So F*cking Special: The Social Network International Trailer Has A Bonus

When I saw the first trailer for the Facebook movie, The Social Network, I was a little bit ashamed to admit that I thought it actually looked pretty good. Sure, it has David Fincher directing, Aaron Sorkin writing, and Trent Reznor composing. But still, it’s a movie about Facebook. But the trailer was a homerun. Well, except for one little part.

The trailer is set to Radiohead’s “Creep,” as covered by Scala & Kolacny Brothers. If you liked music at any point in the 1990s, it’s probably one of your favorite songs. But the American trailer neutered it by changing the key lyric “you’re so fucking special” to “you’re so very special.” So lame. I cringe every time I hear it. Luckily, those outside the U.S. aren’t quite as prude as we are.
