movies that glorify criminal behavior (1 Viewer)

I don't think "every mob movie ever" really works. In most, the mobsters are clearly bad guys that usually meet awful endings. You take a movie like The Godfather, which a lot of real life gangsters in the late 70's & early 80's say influenced them... almost everyone ends up badly.

Not Michael

Michael ends up pretty badly... all the #### he went through in his life, all the people he lost, having his daughter shot dead right in front of him... and he died broken and alone.

That's the last movie- which sucked anyway. His post refers to the original film.

I did refer to the original film, that's true - but I was thinking of the saga as a whole. My bad.

So if Vader is Luke's father...and Luke is Leia's sister...and Leia's a princess...does that make Vader a king of the world he blew up into a billion pieces with the Death Star? Or did he have little somethin'-somethin' on the side with a queen from a different planet?

It only sucked in comparison to 1 and 2. As a standalone, 3 would have been fine.
