That was probably the best and it was really funny movie. BTW what was the name of that movie?

Quote from rs7:

Ok, not a movie, and not truly about trading; but maybe somewhat relevant to this thread. Here is my "off the wall pick":

The Taxi episode where they all get fired and Louie (de Vito) becomes a stock broker.

Speaking of TV, I remember flipping through the channels a year or two ago and running across some tv series trying to capitalize on the popularity of daytrading. Only saw the last half of one episode, apparently the head trader was going through some kind of relationship problem and was about to leave the firm. Someone comes along with some motivating speech and he decides to stay. Blah, blah... then he turns around and starts yelling from the balcony to the floor "What are you guys doing just sitting there doing nothing! Trade, dammit, trade!" Everyone on the floor starts banging on their keyboards furiously... that was about as much as I could stand. :D

:cool:

i never watched the $treet, but i liked "Bull" on TNT...had a few nice looking women...

I loved Bull too. A few years ago, I was on a 12 hour flight on one of those new 777's with personal TV's in every seat. They had every Bull episode on demand. They also had mnay the $treet episodes. Damn, that was a good flight.
