Wall Street - 20 years later


It's been 20 years since Oliver Stone's film Wall Street hit the movie theaters.

The classic quote/attitude from Gordon Gekko was:

The point is ladies and gentlemen 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 it's forms - greed for life, for money, knowledge - has marked the upward surge of mankind and greed - you mark my words - will not only save Teldar Paper but that other malfunctioning corporation called the USA.

This was of course said by Michael Douglas who played the part of Gordon Gecko.
And the sequel is called Money Never Sleeps which is due for release in 2009 I believe.
