- Another Exploration in Widescreen conversion, in this scene Steve Jobs, Wozniak and the rest of Apple Computer Inc. unveil the Apple II to the world at a computer convention. In the crowd is Bill Gates and Paul Allen from a little known company called "Microsoft"
This movie was superior to all other Steve Jobs movies.
I feel it's the Goodfellas of the silicon valley sort of ..minus the energy though.. i really need to find it...
@@JeanAriaMouy yeah I downloaded it via torrents long time ago. I might have uploaded it on TH-cam many years ago and it might have got removed, thanks to copyright BS.
@beekarinsaan I agree. I remember seeing it on the shelves of blockbuster video back in the day and when I finally watched it, it didn't disappoint 👍🏾
Such a great movie. They try to make all these Steve Jobs movies and none of them do justice like Noah.
This movie > both steve jobs films
Yes, this seems to be the only one that focuses on the story and the tech instead of the pretensions crap the other big budget movies do.
Neither Steve Jobs nor Jobs are big budget movies, in fact apparently Jobs budget is actually lower than Pirates. Steve Jobs has the biggest budget but at 30 million isn't considered to be big budget. Not only that it's a movie entirely focused on story, it's a more polarising movie but I think it's a better movie. Pirates is a more fun movie and Jobs isn't very good at all.
@@CraigBickerstaff No offence but Jobs is good too.
To me, both this film and Jobs are amazing. I didn’t like Fassbender’s reinterpretation in Steve Jobs.
By a mile. And it screams out for a sequel
Such a great scene and the use of Iron Butterfly in the background really adds to the emotion of the characters. Noah conveys being totally startled when the doors open and the people stampede into the fair. The classic Iron Butterfly riff being played at a higher volume intensifies this feeling for the viewer. Bravo.
The music does not fit 1977. Iron Butterfly was pretty much forgotten and anything 1960s was out of vogue.
This is better than Jobs movie and Wyle is more convincing than Kutcher
Truth
@Guns N'Weezer The truth, right here.
I can be more convincing than Kutcher.
Crazy to think that this video was uploaded almost 10 years ago!! Great film
What's actually interesting is that this is one of the few things this great movie gets wrong.
Most people crowded towards the Commodore booth to see the PET. A lot of people did see and were excited about the Apple II, but it just wasn't as much as the movie makes it out to be.
haha :) Movies don't exist to tell the truth :p They exist to tell an entertaining version of the truth. :) Go watch Brave Heart and Kingdom of Heaven then look up the historical facts on how many people weren't ever in the same city at the same time or even old enough to be lovers. :p But the movies entertain and if they inspire people to look up the historical facts then good for them otherwise they mostly exist to entertain as much as possible. If you analyse multiple religious doctrines then you will see some factual events covered in rich stories that skew the reality of the events but still an entertaining story is told with some moral direction for any seeking guidance in life. A copy of a copy of a copy and reorganized and repackaged to give the best bang for your buck and you have a story based on life. :)
the commodore was HUGE ...it was incredibly affordable compared to the competition, and did very well...hard to believe they screwed it up.
Yeah this movie flubbed a lot of the facts. Still a great movie tho!
@@peterlohnes1 "Incredibly affordable"
Cries in TRS-80
@@willowthorns To Radio Shack's credit, the "Trash 80" outsold the Apple 2 by a far marging till the early 80's when both IBM and Commodore finally developed the computers that would actualy define an era.
I remember the early days of the first computers for home. It was an exciting time and I kind of miss those days since there was so much competition and it would be a while before the industry would settle on who the winners would be and the companies who are merely footnotes in history.
Bill walking there neglected by Steve, looking all confused, whilst knowing he's gonna become the richest man on earth.. there's something so eerie and awesome about it
This movie totally fckn nailed it
You just aren't a REAL Steve Jobs/Apple fan unless you have seen this movie, thats my opinion anyway. This and the Walter Isaacson book.
it's a great movie.
Done both, I write software for the Mac platforms.
Seen it, I own it.
The best movie about jobs.
Wozniak is the real hero!
wos does the tech/hardware stuff, jobs does the vision and promos
true
You need many components to make a great computer, right? ;)
@@danalyzedon’t try to explain common sense to them. Apple would never be Apple without Steve Jobs, no matter how people feel about him. Woz is also a key component.
I love the sense of humor in this film. Very good film! I'm glad to be born to see this.
Sometimes everything just works for some reason and several people climb their Everests all at once. This is a typical example of this. I find it impossible for anyone, no matter the money and personnel involved, to top this movie. It got all the crucial intricacies of the characters and the story right, without much effort and without any pretension.
The Apple Monitor II on top of those Apple II's were Introduced in 1984, This event took place on April 16, 1977. Every time I see this movie the seen stands out for me. ??
The In-A-Gadda-Da-Vida soundtrack is perfect! For a time this movie was available online for free, albeit very pixelated. Still, I could watch this movie endlessly!
He looks just like a young Steve Jobs.
noah wyle can still play him, he looks more like him than ashton kutcher. lol
Or Michael Fassbender
Noah says he would totally come back if they wanted to do a sequel. I think they should
Anyone but Fassbender really lol
People who lived through this, guys like Chris Espinoza (Employee # 8) have said that watching Noah Wylie talk & turn on screen was exactly like watching Steve Jobs back in the 70s, that they couldn't tell the difference between the two. They were struck by the identical looks & ways of walking, talking.
This movie shows how you far you can stretch the dollar while making a low budget film,this was better than both of jobs movies combined.
I could never get over how uncomfortable Steve's arm looked carrying the bag while wearing the suit...
Noah Wyle was a goddamn carbon copy here.
The days when being an engineer meant something.
Ok boomer
It still does just dont be a part of the system
No it didn't. Both Gates and Jobs were college drop outs. They showed the world that you didn't need a college degree to succeed in the new digital future.
@@seevee9057 And neither were engineers.
@@CarlMarxPunk Not in literal since but the foundation and knowledge required to construct a hardware platform and the runs on top of it, is in essence, the hallmark of engineering.
Right there at 2:35 is when the war between Apple and Microsoft started. Jobs blowing off Gates like that set the whole thing in motion. And my 30+ year career in computer software was given life (I got in in 1987, but the ground work was laid).
The movie is great in that it's not tainted by the idealization of Jobs as it was filmed way before his death, before iPhone, iPod and before Apple's bouncing back to glory in early 2000s. The characters were treated like the true pirates of the new industry that they were, going through its wild west stage with very vague rules and endless war of lawsuits. The movie will be 30 years old in five years. When I watched it for the first time over 20 years ago I knew who Bill Gates was but I had a very vague idea about who Jobs was.
I fckn love this scene
This movie needs more credit
Bill Gates just ain't got the swag.
I've been an engineer in Silicon Valley since the '70's, and have seen & been involved in more advanced technologies than most engineers dream of. Being in the right place at the right time made me lucky. I'ts been more of an adventure than a career! I'd advise anyone even moderately interested in science & engineering to dive in!
In this time frame, I read the computer trade press a lot. Companies would advertise products that didn't even exist. If they got enough orders, they would try to design/create the product. If not, they would return the money or pocket it and quietly slip away.
The definitive two-Steves Apple bio
please guys can we have complete movie online... its really insanely great
Woz was and will always be the true rain man. Steve never left him out to hang alone. Watch interviews with Woz. Just a super person.
1:34
Nice AVGN/James Rolfe cameo! what a nerd.
Wyle is the best Steve Jobs.
my favorite movie
"In-A-Gadda-Da-Vida" by Iron Butterfly
So many "Apple/Steve Jobs" fans haven't seen this movie. Sums up a lot things about individuals and people in general. Great movie.
am i the only who felt sorry for bill gates when he got ignored at 2:33 ?😭
Not really. I mean look at it this way. Bill Gates is the richest man in the world and ... Jobs is dead. WHO"S THE WINNER NOW!??
poppduder jobs was is and will be the winner
poppduder Do I need to remind you that nobody lives forever?
How is he better? Because of cool looks? Because that's what Apple is.
Jobs turned down chemo for holistic treatments. He may still be alive if he was a practical man.
I liked the yuppie Steve…Jobs on Time in the bow tie with the Mac was a great look
If this movie historically correct, then after looking at this scene I can sum it up like this:
Steve is the visionary, and a person for details, the outlook. He knows how to WOW people. (And making sure he stands out) See how at the last moment he went to get a shave and wear a suit. This made him look like a superstar in his stall and in the entire fair.
Also if you look at other stalls, and compare with Apple's you will see how cool the designs of the entire stall is so beautifully done.
Now let's come back to the present time. iPhone 6/6+ launch
Everyone knows the Galaxy is way better phone with tons of features, but still people stand in line for days just to get an iPhone, because it is COOL.
I am not an iFan, but I can honestly say, Steve Jobs was truly a magician.
Feature over kill doesn't compensate dude.
Maybe it has more features but a phone is now part of your fashion and an extension of your self. The iPhone is better looking, easier to use, has a nicer graphical interface and better quality materials. The Samsung is powerful and useful but the iPhone is a statement in itself.
Tamal Anwar The cool modern stand is an idea from Mike Markkula, not Jobs'.
But historically speaking, this scene is more accurate than the Kutcher's Jobs version. At least, here, they are making a demo of the Apple ][, rather than just saying that it's going to be a cool computer, with a computer standing on the stand without a monitor or anything.
And the iFans buy iPhone 6 because they had former versions of the iPhone, and all the apps they bought are only compatible with the iPhone. Plus they should learn a new way to use the phone if they were buying a Windows Phone or an Android phone...
my Galaxy is a piece of shit! :p and the one that came after burned the fuck up so yeah :p keep dreaming about how great your fucking Galaxy is.
Found the apple sheep.
And Apple is born in the public mind.
"Boom."
The Heathkit booth. I built a H89 back in the day. Also, a HW-101. 🤗
Apple gets a lot of credit for starting the personal computer revolution but what about Commodore and TRS 80? They were right in there too.
Exactly. There was a ton of stuff going on ... BBC Archemides was a beast back then !!! The Spectrum could not compete with C64 but did due to ingenious software developers.

They were licensing BASIC from MS just as Apple was
Rewriting history has always been a part of Apple's marketing.
I am waiting for the sequel for this film!!! from 1996-2011! Come on TNT let's do it!
I think its more like you arent an Apple enthusiast unless you have read Steve Jobs biography. Its so influencing and inspirational, i can even relate to his young self in many ways.
yeah that book is the most genuine version of the history of Apple, Steve didn't even try to interfere in it, more than just give his testimony, he gave all the freedom to the rest to help build this history from their own view points.
He didn't start wearing the turtle neck until I think 1998 or 1999.
The best scene !
So good
I can never forget the music
That creepy old woman who accidentally looks at the camera around 1:55. Yeeeee...!
It was 1:51, not 1:55 you moron. You gave us the wrong timestamp.
I love how some of the shots, Steve (Noah Wyle) looks like Mac (Justin Long from the Get A Mac ads)
he actually looks like Jobs
Great scene, but the monitor did not come onto the market until 1983(!). Quite a significant error IMHO.
Bah I was in the commodore booth
That's Melissa Mcbridge aka Carol from Walking Dead in the background.
I don’t remember the episode where gilfoyle worked with Steve Jobs
Steve Wozniak was like John Lennon in this movie.
Well, maybe in this film's adaptation of the physical appearance between the two, but personality wise, Lennon was more like Jobs or v.v. Both driven, tyrannical, and overbearing personas, basically DICKS of the highest order and I say that as an Apple Fan Boy and Beatle fan.
Allow me translate Jobs' words: "I want to be needed, not wanted."
in 1977 that apple would have been mindblowing
Imagine this moment steve jobs ended up talking to bill gates maybe it will ve diffrent world we live in
1 BIG problem: Why doesn't Bill Gates sound like Kermit the frog?
This was a pretty good movie. It's bullshit you have to pay to watch this movie now. It was a "made for TV" movie when it first aired.
+Strings410 That's because this movie is so much better than both Jobs movies that they know they have to charge for this now.
The bgm is cool in this scene
I miss computer fairs and conventions.
I think the last one in San Diego was in 2002.
I don't mind a little drama, so long at it doesn't affect the entire story, but I just want a biographical movie with some historical accuracy dammnit.
I'm reporting you the the county inspector
great scene
you are correct- he didn't start wearing the black turtle neck1 998. Theres a couple of picture with him wearing on in his early 20's. Great movie BTW!
this is product market fit
He started wearing them ever since 1995 after the launch of Pixar's Toy Story and when he was approach to be Chair man to Apple Computers
Only in SF would they spell it "faire". Even back then they were a bunch of flakes, fruits, and nuts
Looks like Steve got the last laugh.
Then he died :(
Did anyone else balls up thinking it was a deleted scene from Silicon Valley series?
Despite Gates and Jobs being fierce competitors they still remained good friends until Job's death. Personally I like Microsoft much better as an operating system despite the new renditions being geared toward touchscreens and being "stupid" proof. I think the newest version of windows is ugly as hell and is much more confusing than the past OS versions.
Technically Microsoft isn't an operating system. Windows is. Introducing Bash on Ubuntu on Windows isn't exactly in line with the stupid-proof comment. Also saying it's more confusing is contradictory to saying it's stupid-proof.
Yeah I use to be a big windows user, however linux seems to be the big thing in the future as it protects you from nothing and gives you freedom, while also not violating your privacy.
Im not a fan of Wozniacks portrail in this, but everyone else is spot on.
Can't watch this anywhere sadly.
The DVD is still available on Amazon.
@IngolfurArnar
But he got the loot. HE GOT THE LOOT!
Any other Ham Radio nerds notice the HeathKit booth next to them?
yea that was 2000s steve jobs RIP
What is in the aspect ratio is in the video scene?
No stock options?
You can precisely tell the moment he crushed Bill Gates soul.
If Henry Ford can get credit for inventing the car, than it's not to absurd to say Apple invented the GUI, sense they completely refined it, but I see your point.
Great movie, But unfortunately it downplays the role of Atari and Commodore and how big they were back in the 80's. But I found this to be the best movie about this. Also check out Viva Amiga about computers from this area!
is that Melissa McBride aka Carol from TWD behind Jobs?
She’s in the cast on IMDB so it probably is.
love it. & innagaddadavida
Probably not, maybe if it ever gets to Blu-ray disk but I can't see that happening.
he's wearing it since 85' at least
not wear it everyday though
Its been a while since I watched this
all hail the King
You can buy it at iTunes... few dollars. :)
they already did. it called the social network :D
yea when his health started to act up he put on the black
Gotta ease those vertical moves.
inna gada da vida + a bunch of computer nerds... please.
Spoiler Alert** Bill got the last laugh.
does the steve woz character look like the ferret guy from silicon valley????
Even though Microsoft won at the end of the movie, Apple came back and won in real life not long after.
Yes, by tax evading, keeping 285 billion u.s. dollars in UK, with no intention of bring it over so they don't pay taxes on it. I'm cool by not buying the overpriced shit everyone around me thinks is cool.
@@Zamolxes77 Those were nothing compared to what Microsoft did under Bill Gates, tax evasion is something that every company do. Nowadays Microsoft is a shadow of it's former self, but back in the 90s Gates did a lot of shady, evil monopolistic deals. Now he uses his philantropic foundation as tax shelter.
Didn't the movie say in the end that Apple was bailed out by Microsoft?
@@Zamolxes77 tax is theft
a REAL Steve Jobs` fan wouldn´t have to see this movie...
I don't understand the question. :p People watch movies to be entertained :) Not to find out what hollywoods version of real people and real events are. lol
