    This book was a mind-blower and it really shook some sense into me. I really think it should be brought to the big screen.

    There are like three movies about Steve Jobs. (including the new one starring Fassbender, which I think totally sucked.) so I think there should be one made about BlackBerry, they could do a script like 'The Big Short', 'Wolf of Wall Street' or 'Boiler Room' ,that describes rise and falls in a rather sarcastic tone.

    And maybe in the end they could mention US: a bunch of stubborn BlackBerry fan boys who still believe one day BlackBerry will reclaim it's market.

    The ending is kind of a bummer.

    Sure, lots of scenes of Kevin M at the CrackBerry World Headquarters sitting in front of his computer and grabbing his head and going "NO!!!!!"

    There would also be some blood. A BlackBerry executive cut his finger on the private jet right before a big presentation.

    Unhappy Verizon executives would be dramatic: "We spent $100 million on Storm returns and you're going to pay us for that!" Balsillie: "We can't!"

    Otherwise, it's not exactly Steve Jobs and Steve Wozniak-type stuff.

    This is by far the best idea I've seen here on Crackberry so far. A movie like this would probably produce Academy awards.
