didn't a Steve Jobs movie just come out?

coolbeans4028d ago

Yes, but I think everyone still trying to forget that one and the strange casting choice.

RetrospectRealm4028d ago

What? Kutcher KILLED it at the role. Had the looks and the attitude. Perfect choice. It was just a poorly written script.

coolbeans4028d ago (Edited 4028d ago )

^Eh...he sometimes came off looking more fitting for a Jesus role than anything else.

Edit: Can't speak for the acting.

Anthotis4028d ago

Bale was definitely the Steve Jobs we deserved, but not the one we needed right then.

Lord_Sloth4028d ago

He's certainly ass-hole enough to play Jobs.

StarWarsFan4028d ago

I can see him in the role quite nicely. I'm just not sure about the film consisting of three long scenes. That seems boring and a bit of a waste. A more detailed movie would be one of the best modern biopics.

"A more detailed movie would be one of the best modern biopics."

Go watch jOBS.

StarWarsFan4027d ago

Yeah, I have a faith that David Fincher and Aaron Sorkin would do a better job than jOBS.

Rockubot4028d ago (Edited 4028d ago )

I can hear Ashton Kutcher already saying lawsuit inbound for making another Steve Jobs movie. Also maybe Bale will fail at it.

MilkMan4028d ago

Fantastic choice. Fincher/Bale? These guys could be farting on film and id see it.
Start production already.

SouthClaw4028d ago

Noah Wyle to me was 100% perfect. If you haven't seen pirates of silicon valley you really should. It is a great film depicting the origins of Apple and Microsoft.

Ashton Kutcher was good and I actually enjoyed jOBS. The script seemed a bit more like "jobs is god" than a realistic film but it was enjoyable none the less.

I think Bale will be terrible. Just because he is white, has slightly long hair and a beard doesn't mean he will be a good choice to play Jobs. I can see it being an overacted piece of crap. The script will probably be good but poor acting.
