...bought The Social Network and finally watched it. Yes, loved it. Particularly the scene where Zuckerberg builds Facemash -- easily my favorite of the movie, and I was following every step of the way. Apache indexes, Emacs, wget...very yes.

Did not like the opening scene. I know the speech tempo was dialed up way past 11 for a reason, but wow, for a Sorkin script, that's too much. (I like rapid-fire dialogue, and I like Sorkin speech, but not necessarily together.) Thankfully, it got better.

Saddened -- but no surprise -- that Oscar will not nod Garfield's or Timberlake's direction, but Eisenberg might just pull this one off. Probably not Fincher and probably not the movie -- not in a year with The King's Speech on tap to pull down the big prizes, I think. (If only TKS were playing nearby....)

Stunned Daft Punk didn't pick up a nod for Best Original Score. But this just means the days between now and "Oscar-winner Trent Reznor" are so slightly numbered.
