Miscellaneous Movie Musings the Sequel

It's not that there's nothing of reality. They got some stuff right besides the T-Shirts. And I don't mind dramatic license when it's used to simplify the drama or the number of characters so it's suitable for a movie (i.e., rolling 4 characters into 1, compressing the time span of events).

I will see The Social Network, and I bet it's a damn fine movie. I also bet they could have stuck to Zuckerberg's actual story and had the film be none the worse for it.

Otherwise, and perhaps Gemini Cricket would have preferred this, they could have gone the "Trans Global Airlines" route and not used "Facebook" for the film. Clear product placement! Harumph!
