"Goodfellas" vs. "Casino" (1 Viewer)

If this ever goes on ebay, I'm getting out the checkbook: http://media.tumblr.com/3176b25dd58342c066f0c3c524b32946/tumblr_inline_mw2l5oifvw1r9rfs8.jpg

I found an artist online who paints a replica of that on canvas. Was like $150, then got it framed in the blue frame and it's currently displayed in my kitchen (it's where Tommy's mom kept it, so it's where I'm keeping it). Best item in the house by far.

I like dis... one dog goes one way and the other dog goes the udder way!

It looks like somebody we know.

Paulie and his brothers had lots of sons and nephews, and almost all of them were named Peter or Paul. It was unbelievable. There must have been two dozen Peters and Pauls at the wedding. Plus, they were all married to girls named Marie. And they named all their daughters Marie. By the time I finished meeting everybody, I thought I was drunk.

Thought that was gonna be the "Pike's Peak" scene before I clicked on it.

"3200 bucks for a lifetime", is pretty sad.

Personal preference, I guess. I felt bad for Tommy, even though he was a psychopath. I didn't feel sorry for Rat Hendry one bit.

The former Las Vegas home of Frank "Lefty" Rosenthal, the late casino exec, mob associate, and FBI informant whose exploits inspired Martin Scorsese's Casino, is back on the market for a lucky-sounding $777K.

If I had that kind of cash, I'd be all over this. I'd expect that to be priced well higher that 777k. Sweet pad, with some history (and the bullet chipped window to prove it!).

As "Goodfellas" turns 25, here are 25 things you never knew about Scorsese's mobster flick.

The title of that article should be "25 things you probably knew" about Scorsese's mobster flick.

I realize that Goodfellas will win this poll, but I want to see how much respect Casino gets. The more years that go by, Casino gets closer and closer to Goodfellas in my mind. For some reason, Casino seems to get short-changed when discussing all-time great movies. A lot of people were turned off by the extreme violence, I believe.

Goodfellas started out on fire, but the ending didn't seem to pack the same punch.

Casino really was an excellent production, start to finish. Sharon Stone played pathetic flawlessly.

Casino pales in comparison. Way too much voice over, distracting and amateurish.

Goodfellas just started on BBCA. Probably edited, with commercials.

both of these are on netflix now.  casino still better.  this poll owes an apology.

The overall arc of Casino is just so much better and has a much more real feel to it.

Guys, both of these movies celebrate violence and lawlessness. Let’s not do this here, plenty of other boards where this kind of thing goes.

I love Casino, but Sharon Stone screaming her head off for like 15 minutes straight near the end is very tedious.  Still a great flick, but Goodfellas is just better.

Casino isn’t in the same league as Goodfellas
