The 99% becomes the 1% and the 1% becomes the 99% in a comedy classic about seeing how the other half lives. Trading Places (1983) stars Eddie Murphy, Dan Aykroyd, Ralph Bellamy, Don Ameche, Jamie Lee Curtis, and Paul Gleason and yes, fits our holiday theme criteria because we like to stay festive here on the Mothership. Join the Invasion of the Remake Podcast in discussing the financial themed comedy and remaking it in a strikingly similar, but very different modern world where the divide between the rich and the poor is greater than ever. Don't worry, we bring the funny too. Lots and lots of funny.
