1. I said he look like, not that he is. Having an impression doesn't make him autistic, nor a psychopath. 2. Reading social cues is different from a analysis of someone behaviour in a movie. I am not blind, yes? 3. It is a spectrum and everyone is somewhat unique. People with autism can struggle with different things in different proportions.
This is a fun movie. I love Bill Gates in this scene. Quietly observing the cracks in Jobs' facade. Like when he observes how miserable Jobs' coders are. And how the mention of IBM makes Jobs explode. He's playing chess, not checkers, and he's the real pirate. Fun stuff.
I remember watching this movie on VHS until the tape fried. Computers back in the 90s were considered "nerdy" so when a movie about computers--albeit a TV movie--came out, it was HUGE for us in HS who were really into the whole subculture.
Ok there is a reason why this movie is a thousand times better than Jobs and that is because this actor does something that Kutcher failed to do and that is really capturing Steve's state of mind. Think about it, Steve Jobs was both passionate and mad with power and only this actor successfully portrayed so smoothly whereas. When watching both movies you can tell, Kutcher was playing a role whereas this was becoming the role.
I thought kutchers performance was spot on especially after watching a lot of steve jobs interviews to compare, he even captured his mannerisms and expressions well.
Yeah, the thing I feel a lot of people tend to forget is that at one time Steve Jobs was a an arrogant, self centered a**hole. In his later life he even admitted to how out of control he got, even if he never completely broke himself of some of the habits.
Yes. When I first saw this movie, it unbelievable that both characters look alike of real people. It really shows that it is happening in front of us. Very nice movie
@@drstealyourgirl yes, on sheer resemblence, kutcher matched jobs more. but that's why his performance was way worse and dull and less interesting. this actor, by accentuating one overarching specific quality of steve jobs from those days - namely his cult leader style and aggression - did a better job of *representing* what jobs was *like* during that time. kutcher was just a carbon copy, nothing interesting. this actor's performance actually made a meaningful statement / claim and presented jobs in a interesting light

@@jhonshephard921 It has been confirmed that Bill Gates never took a day off in his life in his 20s. He worked every day of the week, for 10-12 hours daily, at a minimum.
@@gorillaman283 I can point you to about 10 people in my neighborhood who works without taking days offs at all, maintaining their own small businesses. And these people do it because they live *slightly* above the poverty line, which means that if they don't work all day they will have to shut down their businesses and get evicted out of their homes because they can't pay rent. And these people will *NEVER* be as successful as Jobs or Gates, fuck it, they will never even get up to 5% of what Jobs and Gates are, because they have to provide to their families somehow and never had a proper education past the high school...And they are in their late 50s already. Welcome to the world of social inequality, *where working your ass off 24/7 literally does NOT MEAN SHIT to how successful you will be in your career and your life.* Jobs and Gates were crazy outliers, not the rule of what happens when you just bust your ass off everyday of your life.
@@gorillaman283 the best saying ever. "just because you can do all these things and never sleep doesn't mean others can to" any creator who works and sacrifices his people to fill his own dream and desires can rot in fucking hell.
As others have said - although the screenplay has great inaccuracies in order to create more drama, the portrayal of the some of the characters is excellent. Not only that, but the set pieces really take you to this time and place. Totally recommended.
@@thirien59 Axccording to Steve Jobs himself (in Wikipedia for this film) he hated the screenplay but loved Noah Wyle's performance, who played him accurately according to everyone that knew Steve. Bill Gates also said his portrayal int eh film was largely accurate.
1:40 to the end......Gates looked more like Col. Hogan, circling his prey, Jobs as Col. Klink.......outsmarting, plotting, stalking, suggesting.....playing to Klink's enormous ego.
The thing is in real life, Bill Gates would often pull 72 hours straight at the office and would probably expect the same out of his software teams. So 90 hours/week might have been a reality during the Windows 1.0 push.
manco82 The difference is Gates was right there with them programming, leading the charge so to speak. Jobs had no clue of the stress and just yelled to get results. Causing them to grow to despise him.
God. Those two. Steve Jobs and Bill Gates. They drove each other. The area what transformed our world into what is today. Their competition with each other is what made the world that Gibson and Nealson wrote of. Without Jobs, or someone to take his place; where will we go? RIP Steve. We'll miss you.
HELLADJ The music for one thing. The smooth and slimy "Jim Jones" charismatic preacher persona of Jobs, which occasionally and suddenly blazes up in righteous indignation and just as quickly cools back down to serene confidence. There there's Bill Gates, quietly prowling around, sly and fox-like, drinking in every detail from hardware to employee mood. After Steve shows off the crown jewels, demonstrating how invulnerable he and Apple are, Bill quietly walks up to Steve and suddenly proclaims "You're VULNERABLE!...in spreadsheets you know Steve" One hell of a great scene.
smooth, slimy, charismatic preacher persona, sly and fox like, demonstrating invulnerable, just admit it you have a high IQ and you live in your parent's basement.
+Peter David haha, Peter I've got no grudge against you. Creativity produces such mean things. I was reading your comment and started thinking a rap would be cool, but I only half finished it.
Yup, he hasn't changed either. But all the morons believe he's suddenly a saint now because the throws stolen money at some decent causes to buy worship and influence.
Gates was pretty foul mouthed and ruthless himself. Plus he new the limitations of coding. You also had to understand the hardware the coding was trying to operate.
The first rule of Apple is: You do not talk about IBM: The second rule of Apple is: YOU DO NO TALK ABOUT IBM. Third and final rule: If this is your first day at Apple; you have to be up for 52 hours straight.
1:49 That look just kills me. It's so subtle, but the drama of the scene makes it like 1000x more noticeable than it ought to be. It's so ridiculous, HAHA!
that line "don't torture our guests with something they can't have" that's what a ruler/thief would say right before another steals it. that was your own mistake steve
We watched this movie as part of my class in middle school and after each part we watched had to write an essay about what we learned as homework..that was the best part of private school..you do learn more for the money
I feel sorry for those that didn't get to experience the early days of computing back in the 70's & 80's. Nothing will compare to the excitement... except perhaps the birth of the web in the 90's. Good times
I’m sure there was stuff going on in the 80s when both were hitting the market. That’s called competition. Microsoft has the most compatible OS and Apple has OSX in a sexy design. They really build their products well on the outside.
I was using a mouse and graphical user interface as a kid in 1976 at Xerox PARC, about 7 years before the events of this scene. Xerox Star was released two years before this scene with these features - the technology was well known by this time (just expensive and not made for the consumer market).
i hear about bill being the programmar and steve being the sales guy. you know Bill is a badass programmar and a badass sales guy. he fucking sold steve for fuck sake!
This movie shows the reality quite well. Too well I'd wager because the narcissistic Steve Jobs was apparently insulted by Noahs portrayal of him in this movie and then went on to publicly embarrass Noah on one of the Mac conventions.
Been what nearly,a qtr century going back to the 20th Century and this lower budget TV movie is the one everybody raves about. I think both Actors Anthony Michael Hall and Noah Wylie nailed their characters or at least the essence of them.. Here we see Steve Jobs the “ Artiste “ counter culture influenced posterity minded character at work and Bill the business predator who feigns the “ anti establishment Woodstock ,Age of Aquarius “ in front of Jobs but is in reality old school robber baron. . Jobs is unable to see the treachery and eventually let’s the shapeshifting fox into the henhouse
Love the history, doesn't matter who stole what. Its the end result that matters. Apple and Microsoft created the next golden age of technology. Without them we would probably still be using DOS. I use both , my pc for all home stuff and my iPad for on the go, its a great combo.
Not really. They are each their own brand of ruthless in the movie, but not evil. Steve is a frightening bi-polar egomaniac and Bill is a deceitful backstabber, but that's just a part of their characters. They get pretty human portrayals all around. This scene seems as 'evil' as it does mainly because Jobs is putting on an intentionally intimidating show for Gates, who is in the process of figuring Jobs out.
Nah ... these dudes would never steal or cheat ... right? Right? Right? These guys are saints ... and 100% perfectly 100% totally honest. They would never steal from or cheat anyone on this planet earth ... EVER! Bet your career ... on that ...
This is interesting storytelling of how Apple and Microsoft came to be. this movie got many critical response, many people commented they loved it, this was a good film
well, it is a dramatization, the point is that these people were still ruthless cutthroats, like any other rags to riches business man in history, despite being nerds
Perhaps I am imagining this, but I believe that TNT inadvertently aired this well before they intended to do so in 1999. I vividly recall seeing it in the wee hours in the morning months before it “officially “ aired on TNT,. Anyone else recall this?
It implies nothing. This scene was based on a real event as was much of the movie. To read about this particular scene, visit folkloreDOTorg and read the section titled "Shut Up" by Andy Hertzfeld. Hertzfeld explains how Gates assumed the Mac had special hardware to draw small bitmaps called "sprites", as did many early computers (The Commodore 64 is a good example)
No this movie was actually made when apple was having its resurgence with the e-Mac. I suppose the story should've end with both men in their peaks. At the time Jobs died he was very successful and Gates was retired and doing charity, happily stepping down from being the richest man on earth. But the Apple Microsoft story has not finished yet. Apple shares has been declining steadily, except for the occasional announcement. Will both companies disappear in the future or even merge, who knows?
I can't believe that is Anthony Michael Hall...without his crazier blonde hair or usual accthent...and with added glasses, all of these subtle transformations gives him a major remake of himself!
Gates actually said that he thought this actor portrayed him very well.
So did Jobs
That's scary considering he seems like a total psychopath 😂
Psychopaths are more like Steve Jobs than Bill Gates. Bill in this movie looks far more autistic. I know because I am too.

They made Bill Gates come in with that music like an OP anime villian
ye
Shirohige lol
I took the background music as being the ambient soundtrack that is heard when the Steve Jobs RDF is active.
Well I mean in the intro he is pratically looking down on him.
i thought this music was because of steve who made his employees work 90 hrs

really
IT really shows how Steve Jobs got destroyed by his own arrogance.

Cameron Goddard Sorry, maybe a little extaggeration, but Apple computers sold minimally compared to microsoft for a period of 20-30 years, after this.
Kristian Nygaard True, but that was after he left Apple

This is interesting storytelling of how Apple and Microsoft came to be. this movie got many critical response, many people commented they loved it, this was a good film
Bill Gates had next to nothing to do with Windows 8. As the CEO of Microsoft Steve Ballmer would be far more directly responsible for it.
This movie is borderline ridiculous. They made Bill Gates look like a villain from an Austin Powers movie.
