Aaron Sorkin is MY LORD AND SAVIOR

Husband and I went to the movies see "The Social Network" tonight.

The sad part? It's the first actual movie in a theater we've seen in 2010.

The great part? EVERYTHING SINGLE THING ELSE.

(For serious, only Aaron could make two hours of people talking and typing on keyboards absolutely gripping. Also, bonus!JT for the win.)

YOUR SPORTS NIGHT ICON MAKES ME POSITIVELY GLEEFUL!

Hee! I loved that show LIKE CRAZY. If only I'd known about fandom (and slash!) back then, I'm sure I would've been right in the thick of things. :)

i've heard good things about it - and I am curious to find out more about this "facebook" thingie.

It's the trifecta of great writing/great directing/great acting. The point of the story itself ended up being kind of by-the-by for me.

Yeah, MySpace, what the hell is that? [/Dean]

...some kind of porn site?

I'm so glad you liked it!!! I want to see it :)

[deirdre_c]

It was terrific! The casting/acting was phenomenal and the banter was classic Sorkin.

Sports Night icon!

I haven't seen the movie yet, but there's no way I'd miss it.

FUN!

There were certain lines in it that made me miss West Wing and/or Sports Night so much I wanted to CRY. Oh Sorking Snark, I love you so.

I listened to Justin all day yesterday in prep for seeing this movie! I'm stoked you liked it!

Even despite all the good reviews, I went into it not expecting all that much and was SO SURPRISED by how caught up in it I was. Anti-heros ftw!
