The official website for director David Fincher's THE SOCIAL NETWORK has finally been given a pretty big update, adding just under fifty new production stills from the hotly anticipated film.

A few handfuls of the images are below. To see all of them (and bigger), click any of the pics here or head over to the film's official site.

And while there, turn up your volume. Is that eerie music playing in the background a sampling of Trent Reznor's score from the film? Maybe. If so, I'm kinda loving how unexpectedly dark it is.

THE SOCIAL NETWORK opens October 1st.

Synopsis: On a fall night in 2003, Harvard undergrad and computer programming genius Mark Zuckerberg sits down at his computer and heatedly begins working on a new idea. In a fury of blogging and programming, what begins in his dorm room soon becomes a global social network and a revolution in communication. A mere six years and 500 million friends later, Mark Zuckerberg is the youngest billionaire in history... but for this entrepreneur, success leads to both personal and legal complications. From director David Fincher and screenwriter Aaron Sorkin comes The Social Network, a film that proves you don't get to 500 million friends without making a few enemies. Based on the book "The Accidental Billionaires" by Ben Mezrich.

I have a Facebook account, haven't used it in months and don't think I'll ever go back...hearing Zuckerbitch's comments Facebook users supports my stand, but I think seeing TSN (and one of the few actors I can't stand play Zuckerberg) will solidify it.



And that score: EPIC WIN.

I've been a long time fan of Reznor but man is that one hell of a dark, foreboding score for a dramedy about Facebook. Sounds like an outtake from 'The Dark Night' Joker theme.

Still don't give a shit about the movie, never will. The score, on the other hand... GIMME.

This will be great
I've never understood anyone's problem with this movie. The script is brilliant, David Fincher is directing, and Trent Reznor is scoring it. It isn't really a movie about Facebook either, it's about a founding of a company and what the lust of power a money does to a friendship. Hate the movie for the people involved and what it's REALLY about, not because it's "about" Facebook.

I'm afraid...
I'll see the movie because it's Fincher but I'm afraid that it'll be the first movie that I don't like that he directed.



Much like when Kevin Smith did "Cop Out".



I already know the story of how Facebook was created. The lawsuits, the copyrights, the players involved.

Who knew nerds could be surrounded by such hot chicks!? That's totally unrealistic!

I would say the appropriate counter is:
Smart dudes can be sexy too.

"and therefore assume beautiful girls can't be intelligent"

Yes, when I wrote that thing before I totally meant what you said.

They are not nerds; they are genius' who attend Harvard University. The "hot chicks" are students of that university, so unless you believe there are no attractive women at Harvard (and therefore assume beautiful girls can't be intelligent), it is certainly realistic. Besides, most of the girls ignore him until he becomes famous, which makes sense.

BLUE TABLES AND DIFFERENTIAL EQUATIONS!
...and Trent Reznor's soundtrack is a big draw for me. It looks to me at least to be a good character study - corruption by power, greed, etc.

This would make a much better slasher film. "Your status has been updated to 'dead.' Bwahaha!" Or, whatever...

Big fan of both Fincher and Trent Reznor's work, and find Facebook fairly useful, but I still doubt I'd actually pay much money to watch this movie. Just doesn't grab me as being essential cinema viewing. Maybe when it gets cheap on DVD.

I can barely stand Facebook yet alone a movie about how it came to be... a big PASS by me, even though I love Fincher...

FAcebook is what it is a communication tool, yeah there's douchebags on facebook but maybe that means all your friends are douchebags if you can't stand it so much. Fincher is Brilliant and I have faith in him. Arrow I hope u change your mind and choose to see this when it comes out...if not for the naked hookers and blow scene if anything! ;)

I hold little to no interest in this movie. I'd rather watch grass grow, personally.
