A news shocker for anyone excited about the other Steve Jobs movie—which should be good, because it’s written by Oscar-winning dynamo Aaron Sorkin, doesn’t star Ashton Kutcher, and isn’t called iJobs. The movie will only have three scenes.
According to The Daily Beast, Sorkin says his upcoming Jobs biopic—which doesn’t have an actor attached to the role, yet—will consist entirely of three half-hour segments, each of which depicts the events leading up to a major product launch during Jobs’ life. 9to5Mac says these will be the original Mac, NeXT, and iPod launches, which sound like brilliant choices to us. The movie will conclude with a single line, says Sorkin: “Here’s to the crazy ones.”

So no story then, just a rehash of old speeches? Sounds like Sorkin’s getting lazy.
At least Jobs understood making the customer happy; Google emailed me this evening telling me my Nexus 4 will ship within 3 weeks!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Despite 2 phonecalls confirming my order would be dispatched yesterday or today!!!!!!
3 BLOODY WEEKS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Spitting mad, Google customer services no help!!!!!!!!!!
arghh that’s not good
It wasn’t good the first time I read it. Now I’m getting really fucking pleased about it each time I read another rehash on another article, well done Google. Ha, ha, ha…
just need to vent
OK, now you’ve vented can you please shut up about it.
OMG, talk about first world problems, why should we care that you have to wait 3 whole weeks for a new toy.
Aye, it’s true though. Apple products might be made for numphties and bit too overpriced but their customer services is top notch but hold on, doesn’t iPhone5 also on the iWait list?
I don’t care if it’s all shot in one room. It can still be a very good movie. It’s all in the dialogue, and of course the acting.
Tell us Biddle, how many different scenes or locations would make a good movie?
iMovieThatWillBoreUsToDeath
Yeah, I think movies about tech companies are generally boring. They aren’t interesting stories. The Facebook movie was well made by a good director with various other good ingredients and still bored me to tears. They’re just not the geniuses that their fanboys tend to try and make out. They’re just dull businessmen with a few good ideas.
The Sunset Limited. Two actors, one room. Amazing film.
Doesn’t mean much, Death at a Funeral was all set in one day in one house at one funeral. Buried was set mostly in a box.

Scene doesn’t mean the same thing as segment, so the two words shouldn’t be used interchangeably as they have been in this post. A scene is defined as a part of the film where the action takes place in a single setting. A segment would be a part of the film where a particular aspect of the story is told. Thik of it as being like an episode of a TV show.
Invariably, much like an episode of a TV show, these three segments/sequences will be comprised of multiple scenes. Bearing all that in mind, the title and the content of this post are more than a little misleading and that’s before you even start on the debate about whether having three scenes would make it a bad film. Even if there were just three scenes in the finished film, the number of scenes would have literally no bearing on the quality of the film as long as those scenes were well written/directed/acted etc, etc.
