Movie that inspired me to learn trading
Added 2/8/2010
Three things influenced my financial life in the 80's and lead me to trading.
1) The movie Trading Places
2) The movie Wallstreet
3) "How to make $1,000,000 in the Stock Market Automatically" by Robert Lichello
It is because of these 3 items that when I grew up, I traded; first stocks, then commodities, then options, then taught options trading; then traded Forex; then taught Forex.
This movie, is probably my all-time favorite movie. I believe this is an inspirational movie; and unlike the movies of today, this thing has it all; plot, good guys, bad guys, and no Ben Affleck.
If you've never seen this movie, you've never lived. Three Thumbs Up!

An 80s Classic
Added 2/6/2010
Eddie Murphy, Dan Aykroyd and Jamie Lee Curtis at their best. I love also that in Eddie's next movie 'Coming To America' they had the two rich old dudes in the movie. 80s classic. Giving the movie 4 out of 5 cuz I prefer it in full screen format and the original movie cover.

Blu Ray Looking Good Edition
Added 2/4/2010
This is one of my favorite movies ever! The transfer to Blu Ray was done very well, much better than on DVD. I recommed this to anyone that loves 80's comedies.

Trading Places
Added 1/19/2010
Louis Winthorpe III is a successful Philadelphia commodity broker with mansion, manservant and girlfriend to match. Billy Ray Valentine is a hustling beggar. Winthorpe's employers, the elderly Duke brothers, make a bet that by switching the lifestyle of the two Billy Ray will make good and their man will take to a life of crime. Suddenly Louis finds himself uncomprehendingly with no job, no home and only a new acquaintance, glamorous hooker Ophelia, prepared to help him. So at least in one way things could actually be worse. Dan Ackroyd and Eddie Murphy make a thoroughly wonderful team in this movie. A truly great hilarious comedy masterpiece and classic.
