Not seeing that as spam: even though a business is mentioned, it’s the most relevant-possible business to the discussion (unless De Niro’s agent were to come into the thread or something). Bob’s Big Boy Burbank, thank you for the insider perspective!

And of course since the time this thread was created, they have starred in another movie together - [Righteous Kill](http://www.imdb.com/title/tt1034331/), where they spend plenty of time on screen together.

Kind of spammy… but not egregious.

Edit: This thread was bumped by someone promoting a restaurant where a De Niro - Pacino scene was shot. I was willing to let it go as non-spam, and the original version of this post stated that.

**Ellen Cherry** disagreed and deleted that person’s post and a couple of responses. **Muldoonthief** also posted after the bump, but since s/he wasn’t responding to the spammer, **Ellen** left his/her post. To be clear, though, s/he is not responsible for resurrecting this thread.

Timely zombie bump, as there has been recent news that Pacino and DeNiro (and maybe Pecsi) [will be appearing in Martin Scorsese’s “I Heard You Paint Houses,”](http://www.telegraph.co.uk/culture/film/9701335/Scorsese-Al-Pacino-Pesci-and-De-Niro-reunite-for-the-ultimate-gangster.html) about the guy that claimed to have killed Jimmy Hoffa (Pacino would play Hoffa, DeNiro the guy that claims to have killed him.)
