It was an absolutely perfect metaphor for the credit default swap!! This stuff is immensely complex stuff to understand, especially in a movie format. Despite being a BRILLIANT dark-comedy/drama…. The writers deserve Oscars for writing in such a way as to educate their audience MID STORY… and MID-LAUGH… it’s honestly a bit baffling how they managed to do that.

Would I buy a car from him, no 😂

It's why I somewhat respect Republicans and hate democrats, even though I wish all politicians death

@@bjornyesterday2562 - Nah that's true though. A person can KNOW that Republicans are monstrous, greedy, racists & fascists.... but the Democrats are worse, cuz they love to pretend like they aren't any of those things, but ARE.

I avoid putting my trust in EITHER party, cuz neither one gives 2 sh*ts about the average American. 😒🇺🇲🚫 I can't wait til it ALL comes crashing down.

@@KabbalahSherry I just like reading how some politicians will talk to local areas and claim credit for a bill that passed, but they had voted against it federally.

Read the book, trust me. It opened my eyes over what actually happened

Tranche is an interesting word I remember from this movie.

Good source material always helps. And this one is helped by a lot of it being actual events.

That's because Kendall Roy is there, his stuff is banger all the time.

How can every line in a script sound this way? It’s simple….go have lunch with a wall street broker every day for a week. As someone else in the comments posted. We’ve a good source of material here in the good old USA.

@@n74jw How are you verified?

I think it's the expression he was making when he got caught off guard, he opened his eyes wider and then when he turned around in his chair and face the camera he was more relaxed.

It's on purpose to help dissociate the audience. He turns and talks directly to the audience as a narrator and leaves the scene, and a hairstyle change helps express that shift.

But it was Burry who found it first sooo, burry is dora the explorer.

Had me laughing a good min 🤣

Could you elaborate on it

In the wake if the savings and loan crisis of the 1980s and 1990s, P.J. O'Rourke had a piece in Rolling Stone explaining how the S&L's pumped up their balance sheets by swapping properties back and forth, increasing their paper value and then borrowing against those bogus inflated values when the collateral wasn't worth what had been borrowed. It turned what seemed to be an incomprehensible situation into a depressingly obvious scam. While Adam McKay is a complete hypocrite by virtue of the fact he fully supports all the liberal politicians who protected the banks from regulation (like Barney Frank and Chris Dodd) which allowed for the 2008 Crash in the wake of the Democrat takeover of Congress in 2006, he does a good job here explaining what a house of cards and literal casino our financial system is as in the sidebar scene with Selena Gomez.

@@Pro_Vaxxer Say you have a brother-in-law, Teddy. He drinks all the time AND he is a horrible driver. You and I both know he is gonna wreck his car going home. So, sitting in the bar one night, you say .... GUYS, Teddy bought himself a Camaro, I know he is gonna wreck it. Too much car for him and he drinks a lot.

@@Pro_Vaxxer he’s basically saying he can appreciate how they use celebrity appearances explaining the complex business parts in simple terms using something analogous like fish. He can also appreciate the breaking of the fourth wall. This is shown when the mathematician turns and talks to the camera. This is referred to as the breaking of the fourth wall. All and all, this movie had great methods and did a very good job explaining complex financial topics in a simple manner.

lol it was so random

Lol yea

Best come back for that line is always -“Why? You shop on the women’s department?” LOL

I would reply "are you gonna get one for your husband"

Its funny but hardly random

I mean the crisis was already unfolding there wasn't much they could have done to stop it at that point. All they could do was bet intelligently on the outcome

It's a good analogy though. Banks don't deal in solutions, they deal in stuff that makes them money, like stocks, options and insurance bonds.

Not just fire insurance, but offering a 50 to 1 bet that it burns down over the next couple of days.

well THAT's capitalism

well, because the analogy wouldn't make sense if he offered firemen, police or water... He's not offering to save the housing market, he can't, he's offering a way to profit from its collapse...

Man, if a dude with A COUPLE OF MILLIONS in a fund is getting called “loser” I’m worst than a loser 😂

​@@santrollencio3601 The asset managers and hedge funds are measuring their AUM in hundreds of millions (for small timers) or billions in larger funds.

I think he said "and a fund", i.e. a fund manager with a few million AUM, in today's (albeit admittedly not so much back then), market thats barely a drop in the bucket and such a small fund will go under within a few months in like 99% of cases. Also back then money was sooooo easy to come by, you really were a loser if you could only get a few sticks even as a start up fund. Remember even back then, if you had $10m AUM you likely didnt make more than $200k a year, which for finance guys in NYC is pretty bad.

It’s because he’s honest. He lays it right out what he wants and why, so while you may not like what he is doing, you can deal with him.

The key to being successful at this is not having bad intentions because if you admit what you're doing and you're doing it with ill intent people won't respect you. He's just trying to make money off other people's fuck ups which isn't evil so they like his transparency

i dont respect people who have no self interest. They are liars, hypocrites or mentally ill. The more transparent about what you want you are, the more trust i can put in you. If you go "i do it for the children" you are a psychopath that aims for WW3 as far as i know.

Nope. It's just plain in your-face mocking. It doesn't matter if his shirt is girly or not....everyone will see it like that because the joke it's too good not to take like that.

i love how he has no problem straight up roasting vinny without hesitation while he's the one trying to make a sales pitch to them

Best part is, Vinny doesn't shake.

SandraSaysStuff He actually was picked by Ryan Gosling to play a little part in the film because he was a background actor.

I know right? Every time I've watched that scene I've noticed how smoothly he plays it. I couldn't do it even after practicing.

No, MANI.

the way he looks away and swallows all sad after jared is like "shut your fuckin' mouth." is wonderful.

Also the tiny little zoom in to him when he says "Opportunity" is great. Very subtle.

Gosling knocks it out of the park with the Vennett character.

Mark is a nice counterbalance with Jared too. "Im jacked to the tits! Can you fell it?" "No."

Let's see how much gum Vinny can chew while we see how jacked to the TITS Jared can get.

Plus Chris for Jared to have to constantly berate.

get the fuck out of here

Yeah right? Sharp fucking deliveries - with all the nuances.

His has mannerism of a true salesman.

At least he is being honest :)

He really did BECOME the man he was playing. Down to even the minor verbal ticks. My other favorite moment of his besides this scene is near the end, in the bathroom when he shouts, "I'm jacked... I'm jacked TO THE TITS!" Apparently, the line was just, "I'm so jacked!" But when he forgot to say the "so" part, instead of redoing the whole take, he just ad-libbed that "TO THE TITS" part and one of the film's funniest lines was born.

@@CERTAIND00M lovely trivia, right there. Also love his depiction of his morning routine🤣 him and Carrell have great chemistry.

But this is obviously what the people want! They vote for this sh*t every time; they buy into every war, they back the ruling establishment at every turn, they empower their oppressors, they buy the corporate media narrative on every issue, and then, whenever the inevitable results of their apathy become apparent, they play dumb and whine about how the “working folk” are getting screwed.

He made the Chinese guy rebuild it quickly and silently with his tiny Asian fingers

They obviously fucked with the continuity of the scene because the director wanted to go out on: “That’s America’s housing market.”

I saw a version of this scene in an "online version" of the film and some of the things happened in a different order. The tower collapses part way through and then he scoops it off the table into the bin at the end. The video here is the same as the dvd i have though so think it was cut together differently for the theater release

If that is true, we are run by nuts and crooks. No wonder financial crises come and go with a regularity that is shocking when you look at it. The whole incentive system should be very different.

Mok Mok okay okay doggos prest attention. Whos a guud boy? Anyway bonds are made up of mortgage that the average Americans pay. For a bank by selling a bond made of 1000 mortgages ment they made nasty amout of cash for selling this and for investors the people who buys these get a safe investment. Now some people don't pay and lose their houses when alot of people stop paying this means that they bond will fail. Now all these bonds have a grade assigned to them like school. We have A bonds that are the better and the tripple B's and Bs and that stufff the grading works like this :1. AAA 2.AA 3.A 4.BBB 5.BB 6.B

Mok Mok now since the bank were greedy as fuck they started giving motages like candy like if the average American were kids. Now since the banks run out of people who can actually pay their motages lets say for example a asian family that makes alot of money which thier mortgsge will be on those AAA Bonds they started to give Mortgages to strippers,homeless people,minimun wage workers buying 400k houses and those mortgages went to B or BBB bonds since they started to fail (because they're shit is like expecting for your dog to pay your debt)alot this bonds interest rate was going high because the higher the risk the higher is the interest rate. Once it reach for 8% that ment these people with those mortgages that they cannot pay they will not be able to refinance them so that means *ALOT* of those mortgages will fail all at the same time.Creating the house market bubble to burst and global recession like the apocalypse for the finance world .
