How can you put GF:III on the list? It doesn’t belong in the same category as the first two. I don’t know which is worse, Al Pacino’s overacting or Sophia Coppola’s…Sophia Coppola. I think it’s a crime that GF:I & II aren’t available on DVD after all these years. “Leave the gun, take the cannolis” “Ba-da-bing, you blow his brains all over your nice ivy league suit.” Though it’s not without its flaws and overlong I like Casino. ---

Soulsling, don’t make me come up to NY and kick your ass. Even with the winky smiley thing, that is unacceptable. Padeye, I just _read_ the book Casino on the plane. Great read, true story. Check it out - Nicholas Pileggi, who also brought us the story behind GoodFellas. ---

I agree GFIII is a trifle overacted. But I like it mostly because of Andy Garcia. The guy was great in his role. ---

I’ll agree with that. I just think it belong further down the list…probably with Casino. Andy Garcia was great but I’m a bit more reserved on Joe Mantegna’s acting. It was good but his Fat Tony character on _The Simpsons_ has almost turned it into a self parody. ---

_Once Upon a Time in America_. Also Al Pacino in _Scarface_, even though some of the movie was not worthwhile. ---
