  1. Interesting, I take that line as a reference to a deeper artistic struggle within, ie: should you pour out your heart artistically or should you keep it in so as not to compromise yourself (or something).
  2. If you can get your mitts on any of the discs from this collection, you're pretty much set for life:
  3. That hand wave Pacino gives as he's about to light the cigarette is awesome.
  4. I saw Zodiac on Saturday and enjoyed the hell out of it. Then we snuck into I Think I Love My Wife and lasted for about 30 minutes. Yikes.
  5. I can't decide which hair I love more. Wait, yeah I can.
  6. Just wondering - was this projected in the background while Sammy and Mike accepted the VH award?
  7. Aww, man. Graham Parker needs spambots?
  8. So that's why my wife always calls our neighborhood Italian restaurant "My Antonia's" instead of "Antonia's" (its name). Huh.
  9. You're not missing out on anything.
  10. I think it's more of an album than any of their others. I didn't hear many of the songs in live format before hearing the album.
  11. Good point, I hadn't thought of it that. Something's missing from the second one that I've always chalked up to the lack of Sonny and Vito, but the addition of Hyman Roth alone makes that argument shaky. Maybe it is that "pre-ordained" thing. Another point on Part III: the acting/casting/plot issues are somewhat irrelevant to me because the story is part of the story. When I watch Michael's daughter hopscotching in the hotel hallway as a kid, I think "She gets shot to death." I can't not believe in Part III.
  12. Seconded. For all I know it will be my favorite song on the album at some point.
  13. 'We Built This City' may be the only example of the 'so bad it's good' concept that I accept.
  14. This thread is dedicated to The Godfather. If any film I've seen deserves the best film ever title, it's this. People go nuts over The Godfather Part II, and it's a great, great film, but that whole 'maybe better than the original' argument is ridiculous. Maybe that's why I'm one of the few people I've met who likes Part III. Compared to the first, it's nearly on par with most other films in general. I don't mean to knock Part II, I love it. The final scene, the flashback to Michael's Marine announcement/the Don's birthday song, gets richer and more nuanced for me every time. Michael doesn't
