Ya, that scene with Gekko and Fox was painful. Bordering on ridiculous. The dinner exchange was good. And Lebouf...meh. Crappy sequel, imo.

Who was that weird old timer who bird whistled suppose to be? Greenspan? Any ideas?
50% into it, the movie seemed good and had potential. But it was all downhill from there, with a silly, anticlimactic ending. Overall, not a good movie, quite disappointing.
The girl was terrible, a character that really did not need to be there. I guess Oliver wanted to play the daughter angle to show how the Gekko persona only cares about money. Not really necessary.
LeBouef was whatever. Many details were oversimplified, such as portraying the "evil" bank as one person.

Yeah, it stunk. I'd say 4/10. Douglas was good, Pendleton was a neat mad scientist and the old guy doing bird impressions was interesting as well. But some of the dialog, yikes. Like "He's a monkey dancing on a razor blade." WTF does that mean? And that dumb overlay phone call in the car?
Jail time for spreading rumors? Gecko supposedly does this really horrible thing to his daughter - but all he did was take back what was his. LaBeouf
has a right to be POed of course. Not the daughter. We're supposed to accept that she blames him for Rudy's death `cuz he was in jail? I wonder if originally she turned into a barking mad moonbat but they changed the story a bit.
Thanksgiving was at the TGregg Estate this year and there were requests for WS2, but I showed the original instead. Glad I did.
