In the 1990s, it was Sandra Bullock running away from falling dead bodies while trying to regain back her identity in the movie The Net.
More than 10 years later (after the dot com crash and the rise of Google)comes - The Social Network also known as Facebook the movie is set for release anytime this year (or maybe early next year).
Watch the teaser trailer here:

According Mashable.com's latest update:
"The Social Network, otherwise known as “the Facebook (Facebook) movie,” is based in part on the book The Accidental Billionaires. It chronicles the formative days of Facebook, from its founding in Mark Zuckerberg’s Harvard dorm room through its early rise to success. Written by Aaron Sorkin and directed by David Fincher, the film stars Jesse Eisenberg as Zuckerberg. It hits theaters this October.
The tag line for the film, “You can’t make 500 million friends without making a few enemies” seems to sum up some of those early days, and the film (or at least the version of the script that I read) is as much an exploration of young people coming to terms with creating something bigger than themselves as much as it is about loyalty, jealousy and money."

Well, sounds like an intriguing-tech-rock star story to me. Of course, I will reserve all comments on the movie until I see it but so far, nothing else could create quite a buzz in Facebook than -- well, Facebook.
