10 Awesome Movie Characters Who Got Totally Shafted

9. Eduardo Saverin - The Social Network

The Social Network Andrew GarfieldWhy He's Awesome: The handsome, likeable business end of Facebook, and also the more sociable part of the Zuckerberg-Saverin partnership, at least until flashy Napster honcho Sean Parker comes along and screws it all up. How He Got Shafted: Parker ends up persuading Zuckerberg to cut Saverin out of Facebook, and while this might be a result of Eduardo's own naivete in failing to read the small print of his contract, the guy's genuine nature meant that this thought never even entered into his mind. Despite getting massively screwed over, things did work out in the end eventually (sort of); Saverin received a gigantic payout, and his name was restored to the Facebook masthead. His friendship with Zuckerberg, meanwhile, is dead...but at least he isn't.
