I'm hoping Sorkin's movie is better. We'll see.

There is a very good chance it will be better, but Sorkin had to take considerable liberties to make The Social Network work as a movie. I really liked it because it captured and conveyed the spirit of things people find hard to understand. But you can't do that and be a historically accurate document. And despite Sorkin being a genius, I know several people who thought sitting through The Social Network was torture.
Woz is apparently consulting for Sorkin's version, so I'd take that as a fairly good sign.
