Quote: David Fincher’s The Social Network is the stunning tale of a new breed of cultural insurgent: a punk genius who sparked a revolution and changed the face of human interaction for a generation, and perhaps forever. Shot through with emotional brutality and unexpected humor, this superbly crafted film chronicles the formation of Facebook and the battles over ownership that followed upon the website’s unfathomable success. With a complex, incisive screenplay by Aaron Sorkin and a brilliant cast including Jesse Eisenberg, Andrew Garfield and Justin Timberlake, The Social Network bears witness to the birth of an idea that rewove the fabric of society even as it unraveled the friendship of its creators.

Co-sign this comment. I don't have a Facebook page, nor do I ever plan on getting one. I'm about as anti-social as they come ... Just can't get with this whole social networking business. Not Facebook, MySpace, Twitter, none of it. It's cyber-paradise for all the attention w***es out there, but not me. Just my personal opinion...
You're way too proud about being anti-social. How can you judge people for sharing all their info--which they choose to do; Facebook doesn't choose for them, it just provides a forum for people who want to share their information--when you're on your own soap-box? And you're doing it online no less, on a public forum!
Anyway, I don't care to see this movie although I just might give a shot because of the star. I liked him in Zombieland, and he gave a really interesting interview on Conan that made me respect him quite a bit.

However, Black Swan is still my favorite movie of this year. I really want DVDActive to announce that one.
WTF!? Were you serious? Black Swan has not even been released worldwide (releases this Friday worldwide). How in the world do you expect a home video release THAT quickly? Get with it!
I didn't mean now, lol. I mean like maybe January/February-ish.

Lol. That's still too early. Should be mid March or mid April. Likely sure its going to get released after the Academy Awards season.

I acgree with some of you. Why not wait to plaster your cover art with all the awards this going to win? Seems stupid to not push the release off 6 weeks.
So on DVD Empire, they have the back cover art for the DVD and the Blu. They each come with the exact same features.
Amazing movie (one of the best of the year) great cover art (love the screenplay credit)I like how all of the quotes come from publications with their own unique font. Really hope this wins Best Adapted Screenplay and I hope Trent Reznor and Atticus Ross at least get nominated.
If there was an extended version I dunno how they'd manage it, besides a couple of scenes and some choice f-bombs the script and film are pretty much exact. Unless Fincher did have a 191 minute cut lying around, where the rowing and party sequences were Malick-like.
Boring!
im not impressed yet, this movie was ok and so was black swan. nothing special to me.so far the oscars are gonna suck this year. im am a huge fincher fan but this was just ok.
This deserves multiple Oscar nominees. Very well done in almost every field of film. The best of the year.
Loved this movie! David Fincher proves he's one of today's most interesting filmmakers. I will have to wait for the likely bareboned and terribly DVD release to hit my area. Love the R1 cover though.
Can somebody who owns the U.S. version please help me out and tell me whether the Fincher commentary is bleeped in Amerca as well (it sure is in Britain and Germany). Censoring an audio commentary track - how sad is that?




Only issue might be that the blue bar across the top gives the DVD the appearance of a blu-ray... but I like that title placement a lot, so I hope they stick with it.
