by Scott Weinberg | May 08, 2007
Blog Article | Discuss Article
Summary

No, that's not the title they'll be using, but it definitely looks like Michael Douglas and producer Edward R. Pressman are planning a sequel to Oliver Stone's "Wall Street." Back to Article

I don't see how Oliver Stone would allow anyone to tarnish any of his movies. Then again these days everyone's just trying to get paid! It's a sad greedy world we live in!

Michael Douglas specializes in playing rich assholes.

The Game
Wall Street
A Perfect Murder
Basic Instinct
War of the Roses

Ironically I liked him best when he played a nice loser in Wonderboys. But I wouldn't mind seeing more of the Gecko :)

normally I would be against this type of thing but now with so many cases of corporate wrong-doing and greedy wall street people the movie could work. Sure the 80's were better suited but this could be a good movie.

This is about as good of an idea as Basinct Instinct 2 or Hannibal.

More Basic Instinct 2, because even though Gekko is a great character who is going to see this? Wall Street is about two decades old and there isn't a demand for another Wall Street movie. Another shitty movie with an iconic character is The Color of Money.

Actually, I love this idea. After the 80's boon, Gecko getting out of prison and all. Could be a good flick.
