The Social Network (2010)

In this episode, we dive into David Fincher’s The Social Network and unpack how a spite-fueled college project turned into the platform that basically controls how the world talks.  Did Mark Zuckerberg actually steal Facebook from the Winklevoss twins?  Was Edwardo a loyal friend who got screwed, or a cautious businessman who didn’t fully commit and still walked away with more than he deserved?  Some Sean Parker hate and, maybe the spiciest question of all: Is this movie quietly showing us the true origin story of our modern chaos—did Facebook help break how society communicates, or are we just looking for someone to blame? •0:00:00 - Introductions •0:03:30 - Memories of first viewing •0:07:00  - Pertinent movie details  •0:11:30  -  Critical and fan reviews •0:19:00 - Scene by scene breakdown  •1:38:00 - Modern day ratings —————————————————————— SPONSORS-  **ASPCA-  To learn more about Pet Health Insurance, visit http://aspcapetinsurance.com/breakfast  **BIG GROVE- Check out our beers of the episode here- http://BigGrove.com  **PROGRESSIVE- Visit http://progressive.com  **NordVPN-  Grab your EXCLUSIVE NordVPN Deal by going to http://nordvpn.com/breakfast to get a Huge Discount off your NordVPN Plan + 4 additional months on top!
