I still find it astounding that there’s a movie based on Reddit, that it has a great cast (those three plus Pete Davidson, Vincent D’Onofrio, America Ferrera, Sebastian Stan, and Shailene Woodley) and that it’s actually a good film.

How do we make this happen again? How can we drive wrath from the rich into the pockets of the average joe using our collective will power?
Offerman looks slick in that suit
movie was super bland and disappointing IMO

I can’t stand Seth Rogen
Was a pretty decent film. Better than The Big Short I thought.

Hey, that’s Mr. Fabelman and the dude who shagged his wife.
Kinda over Seth Rogen these days, feel like he became kinda cringe these days and dude literally doesn’t even try when it come to his “voice acting” so it’s it’s pretty frustrating watching his performances now.
Seth and Nick lookin all Ozempic up there
This movie was so funny to watch after seeing the Folding Ideas video.
Film was so good.
Who cares. It’s a white wash
I have a friend who sunk $5000 into this debacle right as the stock started to fall. He thought he was so cool “fighting the man”. Anyway, he turned that $5000 into less than $1000 really quick and all I could do was shake my head.
Not even to hate on this movie. It can and never will be as tragically entertaining as the complete death spiral into an outright cult that was the real life story of GME. [Folding Ideas YouTube docu](https://youtu.be/5pYeoZaoWrA?si=pWa6ZBiK49XCro7n) is going to be a way better watch but to each their own.
I caught this film’s premiere at TIFF. It was certainly a crowd pleaser and Dano does a great job as always. However, I don’t think it will be breaking into many Top 10’s this year.
Seth’s stories in this segment are the best part
The whole wsb/superstonk fiasco was a market manipulation that I can’t believe they made a movie about. Large private equity (largely foreign) weaponized retail investors in a classic bull trap against other big funds and people thought they were “sticking it to the man”. So ridiculous and probably a financial active measure along the lines of crypto pump and dumps and NFTs.
Go lookup “bull trap” then look at the GME stock at a 5 year window. To really do the bull trap they controlled the float and locked up retail shares in DRS at ComputerShare so that they could see what retail investors were doing and front run it. For this to work they needed a stock that most investors wouldn’t invest in but was popular/nostalgic to new retail investors and start a whole scam around them going to crypto/NFTs. It was literally a cash machine for the other large funds that weaponized redditors/wsb/superstonk not only against the market but to take from retail investors and other hedge funds.
EDIT: the squad is here. Seriously GME one of the most classic bull traps in history now, will be used in all the books that the investors in it clearly don’t read.
The whole real life event was insane. I remember seeing trading being stopped all the time. It really showed how the system is rigged against the average person. The powers that be straight up refused to be hands off. There is no true free market.
Can’t decide who is more of an asshole, Kimmel or Rogan.
The sound and sound tracks were just awful in *Dumb Money*. I don’t understand how blaring Cardi B and Lizzo tracks at the maximum legal limit added to the story telling.
That movie sucked big donkey balls.
“Were any of you following the story as it was happening at the time?”
*all three look around awkwardly*
“No, we’re all already rich”
Damn I thought Dano was Breckin Meyer for a second. Such a bummer.
Someone on Reddit noted that the name Diamond Hands was so obvious and that they picked Dumb Money instead was foolish.
I have to agree, the whole phenomenon was driven by an icon.
Hands down the stupidest movie, who was asking for this?
Watched the movie TODAY!
Very nicely summarized what has happened so far. Curious about the sequel!
Why on Earth would I want to relive that stupid shit?
