Is 'The Social Network' the Best Movie of the Decade? | The Rewatchables | The Ringer 

this film remains a masterpiece, every single frame of it is brilliant.

If you want to know why they consider this movie the best of the decade starts at 12:00 Loneliness is becoming a more common American problem and Mark Zukerberg's character is an isolated college guy who can't connect with his college peers. Is this not the narrative of Millennials and Generation Z? This movie identifies the large problem of the 2010 decade: people becoming more socially awkward because of so much screen time. We are in an "Alone together" situation we don't know how to get out of.

My most watchable scenes is when Sean Parker takes them out on the town and they feel cool for probably the first time in their lives.

The movie is absolutely brilliant, genuinely one of the best screenplays I've ever seen

How can they not nominate the Club Scene for the best scene in the movie... its fucking incredible

Zodiac I can honestly say is my favorite movie that's coming out in the past 25 years.

It’s great. I think my favorite movie of the 2010s is Inception which came out in July 2010. But the Social Network, The Wolf of Wallstreet, and Bladerunner 2049 are really close

Eisenberg has a really underrated streak this decade. 30 Minutes or Less, Why Stop Now, END OF THE TOUR, Art of Self Defense, The Double. Jesse has range berg.

Jessie Eisenberg seems tailor-made for Wes Anderson movies. Why hasn't he been cast in one?

You guys did what people do always - you said "executive producer Kevin Spacey" aged the worst without knowing for sure that he was guilty. Show grace to people.

A Separation has to be up there. The Master. Inside Llewyn Davis. Three Billboards. Parasite. Once Upon a Time in Hollywood.

In a word, yes. Absolutely

Listened to this on UT...got tired of the ads......then switched to Sp**ify and enjoyed it royally...........can't wait to listen to Training Day later........Bill Sean and CR. And AG. Please for the rest of them!

Absolutely. Best movie of the decade, STILL.

INCEPTION

My personal favorites from 2010s. Dunkirk, Blade Runner 2049, Wolf Of Wallstreet, The Irishman (majorly flawed, but i still like) Beasts of No Nation, Sicario, Gone Girl, Social, Dragon Tattoo (Fincher)

Bill Simmons, CR, and Sean Fennessey are the Murderers Row of movie podcasters.

*Is Chris Ryan related to Bob Ryan who represents Boston on ESPN sometimes?? 🤔*

First came out May 24 2018 - FYI

The Grand Budapest Hotel in the conversation for the 2010s.

Subtly brilliant this movie!

Brown University alum -- John Krasinski

But Drive came out in 2011

Social Network: Best Movie Wolf On Wall Street: Best Individual Performance Avengers Infinity War: Best Event Movie

Yes. Yes it is.

They need to do ‘BLOW’

yes.

Please i need a link... I wanna download this movie I haven't seen the movie... Please someone help a brother out...😭😭😭

The Social Network is so much better than Get Out. It’s not even close.

Transformers: Dark of The Moon was easily the best movie of the last 10 years.

Holy shit the groupthink..

no

We all live in purgatory ie social media

for me, the dialogue and acting are unimpeachable. Hot take: sorkin's writing means more to this movie than Fincher's directing. Maybe by only a couple of hairs but still Sorkin matters more.

Emma Watson went to Brown

Classic movie

Hell or High Water

The creation of FB wasn't quite Watergate... It's crazy to see how it use to look at launch now though! It jumps around too much and never really hammers home any of the subplots... The prologue helps but it'd made it way better to see their outcomes! Just started watching these

I think Timberlake was snubbed hard for a supporting actor nom

Yes it is. That being said, the 10's hasn't been the greatest movie decade.

It is, and will only grow in stature because of the dangerous and vast influence Facebook has on everything we do even if you aren’t on it.

No

You typed rolling stones

Read the title of this video and just came here to say FUCK NO

Here’s my list of the best movies of the decade. I would love to hear what you guys think! 1. Blade Runner 2049 (2017) - 2049 is a masterpiece in film and art. It’s deliberate in every way from music, pace, casting, and visuals. It’s not everyone's’ cup of tea, but that’s what makes it stand above the rest. It isn’t trying to please everyone...it’s only trying to be a great film. 2. The Social Network (2010) - You guys did a pretty good job of covering why it should be one of the best films of the decade. It is the only film I’ve bought a physical copy of in the past 9 years. I would like to mention Her (2013). I don’t think it deserves a spot in the top 10 but I think it’s another film that people will look back on differently as AI becomes more prevalent in everyday life. 3. John Wick (2014) - It’s like fine wine. It gets better as time goes by. It’s the Baba Yaga of films. 4. Inside Out (2015) - I think almost anyone can relate to this movie. It was huge, it’s beautiful, it has a great cast, and it has real emotional impact. I wouldn’t be surprised if this was replaced by Frozen (2013) though. 5. Interstellar (2014) - This was the hardest for me. I like Gravity (2014), the Martian (2015), and Dunkirk (2017). But none of them had same mainstream impact that Interstellar did. There were references in other movies, The Simpsons, South Park, and more. I think it would be more appropriate to replace Interstellar with Christopher Nolan because he really knocked it out of the park this decade. 6. Black Swan (2010) - If I could The Wrestler (2008) would take this spot, but it was two years too early. The Wrestler started it all but Black Swan did it best compared to Whiplash (2014) and Birdman (2014). 7. Creed (2015) - The seamless long fight scene has probably had the biggest impact on this decades filmmakers. I’ve seen it reproduce countless of times now, but no one did it as good. The RU-vid video has over 3 million views.It’s also the breakout for Michael B. Jordan and a return to glory for Rocky. 8. The Theory of Everything (2014) - Actually scratch that! Number 8 belongs to Johann Johannsson who also scored Sicario (2015) and Arrival (2016) Edit: RIP Johann 9. La La Land (2016) - When was the last time everyone like a musical?! I was thinking about placing The Wolf of Wall Street (2013) and Gone Girl (2014) here but I wasn’t feeling it. They’re just not as decade defining. 10. Avengers: Infinity War (2018) - This has to be on any list regarding the best films of the decade. Not because of the quality but because of the effort and build up that went into this movie. It was also the first Marvel movie in which the villain was the main character. [Personally I would replace this with Coco which I saw about 4-5 times in theater but I don’t think other people have as big of an emotional connection]. Other HRs: Scott Pilgrim vs The World (2010), End of Watch (2012), Dallas Buyers Club (2013), Fury (2014)

The King's Speech is a great movie, though.

Nope. Couldn't even watch the whole movie. Especially with a lead actor who has one expression on his face. Three Billboards was much better and had people that could act in it.

Its a great movie, but the ringer really overhypes it honestly. If the exact same movie made in the exact same way didnt have fincher or sorkins name attached to it it would just be considered a good movie but definitely not the best of the decade. The movie is made masterfully, but the topic of the movie (imo) is just not super interesting and is mostly made up and not what happened.

Wolf of Wall Street was the best movie of the 2010s.

I would chose inception

social network is not the best movie of the decade but it sure as hell should have won best picture over that piece of trash king's speech

Great movie but these guys are exaggerating it's importance.

wow....this is an interesting debate but definitely is not the best of the decade....that for me will be between DUNKIRK, 1917 OR BLADE RUNNER 2049. In mi opinion.

Simmons: I think this is Finchers Apex Mountain and here’s my reason why: I’m currently doing a podcast about this movie, so of course it is. Just cuz. (Example: right after this, Bill Simmons tried to pitch THIS MOVIE as Mark Z Apex Mtn! Bill then Pitched this movie is higher up for Zuck then INVENTING FACEBOOK!” Remove bill off Rewatchables podcast= The Rewatchables APEX MOUNTAIN PODCAST. No bill means no ridiculous takes. Period.

I would throw The Theory of Everything in the running for best movie of the decade.

No not at all

True Grit and Hell Or High Water both better by miles

No Inception is the best of the Decade. So it is not even the best of that year in my opinion as they were both out in 2010.

Parasite is easily better than Social Network (of 2010s best movies)

Is it the best movie of the decade? In a word, Nah

Not even close.

Best movie of the decade????? Not even in the conversation.

Nope, saw it once and have no interest in seeing again...

Is this a joke? Best of the decade rofl its not even the best movie in 2010 Inception, Toy Story 3, Black Swan hell even The Fighter is a better movie come on guys.

This ain’t the best movie of the 2010s and Get Out isn’t even fucking close...they’re just trying to be woke.

OVERRATED MOVIE
