yeah, I didn't think he shoulda been in the movie....when I read a preview of the movie and saw that he was in it, I didn't think he would play a good role in it, cuz I mean I didn't think this was his type of movie...but he actually suprised me a did a good job....

i thought it was the perfect role for him...i just thought he'd have a bigger part than he did...i was surprised he wasnt the main character...especially since that came out after tf&tf

I don't know how he could be the main character if it was about an Italian boy earning trust from his father and shit...I dont think Vin diesel could pull that role off...

I gotta tell ya, I've seen them all, and The Godfather, & Scarface were great... but in my opinion (MY opinion), Easily the best acted and most interesting Mob type movie... urgh, whatever... is "The Sopranos" on HBO. EASILY better than even the Godfather.  In My Opinion.  It probably differs from others opinions, but that's my feeling.  The acting period just blows everything else I've seen away (with MAYBE the exception of Pacino's portrayal of Scarface).

in some ways i agree with you...but i think its easier for them to make a better portrayal of that type of life over 6 seasons than it is over 1 or even 3 movies...the sopranos is a damn good show though.

^^ Yeah, but I was hooked after about 3 episodes, that's less than 3 hours, about the length of the first Godfather.  

And it's only been 4 seasons broadcast so far, but I get your point, and you're right, I'm just saying if you want good gangster stuff, the Sopranos is by far the best.  The actors and Actresses alone make it worth watching, these guys and girls are class acts, some of the greatest talent in acting today works for that show.

yea i agree...btw...by 6 seasons i meant that they have the 6th filmed already lol...my bad i should've clarified...but yeah i agree...the show is dope as hell. i remember the funniest thing i've ever seen in that show...i dont remember what season it was from or even who said it...but it was something like this:

old man: drop your pants
young man: what?
old man: drop your pants
(young man drops his pants)
old man: eh...i guess you could call that a dick

that shit had me rollin...

They've actually only filmed 5 seasons but signed on for a 6th.  That scene you're talking about was Paulie talking to Chris, they were strip searching people randomly to see if they were wearing wires, LOL.
