I was thinking;
If the terrorists just want to take his money, why isn't it called "The taking of IcyGamma's Money"?

Because they take over Isar Tower in order to get the money. Episode 3 fills in this question a little bit, as there is still more that you don't understand about Gammer and his motives.

Also the original true story which it is based off that happened in Blockland does not include any money transaction obviously.

In the scene when Vivian is fired by IcyGamma, Vivian doesn't move even as Icy leaves the room. However, in the script Vivian is shocked by the decision. Being a weaker personality, he is does not make eye contact with Icy and instead stands there stunned.

The goof here is then in the writing of the script.

When you're making a script for a certain context, you always take the context itself into consideration. The viewer should be able to clearly understand what is happening. It's usually a bad idea to try and convey complex emotional concepts through blockland, however tempting the idea may be in theory.

Perhaps. Although I find each viewer has varying intelligence. Some get the story immediately, others miss points or don't understand certain aspects, and as I found out earlier some fail to follow the story at all or get confused over things as simple as who is the villain.

I give far more credit to the audience than I should. However, I'd rather explain to people what certain gestures meant in the movie rather than leave them out and cheapen the production.
