>> I found it particularly bizarre that social media had become such an important aspect of our lives as to demand a “creation myth” account of its inception. The 'creation myth' already existed, and just like the 'creation myth' of Apple, what we get down the road is the badly-watered-down, Hollywood version of the 'broken telephone' conversation about the myth...which is a lot of degrees of separation from the truth. And the problem is, people are going into the theatre expecting certain events to happen based off of entirely fictional past events. >> The only thing I enjoyed about that movie were the Elo formulae and the soundtrack (the metal rendition of Grieg’s In The Hall Of The Mountain King that runs behind the rowing race is particularly good, as is the track titled “Painted Sun in Abstract”). I think everyone can agree if there's an upside to that film it's certainly Reznor's soundtrack. :-)
