Mark Zuckerberg recently spoke about the movie 'The Social Network', which tells the story of Facebook's founding. He described the experience of watching the movie as 'weird' and noted that while some details were accurate, the overall narrative was incorrect. Zuckerberg also discussed how the movie has affected people's understanding of Facebook's early days.

Zuckerberg mentioned that he took Facebook employees to see the movie when it was released, and he has only seen it once. He criticized the movie's portrayal of his motivations for creating Facebook, stating that it was not about finding a girlfriend or gaining popularity. Instead, he emphasized that he was already dating his future wife, Priscilla, when he started Facebook.

Facemash and Facebook

Zuckerberg also addressed the movie's depiction of Facemash, a website he created as a student that allowed users to compare the photos of two students and vote on which one was more attractive. He denied that Facemash was a precursor to Facebook, but acknowledged that the movie has led many people to link the two.

Overall, Zuckerberg's comments provide insight into his thoughts on 'The Social Network' and its impact on the public's perception of Facebook's history.
