    I love that small moment from Hot Shots: Part Deux, where Charlie is on the boat, doing an interior monologue narration of the moment, when another boat passes by... this boat happens to feature Martin Sheen, reprising his role from Apocalypse Now.
    One of the finest moments in film history unfolded at this moment, and it was done with one line, being uttered by both Charlie and Martin... *I loved you in Wall Street*

    The Star Trek "Communicator" is exactly just that. A two band transmitting device. Not a phone of any kind. It's only function was to communicate back and forth via radio wave, much like a CB radio works. (that we know of. It is Star Trek, a fictional show.) It wasn't "Dial" a number to the person you wanted to talk to, it was an open band to anyone. They had to call them by name openly. Kirk could call out to Bones just as he could call out to the ships janitor... It's more of a CB than a phone. Even if it was the inspiration for Motorola's first flip phone.

    I thought Hanna was a good casting choice because the dark side of her character was so subtle. Very appropriate, I thought.

    Bro I love you and I know these videos aren't easy to make but make them longer. I love your videos but sometimes I feel like they are rushed and would love more corny jokes and personal opinions. Also please show us more of your posters.

    Interesting how you mention the original intent of the director to make the film about game shows. With that in mind, you should make a video about "Quiz Show" if you get a chance. Definitely one of the more underrated films that Robert Redford made.

    Wall Street is one of my favorite movies and I absolutely love the Gordon Gecco character. Michael Douglas did a great acting job and richly deserved the Best Actor Academy Award, although Oliver Stone had to give him a swift kick in the butt to improve his performance.

    Surely "Greed is good" defines the film, character and the 80s, not defies it?

    Great Video although I think ‘American Psycho’ is a better example of what the 80s were really like.
    ‘Carry on Emmanuel’ was to have a cell phone scene but it was cut, after the technology was restricted in the UK after the IRA used it to remote trigger a bomb

    The technology in this movie is a hoot (robot butler anyone?). But aside from that it has aged fantastically.

    Flight Of The Navigator is the fist film to use a cell phone. 1986 release and Dr. Faraday (Howard Hessman) uses one when going over to David's house.

    The other problem with the shuttle Challenger reference is that NASA is a government agency and not a public company.

    I'd say one of the best things (which there are many) about Wall Street is the Score! I just love it every great moment of the film is just nailed down with the score and sound track of the movie. I'd say that Wall Street if one of those films that just hits on every level!

  • @davidfrederick6003

    Also another fantastic line by Martin Sheen I think even better than Michael Douglas "Greed is Good".....Karl Fox "There came a Pharoah who did not know; the only difference between the Pyramids in Egypt and the Empire State building is the Egyptians didnt allow unions"......WOW!

  • @jimwinchester339

    James Bond & Captain Kirk (and for that matter, Dick Tracey, right?) were all mobile communications, but the James Bond radio-in-trunk phone, and all mobile phones of that era were actually land-based lefttover allocations of the marine/high-seas radio phone network - - it was NOT a cellular network.

    Everyone always thinks it’s “greed is good”. Which is sort of right, but technically it’s “Greed, for the lack of a better word, is good...”

    Lethal Weapon came out the same year. There’s a scene where Glover is pulled over and using a much larger mobile phone. It was like a cord phone attached to a car battery.

    Lethal Weapon came out on March 6, 1987 six months before Wall Street (came out on December 11, 1987). It’s just the mobile phone Gecko (played by Michael Douglas) uses, the DynaTAC 8000X was the first Mobile phone invented and the mobile phone that Danny Glover used in Lethal Weapon was the second mobile phone invented

    My father had that same motorola phone back then. When he worked in the military, he could be two stories down in a bunker and still get signal.
    Useless tidbit of information.
