I'd say read another book but I don't think they've ever seen one before.

    Sorkin has one trick that he does well, and it's not even a good trick. Melodramatic speeches are not that hard to do. You probably do that shit in the shower when you win imaginary arguments against your boss. Sorkin just figured out how to make a career out of it.

    The Social Network is the only truly good piece of fiction Sorkin has ever been involved with. Probably because it was adapted from a book so the structure and narrative is already there. Most of the credit goes to the David Finch, Trent Reznor, and the actors.
