For Sidey’s Weekend Theme.

I read a rumour that Ashton Kutcher is to play Steve Jobs in a new biopic. 

Now that’s odd.

    I do wish these chaps would either grow a proper beard or shave: these two just look dirty! I’m grouchy this morning.

    I think that he would play young Jobs, when he had hair and was a “free spirit” wandering around in India and I think China. I don’t know how good it will be, I am over the Jobs worship, he left a legacy that is true, but it isn’t all bright and pretty.

      Ouch! What about his movies and Two and a Half Men and Punk’d?

      Not a fan, I take it?

      Actually, neither am I, but I seem to know an awful lot about him…creepy.

          Yes, tv and movies, but mostly for being married to Demi Moore, despite their age difference. And then dumping her.

            oh.

            Maybe I don’t read the right stuff. That has all completely passed me by.
            Last time I looked at a Hello magazine (or similar, it was at the hairdressers and I had forgotten my book) I didn’t recognise most people in there….

        I don’t watch either of those shows — although I have once or twice. Awful. His movies are okay, but nowhere near what I would call good. And he just reminds me too much of Robert Pattinson — not by looks, but because he always has one expression stapled on his face. I have to say, though, that his choices in shows and movies have been so dismal that, if this is a good movie, he may do far better than he has. No, not a fan. 😎

    It would make sense. Jobs was very handsome before he got sick and old. Looked a lot like Kutcher too. Dianne

    I can totally see why. The smile and nose look the same.
    Good choice.
    I’m a mac junkie so it’s fun to see that a movie is going to be made about Steve.
    When the phone support is lousy at mac, (I have apple care warranty), all I have to say is: “If Steve Jobs was still alive, I would not be getting such lousy service”, and boom, I get transferred to a great supervisor! 😉

I welcome your comments but be warned: I'm menopausal and as likely to snarl as smile. Wine or Maltesers are an acceptable bribe; or a compliment about my youthful looks and cheery disposition will do in a pinch.
