[Unrighteous]

[hamstrung]

[Guest Arbeloa]

Overrrated. Casino's way better.

[Red Phoenix]

 

Hah, the funny guy scene in that cracked me up. Awesome.

 

Just bumping this oldie because I saw it again last night for the first time in years, and it was amazing to watch again. One thing I was surprised at was the amount of times the film had me in stitches, there's some really funny parts in it. This is now one of my fave scenes by far :

First ever thing I bought on Blu-Ray. Such a fucking awesome film, with every scene/character just pure gold.

 

"Eh bing, what are you doin here, I thought I told you ta go fuck yo' mother"

Got a feeling blu-ray won't be around long though, HD-DVD seems to be the format the industry is getting behind. Which is an arse.

 

Heh, you got that wrong you mumbling, stuttering fuck.

haha good spot. Fuck me, that's got to rank quite highly on the 'more wrong that Johnny McWrong, winner of this years Mr Wrong contest'.

The level of crossover with the Sopranos is massive. Morie was the Jewish bloke in the first season.

 

And of course, the ultimate tribute.

teehee

 

Whats the Goodfellas bluray like, Nick? Nice transfer?

[snez1]

My favourite film probably.

 

The continuity errors are massive, why? Dod Marty do it on purpose or just fuck up a bunch of times because the are so obvious (not that they detract from the film at all).

[The Bugged Out]

has anyone got this on blu ray? is it much improvement quality wise?

[Brownie]

Class film.

I love the contrast between the two characters Imperioli plays. He is a phenomenal actor.

[Ezekiel 25:17]

It's very good but there are way better gangster movies.

Name them then ;)

[snez1]

GF I and II maybe....i can never decide which i love most.

The Untouchables is up there, Goodfellas got to be the best gangster film though.

Name as many as you can. I can think of approx a dozen.

 

Can't think of that many off the top of my head, but here goes:

 

Carmine Lupitazi is one of the gangsters in the club scene

Carmela's mum is Karen's mum

Mori is the jew Tydleman (sp) in season one.

Karen is Melfi

The club owner is Larry Boy Barese

Pussy has an unspoken part where he's hanging up coats in the club

Paulie Walnuts is one of the gangsters

Christopher is Spider

 

Can't think of many more, although I know the same casting director worked on both the Sopranos and Goodfellas, and Lorraine Bracco and Ray Liotta were pencilled in for the roles of Carmela and Tony but turned them down.

Untouchables is right up there. So is De Palma's other epic, Carlito's Way.

 

Goodfellas and Casino are a match for Godfather I and II.

 

Can't think of one that stands out as head and shoulders above these, but others I'd throw into the ring are Once Upon a Time In America and Kings of New York.

Got to chuck Donnie Brasco on your DVD stack for your fantasy gangster marathon.

Billy Batts is Phil Leotardo.

Paullie is in a good few scene early on doin his mafia finger pointing.

[col06]

I watched Donnie Brasco the other week I thought that was quiet good

[Ted]

Bugsy Malone and Dick Tracy.
