I watched The Social Network a few days ago. Very captivating. Not very complimentary for Zuckerberg even though the actor they chose looked more sympathetic than him. Nice to see Justin Timberlake reveals himself as quite a multi-talent. What also struck me was this sort of non-linear dialogue, for lack of a better term, like you find in Instant Messaging conversations where discussion of different topics gets intertwined/interleaved. I guess it's something that the (young) brains gets accustomed to.
What I loved the most however was how apparently they've stuck so much to the facts, and kept all the names real. This in contrast to Wall Street II that I saw the other week. Actually I think the story gives a pretty correct description of how the 2008 financial crisis started but why did they have to change all the names? Basically non-fiction disguised as fiction. Except of course there's this love story, quite unnecessary. And why they chose these two particular actors remains a mystery to me. Perhaps it's because I haven't seen Transformers but I don't get the attraction.
Lastly I wonder if Gordon Gekko would have been less of a hero if he'd been played by a typical bad-guy actor like Gene Hackman. I fear not.

PS: I loved the music in TSN. Much more electronic than I would have expected from Trent Reznor. It really makes me curious for the multichannel soundtrack.

I have heard that there is a movie about Steve Jobs. Do you know the title of it?

It is in early planning stages. Probably has no title yet, or at best, only a working title.
