  • Wall Street #3 (2012), Bud buys CD's and brags about his 1/4 point annual net return after taxes!

  • so classic and the sequal was sooo lame

  • "Your on a roll kid, Enjoy it wall it last..........cause it never does....." Great line.

  • @stevekach and true....I'm in the real estate biz!

  • "why do you need to wreck this company?!!!" "Because it's wreckable!!! alright!!!"

    What a quote machine this movie is! When I was a broker - this movie was our bible lol.

  • Greed is good.

  • 1.07 bud fox never drives a car in wall street.

  • @albimazz yeah.. he did it. he father´s collapsed and he´s on the way to the hospital

  • This movie had such a great cast. So many future TV stars, Charlie Sheen, John McGinley, James Spader, Saul Rubinek.

  • and there's a blooper in the movie - an episode when Sheen character is talking to a guy - ("young Dr Cox from Scrubs") - he's saying that some stocks went up when the Challenger blew up, although it read 1985 in the beginning of the movie the Challenger catastrophe happened only in 1986, so "Dr Cox" is kinda future teller )))))

  • "Because it's wreckable, all right"

    best part ;)

  • Win win scenarios create greater prosperity in the long run if you master them. No need to create enemies needlessly because of greed. That bites you eventually. It's been awhile since I saw this movie but don't they imply he (or his broker) goes to jail at the end?

  • great good vs evil story.. this movie never gets old.. LOL

  • i love this film

  • I moved here from Canada in the late 70s. Made a lot of dough in the 90s and voop! it all goes back to where it came. Money was never created nor lost, just transferred. Now I stack cans at Safeway for a living.

  • Awesome. Looking forward to the sequel!

  • timeless

  • it's a 'zero-sum game' somebody wins somebody loses . . . . this is Gekko's perception which shows where his main flaw is

    fantastic movie - still gets me motivated no matter how many times I watch

  • couldn't agree more.

  • Gets you motivated to do what,

    Become an investigative sleuth?

  • What do you mean by "this is Gekko's perception which shows where his main flaw is"? Thanks.

  • Agreed. The "Zero-Sum-Game" speech is a classic misinterperetation of the Free Market--one which many political figures fall prey too. Apparently, Oliver Stone fell prey to it too.

    Still, Gekko has A LOT of words of wisdom--wisdom which inspired many an investor!

  • @RushLimborg i definitely agree

    GG's words of wisdom still resonant with power: Money never sleeps, Lunch is for wimps, I want people who are poor, smart and hungry ... You want a friend get a dog ... and of course: Greed is good !!!

  • Yep Rush, great lines. I could not agree more.

    Highlights Oliver Stone's incredible talent as a film maker and scriptwriter and how prescient he was when portraying the sharks in the troubled waters of Wall Street!

  • @disengagejam

    Actually, in a speculators market, it IS a zero sum game.

    (Actually, its a negative sum game due to commissions).

    Every time you make a buck speculating, someone loses a buck.

    No value is produced.

    I'm not making a moral judgment; it's just the way it is.

    Most speculators must fail for the few to be rich.

  • I'm not a huge fan of Charlie Sheen or Oliver Stone, but this movie was spectacular.

  • There's a difference between fair capitalism and capitalism at the expense of others.

  • True capitalism is about being at the expense of others and that manifests itself in all sorts of ways today. This film just magnifies that reality.

  • It's better than seeking political power is it not?

  • Love it.. this is why I move to USA

  • lol wrong time to move to the USA since it was Wall Street who fucked us.

  • Wall Street!

  • Farajatz, anyone who uses "the GAME" (in caps yet) as a euphemism for wall street isn't in the "GAME". But enjoy the fantasy.

  • Still holds up well from the 80's... except for hte giant cellphones and greenscreen terminals. ;)

  • Lmao

  • Fucken Loser, you're probably in a cubicle . . . no balls.

  • This is my favorite movie! This movie motivate me to get into the GAME! You have to be in the GAME to enjoy this movie. I watch it over and over and over!

  • The Game, you mean the movie where he finds out through dangerous experiences that he wasted his life chasing money instead of love?

  • GAME means Wall Street! I mean you have to be on Wall Street to really understand this movie.

  • I think you forget that Michael Douglas is playing the bad guy. Like in Falling Down, hes a recognizable archetype but of a person that is DE-structive.

  • Yeah he played Gordon Gekko. Gordon Gekko is my hero. I don't think Gordon Gekko was a bad guy. Do you think Carl Icahn is a bad guy? That's why I said you have to be in the GAME to understand that movie.

  • I read the wiki and I still don't know who Carl Icahn is. That is a hard question for me to answer because I never heard of him.

    How about this, just remember that you have to look at your self in the mirror at the end of the day and you have to carry your decisions with you.

  • I bet you make a lot of money shining shoes on Wall Street.

  • Lunch is for wimps!

  • if you need a friend get a dog

  • Is Wall Street 2 official?

  • i think so, with shia laboeuf as the young gun.

  • Ughh... I don't like him

  • I know, he'll just bring the kiddish element to a movie which is really thought provoking and scarily true especially nowadays.

  • ah fuck that, i hate that idiot, i hated all the movies he was in. they are still in negotiations, i hope they don't pick him.

  • lol, sorry. the deal's been locked, he said it so himself on E!.

    p.s: i'm not even going to bother to watch transformers 2, no matter what everyone else says.

  • You post that comment on every sequel.

  • Starring Bernie Madoff and Nigel Savage.

  • Great movie. The second one will probably be average. YOU CAN NEVER GO BACK.

  • Wall Street 2 in 2010 Baby !

    I Cannot Wait !

  • theyve made it look like a new movie

  • unfortunately very true.

  • It's all about bucks kid. The rest is conversation! Classic!

  • Bud Fox:I just bagged the Elephant!!!

    Marv:Gekko

  • This trailer is decent, but I think the original from '87 with the Vivaldi music is better.

  • Excellent, and Original!

  • Excuse me. What is your point?

    Thanks

  • Eh?

  • Check out another video- Stewie from Family Guy meets Michael Douglas from Wall Street. Greed, domination, diapers...it's great.

    Caroon, M80
