I thought the departed was BORING.
I mean, BORING

yeah no shit. mediocre & forgettable.

good with Mitchum
The Friends of Eddie Coyle (1973)
(low-budget '70s gold (also features Peter Boyle))

disappointing with Mitchum
The Yakuza (1975)
(written by Paul Schrader just before Taxi Driver, (he did Raging Bull too))

is it really as good as imdb rating suggests?
I know imdb is kinda meh for ratings , but still 9.1 is really impressive ha ha.
I wish I lived in a country were all movies in theathers had the "original language" option to choose. Dubbing sucks. Seeing great movies on dvd with original language is cool, but I wanna see them with the big screeeeeeen argh.

ha ha. thats easy man

HEH!
:D
she's a nice nose.
You lucky hollywoddiancountry inhabitants!

i voted godfather with the public enemy coming in second.

i think Mickey and Nickey should have been on that list.
it is one of the more powerful and different gangster movies that i have seen...

The Public Enemy with Cagney was on AMC or TCM or somesuch the other night and I watched a few minutes. Saw it years ago (White Heat too) on VHS loan from the library; they were pretty good.

is that yr wife??

Seriously.....I mean how many fucking times do we really need a movie about the "undercover rat." The acting was pretty good though.

tha acting was good, but the movie was so slow paced, so tiringly structured.

...pure as the driven snow that way, eh?

(in response to deleted post)

Nic's complimentary comments are what made me wonder.

who knows though. can't really judge a person's age based on photos alone.

*shrug*

Sorry, mines were just generic omniderectional thoughts.

....and predictable

haha no need to be sorry, I just figured you would be more in the know.

I've never seen a pic of his wife, I've only seen one of him, and he has so far managed to deftly avoid OKC.

*shrugs*

*throws hands up*

*goes back to pushing money-flavored buttons*

ha ha no!

i just googled "close to the tv", and bam

ps- keep my wife out of this cesspool

well, she did look a little young, but then, I was told today that my facial hair now makes it seem as if I'm "not 12".

related/unrelated: I have a headache and I feel like I'm going to explode. times like these make me want to either disappear like Hoffa or wack somebody.


mine seems to handle it better than I do.

*more e-shrugs*

ha ha. well...


whatever works for her :D
i'm old school...

What came first to my mind: Goodfellas, Casino, Mean Streets (if that counts), Scarface (De Palma, I haven't seen the original), The Godfather, Once Upon A Time In America... and also Melville's Le Samouraï and Le Cercle Rouge, both which I have just seen recently and absolutely loved...

Oh and I really liked Ghost Dog too (which has to many references to Le Samouraï, by the way)...

I am not able to choose one at the moment, though.
