John Tucker Must Die dvd The Condemned full movie Columbia Pictures has announced that the Facebook movie is set to start production in October. Hollywood has invested a lot into this movie and has pulled out the big guns to get it made. Hiring Aaron Sorkin (writer and creator of “The West Wing”) and David Fincher (“Fight Club”) to direct. The film is based off the Ben Mezrich bestselling book “The Accidental Billionaires” about Mark Zuckerberg and the team behind the popular social network.

Whirlwind movie

Hollywood is trying to bank off the success of the extremely popular social network that everyone and their dog is on, connecting with friends, family, and reconnecting with those from the past. A lot of people predict this to be a boring pointless movie but reviews of the script so far have been very positive. The story will dive more into the behind the scenes of the people involved opposed to the actual site itself.

Early rumors are that Michael Cera or Shia LeBeaouf could potentially star as Mark Zuckerberg, the youngest billionaire of all time.

download Amazing Grace movie I’m not sure what to think of this movie.  It’s obvious they are making a quick buck off the thrill of facebook.  I read Ben Mezrich’s book and even though he is one of my favorite authors, I don’t think this was one of his best books.  It’s a fast paced easy read and he does his best to make the material interesting and uses his skill to colorize events that you know in reality are completely dull.  I am sure they will do the same with the movie.  But I loved his book “Bringing Down the House” and hated the adaptation of “21.”  I was really excited for that movie based on my love for the book and was thoroughly disappointed.  I have to believe this movie will be much of the same, even though they crafted the dream team to write and direct it.  This movie will try to be something it’s not and will be mildly entertaining with people leaving saying “eh, bet none of that is what really happened,” and they will be right.

Who would you like to see play Mark Zuckerberg?
