This is the only movie I could find with the literal title "2008": https://www.imdb.com/title/tt10882960/ And Wikipedia doesn't have an article on any.

Preeeeeetty sure that's a joke, likening the events of the previous big crash to a film.

Speaking of films about the previous big crash, you could try "Margin Call" if you want a very straight-faced (to say nothing of po-faced) take, or "The Big Short" if you prefer something that, while no more genuinely incisive, is at least willing to pretend as though it were.
