    They don't need to make a remake of Wall Street. Oliver Stone is clearly out of ideas. Just go watch Boiler Room again, case closed.

    I have to admit I missed the boat on Wall Street the first time I saw it -- but wow, did that movie age like fine wine.

    @skahammer: A nice pairing if you can stomach the violence is American Psycho. Very different movie with the same overriding theme of excess in the 80's.

    (Loved the book, though.)

    Seriously, Shia? Is it because he can meet the hair gel quotient of the original?

    Jim Carrey should reprise his Andy Kaufman role playing one of the stooges. I'd see that. Maybe.

    If it was those three actors, but directed by Terry Gilliam, this would be an epic, dark, unsettlingly fascinating film. As it stands, it will be a giant sinkhole of talent and money.

    Oh, the biopics.


    They should have just adapted Elizabeth McCracken's Niagara Falls All Over Again.

    Does anyone remember the Marx Brothers-inspired comedy Brain Donors, starring John Turturro?


    No, of course not.

    This film sounds like a fool's errand. The Three Stooges came out of a particular time and its intersection of vaudeville and film.


    I'll only see this if Iggy Pop does a cameo.
