    The dialogue and writing in the Social Network is absolutely unbearable. There’s a lot going for it elsewhere , but the writing style and the back and forth dialogue in it is like absolute nails on a chalkboard to me.

    Tried watching the opening bar scene on YouTube just now, and had to give up a few minutes in.

    The dialogue is one of the greatest things about it, imo. The delivery from the actors is what solidifies it, however.

    You have reached the limit of my baseball knowledge, but don't they have great teams because they can buy the best players?

    Social Network is one of the few films that can make Sorkin's dialogue bearable over a two hour run time.

    Let’s not forget Reznor and Ross’ score, although, I now hear Ken Burns’ Vietnam War while listening to it.

    The Social Network is the worst film in the bracket. It's been 10 years since I sat through those dorks talking about Facebook, I find solace in that growing older and as each year passes, I forget more of this movie.

    I only wish it had been knocked out by Hereditary instead.

    The Social Network was the 12th best film of 2010. There is no need to argue.

    Hey, it's not our fault that these folks just didn't get the genius of the movie.

    If they want to sit on my shoulders and call themselves tall, they have the right to give it a try - but there's no requirement that I enjoy sitting here listening to people lie

    It’s a great movie, it’s just not as good as the select few greatest movies of all time

    With 71 percent of the vote, The Godfather will face In the Mood for Love in the Round of 32.
