Almost at the beginning of the movie. Seth owns/runs an illegal casino. Two of the “Boiler Room” employees stop in and that starts the movie...Damn I love that movie but I don’t even remember a poker scene. I need to rewatch this.
Ben Affleck was great in the movie. However, not as good as Alec Baldwin in “Glengarry Glen Ross”. One of the best scenes ever.We want winners here, not pikers. A piker walks at the bell. A piker asks how much vacation time you get in the first year. Vacation time? People come and work at this firm for one reason: to become filthy rich. That's it. We're not here to make friends. We're not savin' the fuckin' manatees here, guys.
The Notorious BIG said it best: "Either you're slingin' crack-rock, or you've got a wicked jump-shot." Nobody wants to work for it anymore. There's no honor in taking that after school job at Mickey Dee's. Honor’s in the dollar, kid.Act as if.
Cool chips.
Am I the only one who doesn't really like this movie? A bunch of guys trying to act cool, without knowing cool at all...and don't get me started on Ben Affleck.
Yup. It’s not a “great” movie. The story isn’t great. The acting is good but not great. It’s loosely based on the same crew as Wolf of Wall Street. But the one liners are fantastic. Just like Wall Street and Rounders, there are so many memorable lines.Thought the flick was alright. no where close to other movies mentioned above.

When I made my custom ASM set back in the day, I considered making “Scott’s” just like Seth’s. I wish I had.
For sure. Just about everyone is annoying. Seth is a kid of privilege. His dad is a judge. He cut corners throughout his life. Always looking for the easy buck.Maybe I need to watch it again? Admittedly I only watched it once, about 15 years ago but I remember being annoyed by some of the characters.
While we are talking about great scenes...... vin Diesel in knock around guys 500 fights and u can consider yourself a legitimate tough guy.....Ben Affleck was great in the movie. However, not as good as Alec Baldwin in “Glengarry Glen Ross”. One of the best scenes ever.
