Steve Jobs (2015)

I think the appeal there was that the guy is a doppelganger of Steve Jobs when he was younger. It really is quite remarkable how much he looks like a young Steve Jobs.
I'm not even a fan of Steve Jobs, I think he was a pretty crappy person, but I find the extreme likeness interesting.
Well the downfall of that movie was Lucas. If he wasn't involved it might have been good.

They're just releasing one each year and doing slight updates and improvements that barely each new movie but people will go out of their minds for
Yet Pirates is still the best jobs movie and I cant see it being bettered ever really.
I liked Kutcher as Jobs but the script was horrible.
The subject material isnt even that interesting - he was a massive ****, that made money, ****ed a lot of people off, got fired, made more money and died. Great.
What if it was a film about Bill Gates?

I don't 'get' Apple fanboys but I find the whole story quite amazing, just as I do Mark Zuckerberg etc.
Whilst part of it is to do with not liking Jobs I'm not sure I'd want to see a film about Bill Gates either, whom I actually like. Saying that as it's Adam Sorkin and I am a fan of his work, I may give this a go but it'll depend on reviews.

Probably because Google give you free stuff, Apple rip you off

It's supposed to be a first look, not really a full trailer per se.
Given those making it I think it'll be a good film, whether or not it needed to be made is another matter entirely.

The Apple Fu is strong in this one.

This one is better...
Google give you stuff in exchange for your looking at endless adverts. You're naive if you think Google are giving you anything out of the goodness of their hearts.

Why do we need films about people who are successful. Books yes, but films no.
Social Network never appealed to me and neither does this. Surely will be a Bill Gates one soon enough.
Autobiographies are good. A media where you can really follow their life story. Trying to pack someones life into 2 hours, if it's even worth it, is just pointless.

Social Network is about why he's successful in spite of his glaring social failings. That is quite interesting. Steve Jobs I'm not so convinced about.
