so there's a tsn sequel in the works, officially

as someone who holds the social network dear to their heart and should probably be excited about this sequel, i find it hard to muster the same excitement for a couple of reasons:

1. the social network was released FIFTEEN YEARS AGO, so once again i am being slapped in the face with the unrelentless passage of time
2. no andrew garfield :( disappointing. like i understand eduardo saverin has no monkeys in the current facebook circus (or if he does it's a very small amount) but idk, cast him as someone else! give him a different haircut! he has the range!
3. why the hell is sorkin directing. it's not like david fincher is doing anything useful nowadays
4. jeremy strong is a bit old for mark (in 2021)? not that he deserves better, but still

but there's also good things!:
1. mickey madison and jeremy allen white could make this interesting
2. jeremy strong will absolutely give the performance of a lifetime. but at what cost
3. i am IN for any media that portrays how harmful facebook has been for.... everything. existing. life. (i still need to read careless people now that i think about it)
4. maybe trent reznor and atticus ross will score it and it will be amazing

i lied, i am a bit excited. like even if it's trash i will be watching it release day. it's hard to believe it will be able to catch the same momentum and space as the first one did, but i'd be lying if tsn wasn't one of the best parts of my online life fifteen years ago (ew i need to stop typing that)

change the director!
