Why is it that the first Wall Street was kino but the sequel

>>84529533
Sequel's great, fuck you

>>84529533
Because of Shia leboof

>>84529533
The first Wall Street was a very topical look at the dealers and brokers of the 80s
The sequel was years too late, had minimal connection with the original, and served no purpose other than as a nostaglia cash-in

Gordon Gecko is like Darth Vader, nobody wants a Darth Vader movie where he trains some dork and then betrays him later on.

this is an opinion that applies to many movies and is almost never accurate

>>84529852
that sounds pretty fucking cool actually. Would be a good R1 era story, and would be nice to have something to replace the retarded Force Unleashed crap

I watched the first one recently and couldn't understand why all the praise

>>84529565
It really wasn't, it was Oliver Stone trying to be hip with the youngsters. It's a shame because he's capable of making great movies.

1st was absolute kino. I place the sequel in the "Films nobody asked for" camp

>>84529565
Holy shit no lmao Completely awful Go hang yourself if this isn't bait

apart from these and trading places, what are some other movies about trading?

>You're a young successful investment banker and you pick this red mouse looking dyke as your wife
Almost as bad as Daisy in Great Gatsby

I thought the first sucked balls and the second was kind of good.

Glad you asked.
Boiler Room
Big Short
The Smartest Guys in the Room
Too Big to Fail
Margin Call (although I wouldn't recommend this one, Too Big To Fail is superior in every way)

Congratulations, you're a pleb

Because in 1987 Oliver Stone was an ambitious and talented director.

By 2010, he was a smug pseudointellectual with very little to contribute.

That's exactly what happens in force unleashed.
