It was both awkward and interesting watching the real-life Mark Zuckerberg meet his reel counterpart Jesse Eisenberg, last night as the first-time Academy nominee hosted Saturday Night Live. The sketch started with Eisenberg talking about his true personality in real life as being really cocky and confident as opposed to most of the film characters he played who are "shy and un-assuming." Saturday Night Live's Zuckerberg impersonator Andy Samberg then came out, joining Eisenberg while the real Zuckerberg complained in the backstage, stating he should be in front of the camera as he is the real Zuckerberg who invented "poking." Samberg, calling the situation "awk-berg" slid out of the picture when Zuckerberg finally came out joining Eisenberg, who apparently were just meeting each other for the first time. The man behind FaceBook and the face of the critically acclaimed The Social Network ended the sketch with a high-five after Zuckerberg answered Eisenberg's question, "What did you think [of the film]?" Zuckerberg replied, "It was interesting."SOURCES: New York Post; YouTube video from MikeBrandShow
