He's baaack...


The point is, ladies and gentleman, that greed, for lack of a better word, is good. Greed is right, greed works. Greed clarifies, cuts through, and captures the essence of the evolutionary spirit. Greed, in all of its forms; greed for life, for money, for love, knowledge has marked the upward surge of mankind.
Gordon Gekko (Michael Douglas)
Wall Street (1987)


Back in the 1980s, watching "Wall Street" was required viewing, and Gordon Gekko was the man. Working in the City of London back then, we all wanted to be Gordon Gekko, resplendent in braces and brick-sized mobile phones at the ready...
So I'm intrigued at the news that a sequel to "Wall Street" is in the works. Usually, I'm not a fan of sequels (and I'm also lukewarm about Shia LaBeouf's involvement), but for Wall Street 2, I'll make an exception.
