The Social Network is a drama movie directed by David Fincher and written by Aaron Sorkin. It featured the actor Jesse Eisenberg who portrayed Mark Zuckerberg. It was released in the U.S. by Columbia Pictures on Oct. 1, 2010.

For the first time, Mark Zuckerberg discusses his reactions to the movie in a public Q&A held at the Facebook headquarters. When the Q&A event was announced in Facebook, Zuckerberg even encouraged users to ask him a question or vote on a question which they would like him to answer.

"I'll be hosting our first public Q&A at Facebook," said Zuckerberg. "Ask me a question below in the comments, or vote on a question you want me to answer by liking it. I'll be answering questions for about an hour, and will try to get through as many as I can."

In the Q&A, Zuckerberg said he was hurt by how the movie has portrayed him. He also believed that the movie made it appear like he created Facebook in order to attract women while he was attending the university.

"They just kind of made up a bunch of stuff that I found really hurtful," said Zuckerberg. "They made up this whole plot line about how I somehow decided to create Facebook to attract girls."

In the film, Zuckerberg's inventing of Facebook was purportedly spurned by an ex-girlfriend. It also showed how he became a ladies' man as soon as the platform was launched. In reality, Zuckerberg said that his love life is much more sedate.

"One important piece of context is, the woman who I'm married to, who I've been dating for more than 10 years, and I've known for more than 10 years, I was actually dating her before I even started Facebook," added Zuckerberg. He was referring to Priscilla Chan, the woman he married in 2010.

Zuckerberg mentioned how the movie was able to get some interesting details correct such as the design of the office. However, the plot and all the other details such as the reason for building Facebook and how it was built were all just made up which he felt was hurtful.

"I think the reality is that writing code and building a product and then building a company actually is not a glamorous enough thing to make a movie about. So you can imagine that a lot of the stuff they probably had to embellish and make up. If they were really making a movie, it would have been of me, sitting at a computer, coding for two hours straight, which probably would have just not been that good of a movie and these guys, I think, want to win awards and sell tickets," said Zuckerberg.
