Trailer: Steve Jobs


To be honest, I’m really only interesting in seeing Steve Jobs because it stars Michael Fassbender and it was directed by Danny Boyle.  I do, however, think it will be interesting to see Seth Rogen in a dramatic role and I’m also curious to see if Kate Winslet can overcome the fact that screenwriter Aaron Sorkin is incapable of writing strong female characters.

(And for those of you about to go, “What about C.J. on The West Wing!?,” don’t.  Just don’t.  First off, everyone always cites C.J. as a strong female character in a Sorkin-penned melodrama and it’s gotten just a little bit boring.  Secondly, I never watched The West Wing because I had and continue to have a life.)

Here’s the latest trailer for the very Oscar baitish Steve Jobs.

  1. Wait what? He even gets a movie made about him? Weak…

    I tend to think of Jobs as the man who realized pretty colors and cute commercial jingles could outsell performance and utility, ushering in a new era of really garbage operating systems, while providing a way out for billion dollar record labels to reconquer an increasingly independent music industry. Not a fan.
