This is unfortunately true of any and every movie. They're all based on biased perceptions interpreted by the uber-prejudiced greed of screenwriters, directors, and producers. The similarity in appearance may be the only similarity presented. The sole purpose of this film will be to make money, not to provide viewers with any accurate insight on the real Steve Jobs.
The documentary was done half of it dedicated to Jobs... Pirates of Silicon Valley... it ends shortly after Jobs returned to Apple.
Dude. Sweet.
Kutcher has been playing Jobs all along on 2.5Dudes2.0, right down to the bare feet and the private plane. And much, much more if you can stand to watch.
The key word being "story":
1. a narrative, in prose or verse, designed to interest, amuse, or instruct
the hearer or reader; tale.
2. a fictitious tale, shorter and less elaborate than a novel.
I don't really care for him as an actor. I think his 'performance' in "Dude Where's My Car?" will always be what I remember when I think of him as an actor.
Either way I'm willing to give him a chance on this, his visual likeness to Jobs is hard to ignore and could help the film. However I'm happy he's not playing the role for Sony's picture, which I have high hopes for including Noah Wyle in.

Ditto
Well .. obviously twins from different mom .. and dad
But Ashton need to be thinned out a bit for the role, maybe 2 3 months diet would help. Ashton's jaw .. is just a bit too big. Maybe Steve's eyes is a bit bigger, but a good makeup artist can handle it. Other than that, they're perfectly twin.
He could just eat Apples.
I like him. I think this will be a great role for Ashton. I could be proven wrong, but I feel like he has a real opportunity for a break-out performance. He could use this role to really surprise people. Good luck, Ashton!
I have to admit, I'm sold on this. Sure, Kutcher has been in numerous dumbass roles, but he's a capable actor when the role calls for it, and if he really is putting everything into this, it could be very interesting to see. However, Jobs' career spanned decades, and if they're able to tie it all together into a feature length film remains to be seen.
One thing's for sure, though: even if Kutcher plays the part of his life, and the movie is compelling, some people here will still be unhappy.

Kutcher just isn't serious enough to play jobs, Jobs was an intense guy who didn't fear awkward silences, Kutcher'll try to fill those awkward silences with fart jokes.

Demetri Martin's just weird, and annoying as hell.

edward norton would be much better for this role and is and A list actor.. but they want kucther for the cool hip factor im guessing to bad
Of course Kutcher would say that about himself! Worst actor I've ever seen! Never watched 2 1/2 Men since he showed up! His best known for his acting as Demi Moore's husband...
Let's pick up some douchebag who can't act to play Steve Jobs because he resembles an old photo of him. I'm sure his experience in the extremely idiotic Two and a Half Men and the equally painful No String Attached will really lend to a faithful portrayal of Jobs.
Reminds me of the people who thought Johnny Depp should play the Riddler in the new Batman because his costume and appearance in Willy Wonka vaguely resembled the Riddler. No regard for whether or not Depp was right for the part, or that the character was good for the story. Let's just cast people purely on the basis that they looks like other people.

I think it could work out just fine. The opinion of the public pre-release isn't very interesting though. Wouldn't be the first time people said something would be ****, and turned out to be great. I don't get why people just have to be so negative instead of trying to see the possibilities (and also trying to check their own biases instead of posing opinion as truth).
