02.04.11	DVD	Finchers Facebook flick. Expectantly good. A tad overhyped but evened out by the quality of special features on the DVD. Fincher's on a short list of directors who are always interesting in commentary tracks. Plus having a feature-length fully-produced doc on the supplements isn't bad at all. Benjamin Button and Panic Room both have better supplements than actual films in my opinion but whatever. This was good. A bit exhausting due to Sorkin's dialogue, but much more interesting than you'd think it should be. Of course, pretty much everyone in the movie can go suck it because they are all in this weird world where everyone either makes three hundred grand during the summer or goes to the olympics or becomes a billionaire just for having a nerd roomate. That's Harvard I guess. It's also interesting to see that thanks to the settlements of all the cases in question, nobody walked away with less than 65 million dollars. So maybe the movie's even better for making you empathize with any of these rich bastards because nobobdy REALLY loses. Bah. Sooo... yeah, pretty good.
