"Sorkinisms"

I'm not the biggest Aaron Sorkin follower. I've never watched the West Wing, and don't know half the shows that are seen in this clip. That said, I'm a huge fan of "The Social Network" and think it's one of the best written films I've seen in years.

Today I watched this vid (embedded below) that shows how much of Sorkin's dialogue is regurgitated from project to project. In know way do I show this to say "Ha... that's shitty", but instead post it to say "Ha... if Sorkin can regurgitate dialogue in his scripts, then surely a lowly wannabe like me can get away with it as well!"



What show is that with Nate from Six Feet Under?! That guys awesome.
