For galts sake I won't go anything pre-godfather. This is the list you must choose from, no write-ins.

KAREN!! THAT WAS ALL WE HAD!!!!!

I gotta go with the movie i've seen probably over a 100 times, so SAY HELLO TO MY LITTLE FRIEND!!! and I don't mean my cock.
- TheGMANN - 07-25-2005
You didn't include BUGSY ?
- drusilla - 07-25-2005
the goodfellas/godfather debate might depend on which you saw first
- The Sleeper - 07-25-2005
I was all ready to vote Donnie Brasco cause i thought this would just be mafia movies.
- Galt - 07-25-2005
OMG OMG OMG OMG me and Sleeper voted for the same thing!!!!!!

ive seen godfather 1/2 about the same number of times as goodfellas. its a tough call, but goodfellas has a slight edge because its funnier than the godfather movies.
- Galt - 07-25-2005
The Godfather doesn't have a shitty 40 minute patch like the end of Goodfellas. That whole cocaine selling thing was just painfully boring to watch.

Young Clemenza = Bruno Kirby = Victor Ray/Freshman therefore Young Clemenza is a fraud.
- GonzoStyle - 07-25-2005
you damn well know which clemenza I meant, theres only one true clemenza.
- Galt - 07-25-2005
Kirby was also that poof coach in Basketball Diaries. Way more embarassing

Pulp Fiction is a good movie the first couple of times you see it and then you end up getting bored after awhile, same with Reservoir Dogs.
Casino was always eh.
Carlito's Way i actually just saw for the first time over the weekend at my brother's house and i was so horrified by the boat scene that i don't think ill watch it again.
I'm sticking with Goodfellas because overall i think it's the best in terms of pace, acting, the plot itself and blah blah blah. It's also easier to watch than GF 1/2.
- GonzoStyle - 07-25-2005
very interesting
- Galt - 07-25-2005
so then why is it, when we had a "best movie" poll Godfather finished ahead of Goodfellas?
- The Sleeper - 07-25-2005
it is fucking retarded that goodfellas is beating godfather 6-1

My thinking too.
Don't get me wrong the Godfather is a classic, but the violence and story flow better with Goodfellas.

You also forgot the classic HOODLUM.

TheGMANN Wrote:You also forgot the classic HOODLUM.Bugsy was ok but it doesn't hold on repeat viewings, everyone except for Beaty is awesome in the film, especially Ben Kingsley as Meyer Lanksky. Beaty's performance was second only to his portrayl of the rapping politician in bullworth. I couldn't ever tire of hearing warren beaty say "nappy dugout".
Hoodlum was also very good but it doesn't hold up to the other films. Garcia's Lucky Luciano was the most faithful ever and Dutch Schultz's death scene was also the first time they really got it right.
