Yeah, there was some okay celebrity gossip in the book (which can't be used in the movie), but I didn't think there was much dramatic interest to build a movie around. That trailer didn't change my mind.
Sorkin gets the benefit of the doubt, though. I didn't think I would care about how a bunch of rich jerks would divide up billions of dollars, but I loved
The Social Network. Maybe he'll make me care about rich jerks playing poker for millions.
And if Michael Cera is playing 'Michael Cera' from
This Is the End in full coked-up ahole mode, that alone would make it worth seeing.
