I have high hopes that this'll be as funny as the first half of Fight Club. what did that have to do with fincher? it was all in the writing.

chaosmachine Posted July 21, 2010 Report Share Posted July 21, 2010 I'm sure the pitch was "Everyone is on facebook, so everyone will want to see this movie"... but I suspect they've widely overestimated the number of people interested in startup culture. That said, this will be a hit with the venture captial / tech startup / blogger crowd. (even if it's terrible... especially if it's terrible.)

I really loved the detached, matter-of-fact, info-overload style Fincher was starting to bring to the table with Zodiac, which I think is his best and most mature film by a long shot (I haven't seen that one about reverse-progeria). This could be a good chance to expand on that. But that teaser made me pretty disinterested. Baph you are wholly cool. For starters mentioning Sorkin, then moving on to name Zodiac as Fincher's best, expertly avoiding the by now cliched and wholly uncool teenage angsty Fight Club.

The Game specially made excellent use of all different types of lighting. He normally uses a different cinematographer for all his movies, but he brought back Jeff Cronenweth for The Social Network. He was the ASC for Fight Club. Well, his two last movies are somehow "period" movies (Zodiac and Button), he took a lot of the fluorescent lighting out of them. Basically, Fincher likes Yellow + Black / Green + Black and fluorescent lighting. The Game/Seven/Fight Club/Panic Room all look like that. Zodiac is an hommage to All the President's Men. Alien³ was all reds but that's for the gothic/industrial age aspect Thanks Haha Confused Sad Facepalm Burger Farnsworth Big Brain Like × Quote Hide Bob Dylan's signature Hide all signatures *** This announcement is brought to you by the Shimago-Dominguez Corporation *** helping America into the New World...
