As Wall Street continues to capture headlines due to market volatility, 20th Century Fox is moving forward with a "Wall Street" sequel.

Allan Loeb ("21") has been tapped to pen the screenplay, which is being fast-tracked by the studio as a Michael Douglas starrer, though the actor is not formally attached.

The modern-day story will again center on Gordon Gekko, who has recently been sprung from prison and re-emerges into a much more tumultuous financial world than the one he once lorded over. The Bud Fox character, played by Charlie Sheen in the original, will not appear in the latest incarnation.

No Douglas, No Stone, No Wall (Bailout) Street.

The script better be up-to-date, or it will be laughed off the screen.

Oh no. The latest sequels have been terrible. They should've kept Raiders of the Lost Ark, lost.

Is it called Welfare Street? You know. With all the bailout cash stolen from American citizens

It is my goal to get in touch with someone from the Obama campaign and share with them my desire to be a part of his inauguration by reciting a poem I wrote called "We Must Change," and I kindly ask for your help in doing so.
Go to youtube and do a search for "thinkverybig" and watch all of those videos. The one called "We Must Change" would be fitting to recite at Obama's Inauguration

That isn't a cellphone. It's a wireless landline phone that receives radio signals from the antenna of its phone socket. The signal dwindles the farther one is from the latter.
