network


this is a perfect timing to watch "the social network" I'd say
i mean, after stories like that suicide boy
i went for this movie today
it was on the list all the while but the decision for today was sudden
=)

the movie itself is impressing. honestly, i'd like to go in again.
its the one movie that i go in expecting a boring storyline but come out blogging about
the last time i had high expectations was on "vampire sucks"
it could be that the director decided to emphasize on the "sucks" part
the movie turned out BAD. the trailer was good, but the movie. URM. YEA. RIGHT.
damnit i wanna talk about the social network.

alright. here's the thing. I think the best part of the story is that its true in such a way that
mark zuckerberg is a nerd. nerds do computers. that's my ....only impression?
he is an asshole nerd. like the facemash. like the blog-bad-about-that-girl-who-dump-me. like the dilution of eduardo's share. 30% to 0.03%. i would have done a crime by that.

this is my type of movie. where the sentences made me go "woooooooo!"
and i'm still browsing for movies.
guess movies are the best thing in life one can ever ask for.

and i'm trying to imagine how do you squeeze everything into 2 hours.
its like people live a life, and all you got is 2hours to show.
that makes the whole film making go awesome possum
sometimes i'm thinking the possibility of me getting involve in any tiny part of the process
stories telling is the best job. they makes wonders.
a good story teller makes the stories SHIMMERS
and a bad one, they go straight to the point. short, and UNsweet.
for example,

  • cinderella: work hard, be patient, good life comes.
  • actual: work hard, sneak to the party even you're not allowed to, OVERdress to draw attention
  • snow white: work hard, be nice, good life comes.
  • actual: run away from home. live with 7 SHORT men. let some random guy marry you.
  • pinocchio: learn from your mistakes. be a real human.
  • actual: go for a random away. go for awesome weird special experience. get wrong and go home tiring. and be alive again

owh bullshit. what other fairy tales? oh. yea. beauty and the beast.
  • beauty and the beast: never look bad on others. Any beast-looking could be the best person
  • actual: get married. and even the bridegroom looks like shit, tell your parents you gonna love him till the end.
  • Prince Frog(idunnothename): never runaway from promises. miracles starts there.
  • actual: kiss an animal regardless of hygiene issue. and do every single stupid promise demanded by the stupid on the other end. for eg promise a frog that you will kiss it if it helps you to take the ball instead of GO HOME AND GET HELP.

and thats, story telling.

"my soul to take" looks good. ya, we'll see.

*there's a quote in "the social network" that i feel like remembering:
"Students of Harvard believe in inventing jobs more than applying for them"
good concept.
