Uh.... no mention of David Bowie being in this movie?!!

David Bowie is in this movie!

Honestly, it looks awful. And the plot has been done a million times over.

Maybe you have to live near the Silicon Valley and know dudes like this to appreciate it!

Zomg! David Bowie! I'm there. Is it August yet?

I'll be first in line at my theatre too Smiling startups are part of my job, it will be nice seeing them in a movie, even if they're poorly represented.

This won't top his "cameo" in the Venture Bros., but I may watch it just for the Bowie.

I'm gonna see it just for Josh Hartnett! Who cares about Bowie?

If I was pitched a movie about the dot-com bubble bursting and the rise and fall of a start-up, I'd be Fandango-ing already — but then, again, I was the girl who loved Pirates of Silicon Valley. Hollywood execs know that nongeeks need to be drawn to see their movies, too, so they add sex and flash — which they did here with the upcoming film August. And it works!

Josh Hartnett is the CEO of fictional start-up Landshark, which appears to hit the big time in the early 2000s, and his swagger is not Hollywood crafted, rather, he seems like he did his research on Valleywag to get into character. I'll be first in line!
