That wasn't the point here.

But maybe it was

TMO lately feels like watching Wall Street.
I just don't think there will be a Bud Fox to come around and save Nokia.

The first Wall Street film was brilliant. Really captured the rot of financial capitalism in the 80's. The second one was just horrible.

It would be cool, if someone made sequal to the film "Pirates of Silicon Valley". The sequal would deal with the smartphone revolution in the same way as the original handled the PC revolution. The scene where Nokia and Microsoft sign the deal would be equavalent of this scene in the original.
