how is it  a nostalgia thing, robert duval was named the most diverse actor in film history by gueniss book of world records not too long ago, AFI lists Brando , Pacino, and DeNiro as three of the greatest method actors of all time. again to tell me i don't know shit about acting and film because i like the godfather is the new dumbest post of all time.....

Wow, you're not only slow, but you can't comprehend shit. Where did I say you don't know shit because you like "The Godfather"? Please point it out here, genius. I said that it's funny that you named 3 actors from the same generation as the greatest (despite the fact that they ARE great actors), right after I said it was a nostalgia thing...Do you understand yet? :)

if it was a nostalgia thing with me, i'd have to be a 59 year old man who lived through that era. instead i'm a 21 year old who is talking in grand detail about method and character acting

also you are king of fallacies here . brando pacino deniro and duval are not all from the same generation, brando is from a generation which is succeeded by duvals generation which is succeded by deniro and pacino's generation. that's one of the reasons why this film is beloved by grandpa, mom , dad, and little brother.

saying that i need to take film classes then trying to discredit my knowledge of acting and argument because i brought up the godfather is by far the dumbest thing i've ever seen on this board. that's like dissing some one for bring up reggie miller in a conversation about greatest three point shooters


LOL. You simply don't get it, man, and you probably never will...It's a nostalgia thing because you grew up loving "The Godfather"...Just look at the 4 actors you named. LMAO! Points been proven long ago, but I can keep simplifying if you want.


 i grew up loving purple rain too, but i'm not sitting here trying to say prince is the goat of acting also
i barely got into the godfather when i was in highschool but even if i came out the uterus loving the movie or if i was aborted and done away with it still wouldn't take away the facts that....

marlon brando is considered one of the greatest actors of all time and many consider him the greatest actor of all time- FACT.
the Role of Vito Corleone is considered Brandos grandest roles ever-FACT
The Godfather and the Godfather Trilogy along with Citizen Kane are considered the top three movies of all time-FACT
Michael Corleone is considered one of the grandest roles of all time-FACT
Michael Corleone is considered one of Al pacino's greatest roles-FACT

Vito Corleone is considered one of Robert Deniro's best roles-FACT
Both Robert Deniro and Marlon Brando won oscars and other awards for the portrayal of Vito Corleon-FACT
Robert Duval has a thick southern accent and lisp, that most people would not know he had from watching the godfather movies, he's that good at transforming himself-FACT



how am i being nostalgic when all of this is fact?

also the godfather isn't even my favorite Deniro Role, the moment i knew Deniro was THEE shit was "awakenings" 



The whole point was that Jack and De Niro are comparable when it comes to acting, and the fact that you acted otherwise made it appear nostalgic, especially due to your love for "The Godfather" and the fact that every actor you've named played in that movie...PeAcE

I dunno about that. Sean Penn is great, but a little overrated.

Tom Hanks and Mel Gibson are both better actors.  Sean Penn is an excellent actor, though.  Tom Hanks and Mel Gibson don't get the 'artistic' respect they deserve because they're so commercially successful.  Hanks' catalog of Forrest Gump, Philidelphia, and the Green Mile stand up to anything Penn has done, and Mel Gibson has shown incredible talent in almost everything he's done.  

My favorite Sean Penn movie was "Sweet and Lowdown", and I also really liked "Up at the villa".  Dead man Walking was good too, Mystic River, I am Sam, etc.  I am sam was really good because it launched Dakota Fanning's career, she's a wonderful actress.  

BULLSHIT! i'm talking about acting not movie star....LOL @ mel gibson being better....thats cool that u mentioned hanks...but naw...thats like saying jack nicholson >>>>robert de niro

Mel Gibson is an incredible actor.  Also, Jack Nicholson is a greater actor than Robert DeNiro, who in his own turn is an incredible actor.  We're talking about the elite here, saying Nicholson is better than DeNiro doesn't necessarily birth that DeNiro isn't a good actor.  Not many are on Nicholson's level, DeNiro is arguably on his level or above.  You shouldn't just blindly reject Mel Gibson as a great 'current' actor, though.

I actually didn't care for his performance in that scene all that much. I didn't believe the crying. Of course it's very hard to play a tough guy that cries and I'm not saying Nicholson could have done it better but I think Marty's choice to hae him in the shadows may have been finalized when he saw that in the light it would have appeared a bit goofy. Ofcourse it's all just my opinion.
