You say that The Social Network only tells half the story. I think it tells less than that. The movie really isn’t about Facebook at all. We hardly see anyone use it. It’s about the exploitation of a groundbreaking technology for profit. And if that technology is invasive or isolating to friendships, screw it. Where’s the new social network that will make billions by invading our dreams? There’s another recent movie that attacked that issue brilliantly. It’s called Inception, and you’re in it.
An Open Letter to Joseph Gordon-Levitt, Re: ‘The Social Network’ | The Travers Take.  I’m indifferent to the movie but I like this back-and-forth and not just because it involves Tumblr, not Facebook.
