The Social Network held up a lot better over time than Facebook itself did.
LOL
Well one of them was about people...
WhatsApp? Instagram?
Hell yeah. It was great back in 2007-2008. Boring as he'll now
I swear this channel has some of the most inventive b-roll on the platform. I freaking love what you do with it.
What Andrew Saladino does in this video, about this subject, is genius. Well done, sir.
Nice seeing you here nitrorad. :)
“Tinder is the new FaceSmash”
Tinder legit used to use the same Elo rating algorithm that Garfield’s character writes on the window for FaceSmash
This was FANTASTIC, Andrew.
Currently rewatching on Netflix. It has aged for the better which is saying a lot.
I am so tempted to watch it again just to see.
I may have been a bit too young when it first came out.
Going to come back at it with more life experience and see what I can bring to the table.
52K / TapDatApolis facts saw it in seventh grade and just saw the full movie for the first time since then a couple months ago(I’m 20 now) and I realized how much dialogue and just story elements that went over my head, like I completely missed the little subplot about Mark being jealous and possibly sabotaging Eduardo. One of my all time favorite movies and Aaron Sorkin is quite possibly my favorite writer
@@LivingLikeLarry12 true. I was really struck how (like the company) Mark, the character, is trying to get you to believe something that isn't true. I originally saw the film and admired his ambition and just wrote off his snarkiness as just being smart. But with new eyes see, as Rooney Mara revealed in the 1st ten minutes, he's just an asshole. Eisenberg did a good job, in my opinion, of hiding menace as ambition.
I love how years ago when the film came out, some critics felt it portrayed Zuckerberg too harshly. Give it a few years. 🤣🤣🤣
The real tragedy in this film is that Sorkin is basically writing about himself, a talented, successful as*hole. It’s often been said that a preacher's sermon is ultimately meant for himself, and that is certainly true here.
muern I think what works about this film compared to other Sorkin projects he’s made is that since he’s constrained by the real-world material he, essentially, is forced to write only about assholes. There’s no liberal character to come in and give an amazing speech that can even turn the republicans around like he can on The West Wing, or a journalist heroically telling everyone on a plane that Osama Bin Laden was just killed like on The Newsroom. Instead, he has to write about a guy who lies and cheats and pushes away others to get to the top.
Not only that, Sorkin himself has now been a critic of Zuckerberg over Facebook's mishandling of ethics.
Ha he so is!
I'm bothered that the presentation wasn't on dark mode.
unfortunately Facebook doesn't have a dark mode
@@jackwiegmann Facebook lite does
loved how you utilized this format! really made me *feel* like someone who is addicted to their phone by fault of the advertiser oriented algorithms that have driven its own creators to bans phones from their children and have trouble not refreshing and checking their notifications too (can u tell i watched social dilemma)
I've lost count as to how many times I've watched this film. It absolutely never gets old
Even if Facebook goes the way of other passé tech companies, it won’t make The Social Network dated, since the writing in the film makes it timeless. It has one of my favourite final lines in any film (If you’ve seen it then you know what I’m talking about), it draws the story to a full circle. It’s one of the many reasons why it’s not only my favourite film of the 2010s but one of my favourite films ever.
When the movie first came out, I thought it was just going to be some movie trying to cash in on the popularity of Facebook and become dated much later but dang the movie has aged so well.
The Citizen Kane similarities are something I never picked up on, and it's interesting since Fincher's next film is about the making of Citizen Kane.
Out of curiosity, have you ever watched the 90s anime "Serial Experiments Lain"? It's very interesting to revisit because it was arguably the first major piece of filmed media that took the Internet *seriously.* When Hollywood was making pop movies like Hackers, SXL was asking things like "What is the Internet doing to our perceptions? How is it changing the youngest generation?" The show is surrealist, but I find it holds up pretty well, and a lot of its insights still resonate. Even if some may find the resolution a bit disappointing or overly magical.
.
(Also "Sneakers," but it was much more narrowly focused on data control, rather than the larger societal impact of networking.)
This is the 3rd times this week I've seen Serial Experiment Lain in comments. I remember having an old anime magazine it was featured in and never took the plunge to watch it. Gonna go watch it now, thanks fellow commentor!
@@SourSourSour don't worry if you didn't understand a thing. even the people who watched it get confused about it.
Lain is sometimes downright scary when you take into account the fact that it was released around 98 if im not mistaken.
Man , really can't believe it's been a decade since this film came out.
127 Hours may have been collectively forgotten, but I think it holds up great.
The details like the exact timings of when the battery percentage goes down is impressive. Great job on this video.
You have no idea how many times I've replayed its soundtrack, and you have no idea how many times im going to replay this video.
You've reminded me this film exists.
I am now required under law to rewatch it.
Speaking of David Fincher, for those of you unaware, his latest film, "Mank", a film about the making of Citizen Kane no less, is coming out next month.
What an amazing video, really loved the style, the minutes passing and the battery dropping 😂.
Greetings from Brazil
I loved the way you formatted this to feel like scrolling through a Facebook feed. My thumb kept moving to hit the Like buttons in the video, lol.
The Social Network remains to this date one of the most well constructed films I’ve ever seen.
Is it bad that, as much as I love this movie, I've only now realized it's title, _The Social Network_ , refers less to Facebook and the rise of Social Media, and more to Mark Zuckerburg's personal social circle and it's dissolution? Which is obviously what the film itself is about, but I never really made the connection to the title, or at least forgot.
Damn, probably one of the best video essays I’ve ever seen. Well done
The Saul Bass movie poster video was the first video in portrait I thought actually used it for a genuine purpose and it blew my mind. Not to mention it was the first portrait video I saw that wasn’t an ad. Plus it’s just a solid video. That’s why it’s my go to for introducing people to your channel. I love that you’ve gone back to it, and while I feel like this one adds a lot more aesthetic value than practical, I’m still happy to see it make a return.
Thanks so much for all the little detail work (and big detail work) that you put into these. It shows, and it’s why I click on anything you put out instantly. I mean, the honest opinions, solid research and, really organized scripting you do doesn’t hurt that either. You’ve paved a way for your opinions to be not only valuable and educational, but palatable and enjoyable too. I’m excited for your next one.
WHAT AN EDIT! I would've never thought of that
Wrote 70 pages about the music, what it is and what it does for my film school diploma, was so enlightening, even though I felt like scratching the surface of the movie, and the music too, everything's has so much depth, its incredible
Love the video!
I had the same feeling watching it last year. The worries and concerns of nowadays just increase the tragedy of something that has been created with no agenda, among friends, has gone so terrible wrong - even not satisfactory for the designer himself.
I still don't understand the quote "The best films give back to you what you bring to them." Can somebody explain?
I scrolled up multiple times completely forgetting I'm on CZcams not on Facebook
Who do you think the 3rd installment of the technocrat trilogy would be about?
The story of Silk Road would be prime source material. A lot of overlapping themes with The Social Network and Steve Jobs. I would recommend Wired Magazine's two parter on the story: www.wired.com/2015/04/silk-road-1/
Elon Musk?
Bill Gates
lui yes.
Bezos
Hand Covers Bruise is one of my go to moods.
And that transition into In Motion....
Love Reznor/Ross' work for this film.
I've really been enjoying watching your videos evolve. From the typography, to animation, to playing with format, you're work is refreshing. Your visual and narrative palette makes me excited to watch, even if the subject is something I have never spared a second thought.
Amazing film.
Writing, direction, storytelling, cinematography, soundtrack, visual effects, sound design, production design, all the things.
Great aesthetic by the way.
Andrew is always out here putting all of us other movie CZcamsrs to shame with just how darn good these videos are. Great work man! The bar keeps being raised!
Wow that's really nice editing. Both to easily fit on on mobil networks but also placing the subject in the most used form of the product. Love it!
Amazing format. Been binging your videos
For a second there I got confused, for my phone set-up looks completely different now 🤣👌
Andrew! This is so good! Love the little touches like the time changing and the battery draining.
I desperately want a sequel with the same cast, writing, and style about Facebook in the years since
such a cool format for the essay man, you snapped.
Love how this is designed. Showing the portrait phone is the primary access point, rather than the landscape monitor
When I started the video on my computer and saw that it was horizontal and that you wanted me to watch it on a phone, I was skeptical. But my goodness was tat an experience
This movie has always stuck with me too. I don't even remember how many times I have watched it in whole and parts, but I just seem to relate to it and feel so connected.
Was planning on re-watching _The Social Network_ this evening, so I’ll check back on this video afterwards. ^_^
First of all I want to praise that vertical, facebook innovative look that your video used, its amazing!!!! Loved it! Keep up the good work!
Secondly, I just rewatched the social network 2 days ago I have so much appreciation for this film its in my top 3 movies of all time. The dialogue is untouched! Every point you made in this video is 100% right and what i feel about this movie.
Something I read yesterday is that QT also said a couple of months ago that it is his favorite movie of the 2010s.
Such a beautiful video, not only the video, but the whole expirience
Super cool format to support the content. Great work!
Fantastic presentation and great content!
Very clever video format. 10/10 Impressive.
A friend of mine once was betrayed by his business partners, all of them in their early 20s. He was devastated, and I asking him if he ever watched The Social Network. He didn't. I told him he must watch it if he ever wants to see both sides of business and relationships. Time just gave me more reasons to appreciate how this film is something else.
I really appreciated that you made the time tick on and the battery deplete, thanks for doing this for my favourite movie
I love this series! And I love your videos and editing man. Inspiring. Keep it up.
Looooooved the video format. took me by surprise.
awesome video, love how your formatted it
Great video! You’ve inspired me to give that movie another, deeper, look.
Thanks for this. I love this movie and you have a great perspective on this. Also I love the vertical viewing for this content. So fitting. You have a great future ahead of you in video making. Keep writing and keep learning
There is an anime series called Serial Experiment Lain that is similar in prediction the truth of nowadays reality where it was released in 1997.
I love Lain.
awesome format for a vid like this
I’m watching this with pretty bad connection so I caught myself trying to continue “scrolling” to the next post when the video stopped loading because that’s what I do when the content doesn’t load on Instagram for example 😅
I've never seen this movie but THIS video is absolute drugs.
Best use of a vertical video ever done by anyone in all time and I'm only a single minute in so far.
You even animated the battery and clock at the top.
Neat touch!
Your editing is beautiful ❤️❤️❤️
Love the style of course, but the content itself is great too! Awesome vid.
love the format of the video, very clever
This video deserves some kind of award for its style.
This was so good Andrew thanks ...
I can't believe that jab you made at The King's Speech. It's still great and I still rewatch it.
I'm giving you my like, but I'm fuming.
Great video! Liked very much!
Awesome video man!!! Really immersing
Love your fb format, loved your video ...
Andrew - this is outstanding! You are incredibly gifted.
Incredible video. Cheers.
Great job!
The most underrated channel about films on youtube. Amazing video, Andrew!
Incredible video! TSN is my personal favorite film of all time, yet as much as I've thought deeply about this movie over the past decade, you were able to illuminate some fresh thoughts and power insights for me. Also, it was simply a well-made video!
I'm thoroughly convinced my film taste & schedule is synced with this channel
I see something
Dude makes the essay
One of the best channels out there!
5:00
People who call television a idiot box are the true idiots.
Wow. Excellent essay and next level use of form. Brilliant.
Very smart presentation and great content - subbed!
This was so good. You should be proud of that. So immersive & smart.
I've probably watched The Social Network more than any other film. Always bringing something new with each viewing.
Kudos on the presentation, but especially the small detail of the battery going down from 82% to 80% over the course of the video. That gave me the feeling of endlessly scrolling down your feed more than anything.
I love the way this video was put together! Deserves all the views!
What a cool format
This might be your best video yet!
Anyone remeber "The Kings speech"?
No? Didn't think so.
I remember. Idk why but I like The King's Speech more than it.
I do. It's a good movie.
Dude, so good. You are so creative, and smart, I love it.
My all-time favorite film reviewed by one of favourite video essayist. It's a good day
This is so inventive! Great video! One of my favourite films!
this is my favorite movie of all time , watch it 3 times since corona
I like what you did there with the likes and comments. Great details.
Incredible movie. Loved that video man !!
Such an innovative video assay👌
Thank you. It's a very good video !!
Now, 10 years later, we have The Social Dilemma.
I love your vertical videos
I think we need more time to decide the best films of the 2010s. I saw one lost with Parasite at number 1 and while it is a great film it seems way to early to put it at number one.
I love *_both_* films, but few things betray "recency bias" more than ranking Parasite first and *_especially_* Green Book last when it comes to the Best Picture Oscar winners of the 2010s.
Great video
