I don't understand how Ashton Kutcher keeps getting work. He is not a good actor.

As for Mila Kunis: http://www.mirror.co.uk/3am/celebrity-news/mila-kunis-without-make-up-looks-1760403

Amazing what makeup can do.

So who was playing Bill Gates in that movie? Did the movie have the bitch-slapping fight scene at Starbucks between Bill and Steve?

I personally am waiting for the movies about Linus Torvalds and Vladimir Putin. But I guess they have to die first.

I was reading user comments on a review page of the movie and most of that stuff is beyond idiotic but one post did bring up an interesting point, at least in my mind, that at the very least merits a little consideration. Before I mention it I want to stress that I have not seen the movie and I while I am aware of the history and of the man I am by no means capable of writing a book about either, so bare that in mind.

The point was, is it possible that the life of Steve Jobs might not be the most interesting thing to make a movie about? I'm not insinuating that a movie needs monsters and explosions to be good but it's not like this guy was T.E. Lawrence or something. Could the movie actually suffer from the fact that for better or worse, it's kind of a dull subject?

No, I think it could have been made into an interesting movie. I haven't seen it, mind you, but the reviews I've read of it make it look like it's pretty disappointing (and I really don't like Ashton Kutcher either). But I read the book, []iJobs[/i], and thought it was a damned good read. Think what you want about Jobs, love him or hate him, but the man's life was actually interesting. And whether you hate him or not (I'm kind of neutral about him and I'm no fan of Apple), he had a tremendous impact on the world and our use of technology today. A well-done movie would be damned interesting, IMO.

Cool, that's why I made the post, to learn this stuff. At least now we know the movie suffers from itself rather than it's subject matter.
