Despite the fact that this Marvel film achieved a collection of more than 600 million dollars, the Apple co-founder did not like it at all.
We all know that Steve Jobs did not shy away from making different statements, an eccentric Apple executive who came to change the course of the company, and also changed the minds of many other executives who wanted to seek profitability and success in their companies.
Be that as it may, Steve Jobslike anyone else, he also had free time, and one of his hobbies was going to the movies with his family, and it seems that one movie Marvel in particular didn’t like it too much.
It may be a bit far, but the Iron Man franchise was perhaps one of the main catapults to bring Marvel to what it is today in the cinema, with the majority of blockbuster films.
Although the first film of Hombre de Hierro was quite successful and popular with the public, there were many people who didn’t like Iron Man 2 too much as an addition to the franchise.
And as part of the book The Ride of a Lifetime: Lessons Learned from 15 Years as CEO of the Walt Disney Company of Bob Igerwe discovered that Steve Jobs he didn’t like anything this second movie.
Bob Iger did not take badly the opinion of Steve Jobs
In an excerpt from the book that went viral at the time, Bob Iger claimed that “when Iron Man 2 came out, Steve took his son to see it and he called me the next day.”
And in that conversation they had, Steve Jobs literally said: “I took Reed to see Iron Man 2 last night, it sucked”. And at that time, Bob Iger, with signs of respect, accepted the criticism of Steve Jobs, who was also his friend.
However, Iron Man 2 was a box office success with more than 623 million dollars raised at the time, which is quite an important number.
