Wall Street part deux

Ive seen the first one 1000 times. Incredible story that gets better every time.

BUt I just cant watch that little transformer punk in it. What a mistake. That kid has no business following in Bud Fox's footsteps.

Get well Charlie were all behind you.

Meh, I loved the original in spite of the then young Mr. Sheen (who I dig in his his other stuff). He was the weak link in the original IMO.

are u kidding me? Charlie had the blow and hookers down form birth, no method acting required.

the stars aligned when they casted him as bud fox.

Maybe that was it. Not a stretch for the dude acting wise.

I don't know, he just didn't work for me in that role. Michael Douglas was so strong as the Milken character, maybe he just pushed Sheen off the screen sorta.

Stone's a great director and im sure a an actor with the "caliber" of whats his name, could be good...either way, im going to see it

Ah, if we are talking about the worst casting effort made in the WS I, we need look no further than D. Hannah. Lifeless and man-ish baby. That said, it is one of my favorite movies. In fact "This Must be the Place" was my first dance at my wedding.

Also bummed about Shia L. in this one but will see it regardless to see if they can catch some of the magic from the first.

our entire trading team is going to see it as a "team building excersize".

the LBO meeting with Spader's law firm is the classic scene in that movie.

Agreed on Daryl Hannah...I watch WS 1 transfixed until the scenes with her in it. Then I gaze around the room and twiddle my thumbs until the next scene. I think WS II will be AWFUL but I will probably see it.

What the FUCK is with casting that Lapoof child-actor in it? He ruined an Indiana Jones movie and now he's supposedly running with the Wall Street crew? No fuckin' way.

Jesus, let's hope the dude takes his big paycheque and retires from acting. No more movies need cunting up.

Looks like some attempt for Stone to make up for all the little hedge fund managers he gave inspiration to with the original.

In other words, a great way to ruin th legacy. Allthough the motorcycle scene looks sweet.

I knew Rudy was going to be a smack head when he grew up.

Terrible movie..

I just watched Wall Street 1987 last night for the first time. Yes, I'm young.

Gotta say, there is something about that movie that really triggered something. It seems like a timeless story too. And the Talking Heads song is sweet. I also started to listen to them a few years ago, so it's weird to hear them in a movie from the 80's.

I compare the Transformers kid with Sheen, and it seems like comparing an 8th grader with a college grad...
