Post #5

I think it is funny that we are talking about a movie that has had so much hype and I have not even heard of it. I admit that I use Facebook to play games and chat with friends that I would normally never know anything about. I am beginning to realize I do not pay as much attention to the hype as I used to. I typically watch a movie or two a week and I have found that I do not give much attention to the previews. I am no longer impressed with the tell all previews. When it is time for a commercial I change the channel. I read all three articles and did not find that any of them sparked my interest in this film. I had to read the other two posts and watch trailers of the film just to get something to type about.

There is nothing about this film that would make me want to spend $10 to see it in the theater. This looks like a Red Box or a Netflix type movie. Now that I have watched the trailers it has sparked my interest a little but not much. I believe if you did a movie like this on any company or person who has the type of success that Facebook has had that you will find they all have their little secrets of how they got to the top and how people feel they were used or stepped on to get them there. The hard work and dedication it takes to make a company successful over years and years is not something everyone has. It takes a certain type of person to dedicate themselves to something and make it successful. Facebook has changed immensely since it first came out. It is because of those changes and the ability to continue to change that will keep them as the number one social site. Facebook was not the first of its kind and I am sure it will not be the last.

  1. Good point about the "little secrets," but you really couldn't find anything in the articles? A guy (good or bad, who knows) giving to charity at the same time a movie about him comes out? Oh well, good job on what's here. I'd save it for Netflix myself.
