Title: Godfather I vs. Godfather II
Post by: Just Another Sunny day in California on April 11, 2006, 11:56:58 PM
though i enjoyed Godfather III it wasn't up there with the previous two films.  This question comes from a disagreement between my older brother and I, but first off i think both movies are fuckin awesome without a doubt in my book both could be consider top 10 movies of all time, yes i said it.  First i tried to compare the performances by Marlon Brando (Godfather I) vs. Al Pacino (Godfather II) nd i believe Al did a fuckin amazing job nd Marlon as well so i came into a dead road...lol so i don't know what do you guys say?

Both are undeniable classics. I prefer Part I over II. Both had great acting but the storyline was a bit more clearer in Part I and I found it a little more interesting. Part II is still the shit though 8) Part III isn't as bad as people make it out to be, it just isn't anywhere near the level of the first 2.

Hey, without Godfather I there wouldn't be a Godfather II.

thank you, i discovered this bitch before anybody knew who she was on Surviving Ted Nguyen. >:(  hahaha.  My good friend took a picture with her at an import show, she (my friend) also loves Tila Nguyen, so my friend gave me the copy of that picture so that'll do for now until i see her in person.

godfather 1. both r classics and prolly the best gangster-oriented films, better than scarface.

Godfather II just pips Godfather I

The way that the 2 stories in Godfather II are done in the one film are outstanding and ahead of its time IMO

These two movies are pretty unique, it's hard for me to view them as two seperate films because once you've seen them, you're thinking about the second movie the whole time you watch the first and thinking about the first the whole time you watch the second... it's really just half of a really long movie to me, I can't really say one's better than the other, Pacino and Brando were two incredible actors, and the two parts were very different, so it's hard to compare the two.  I cannot pick a better, although you may be able to give a slight edge to the first, since it WAS first, and since Brando is no longer with us.  Based solely on quality though I can't pick one over the other. 

The third wasn't half as good as either of the others, imho.
