The problem with your chart is that most of those movies came after crashes. They are Hollywood reactions to market crashes.

Hollywood must be pretty prescient then, since it generally takes years for a movie to go from conception and screenwriting to release.

If I were a Hollywood producer, I'd try to have one of these films completed and ready for release at all times just to take advantage of the hype when something happens on Wall Street. That might have the side effect of making me look prescient, but it's just good marketing.

Oh no, don't tell me the TA says this film's priced in already! Cheesy
