Nah, Aaron Sorkin just made up a bunch of stuff that didn’t happen because reality wasn’t exciting enough for a movie
It's better to just think of it as an entirely fictional movie loosely based on the events surrounding the origin of Facebook. In that capacity, the movie succeeds exceptionally. It's perfectly paced, smartly written and wonderfully acted.
and still boring
>smartly written
what's this about then
t.brainlet
Someone copied the Elo formulas from a webpage which had the exponent superscripted. Then they pasted it without the superscript, so instead of 10^[expression] you have 10[expression], which makes it nonsensical for a rating system.
ok thanks
Ok ty anon
kek, thanks for sharing, that's pretty funny
picrel from wikipedia
Sorkin pissed me off so much when I saw this scene, both because it was written improperly and because they acted like the roommate was a genius for coming up with the Elo scoring system
another masterclass by fincher. you just don't understand his genius
what exactly is the problem here Mr smarty pants
exactly. it's not a documentary, it's a sleek soap opera
99.9% of the audience won't know or care and you know it (and the 0.9% who do, won't be bothered by it, since it's not a chess movie)
>Smartly written
>Unless you're a smart person
it made for a kino dramatic conceit, love the ending
>BABY YOU'RE A RICH MAN, BABY YOU'RE A RICH MAN
Fincher peaked with this imo (as much as i like most of his other stuff)

It's just a fricking website where people input personal information and photos. The original code is simple as frick. Anyone with basic coding skills could have created it. The reason Facebook became successful was because it was promoted by rich Ivy League homosexuals. They had social status and starting capital that other sites didn't. It wasn't because of their amazing coding abilities.
How many single webdevs were making social networks back then?
Like three, maybe.
The work Zuckerberg did IRL is up for debate but Mark in the movie was gifted.
I thought he stole Facebook from those twins
They hired him to make a Harvard exclusive social network which he did by himself then stole the idea and expanded it to include all college students, took the source code he had already produced and ran with it.
Correct, there wasn't anything complicated about Facebook when it started. Scaling it up required a lot of talented people down the line.
>conceptualizes a multi-billion idea at the age of 19
This is bait, OP. Even the movie shows that it wasn't his idea.
>there wasn't anything complicated about Facebook when it started
Social networks aren't just normal websites. Private messaging, friending and following, and in this case making exclusive subgroups based on what college the user was enrolled in.
It's not like he just followed a youtube tutorial. Keep coping codelets.
this. the backend of the early site was still fairly complex for a 19 year old even back then. zuck is a 150 IQ ashkenazi genius so it was probably trivial for him
>women roastie bad why women bad this movie about women bad huh
Im glad to see your trash thread will just be used to discuss the actual movie. Anons like you need a 3 month ban.
did you not watch the movie or are you just ESL
He watched the first scene, got bored and came here. He wouldn't even know what the movie was about if he didn't read the summary on the info paragraph lol

women would do this too if they were capable of doing anything
