    @franklopez40287 months ago Great video. The audio cuts our in the last minute. 1

    @closetprofit47577 months ago Aaron Sorkin wrote the script for The Social Network, so I think you give Fincher a bit more credit than he deserves. But in an interview Sorkin did later he admitted to asking for Fincher's advice about directing his own dialogue, so it is admittedly Fincher's fault that The Social Network was so good. ...
  • @
    @KyleCorwith7 years ago The mere fact that Fincher has not received an Oscar speaks more about the Academy's mistakes than Fincher's talent. 365

    @TimWhitelast year Amazing work. Love this.
    Though Im pretty sure they used a 6k shots in a 5k timeline printed to a 4k master on Gone Girl, not a 4k timeline.

    @VVFilms7 years ago Thank you so much! I've binged watched at least 15 videos on this channel and I had to hold my urge to click on the hour long Fincher analysis. This channel is definitely up there with Lessons from the Screenplay and Every Frame a Painting. This is some really good quality stuff. As a filmmaker, this is the information I adore rather than After Effects tutorials. Again, thank you so much for the time and effort you put into these videos, I'm inspired. ... 18

    @dubliners09994 years ago If anyone here is a real Fincher fan, just get the 2-disc version of The Social Network and watch the behind the scenes stuff and audio commentary. That's mostly what Indie Film Hustle is repeating (along with a few online facts) here from to . Go to the source. It's much meatier. ... 9

    @MyMomDrank2 years ago It’s the Dead Kennedy’s that did “California Uber-Alles” not the Ramones. GOD. 1
  • @
    @naisammon49868 months ago The Ramones? This is a beautifully, edited, well written, and very well narrated -great voice!-video, I dig it. This seems like such a nitpicky and petty comment on your video but when you let such easy mistakes in it makes me question every “fact” that you say during the whole video.God, this seems so pedantic, but really like when you’re watching an informative video and you’re learning from it you want to know that the things you’re learning are true. I’m not an expert and everything in this video but I know a thing or two about Rock’N’Roll or whatever… Overall just a really high quality, the kind of video that makes me so glad creative people like yourself can use YouTube to make something better than any television network used to make. I’m just saying, I hope everything else I’m watching in the video is factual(that’s the Dead Kennedys by the way, also there’s nothing punk about Mark Zuckerberg either but that’s a gripe I have with David Fincher’s interpretation of him not your cool video). Keep it up, great channel! ...

  • @
    @JuanHernandez-ze3si5 years ago Great video as always. The only thing I would argue is that in "Gone Girl" the villain is, in fact, Ben Affleck's character. If you think about it from Fincher's perspective it makes sense. 6
  • @
    @jasonharrison57657 months ago BoB is some of the darkest horror I've ever read and Barker is a genius level writer, painter and filmmaker. What a talent he is!
    Thanks for this video, it was very interesting 🙏

    @coolvids8417 years ago I wouldn't really consider The Girl with the Dragon Tattoo a failure. Generally, you want to earn 2-3x the budget of the film. The film had a budget of 90 million and made 232.6 million. For an R-rated crime drama, I have to feel Sony was fine with this, especially considering that they were working on a script for The Girl Who Played with Fire up until 2014. ... 45

    @AL13NM5 years ago Favorite Director of all time! Hope Fincher directs the inevitable The Exorcist remake before some hack gets the job. 2

    @fuzzydunlop79285 years ago Bruh Joseph Mazzello was the lead character and emotional center of 'The Pacific' - Band of Brother's sister series (and imo the superior series of the two). Granted, both The Pacific and The Social Network came out around 2010, but it was bit higher profile than his part in The Social Network. Also, be prepared to NEVER live down that Ramones/Dead Kennedys gaff. :P ... 2
