    If you want to get sick to your stomach go watch the movie.....

    The Big Short

    I knew I was going to feel ill if I went and saw it but I went anyway.

    You can feel the cattle prod sliding up your a s s further and further as the movie goes along.

    Looking forward to seeing it. I'd probably get a boner. I love trying to figure out what side of the market the bad guys are on, and making money off of it.

    I have that one on my radar, teaser. Thanks.

    The Big Short focuses on credit default swaps. I have no ill will toward the main characters in the movie who went contrarian on the housing market and gobbled up the CDS's.


    But SO many people should have gone to prison. Sad movie, man.

    been going on in some form or another since mankind evolved. best part is the average American doesn't understand the system and want to elect someone into presidency who would do it to them daily.

    In some countries they did that ie put the people responsible in prison and 3 years later those countries were thriving.

    Granted they didnt have a population of 320million but accountability was enforced and the countries prospered longterm as a result...

    unfortunately that won't happen here as the bankers are all in bed with the politicians. Looking forward to watching this.

    watched it today. Very good movie depicting the pure evil of the financial industry and government in the USA. Sadley, nothing has changed since the mortgage meltdown. No one went to jail. The taxpayer flipped the bill for these rich scumbags.

    good copy of the movie -----> http://viooz.ac/movies/28612-the-big-short-2015.html
