The latest trailer for the upcoming Steve Jobs biopic by Aaron Sorkin starring Michael Fassbender is here - and it's a lot more intense and insightful than the original teaser we got a few months back.

It starts off with Apple co-founder Steve Wozniak (played by Seth Rogen) asking Jobs what it is that he does.

"You're not an engineer. You're not a designer. You can't put a hammer to a nail. I built the circuit board, the graphical interface was stolen. So how come 10 times in a day I read: 'Steve Jobs is a genius'?" 

This is obviously not a film that only glorifies Jobs and shows him as a demigod: the trailer shows him denying his eldest daughter and really just treating people like shit. We all know the shitty stories about Jobs (or at least a lot of us do), so it will be interesting to see them get the Sorkin treatment (seriously, that man can amplify human flaws like few screenwriters can).

Anyway, enough babbling. Check it out:
