    Jesse Eisenberg acted like quite the jerk when he played Mark Zuckerberg in “The Social Network,” and it seems maybe playing that character wasn’t too much of a stretch for the 29-year-old actor.


    Try reading some real journalism. The link below paints a better picture of Eisenberg.

    I thought Jesse played it fine. I laughed. The interviewer sucks. No. 1: Come prepared. No. 2: Don't be a gimmick. No. 3: Have a thicker skin than almost being brought to tears over being compared to Carrot Top when he could have called you much worse. Do these things and maybe the person you're interviewing -- a guy who has been interviewed thousands of times by some of the top entertainment reporters in the business over the past decade -- may not think you're a complete amateur. It's not his job to make you look good, and I think he actually did more work to carry that interview than the reporter.

    She actually held her own remarkably well.

    Total bullshit. It's fake-flirty banter. He's giving her grief, she's playing along. She spent half the interview asking the subject to say her name into the camera. She's trying to get attention, and she's done a good job, plenty more than she would have by just doing whatever her job is.

    Jerk? I don't know, but he's got no business in acting. Can't do that at all.
