"Wolf of Wall Street" - new DiCaprio movie

Trailer just released for this new flick based on Jordan Belfort's life as a stockbroker in the '80s and '90s.

Movie looks interesting and hopefully is better than the LeBeouf Wall Street drivel that was put out recently. November 15th release date.

Warning! this trailer contains: midgets getting tossed at targets, chicks strapping cash to their bodies, and yachts.

 

It's a shame that this movie will be used to portray capitalism in a negative light. These people, it seems, would rather see everyone suffer in a communist/socialist society. People who see the movie will be subjugated to what is "fair".

I think he means a movie where a capitalist is both protagonist and a "good guy" pretty much can't get made. There are almost no movies where there is a positive businessman role model -- all are either the villains or if they're a protagonist they're criminals (eg, mob movies where they run "business empires" but are criminals).

And they wonder why we go bad?

What makes him a "capitalist" exactly? The fact that he is rich? What makes a mobster a "capitalist"?

Dolore ipsam molestiae ipsum id excepturi rerum. Fuga rerum vero iusto quibusdam distinctio. Deleniti iste ut perspiciatis. Voluptas iste ullam animi autem error.
