So I watched this last night, and before watching it I couldn't understand the complete obsession with Andrew Garfield and Jesse Eisenberg, until well, now. Now I'm just as obsessed. -.-

This movie was amazing, even though I don't go on Facebook anymore, this was done so well and of course laughing at the really dorky obscure jokes/references to stuff that made me feel "special" cause no one else I was watching it with understood why I kept laughing. /geek

Has anyone else watched this and what did you guys think about it?

Even though the real Mark Zuckerberg {ugh, please tell me I spelt his name right} is kind of douchey I did kind of understand his character and felt sorry for him a bit {minus the fact that he's a billionaire now}, because whatever level of awkward you may be, you can relate to him even though he's like 100x worse than most people are.
It was also sad seeing what he did to the people who were there for him, not people who showed up along the way just because they saw that this could make them tons of money, and how he ruined basically every relationship he had with anyone for really, no reason at all besides kind of keeping the website almost completely to himself {like the ownership}, it's not like his best and only friend did anything ever to hurt Mark, yet he completely scewed him while he was away trying to get people to give them money to keep it running.

And omg, Justin Timberlake as the founder of Napster, I remmeber hearing about this guy when Napster was closed down and afterwards hearing about him getting introuble {like in the movie, underage girls and drugs yet he really never did any}, and how ANNOYING this character was omg. And it didn't help that he was being played by Justin Timberlake, who I dislike {always comes across that he knows he's hot, which is a turn off}.

But I really don't have a lot of words to describe this movie because I liked it so much, finally a movie that was done well, written well even though it's a true story, I didn't feel in the end that there were any scenes that could've not been used.

You should watch this movie, unless you're the kind of person who only watches movies to see action, this has action if you consider how cruel Mark is to other people action lol.

I think the director of this movie knew that making Justin Timberlake as the character for Napster's creator was going to make people wince. He did such a wonderful job of playing a complete prick. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/lalatounge.gif)
