Jeez, talk about hypocrisy. “It’s not all about you”? I love that they call Zuckerberg out on his “hoodie and flip-flop schtick” while being interviewed in front of racing boats, interspersed with clips of them rowing.

“Grow up” would be a good idea for the Winklevii as well.
Will
Personally, I think Zuckerberg has looked fairly cool headed about the whole thing, Rashad, but it’s a matter of personal opinion.
Maxim
I agree, Zuckerberg is the man behind Facebook’s success and has maintained not only real leadership of it but, throughout it all, real vision and control. He is the very definition of a great CEO.

This is pretty poor journalism…. Friends interviewing eachother? And it’s not even an interview, just an area for them to rant about how they got cheated. Oh, and the last two seconds are hilarious.
Hahaha telling Mark “grow up” maybe that is what these guys should do. Be happy they got $65m and keep living off Daddy’s money or maybe practice rowing so the US can get actually metal at the next Olympics….

Funny how I find Armie Hammer FAR MORE engaging than the real Winklevi. Maybe Aaron Sorkin could punch up their tired (and snooze-enducing) rants here with a little clever wordsmithing.

Armie Hammer (and Josh Pence’s torso, to be fair) actually made these guys less of caricatures then they actually are.
Wow. These guys owe Armie Hammer huge for his performance, he makes them seem far less engorged in their own egos than they actually are.

They’re 6’5, 220 lbs.
And there are four of them.

Ugh! these douchebags. You got 65million, shut the hell up.
Afrika
And to all those saying that Armie made these guys seem less of a caricature than they really are,
It’s simply because Sorkin has an anti-facebook agenda. He wrote the script with the sole intention of character assassinating Zuckerberg; everything else was secondary.

They’re pretty douchy. Their attitude seems to be “just admit you stole it so we’ll leave you alone.”
parker
she SO wants them to double team her
Zac
I bet that 99% of the people in the country would switch places with these guys in a heartbeat. The other 1% have as much or more money then they do.
They come off as entitled douchebags who are feeling butthurt that someone they knew is making billions while they have a pittance of $150 million.
Take the money, shut the fuck up and disappear.
Charlie
@parker – So true.
Ed D.
Wow, I didn’t know it was $65 MILLION (then again I haven’t made much of an attempt to keep track of any of the real-life Zuckerberg/Winklevi stuff)…
Also, parker, if they’ve known each other since childhood, there’s a good chance they already have. lol.
The more you learn about these guys, the clearer it becomes that they sorely lacked the vision & entrepreneurial instincts to take their idea beyond Harvard’s storied walls, to the global success that Zuckerberg has achieved (with the help of some key players, of course). Zuckerberg had vision, drive, intellect, and programming chops. They had buff bods, a privileged family history, and an INKLING of an idea. Losers. Wish they would just GO AWAY!

It’s a sad indictment that the courts actually heard this case and even sadder that they were given money….. I hope their wives cheat on them then take half their money- they need to learn that life isn’t fair in the harshest way possible. I’ve NEVER hated a person I’d never met, until researching these two pathetically entitled bags of douche.

Yeah, I saw this the other day. If this is how they want to run a news organization …
Funny how Zuckerberg has emerged looking fairly OK after last year while the Winkelvii …
Zuckerberg looks worse.

This video was weird.
Wow. What crybabies these guys are.
