The previous trailer for the upcoming Facebook Movie - The Social Network - was just a load of cheesy one liners over some buzz words. We weren't impressed. To be honest it looked as if it might be a bit of a dud.

But now, we're whistling a different tune about The Social Network after the release of the latest trailer. Because, with action, the movie looks like it's going to be pretty good - even the Justin Timberlake scenes seem bearable.

We should have had more faith in David Fincher, whose resume includes directing Fight Club, Se7en, Alien 3 and The Game.

The Social Network is loosely adapted from Ben Mezrich's book The Accidental Billionaires: The Founding Of Facebook, A Tale of Sex, Money, Genius, and Betrayal and focuses on Facebook's beginnings during Mark Zuckerberg's time at Harvard University in 2003.

The film is due out in the States on 1 October, with a global release in the weeks after that.
