Godfather I. The movie is a fucking masterpiece. There isn't anything wrong with it... The directing, the plot, the acting, the music, the set... everything is fuckin perfect. I voted for Godfather Trylogy.

Goodfellas is tight, but i mean c'mon, it's a far cry from Scarface, Godfather, even Once Upon a Time in America

what´s your fav movie from the godfather trilogy?

I can't decide.. both Marlon Brando and DeNiro are great in the respective movies. Plus have you seen Pacino's eyes when he realizes Fredo backstabbed him  :o.. anyways the 3rd part is way below part 1 and 2, but that is just what everyone knows.

Title: Re: Favourite Gangsta Movie?
Post by: Rampant on February 17, 2005, 04:42:52 AM
out of the trilogy id probably pick 2. I think the movie gets really intense when you see how pacino went from a innocent loving guy, to a stone cold killer.

Don't Be A Menace To South Central Well Drinking You Juice In Tha Hood

lol... nah, my favorite gangsta movie of all time in the Godfather. Part I, to me it's just the shit. There is no movie that tops it. Marlon Brando fucks that movie up, and any movie in which Marlon Brando and Al Pacino are co-existing as father and son, I mean it's unfuckwitable. Think about it, Brando and Pacino, no wonder it's one of the few gangsta movies to be considered a classic in every way. Godfather II just adds to the trilogy, and part III, well Vito had two great sons in Michael and Sonny, part III is the Fredo of the series. But it's all good, because I know many Italian actors want in on part IV, and with Andy Garcia, you have a local Godfather if they ever decide on a part IV. I personally wouldn't do it, but hey, it makes money. Anyways, part I&II make for the greatest gangsta movies ever, and their is no way that can be disputed.

Scarface is the ideal gangster movie, all that other shit is nothing compared to it. So many good lines too, and al pacino is a fucking dope actor.
Tony montana is so much more of a gangster than that whiteboy on goodfellas. Tupac and Biggie, the best rappers of all time watched this movie daily, goodfellas is nothing compared to scarface. Brian dePalma directs both scarface and the godfather.

DePalma did not direct the Godfather.  Depalma is one of the best at copying other people's works.  Who fucking cares that Tupab and Biggie watched the movie daily?  that "whiteboy" is an actual person he actually was a gangster and not a fictionional character based on a Howard Hughes movie from the 20s

Seeing it as a film Goodfellas shits all over Scarface
Seeing it as a crime movie, its on the same level


One of the big pluses Goodfellas has on Scarface is that Goodfellas is an actual look inside the mob while on the other hand Scarface is such a simple look at your typical rags to riches story

Your a fucking retard and i hope your aware of that. True events means that 12500 cubans immigrated to America in 1980, 25000 of them had a criminal record and half of them pursued a life of crime in the cocaine buisness around miami. Yo fareal fuck that whiteboy in goodfellas how bout that, mothafucka aint even close to being tony montana. shit i cant see how goodfellas is even in the top 3, shit is just a remake of any italian gangster movie.

what u fucking kiddin me ?
Scarface may not be based on a true story but i guarentee you its based on true events. This shit depicts the american dream from a poor immigrants prespective. Ive seen both movies and i dont place goodfellas even close to scarface.

Scarface IS based on true events... the original scarface from 1937 i belive was the year is based on none other than Al Capone's life, and Scarface from 83 is a remake.. however, Scarface from 83 has nothin in common with al capone  :laugh:

HAHAHAHA damn man...scarface and al capone's life?!?!?! u're way 2 far from the truth! Scarface=Tony Montana...and when it comes for gangsters that really lived don't mess around with me..i recommend "Terror in Chicago" (i don't know the books name in English) and as a conclusion Goodfellas>>>>Scarface because it has more dope lines, and "A tale from Bronx" was cool...

Out of 12,500 cuban immigrants 25,000 had a criminal record? Your argument loses all weight because you are unable to do simple math.

1. Godfather I
2. Goodfellas
3. Scarface
4. Godfather II
5. Once Upon A Time In America

u guys need to stop smokin that crack. Scarface is THE best gangsta movie. Goodfellas is real good but it dont come close to scarface. Who gives a fuck if it was based on a true story. Its a movie. Tony Montana is the GOAT.

The 1930s Scarface is based on the era of the 20s and 30s.  During the prohibition and so on, it is not based on Al Capone.  It wasnt until the late 50s,60s and 80s where movies based on Al capone came out.  Just like the original scarface, the latest scarface is just based on an era of crime.  Thats the only thing those two movies have in common really, that is based on an era of crime.  All the credit for Scarface should be given to Oliver stone who wrote those lines and Pacino who said them

Ive read some books aswell and what said was that the Scarface movie from the 30's is based on al capones life, its far from a biography and very far from al capones real life, but its based and influenced by him... al capone was known as Tony "Scarface" Capone, wich was one of his "nicknames",

however.. this has very little with the movie itself to do  :P

SCARFACE>>>goodfellas

Scarface owns goodfellas any day. That was al pacino at his best. Theres is no other movie character that can come close to tony montana.

No his role in Godfather is his best, then Scarface, then Donnie Brasco.

look at my sig do i need to say more??? Scarface is top 5 of all time no doubt, but Goodfellas just interests me more because it was based on a true story like for example "Blow" or "Donnie Brasco"

may not be based on a true story but based on true events??? are you fuckin kidding me? What true events are shown in Scarface??? Yeah it depicts the american dream but are you saying that Goodfellas doesn't??? if you think about it in Goodfellas, Henry Hill comes from Immigrant parents who are searching for the American Dream, both movies show that you idiot. Your just dick riding all those rappers and trying to be cool. Like i said i love the movie Scarface no doubt it's top 5 of all time but Goodfellas is a better movie, a better look inside the mob world and unlike Scarface is based on a true story.
Your a fucking retard and i hope your aware of that. True events means that 12500 cubans immigrated to America in 1980, 25000 of them had a criminal record and half of them pursued a life of crime in the cocaine buisness around miami. Yo fareal fuck that whiteboy in goodfellas how bout that, mothafucka aint even close to being tony montana. shit i cant see how goodfellas is even in the top 3, shit is just a remake of any italian gangster movie.
1.Scarface
2.Godather
3.GodfatherII

No you're the fuckin retard your whole argument is that Tony Montana is a better character than Henry Hill so that makes Scarface the better movie??? but what the fuck does that have to do with being the better movie??? I'm saying Goodfellas is better than Scarface as an OVERALL MOVIE, i never once said Henry Hill is a better character than Tony Montana.  Don't know why i'm wasting my time arguing with you, i mean you placed Scarface above Godfather I & II hahaha that's some funny shit, you must be some kind of idiot.  Saying Scarface is better than Goodfellas is one thing but saying it's better than Godfather is a whole different thing.

1.Godfather I&II
2.Scarface

After there is a list of dope ass gangster movies such as goodfellas, casino, donnie brasco, once upon a time in america, king of new york, deep cover, etc., but they don't come close to the masterpieces that Godfather I&II and Scarface are. As far as the goodfellas vs. scarface goes; goodfellas was a real good movie. It definitely was a lot more believable and showed a real close up look inside the mob, but I don't know. For some reason I just don't see it up there with scarface. Now I think about it goodfellas would probably make number three on my list.
