Free Music From Trent Reznor

We reported some weeks ago that there's a movie coming out about the founding of Facebook. It's got a pretty impressive pedigree too: directed by David Fincher (Fight Club, Se7en, The Curious Case of Benjamin Button), written by Aaron Sorkin (A Few Good Men, The West Wing), and has a solid cast.

What we failed to mention before is that Trent Reznor (NIN, How to Destroy Angels) was hired to score the film. And Trent's all about free music and stuff, so he's released a free 5-track EP from the soundtrack. If you want to check it out, head here. He's also worked a deal with Amazon in which you can buy the whole album, all 19 tracks, for $2.99 for a limited time (9/28 and 9/29) by going to Amazon.com on those days. There are tons of options for pre-ordering the soundtrack if you go to the EP link above.

There's also a new, interactive, trailer for the film embedded below. Nice to see the studio playing up the webbiness of the flick.



I'm still not sold on the film, which opens October 1. On paper it should be awesome but the trailers aren't killing it for me. How about you all?

Trailer: The Social Network

I was pretty psyched to see The Social Network. It's directed by David Fincher! Normally, that's all I need to know, but it's also written by Aaron Sorkin, who wrote for The West Wing and Sports Night, and also penned the screenplay for A Few Good Men.

So when I heard the trailer was released yesterday, I was beyond excited.

Until I saw it.



Maybe it's just me, but that does not make me want to see the film at all. I know it's just a teaser and all, but I'm not sure this would pique the interest of someone with no knowledge of the film. What do you think?
