I just picked up last year's NOFX album and was inspired to post this because the intro to the album was from this scene.

GlenGary GlenRoss, What a movie!

It takes brass balls to sell real estate.

Boiler Room is another awesome film but I still think Baldwin's speech takes the cake.

Me and a friend did a scene from GlenGary GlenRoss for a high school english class.

"Dont do it"
"sorry"
"why?"
"Because I have to"
"...my daughter..."
"F*** you."

Ah man, good memories.

I'd post something from the great Gordon Gekko but it would seem that there aren't any decent clips from Wall Street anywhere on the internet. The only one I could find is a segment of the Greed is Good speech at Teldar paper, and honestly that doesn't even begine to scratch the surface of all the great speech's he gives in that movie, Lunch is for wimps, money never sleeps and the whole end scenes when Bud screws him over are absolute gold. Guess WB has that isht on lock, all I can find are trailers for the new Wall Street movie coming out soon.

That's why you drove a Hyundai to the board and I drove a $4000 Daihatsu. That's my name!

I saw those, but didn't want to post them because the Greed is Good one isn't the full speech, the true pwnage is when he first gets the mike, and the I created nothing is just a sound bite so you don't get the full experience. The Lunch is for Wimps scene is freakin epic, but I can only find a parody of it.
