Tonight, a few observations on The Social Network:
1) Was it just me, or was there some serious Jewish vs. Aryan subtext in the Zuckerberg vs. Winklevoss twins face off? (P.S. - Winklevoss? You cannot write a better silver spoon Harvard elite name.)
versus:
and in real life...at The Social Network world premiere...:
2) The moment when Mark realizes that he has to add "Relationship Status" and "Interested In" to Facebook before it went live is perfection. Let's all take a moment to revel in the idea that deep down at the core of social relations is our desire to mate. Or as Eduardo Saverin eloquently puts it in the movie - everyone wants to get laid.
3) I've seen several status updates on Facebook in the past few days that comment on the metatastic (hmm...new favorite made up word) irony of a status update on Facebook about seeing The Social Network. Love Mark Zuckerberg or hate Mark Zuckerberg, you'll still use Facebook to let everyone know what you think.
