So I'm pretty sure I wasn't the only one annoyed by the first trailers for this movie that just involved big, white lettering and voice overs of people talking about "BILLIONS of dollars" and "we should sue him in federal court!" (a great line, btw). The only thing that kept me interested in this movie was the fact that A) David Fincher is directing and B) I don't know anything about how Facebook was created and seeing as how it's become an easy (creepy) way to spy on people and see everything they do, I figured it'd be interesting to see how it all started in the first place. Now here we are, a trailer with people. So? It's got Fincher's signature darkness and faces obscured in shadow with any yellow/brown colors accented which you can see in Zodiac, The Curious Case of Benjamin Button, and many more. So yeah, Fincher is a great director, but I just find Jesse Eisenberg annoying. His voice is just so.....I don't know....it just is. Zombieland was great and he's good at doing the nervous but sweet nerdy teenager (there's so many of those though!). Hopefully we'll be able to see a new side of him here with a bit more emotion involved besides talking really fast and stuttering. Also, has anyone else noticed how many movies this Andrew Garfield guy is in? He's the one who screams "MARK!" at the end. First of all, he's cast as the new Spiderman, he's in Never Let Me Go, an Oscar contender coming out this winter, and was in The Imaginarium of Dr. Parnassus last year. And now this. He's really heading for the big time. Anyway, I'm a bit more excited for this now seeing as there's actually people in this movie and not just voices. Or big white letters.
