Poster for "Jobs" biopic revealed with nod to iPod adverts, Psychedelia

The poster for the upcoming Steve Jobs biopic starring Aston Kutcher has made an appearance. Aside from an uncanny resemblance to the real Steve Jobs in his later years. The determined stare, the John Lennon specs and the circa 1997 beard are all remarkably bang on. The poster's art treatment recalls some of the iconic iPod print ads (as well as some of the lively colours of the upcoming iOS 7). The film's tagline says "some see what's possible. others change what's possible." Then, a nod to LSD and psychedelic drug use, "Turn on your mind. August 16." Personally, just the image and the title would have sufficed, but whatever. I'm intrigued and I am going to see it. I hope it's good and doesn't suck.
