After a successful showing as a close copy of Facebook guru, Mark Zuckerberg in ‘The Social Network.’ the career path of Jesse Eisenberg was on the way up. But his new film ’30 Minutes or Less’ may derail such dreams. The film closely mirrors a real-life tragedy and people are fuming.
In 2006 a seemingly innocent Pizza delivery man named Brian Wells told police he was forced to rob a bank. He later died after a stand-off with cops when a bomb fixed to his neck by those he said were responsible exploded. And his friends are incensed that Columbia pictures thinks their tragic loss is a

With the tease from Mark Zuckerberg that he would “launch something awesome” at 1 p.m. EST, Facebook users were introduced to a few new features today.
Chief among them is what Zuckerberg referred to as “video calling” during an announcement from Palo Alto. The chat system will combine with Skype to work as an application within Facebook; there won’t be any separate download required.
