Thanks, that's 30 bucks I won't waste going to the movies to see this trash.

BTW here is a link to the original speech "Greed is Good"

Greed is legal- one need to look at what the rat wingers on Capital Hill and ayatollah obama do with our money...

The greediest people on the face of the earth are those who are destroying our country for the purposes of getting power for themselves. Top among their names are Nancy Pelosi, Harry Reid, Chris Dodd, and Barney Frank, who are the criminals. Wall Street investment houses are simply accomplices.

How about the timing of the release of this movie?

Hey hollyweird, if your boys stay in power, no one will have any spare cash left to go see your propaganda flicks.

Gordon Gekko, the archetypal villain of iconic 1980s movie “Wall Street” has a new mantra: greed is not just good, it's legal and it's everywhere.

It is true that it is everywhere. "Greed" (meaning wanting to make money) isn't a bad thing. Greed only becomes a bad thing when you want to get money dishonestly or by hurting someone else. (You know, like how the Democrats do it.)

Greed is an emotion, not an action. When has an emotion ever been illegal ... well, maybe Obama wants to make it a thoughtcrime.

Interestingly enough, Democrats believe theft is legal, and it’s a higher moral calling to take from “those who have” and give to “those who have not”.

“Someone reminded me I once said, 'Greed is good,' now it seems it is legal,..."

To me that statement implies that regulation of the financial industry has, in recent years, been reduced. Why do I doubt that the number of laws affecting the financial industries has decreased over those years?

More subtle liberal propaganda.

Stone, a long-time critic of unbridled capitalism whose father was a stockbroker “

I figured Stone was a spoiled brat son of a well to do businessman. He has been arrested several times for DUI and cocaine in Los Angeles too.

I really liked the original Wall Street (even as I dislike Oliver Stone personally). Michael Douglas’ performance was a tour d’ force.

Has anyone seen the sequel? How does it compare to the original?

Greed is legal if your one of the chosen ones. If not a chosen one, or useful as an example that the government is doing its job, it’s still illegal. Ask Martha Stewart.
