Michael Fassbender puts on a turtle neck and becomes Steve Jobs. Seth Rogen looks downtrodden and used, he’s Steve Wozniak. Jeff Daniels is there. Oh yeah, Aaron Sorkin wrote this thing. He turned Daniels into Don Quixote on The Newsroom. Now he’s turning Fassbender into a man, for all the public desecration, who is now and forever (or as long as computers last) an icon. Steve Jobs, the movie about Jobs with the best chance at actually defining the man for future generations, is here.

The much publicized film is finally exiting its ringer of exiting directors and movie stars, landing Sorkin’s script in the hands of Danny Boyle (127 Hours, Slumdog Millionaire) and the titular role in Fassbender’s proven hands. Looks like he’s going for the voice too, following Daniel Day Lewis as Lincoln with a lot more material to play around with (there are no recordings of Lincoln’s voice).

Boyle is a master of scene framing and Sorkin is a master of scene setting. It’s been reported that Steve Jobs is actually just three long scenes, like The Avengers of Oscar-bait. If anyone can pull it off, it’s the endless windpipe attached to Sorkin’s lionizing brain. Thankfully, the quick trailer hints at hints of skepticism. Of course, Sorkin is only a skeptic as far as an optimism can understand it.

But, before the tale of this movie’s making fades into the tale of the movie itself, let’s not forget that American culture couldn’t wait for Jobs to die. Ashton Kutcher benefited the most, in a relative sort of way. His looks never landed him a job faster in his life, and that’s saying something. Jobs, of course, was a joke, but not in on the joke. If you want in on the joke, never look any further than iSteve.

But then, you could always look to Mike Judge and these fella’s for the best joke ongoing.
