directed by Aaron Sorkin, the movie is a follow-up to The Social Network, detailing the further misadventures of Mark Zuckerberg and his social media empire, and
neutral · AI labelView post →Brilliantly woven cultural commentary here: “But what’s glaringly noticeable, watching The Social Network in 2026, is how many key Epstein figures either appear in the movie or are referenced in the movie—always presented in a positive light:”
neutral · AI labelView post →I’ve never met Mark Zuckerberg but I do find it easy to believe he is the character presented by the Social Network and that’s a very unlikeable soul. That opening scene of the movie says it all.
negative · AI labelView post →I get that re: McKay! I think the mood board I have in mind for these films would be like a combo of the Big Short, Ocean’s 11, The Cohen Brothers, the Death of Stalin, The Social Network, etc. Thanks for the pope movie rec!
neutral · AI labelView post →Is Affleck an underrated director? Maybe? Finally watched The Social Network. It's good. And pretty grim. Mostly good though We all deserve a good Denzel and Wahlberg movie. 2 Guns definitely isn't it #LastFourWatched #LetterBoxdFriday #filmsky
positive · AI labelView post →Watching The Social Network for the first time in many years and it is amazing how many friends o’ Epstein got a part or mention in this movie. Sociopathic douchebag heaven up in this bitch
negative · AI labelView post →"I have read the script. I don't particularly like the movie. I think there's a lot of nonsense in it." @karaswisher.bsky.social and @mattbelloni.bsky.social discuss the upcoming Sam Altman movie, and how it compares to "The Social Network."
neutral · AI labelView post →I keep seeing The Social Network in these "best movies of the last 25 years" lists, & let me tell you...I'm not sure we saw the same movie.
negative · AI labelView post →A student's paper just referred to "The Social Network" as "a classic old movie" and I am deceased.
neutral · AI labelView post →"For the last time, this blog is NOT about the real Mark Zuckerberg and Eduardo Saverin. It's about the fictionalized Mark and Eduardo from the movie The Social Network (2010)."
neutral · AI labelView post →Aaron Sorkin was actually too scared to add it to the film but The Social Network would have been a lot better if they followed the real motivation for him inventing Facebook; Mark Zuckerberg was Pregnant.
negative · AI labelView post →i don't know how people view The Social Network these days as a film but one thing it really gets right is Zuck is a hateful misogynist goblin
negative · AI labelView post →Great observation! At first I thought, "What about Jesse Eisenberg in THE SOCIAL NETWORK?" But that film is, in retrospect, too kind in its portrayal of Mark Zuckerberg and was produced before he really went off the deep end
neutral · AI labelView post →I rewatched The Social Network last night cause of all this shit, and Sorkin was way ahead of it, the whole movie is about him being a vindictive incel sociopath
negative · AI labelView post →“The Social Network” is an absolutely fantastic film that I cannot watch again due to annoyance. Everything about it is great: the acting, the writing, the directing, the SCORE by Trent Reznor! Everything…except the subject matter: b*tch ass Mark Zuckerberg.
neutral · AI labelView post →The year is 2050. David Fincher still hasn't made a good movie since The Social Network. Scientists remain bewildered by his continuous emission of what are now known as Zemeckis Particles
negative · AI labelView post →If Aaron Sorkin's 'The Social Network' was psychoanalysis—looking at how Mark Zuckerberg tried to use Facebook to fill a hole in his soul—Sorkin's new film, 'The Social Reckoning,' is about how Zuckerberg is consumed by the need to hold on to the empire he built. Read @sonnybunch.bsky.social:
neutral · AI labelView post →Today’s Social Reckoning trailer has me reminiscing about the Social Network trailer. In my opinion, one of the greatest trailers of all time. The trailer and the movie itself were instrumental in shaping my sensibilities as a movie lover youtu.be/rgQ_dCsbsaE?...
positive · AI labelView post →Whatever the first movie trailer was to use a slowed down, haunting cover song. Maybe “The Social Network” chorale version of “Creep” by Radiohead?
neutral · AI labelView post →i maintain the view i’ve held since 2010, that The Social Network is an impeccably made movie that gets its subject almost entirely wrong
neutral · AI labelView post →No movie from the past 25 years has aged better than “The Social Network”.
positive · AI labelView post →I like when a movie isn’t afraid to have a dark ending. That’s why I think it’s time to put David Fincher to work on “The Social Network 2”.
positive · AI labelView post →The Winklevoss twins as in the villains from the movie THE SOCIAL NETWORK, a movie in which Mark Zuckerberg is an absolute piece of shit but they're somehow even worse? THOSE Winklevoss twins?
negative · AI labelView post →THE SOCIAL NETWORK opened on this day in 2010 and became a defining film of the digital age. David Fincher turned the founding of Facebook into a drama about ambition, betrayal, and loneliness. The making-of is well worth your time on our site. alltherightmovies.com/feature/35-i...
