Is anyone else getting really sick of the Social Network trailer?

I had already heard of The Social Network, the new bio-pic of Mark Zuckerman that focuses on the creation of Facebook, before I first saw its trailer. I am a bit of a fan of the director of the film, David Fincher, and had been gradually getting more excited for this film as time went on. When I first saw that trailer, I was annoyed at the song choice but it was a good trailer overall. The second time I saw it, the song got on my nerves a little but it still looked great. The third time I saw it, I had begun hating the song and the film looked a lot less... I dunno... appealing. The fourth time I saw the trailer... you see where I'm going with this.

I applaud the effort that's being put into the marketing of The Social Network but that trailer, and especially that song, are completely draining my will to see this movie. So I reiterate my original question:

Is anyone else getting really sick of the Social Network trailer?

I'll just go watch Pirates of Silicon Valley again. More entertaining, realistic, NOT-OVERPRODUCED and fabricated drama.

Has anyone else misinterpret the thread title as "Want a perfect Booty"? -.-

I haven't seen the trailer yet, but I heard about it.
I don't care if the movie's about Facebook, I believe that anything would have the potential to be great no matter how bad the idea may sound at first.
But that doesn't mean it WILL be good.
Also, this film is directed by David Fincher, who directed Fight Club, my all-time favorite film, so I'm hoping it's good.

Also, why were you watching the trailer so much?

I go to the theater. A lot. I see 3 to 5 movies a week in a theater and this trailer plays before every film rated 14A (PG-13 for Americans) or higher.

Actually, I think the song choice was interesting, but a question I really want to ask is knowing what you know about the Social Network, trailer or commercials or otherwise, does it make you want to see it anymore or any less?

I think it looks interesting (I am not a facebook user, never plan to be one) and kind of mellow compared to Fincher's last project The Curious Case of Benjamin Button but hopefully just a relax kind of movie before he does the hopeful remake of Heavy Metal [http://www.firstshowing.net/2010/03/12/david-finchers-heavy-metal-movie-still-rocking-now-in-3-d/]
But I do want to see it, and the song choice will carry some kind of meaning later, I'm sure, so no....but the version he chose, it does border a bit on annoying.

Less. A bit less.

I have seen this trailer 7 or 8 times now; whenever this happens there's a good chance that a scene will have less of an impact on me, be it emotionally or otherwise. It's not dissimilar to a joke in a comedy trailer being shown over and over; by the time you watch the scene that features the joke it is no longer funny and is often annoying. I'll bet that the "I would like some recognition" line, a line I found amusing at first but now don't feel anything at all about it, has been completely ruined for me, though I won't know until I see the movie.

I read it as "body" but "booty" seems more fun.

I haven't seen the trailer. I also don't have a TV so the only way I'd see it is if I went looking for it.

This is the first I've ever heard of it, so not really. I'll just stop looking at this thread if it does get annoying to me though, I guess.

I don't care for the movie so much but I have been listening to the song on Youtube a lot as well as the other songs from the Scala Brothers Choir. They are awesome!

I thought Body, what is the title referencing? I'm so confused.

OT: the movie looks meh, it could be good, more likely it's going to be middle of the road. They are obviously trying to sell it to our generation of social media users but I feel their target audience isn't interested in the style of flick, I'm no doubt wrong though.
