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.

Ok Sony, now post the last 111 minutes.
Yes ! very good idea... for us :)
On Netflix
😆😆😆 like this comment...
Lol
Netflix: we will post the next 10 mins in 2030. Take it or leave
The title of this film should've just been "Social Network." It's cleaner.
but not before he made his greatest contribution to the comment section. Drop the "The." Just "Social Network."
Omg, you genius
O
The most accurate title should have been “The first future Social Media who’s going to screw our lives”.
😅😂😂😂
This is without a doubt one of the best opening scenes to a movie ever made. Perfectly sets up Marks character as arrogant, self centered, and eager to please. And that line Erica leaves it on is incredible.
Lies again? Harvard Barcelona Orlando
I don't see it as just him being arrogant. He's also someone who can't communicate with people very well.
For comparison, may I present the best intro to a movie ever made.... kzhead.info/sun/mqx7mK-afWSugHk/bejne.html
@@hairyballs123 Then you haven't seen the movie
@@montyi8 I said "just". He is obviously arrogant, that's obvious. But he also clearly has issues with communicating with people. Half of the time in this sequence he says something, and then stops abruptly, meaning he clearly didn't mean to make it sound the way it did. He's pretty socially awkward and doesn't open up to people very easily
Erica: "I think we should be friends." Mark: "I don't want friends." There it is. That's the movie. End credits.
facts
Still waiting on that friend request, Mark?
Cleaver but not clever. Try again
I swear, Erica asking him which club was easiest to get into i think hit him harder than virtually any other insult that was hurled his way the entire film. It may be the only time you see him genuinely hurt for the whole runtime. Gives you an idea what an egocentric individual he is
@Maximus Francisco You were right - no one cares.
Erica isn't even real though, movie doesn't portray Mark accurately either.
@@helio2942 Ok, but let's pretend that the movie was just an adaptation of the book, which it is.
First 10 mins he gets hurt.The rest 1 hours 48 mins others gets hurt.
@@helio2942 He's not that cruel.But in the movie it was shown like way different.
literally anytime I need inspiration, I come back to this movie. It's incredible, haunting, and timeless.
The scholarly atmosphere at Harvard, the genius, the bar.. everything looks awesome!
its our generation's Citizen Kane dude! 💥💥💥

It's not that good
@@k.t.5405 DARPA LifeLog is shut down on February 4th 2004 and the same day Zuckerberg creates Facebook. What a beautiful coincidence.
fun fact: The script was written in 178 pages. The studio told Aaron Sorkin to cut it off at least 30 pages, but director david fincher decided to keep all the pages. He told Sorkin to read all of them within two hours, and Sorkin succeeded. That's why the dialogues in the opening scene starts when the studio's logo is shown.
Also why everybody talks so fast in the movie.
The scene is immediately followed up by two minutes of Mark running across campus
@@columbus8myhw It's okay they made it up by talking at 2x speed the entire movie haha
@@irishkcguy it's hard to catch their pace if you're non English speaker
I can only imagine how otherworldly competitive these Ivy-League types are that every waking moment of their lives are spent thinking of ways to be seen by the world as masters of the universe. Erica saw how obsessed Mark was to be a big shot, and she wanted no part of that noise. Good for her.
But mark ended up being a big shot, so can you really blame him?
@@praveeshachapman677 If that is what he wants in life, then no, I don't blame him. But this movie depicted him as the computer geek who wanted universal respect and elite status to shed some "loser" image in the eyes of his peers. It must be exhausting having to grapple with that.
@@praveeshachapman677 haha lizard kruckerberg
@@praveeshachapman677 I thinks she means he was obsessed to the point that he was forsaking the more important things in life.
@@pistachio6327 “important things in life”. It’s not my experience, but some girl who grew up with terrible parents and no money may value a MZ future more than closeness to people
The word "facebook" having a dotted underline is such a small detail but it's so significant
Never have I been made to feel less intelligent by a single conversation than I have in this scene. It is absolutely brilliant. Sorkins writing and the delivery by Eisenberg and Mara are perfect. Just a hurricane of intellect.
Agree 100%
"Hurricane of intellect", well that's a first! You're probably a hurricane of Intellect too.
It's weird though because it's just his personal idea of how Zuckerberg would talk? All the personal stuff is made up for this movie.
Aaron's brilliant writing mind couldn't have wrote a better comment, well said my man.
Just sounded like showoffs.
I love how loud the background noise is. Creates such a realistic setting and makes you have to really focus on the characters and what they are saying.
They're speaking so fast that I missed most of what they said.
Quite effective, until you try to play it in front of your class to dissect it and they can't hear anything, ahh!
@@danithoits the point. zuck is trying to appear smart by saying facts quickly, but he isn't wise to know he's being an asshole.
Same with the club scene…music is so loud that it almost feels like you’re overhearing their conversation.
This movie is like a Swiss watch. Every single moment is written, staged and shot with such precision, and the score, editing, and cinematography give everything this sleek, efficient, stylish texture that you just want to live inside. Really hope Fincher and Sorkin collaborate again.
Small thing I loved here in this clip, the voiceover melds perfectly with the audio from the foreground scene. God I love this movie
Sure, it's a great movie. My only problem is that we all know Zuckerberg, and this guy does not strike me as Zuckerberg. At all. I don't really mean the acting. I just mean this movie is about another person.
also, the conversation in this movie is as realistic as an MCU fight scene
@@hansolo631yeah that’s entirely David Fincher’s style, not meant to be realistic but it follows a certain plow and pace so even with a lot of exposition it never gets boring and seems dynamic. You can watch his other movies to see. Tho in here it’s emphasized more as to show just how Zuckerberg thinks.
I can't describe how the first 20 minutes of this movie make me feel. The music, lighting, tone, dialogue, and pacing are all working in step to create this feeling. The setting tops it off. Makes me long for my college days-even though they were nothing like this. Brilliant.
I literally chose my school (dont worry it was cheap) because the campus made me feel claustrophobic like this movies opening campus walking scene does
Agreed !!!
I agree with you wholeheartedly, it’s just incredible, aesthetically and thematically…and this movie is scored PERFECTLY
whats the name of music
@@mchannel1365bicycle tiempo
This conversation is like watching a really fast ping pong match
its a stupid conversation, the girl is so accommodating, this day and age, girl will walk away in 5 secs if she is so disrespected or any tech topic comes up, this dating scene is 20 yr old mind you both of them are now in their 40s 😉
This scene is genius and the rapid banter and the subtle way that Erica's intellect rivals his is something I keep coming back to. Success is genius+opportunity+timing+a little luck. The music is the cherry on top.
You're missing the point. success is literally shown to you in the movie and it keep coming back in every real success story of one man. success is having the nerve to be the biggest evil asshole to your best friends and rightful owners for a share of your success. you cut them off, you stab them in the back. most people won't do that, the extra step. And that is Erica's greatness at least in her lines here. he will win big, but that's because he got the nerve to be that back stabbing stomping on hearts and heads of others to climb to success. the other factors you wrote are there too. but if you missed this part I entailed you missed the point in the movie about success entirely.
and since every first scene in a movie is like a tl,dr for the entire movie....you missed that scene's point too I guess..
@@editingbasket9728 i think there wasn’t any point to get, and you just wanted to feel like you were right about something. OP is right about success being all the things they named, you don’t have to stab people in the back in order to be successful.
@@editingbasket9728 Yep, genius doesn't have much to do with success. There are countless "geniuses' who aren't successful and there are countless idiots who are.
@@pradabears Except they are right about it. If you look into the reality of many successful people, not the story they sell you in a self help book, you'll see that a lot of backstabbing goes on. You also need more than a little luck. There is a lot of luck in being born into wealth and a family with connections.
3:29 Just noticed that both Mark and his girlfriend both said the phrase "You would do that for me?" sarcastically at different points in the movie as a way of pointing out that they see through the other person's BS. Brilliant.
6:38 Ever since I've seen this film, I just love the clever syncronization of foley with the music. The percussive cycling of the bicycle chain blending with the brooding, underscore. Just brilliant!
YES SOUND EDITING. I'M STUDYING THIS HEHE. FOLEY IS AN UNDERRATED ART !!!!!
And the integration of the violin
@@Gengu That too, plus Jesse’s footsteps throughout the scene, rhythmically in sync.
This is why we love / hate the internet: "...the clever synchronization of foley............"? Who TF is foley? Strange FU thing to comment......then upon googling, "... synchronization of foley...", it's rabbit hole time. Excellent!!!!!
nice catch
one of the best opening conversations in movie history. I'd even argue that it's better than the opening diner scene in pulp fiction
That’s debatable
Both. Both are good
You are crazy as hell.
Idk I think you might be crossing the line a little. But it's pretty good.
happens when a legendary director meets a legendary writer. They make a timeless movie.
the soundtrack ughhhh masterpiece, trent and atticus are now two times oscar winners!
When did they won second.
I genuinely can't decide what is the best aspect of this film, the soundtrack, the screenplay or the directing. They are all genuinely BRILLIANT
What song is this in the soundtrack. I am not able to find it
@@praneeth191 ball and biscuit
Best OST in history! Next time you have to hit a deadline, put it on and you'll be done in an hour
David Fincher deserved the Oscar for his film, as well as the film deserving Best Picture
and aaron sorkin
@@andim.8788 he won
Oscar’s are so dumb
The dialog here is genius. The best interplay of the movie. She goes toe to toe with him and wins. A genius scorn...
The whole topic of the movie is already covered within the first ten minutes. Great work. In theory Mark has such a great sense for social dynamics and processes. In his own life he is completely lost.
By the way: Rooney Mara played Lisbeth Salander in the American adapation of "The Girl with the Dragon Tatoo". Which is by the way much better than the Swedish original one. ...at least in my opinion.
The scene of him jogging home is such a god damn masterpiece. I don't know if it's just me, but I feel like Harvard could take that scene and basically make it their brochure (Not that they need any help recruiting). It makes me feel like I missed out on a major experience in life by not going there. It very much articulates that this is a crowded campus full of incredibly intelligent people, and yet the one who might make the biggest impact on the world, feels completely alone amidst them. I love how there's even visual continuity in the scene. The steeple that they first pan down from at 5:31 is also visible in the shot at 7:01, and you can tell that Zuckerberg takes a left turn after the cut at 7:27 because the same white tower is visible at the end of that shot and the beginning of the next one.
Funnily enough, I think they mostly shot the film at Johns Hopkins University in Baltimore lol but I feel you overall.
It's an amazing scene but idk about Harvard using it as their brochure, because 0 of the shots are in Harvard! Harvard hasn't allowed filming on campus since 1970 so the movies uses a conglomerate of different universities in the US
The opening bar is fairly close to campus and the overhead shot at 5:33 is Harvard Square. The rest is Hopkins :)
@@jlaelite Thankyou. I have not a clue
"It makes me feel like I missed out on a major experience of my life by not going there" Exactly my feelings watching this scene. Can you imagine being successful, dating successful people, working on solo projects potentially worth millions, hanging out at bars with literal geniuses, and just overall thriving in life at the most prestigious school ever? And here I am, a 28 yo specialist in the army with a GT score of 128 sitting in some backwoods barracks. Shit man...
The music in the beginning is brilliant. It’s spends his walk back to his dorm in a sad rhythmic tone, then it starts to get more forbidding and angry which sets him up to create face mash and anger Erica. *chefs kiss*
It's literally such an amazing movie... Fell in love with it the first time I saw it!
whats the name of music
From the beginning, the score gives me this vibe that something dark and sinister is being founded here. Like a beast growing more powerful in the dark.

"There´s a difference between being obsessed and being motivated" I needed to hear that...
The music says so much of this intro. You feel something haunting and great is about to happen. This is like the opening dialogue has triggered that. Also...the bar scene reminds me a lot of Fight Club. Not the film itself but the club scenes. The lights, the cinematography, the slick dialogue. Besides, the fact they keep saying "final club" increases this feeling.
Well, they were both directed by David Fincher, so you're definitely on to something.

@@mchannel1365 Ball and Biscuit by the White Stripes
What a masterpiece I swear!!!
Love the score to this movie. It’s trying so hard to sound emotional and human but still has that technological robotic edge. Perfect for marks character
Indeed!
Trent fucking reznor
that’s trent reznor (and atticus ross) for u
This is a really great opener. The bit with him arguing with Erica says "This is Mark." The bit with him walking through Harvard University to his dorm room says "This is the world he lives in."-- basically everything you want to get across in the first few moments of your story.
This movie was perfect in a lot of ways, the editing, acting and soundtrack were really something special.
Jesse and Rooney's acting was incredible. That and the writing just instantly got me hooked.
Mark : Because you go to BU Also Mark : ... Wanna get some food ?
what is BU ?

@@AbdEl-RahmanAAzab oh thanks
I think its funny how Aaron Sorkin writes dialogue. Like NO ONE talks like this in real life lol.
Bruh uni people do
Yeah, it’s like Shakespeare. Hyper talk. I love it though!
some people with autism do, specifically the speed of it. it's a pretty good representation actually
Ig you haven't seen enough people
Nobody watches a movie for banal dialogue.
9:35 I always thought that the subtle hint of the browser not (yet) recognizing 'facebook' as a real word is just Chef's Kiss.
Masterpiece of a movie with a perfect opening, sorkin and fincher were the perfect duo for this
You can thank Aaron Sorkin for the genius writing and dialogue in this film. One of the best around.
The sound design is perfect. I can tell it's a loud environment, it has music and loud speech, but I can still hear every word, which is great because there's a lot of them.
I love the sound design, and how it makes Jack White's voice in the song sound like their playing live.
Whaaaaaat??
What song is that in the background in the college bar scene?
@@Knight_Of_Eleum_Loyce Ball and Biscuit, from the White Stripes. One of their best songs, in my opinion.
@@JustAGamerPersonThanks! I appreciate it!
This is a great opening scene for a thought I believe is accurate. We can see Mark running back to his place while other people just casually walk and go off with their day. This opening scene is spectacular because it really shows you how calm everything is before Mark's actions take place for the rest of the night, before everyone will be the ones who are running and Mark will be the one walking.
This is the most human I have ever seen Rooney Mara act.
Watch her divorce papers signing scene in movie Her with Joaquin phoenix just as perfect as this one
@@amnisesabi4551 yeah... Perfect...
someone's never seen a ghost story, i see
someone's never seen ghost story and her. she's one of the best actresses out there. dragon tattoo is her greatest performance in my opinion.
And I feel asleep watching her eat pie in that movie. She is literally a sociopath in Girl with Dragon Tattoo.
David Fincher’s direction and Aaron sorkin’s dialogue is a match made in heaven
Idk why I watch it daily lmao
Its inspiring and connecting at the same time...
Because it's such a awesome, inspirational, moody, and oddly comforting scene. And a lot of us wish we were able to be in that kind of situation or even just be the type of person to be going to a prestigious college like that and experience some unique moments like (potentially) with a friend or someone you were dating.

@@hamfrog9893 laid in America
Story of every relationship that has gone sour
I can somewhat sympathize with Mark in the opening scene because I've been in his position before. After feeling someone has rubbed him the wrong way, he immediately takes to the internet and creates something scathing about that person, destroying whatever relationship with them he may have had left. It feels good to vent the anger at the time, and you don't regret it at first because you feel you don't need them anyway. But give it a few years and you begin to contemplate how different life would have been if you hadn't fallen out. That's when you begin to feel guilty. Several times after Mark is shown trying to make amends with Erica, meaning even if he doesn't personally believe it, he feels guilty about what he did to her.
Assholes do that, if u are one,bad for you
This is one of the most incredible scenes in the cinematic history
I can't count how many times I've watched this movie but it's well over 15, with different people, and every single time it keeps on succeeding to amaze me and surprise me on how well it was filmed and acted.
The cinematography and music in this film was stellar.
The beautiful simplicity of the score is impressive.
How anyone managed to get through a conversation with Mark without punching him in the nose is a miracle
Thanks for posting!
Hands down, one of the very best starts to a film, ever!
Dream team of Fincher, Sorkin, and Reznor coming together in perfect harmony.
One of the best intros. Shout out to this scene dialogue & The White Stripes
Everything about this scene is fantastic, but that editing…. Brilliant. The pacing, the choice of when to use the close ups and the two-shot… wonderful.
The choice to use Ball and Biscuit is lowkey the best use of a blues song in movie history.
what a movie, what an opening. amazing how these first 10 minutes tells us everything we need to know about the whole movie
I watched this movie while I got accepted to Boston University. 😥😨 I have almost same name as Jesse Eisenburg, but Harvard was my dream school. I only got to BU, but my hometown isnt even Boston. I'm grateful for my acceptance there.
Good luck pal.
Don't really let others expectations define you, belated congratulations
You don't have to study
@@wdai03 He doesn't have to study.. he goes to BU
Twelve years later, I feel like this movie has stood the test of time much better than "King's Speech" has.
Misogyny of the dear founder of the Facebook is unparalleled. The fact that a breakup can lead to a great revenge is depicted precisely. Great writing overall.
Not gonna lie bit the moment he said 'you don't need to study' and showed the whole BU bias it was over
is this really misogyny if he's just being a dick to everyone, including his male friends? Dude's just an asshole overall, no need to make this about who he's being a dick to.
@@priyachoudhary9896Yeah, Mark was too blind to see that Erica storming off to go study would have given them both the space to clear the air. Then Mark could have come back and apologised. But he pushed too hard like an iidot
I dont know why but I love the background music when Mark run from the pub to his dorm. And of course the music of the hacking scene.
Best scene I have ever seen in my entire life ! For an opening or not, this is the best !
When I saw this film for the first time, I kept replaying it to understand the dialogues... They say it super fast
So incredible!!
Great. Now I'll watch the entire movie. Again.
Aaron Sorkin is a master of his craft. This is one of my 10 favourite movies of all time!
Sorkin writes great dialogue
It does a really good job at putting us in Mark’s shoes. The characters don’t choose their words, they just settle on something they can think of in that moment; the first half of the conversation is just them arguing over what they’re saying, showing how it’s impossible to communicate because of context bullshit; the people are all smiling stupidly and ignoring Mark as he passes them by. We don’t talk about it very often, but when you’re socially awkward, especially because of autism or something like it, there’s a certain contempt you develop for everyone who isn’t socially awkward. We don’t understand them, and we don’t like the things they put us through, so we don’t like them.
9:36 First time the word facebook got typed, therefore underlined by the system..
Always takes me back to my college years...😪
This movie is perfection in music, editing and dialogues.
The guitar riff opening this movie gives me chills. I love this movie so so so much.
It's actually a song by the white stripes, it titled ball and biscuit. The opening riff been stuck in my head ever since I saw the movie
Its definitely a piano. Sorry bud
I went to Berklee in the early 2000s. I'd jog over Longfellow Bridge into Cambridge and trip around Harvard. These beginning scenes remind me of those times.
He really plays mark’s awkward movements well.
I wish Aaron Sorkin would write the screenplay of my life.
This first 3 minutes of the movie is kinda forgotten but truly is the base on the entire movie and his life building up FB. He just wanted to be accepted and appreciated. He is Mr. Grudge
It's good to know to that Eisenberg is wearing the same hoodie as Zuckerberg when he was in Harvard University.
like the exact one or the same design
@@Inkypencil22 I actually saw that hoodie on a mall, I thought of buying it but I did not buy it.
I think this and 'Gone Girl' are the best films Fincher has ever made
And 'Zodiac' as well...
Zodiac is Se7en put him on the map but Zodiac is legitimately the best mystery thriller film of all time
I watched this when I was 10 years old & never understood anything they where saying, I was astonished with the cinematography they put into this film, all I can say is that the social network still goes hard
the most driven man i have seen in my life. i remember watching this movie with a friend then running to my dorm room to write a blog.
I came here because I needed to write a "Why BU" essay...thank you so much Zack now I have a really unique perspective to address it.
I will always love this movie , a true masterpiece ❤️
One of the Best Screenplays of 21st century
How is that piano that comes in at 5:21 so simple and yet so unmistakably Trent Reznor?
This is my favorite 10 minutes of any movie.
I really really love the 🎶 on the piano 🎹
Amazing, brilliant intro 👏
This film won 3 Academy Awards for Best Adapted Screenplay, Best Original Score and Best Film Editing.
This opening scene between Mark and Erica was so well done / acted and written that it hooked me right then and there. His mind is clearly going faster than most people and he’s never learned to foment human relationships as a result. When she said dating you was “exhausting” I both winced and laughed as I’ve known people like that. Also loved how the film comes full circle and ends with him constantly refreshing his screen to see if Erica accepted his request. She was right. He did become hugely successful but she ended it because he was an a**hole. He probably never even gave any thought as to what she said to him.
So overlooked at the Oscar's. What a shame. Great movie b

This is as glamorous and enticing a view of Harvard campus and dorm accommodations as I've ever seen. Most of those kids are geeks and nerds or sons and daughters of wealthy people and alumni. You don't see these people out and about during most of the school year because most of them are under 21.
