Was really sceptical about this, but this trailer has won me round. Using "Hand Covers Bruise" at the end was perfection, I really hope Trent Reznor and Atticus Ross return to do the score now.

It's Alexandre Desplat doing the score.

The film does look good to though.

As always for me with real-life subject matters like this (especially nowadays) if they do something captivating, relatively objective and politically non-partisan, I'm on board. But I can somehow see them going down the route of "look at the nazi and fascist speech Facebook is allowing", just going from the dramatized "I'm a free-speech absolutist" line by Zuckerberg in the trailer. But we'll see. The Social Network is such a good film, would be a shame if they squandered this chance to make an interesting follow-up.
