Wall Street is coming to get you. Not the actual Wall Street, they’ve already came and got you five times over, and there’s nothing left to be gotten. The movie. And by the looks of it, it’ll be bigger and Wall Streetier.
What’s that mean? More ridiculous. More Oliver Stone. More cocaine. More grandiose statements and political two by four, beating you over the head with visual metaphors that even slightly emotionally damaged monkeys could understand. That’s what it means. More Shia Labeouf, more Michael Douglas, MORE MORE MORE. That’s why they’re making a Wall Street Two. To show you how bad greed is. To show you how it’s not a path to emulate.
Anyway, the trailer to Wall Street Two was released today, and it’s banking on a number of things. One, that you cared enough about the first to get your underwear wet over a revival, and two, that you like weird, overbearing hints at a world where Shia LeBeouf is believable as a big-time day trader. In my opinion, Shia LeBeouf has been believable only as a vaguely drunk, Disney actor who made it big. But seriously, here’s the trailer, although there’s a number of questions you should ask yourself when watching it. Such as, is this real life? Is this going to be for forever? I hope the antagonist somehow turns out to be a version of the Geico Gecko.
Enjoy.
