Funniest Scene in a Finance/Business Movie
Hey everyone!
After watching The Big Short this past holiday season, I stumbled across one of the funniest scenes I've seen in a movie, or at least a finance-related movie:
The actual scene is from 1:55-2:32.
This scene was actually in the book too so I was glad they were able to bring it to life on the big screen.
What are the funniest scenes you've seen from business/finance movies? There were at least a couple of other scenes in the Big Short that were pretty hilarious.
LMAO. This was literally the best scene of the movie. I was dying.
They cut it off about 10 seconds too short but fuck it. I'm not looking for a better one.
Great movie. Honestly I think of this movie when I see some of the bat-shit-crazy threads/Users on WSO.
It was real hush-hush.
I like the end of trading places too
Looking good, Billy Ray! Feeling good, Luis!
This is what really happened in 2008 at lehman.
I normally shut the hell up in movie theatres, but I burst out laughing when I saw this scene.
lol this movie was hilarious at times +1
25th hour (not a finance movie, but a finance scene): Trader: "You're wearing a striped shirt with a striped tie." Intern: "Yeah, I do it for the ladies." Trader: "Do the ladies ever tell you that you look like a f***ing optical illusion?"
Barbarian's at the Gate is sneakily hilarious.
Indeed.
"Do you smell that? Money?"! Loved the movie, just ordered the book! From what I am seeing, with Japan lowering the interest rate are we in for another liquidity trap? On Japan's side that is. I would love to go into more detail but I do not have much time.

From 1:00 onwards.
Not a finance movie but in Despicable Me when Gru visits The Bank of Evil, "Formally Lehman Brothers".

Not exactly a quote from a movie, but I've always laughed at how over the top the voice over is in this trailer.
Has to be something from Wolf of Wall Street. I read the books way beforehand and the movie still had me laughing in the theatre. Hell just pick a scene. It's probably funny.
"Im not fucking leaving!"
Exactly. I posted that scene on this thread earlier if you want to re-watch it.
The quant scene is probably my all time favorite movie scene.
