forbes.com:

LONDON -- He was the stony-faced psychotic killer in No Country for Old Men, wielding a cattle gun as he took out his victims one by one. So it was only natural that the producers of Oliver Stone's sequel to the seminal 1980s movie Wall Street asked Spanish actor Javier Bardem to play a hedge fund manage

And yet, the crime and the rapacious pillaging does not stop; doesn't even slow down.

Take back the trillions of $$$ given to the banks, who just sit on it and make it totally ineffective then start government incentive to create realistic industries that give employment and generate real productive income, some of which would hopefully be from exports.

Every other country, especially China and most of Europe have goverment incentives to protect it's industries. No matter what you call it it's a form of protectionism and its inevitable. We should stop being naive and take care of our own house. The only ones who win if we don't are the multinational corporations who don't care where they get their hand out.

when i was young i remember seeing "wall street" for the first time. of course it involved millions of dollars and ruined lives in the theme, but all i remember was charlie sheen had to kick out a girl first thing in the morning. the rest of the movie was lost on me. but today i can see very well why javier would by-pass a movie that is probably going to show the hurt and ruin of many , many people. also the destruction of monetary systems world wide. did you know that wall street has ruined all your lives yet?

Do HP's editors/monitors ever proof read HP's headlines or do they do double duty by writing HP's headlines too? Is it possible that Roll should read Role? I didn't think so either but there are typos in almost every one of my comments HP posts.

Unfortunately many young brokers saw GG as a role model. OOPS roll model!

He turned down a roll? Perhaps someone should have offered him a bagel.

[oakley9]

LOL!

[TParrish]

Now that he has turned down a roll, perhaps he'll take a job as a coppy eddittor. HuffPost seems to need one.

A few months back the headlines on a Pittsburgh story referred to it happening in Philly!!

Javier, Javier, Javier, oh my.

[ranchero42]

So now it's a wide-open casting call? I've been doing some role playing lately. Pretty sure I've got the unemployed crank with a computer thing DOWN, baby.

[littlepuffycloud]

Did he roll into his agent's office to turn down the role or what? Hey HP, are the interns running the asylum?

[oakley9]

They must be with all of T and A turning up on this site.

We need to stop the corruption by Goldman, bank of Amerika, and Jp Morgan. Stop the Geithner and bernanke. . Obama's policies may not be working as well as many had hoped:

1st 100 days - There are 2.9 million more people unemployed in May than there were unemployed in January. The unemployment rate went from 7.6% to 9.4%.
Since May 2008, we have lost 5.5 million jobs.
The biggest losers were: Manufacturing 1.5 million lost Finance
& Prof Serv 1.5 million lost
Construction 1.1 million lost
Retail & Leisure 1.3 million lost
