The filmmaker and his star have a message for all you whippersnappers who come up to Stone and tell him you went to work on the Street after being inspired by the 1987 flick. Same goes for the “well-lubricated businessmen” who approach Douglas while he’s eating dinner to say, “You’re the man.” And the message is this: piss off. You missed the point entirely, jackholes! You weren’t supposed to get a hard-on for Gecko. He is the villain. The bad guy. Think McFly, think! Now, because some of you couldn’t get that simple point through your thick heads, Stone has to make this movie again. To those of you hating on the sequel, you have no one to blame but yourselves. (In somewhat related news, there is hope for this thing, thanks to Jim Chanos, who suggested the script focus less “evil hedge fund managers” and more on the Dicks who ran the banking system.)

    No, Oliver Stone, you missed the point. Entirely. Dumbass.

    @3 how so, chief?

    Drunk businessmen and Harvard naifs are responsible for Shia LaBoeuf’s continued employment. Hasn’t Main Street suffered enough?

    when douglas says “well-lubricated businessmen” he means drunk, right?

    Fuck these dudes, Let’s talk about the real bad ass sequel coming out: Boondock Saints 2.

    @oliver
    If your audience sees him as the hero, and you didn’t mean to portray him that way, then, don’t blame them for your fuckup. Be a man. Take responsibility.
    Anti-hero, maybe. Gekko carried the action. That’s not the villain’s role.

    yeah, well that’s pussyness, cause the real deal is how many of us went out and sold rails in suburbia, cause we liked the basic vibe of tony montana

    He can go pound sand.
    The entire WS community should shun this massive pile of crap he is about to over-promote.
    I hope the movie has a horrible opening- and the theatre is filled with pricks wearing Che shirts.

    @12
    uhh, yeah. if you think about the amount of damage Wall Street has done versus the damage Chavez has done, there is no comparison. Who’s the asshole now?

    @13 i’m not stone fan, but you seem like a huge tool.

    @13 take it easy, this can’t be the first time one of your heroes stated publicly that you suck.

    It’s time that you got fitted for a helmet.

    I can’t wait to start the cult worship of the evil guy this time. Whoever and wahtever he is, I’ll want to be just like him.

    @Anal- matches the skirt! Becks and EB looked rough today.

  25. Posted by guest | September 8, 2009 at 11:31 AM

    err 14 needs a helmet, not 12.

    @NS: The trailer doesn’t look that good. I am praying for the best, but I fear the worst…

  27. Posted by guest | September 8, 2009 at 11:38 AM

    14, yeah, facilitating the financing of thousands of companies with trillions of dollars of capital has done a ton of harm to the quality of life of billions of people. idiot.

    you guys are going to love me in this. i guarantee it.

    What does all of this mean to Terrence Stamp?

  31. Posted by guest | September 8, 2009 at 11:56 AM

    @27 – was that a real response? Try again in English. If the movie’s good it’ll do just fine without a bunch of 25 yo Gekko wannabe meatbrains hoping the good old days of 2007 are coming back. Probably won’t be any good though. Not 14.

  32. Posted by guest | September 8, 2009 at 11:59 AM

    How does all of this affect me, though?

    I think the wrong sequel is being made here. Personally, I idolize Blake from Glengary Glen Ross; I hope a sequel gets green lit because I want more lines like “…you drove a Hyundai to get here tonight, I drove an eighty thousand dollar BMW. *That’s* my name.”
    His quotes were way more condescending and practical than anything that vajayjay mouth Gecko ever threw out there. Suck on that Stone and enjoy my cock bush in the process.

  35. Posted by guest | September 8, 2009 at 12:28 PM

    Maybe this movie will convince a bunch of people to stay out of finance….more money for us

    I was inspired to get into the industry because of Michael Moore.

    It’s natural to hate what you don’t understand

    I appreciated this.

    37, it’s even more natural to hate douchebags like #34. Makes sense why Stone would pick LaBeouf to play a trader.

    I am a hedge fund manager and would like to star in the upcoming film. What is too much leverage?

    How much is the Obama portfolio up?
