Mr_Jiminy Posted October 19, 2015 Posted October 19, 2015 No disrespect to SJ, the man had a plan and the rest is obviously history... But how many times can Hollywood create movies about his life?! Surely it would be better if they had another attempt at 'The Pirates of Silicon Valley' movie, pitting Apple again Microsoft. Monday rant over.
sted Posted October 19, 2015 Posted October 19, 2015 as long as enough people pay to see it. Same as the travesty that is the Michael bay transformers movies while ever they make money they will make them and remakes/sequels/reboots of films/franchises that dont need/want them
synaesthesia Posted October 19, 2015 Posted October 19, 2015 I love to fully give SJ the disrespect he deserves, but yes it would be nice if hollywood in general stops rebooting crap over and over again. Or even worse, rebooting good stuff and ruining people's memories. For instance, no disrespect to Harrison Ford but he came across as a bit doddery in Indy 4 - I dread to think what he's like in Star Wars nearly 10 years later...
Arreks Posted October 19, 2015 Posted October 19, 2015 I don't really like any films that portray dead people. They're dead, let 'em rest jeez.

mthomas08 Posted October 19, 2015 Posted October 19, 2015 as long as enough people pay to see it. Same as the travesty that is the Michael bay transformers movies Yep spot on. I loved the 1st film, hated the 2nd and enjoyed the 3rd. I won't bother mentioning the 4th..... As long as people spend money (although transformers is all about the merchandise too) I don't really want to watch a film based on Steve Jobs, Bill Gates or anyone who created these technology giants. Good thing is though, I can actually decide if I want to see it or not
LeMarchand Posted October 19, 2015 Posted October 19, 2015 Its better than peter freekin pan. What a useless film idea they always turnout to be. Peter pan sucks !! its makes for a shite film and its always on the ruddy TV. Have not seen a jobby film, but at least there wont ever be a sequel! I'm actually disappointed that "Pan" is only on during the day near us, so we'll have to wait to see it. As for no sequels - maybe not, but there have been two SJ films in as many years. Jobs (2013) Steve Jobs (2015) Thinking about it, the way some people think he was the messiah, I wouldn't rule out a sequel...

What surprised the most about them using Smells Like Teen Spirit to introduce the villian. Was epic though! https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BImwyyCm6j8
synaesthesia Posted October 19, 2015 Posted October 19, 2015 Only "Pan" movie I liked was Hook. BANGERANG!
LeMarchand Posted October 19, 2015 Posted October 19, 2015 Only "Pan" movie I liked was Hook. Not strictly "Pan", but "Finding Neverland" is well worth a look.
Arthur Posted October 19, 2015 Posted October 19, 2015 there have been two SJ films in as many years. Jobs (2013) Steve Jobs (2015) You missed one... Steve Jobs: The Man in the Machine (2015)
Grey-gear Posted October 19, 2015 Posted October 19, 2015 No disrespect to SJ, the man had a plan and the rest is obviously history... But how many times can Hollywood create movies about his life?! As many times as they see fit, a court order or until people stop caring.

But how many times can Hollywood create movies about his life?! Surely it would be better if they had another attempt at 'The Pirates of Silicon Valley' movie, pitting Apple again Microsoft. Monday rant over. Pirates of Silicon Valley is one of my favourite films. It would be nice to have someone throw a big budget at such an important subject (and from a historical view I think it is) as they become much more interesting once they introduce the rivelry and underhandedness of all of the companies at the time. It makes for a much more gripping story. Edited October 19, 2015 by Dos_Box

comrade Posted October 19, 2015 Posted October 19, 2015 The one I watched called JOBS (I think) was not that good, it was ok. This one new one looks better. They will keep on making films about him until he is forgotten.

I bet the cartoon PP is turning in his grave (lets pretend he did grow up)... Which leads me on to my idea for the next Hollywood blockbuster... Peter Pan Zombie Diaries, modeled on the footing as Bridget Jones, but with blood and guts.
Elison Posted October 27, 2015 Posted October 27, 2015 Peter Pan Zombie Diaries, modeled on the footing as Bridget Jones, but with blood and guts. This is just for the Helloween
rickjames Posted October 27, 2015 Posted October 27, 2015 I am nooooooooooooooooooooooooo surprised this film has tanked
Nixon77 Posted October 27, 2015 Posted October 27, 2015 I don't know why Apple don't just make a film about him, they have enough money to make it great. Im surprised the fanboys have not been out to save this newest one.
Arthur Posted November 10, 2015 Posted November 10, 2015 Steve Jobs movie is unceremoniously dumped out of theaters cinemas Aaron Sorkin and Danny Boyle’s Steve Jobs movie had another disastrous showing at the box office over the weekend. With earnings declining more than 69 percent from the previous weekend to just $823,000, the movie was dumped from 2,072 screens — more than any other film. To give you a sense of how big we’re talking, the original box office projections for the movie’s debut weekend were between $15 and $19 million. As it currently stands, the film has so far earned just $16,684,073 in its entire theatrical run — not only less than many thought it would make in three days, but barely more than the 2013 critical failure Jobs, starring Ashton Kutcher.
