Considering the decent likelihood that you're reading this on an Apple product, you should be interested to learn that the Ashton Kutcher–starring Steve Jobs biopic, jOBS, is set for an April 19 release. With that news comes the first preview of the film. In this clip, Jobs yells at Steve Wozniak (Josh Gad) for not realizing that everybody everywhere is going to want to own a computer. Yeah, Woz, trust Jobs — just look at how much cooler his hair is than yours. 

 The first scene from iJOBS—the biopic on Steve Jobs starring Ashton Kutcher—may be pretty decent, but it never happened. Not even close, according to Steve Wozniak, who says they "never had such interaction and roles." 
 
 Woz had this to say in a Gizmodo comment: 
 
 Not close...we never had such interaction and roles...I'm not even sure what it's getting at...personalities are very wrong although mine is closer...don't forget that my purpose was inspired by the values of the Homebrew Computer Club along with ideas of the value of such machines and Steve J. wasn't around and didn't attend the club so he was the one learning about such social impact of the future. 
 
 So, in fact, it was precisely the contrary. Woz knew the value of these machines, the democratization of technology. Steve learned about it later. 
 
 He also added this in an email: 
 
 Totally wrong. Personalities and where the ideas of computers affecting society did not come from Jobs. They inspired me and were widely spoken at the Homebrew Computer Club. Steve came back from Oregon and came to a club meeting and didn't start talking about this great social impact. His idea was to make a $20 PC board and sell it for $40 to help people at the club build the computer I'd given away. Steve came from selling surplus parts at HalTed he always saw a way to make a quick buck off my designs (this was the 5th time). The lofty talk came much further down the line. I never looked like a professional. We were both kids. Our relationship was so different than what was portrayed. I'm embarrassed but if the movie is fun and entertaining, all the better. Anyone who reads my book iWoz can get a clearer picture. 
 
 Steve is referring to his book, which explains how he Invented the personal computer, co-founded apple, and had fun doing it. 
 
 So while the movie may be good enough to watch (or not), it looks like it will be pretty inaccurate. I wonder about what other poppycock they will be pulling out of their asses. I don't think I would be able to enjoy it if these Hollywood hacks got the truly important stuff wrong. After all, is it there anything more important to the core history of Apple than the collaboration between the two Steves? I don't think there is. 
 
 Update 2: Steve had this to add, to those saying that this is "just a movie." 

 "How does somebody know what they want if they've never even seen it?" says Ashton Kutcher as Apple co-founder Steve Jobs in the first clip from "jOBS," the new film about Jobs' life and the creation of Apple. 
 
 The scene, released on Thursday, presents Kutcher's Jobs as a maverick, who forces Josh Gad's portly, brilliant and nervous Steve Wozniak to see the bigger picture on the duo's path to creating personal computers. Unfortunately for the "jOBS" filmmakers, the stirring moment didn't actually happen. 
 
 "We never had such interaction and roles," Wozniak told Gizmodo in an email. "I'm not even sure what it's getting at." 
 
 According to Wozniak, the "personalities are very wrong although mine is closer." 
 
 Not only does the scene misrepresent the interaction between Jobs and Wozniak, it also fudges their relationship. 
 
 "We were both kids. Our relationship was so different than what was portrayed. I'm embarrassed but if the movie is fun and entertaining, all the better. Anyone who reads my book iWoz can get a clearer picture." 
 
 "jOBS" will close the Sundance Film Festival, but it doesn't necessarily need to make a splash in Park City, Utah. The film already has a distribution deal in place: Open Road will release "jOBS" on April 19. 
 
 This is one of two Steve Jobs films in development; the other is being written by Aaron Sorkin, and will take place over the course of three key moments in Jobs' life. As The Los Angeles Times noted, the Sorkin feature will highlight Jobs' first Macintosh launch, his NeXT start-up debut and the announcement of the iPod.

– The first clip from the Steve Jobs movie jOBS came out this week, and one of the main players isn't too happy. Steve Wozniak complains to Gizmodo that the clip (with Ashton Kutcher as Jobs) isn't accurate. Here's a sample: In a comment on the website: "Not close...we never had such interaction and roles...I'm not even sure what it's getting at...personalities are very wrong although mine is closer..." In a later email: At the time of the scene, Jobs was more concerned about making a "quick buck" than having computers transform the world. The "lofty talk" came much later. Also: "I never looked like a professional. We were both kids. Our relationship was so different than what was portrayed. I'm embarrassed but if the movie is fun and entertaining, all the better. Anyone who reads my book iWoz can get a clearer picture." And another email: "It's only one clip. The movie should be very popular and I hope it's entertaining. It may be very correct, as well. This is only one clip. But you'll see the direction they are slanting the movie in, just by the dialog style of this script." A publicist for the movie tells Entertainment Weekly that it's "not a documentary, nor is it meant to be a blow by blow, word for word account." The film is out April 19. A second Jobs film, being written by Aaron Sorkin (The Social Network) also is in the works, notes the Huffington Post.
