one dog's facing one way, the other's facing the other way

― s1ocki (slutsky), Wednesday, 12 October 2005 17:33 (twenty years ago)

and this guy's saying, "What do you want from me?"

― Pleasant Plains /// (Pleasant Plains ///), Wednesday, 12 October 2005 17:54 (twenty years ago)

almost like the movie exists in henry's memory

This is OTM, I mean isn't that pretty much the explicit playout at the ending?

funny how misquoting can sound wrong, I thought it was more like:

one dog goes one way, the other dog goes the other way and the guy in the middle's saying "what do you want from me?"

google says:

Tommy DeVito : Oh I like this one... One dog goes one way, the other dog goes the other way, and this guy's sayin', 'Whadda ya want from me?'

― RJG (RJG), Wednesday, 12 October 2005 18:17 (twenty years ago)

Was the guy in the middle? I thought both dogs were at the front of the boat, but you know what? I DON'T HAVE A PHOTOGRAPHIC MEMORY.

― Pleasant Plains /// (Pleasant Plains ///), Wednesday, 12 October 2005 18:21 (twenty years ago)

yeah, I just thought "it wasn't at such a steep angle, they must have been in front"

I haven't seen the movie in a good four or five years

it was a painting, btw, not a photograph

ive been trying to push the sopranos on to pleasant plains for sometime now. since weve watch seasons 1-4 of curb your enthusiasm we need another show to compliment our twice weekly homestyle bake dinners. goodfellas is his favorite movie. does loving goodfellas = loving the sopranos?

Yes it does. Especially when you see Christopher shoot someone in the foot.

― Pleasant Plains /// (Pleasant Plains ///), Wednesday, 5 April 2006 21:51 (twenty years ago)

Goodfellas is great, but am I the only one that thinks the "You think I'm funny?" scene would have worked a thousand times better if the stuff Pesci says beforehand was genuinely laugh-out-loud funny?

Watching Casino on network TV is insane. I didn't know you could say "sand nigger" on regular TV and get away with it. "FREAK YOU, SAM ROTHSTEIN!! FREAK YOU!!"

― Mr. Snrub (Mr. Snrub), Thursday, 6 April 2006 03:54 (twenty years ago)

I love Goodfellas, saw The Sopranos once and don't feel like I'm missing much.

― Dr Morbius (Dr Morbius), Thursday, 6 April 2006 19:33 (twenty years ago)

Also re 'convincing' 'aging' in The Godfather -- HEY, 47-y.o. Marlon Brando, YOU GOT KLEENEX IN YER CHEEKS!

― Dr Morbius (Dr Morbius), Thursday, 6 April 2006 19:37 (twenty years ago)

WRONG

Marlon Brando wanted to make Don Corleone look "like a bulldog", so he stuffed his cheeks with cotton wool for the screen test. For actual filming, he wore an appliance made by a dentist. [...] Brando's mouthpiece is on display in the American Museum of the Moving Image in Queens, New York.

― fez, Thursday, 6 April 2006 20:10 (twenty years ago)

sopranos is great, fuck.

― Real Goths Don't Wear Black (Enrique), Friday, 7 April 2006 07:26 (twenty years ago)

what is pesci *ON ABOUT* in that scene pre the funny speech? i mean, what the...

― piscesboy, Friday, 7 April 2006 10:49 (twenty years ago)

he gets busted by the cops, they're like, why are you out here in the marshes or some shit (he's been whacking someone? as in 'the godfather'?), and he manages to get a night in the cells by being a wiseguy with them.

― 25 yr old slacker cokehead (Enrique), Friday, 7 April 2006 10:50 (twenty years ago)

I was looking for the dialogue for that scene and my colleague just caught me googling "go fuck your mother" :-/

― Onimo (GerryNemo), Friday, 7 April 2006 11:04 (twenty years ago)

that reminds me, Taxi Driver is on More4 tonight.

Goodfellas is amazing, I've never been able to get into Sopranos. Everytime I tried to watch it all I got were scenes with Tony talking to a Phsyciatrist. zzz..

― teh_kit says 'dont fight u nubs just run in teh instance!' (g-kit), Friday, 7 April 2006 12:25 (twenty years ago)

hah, I made ref to the Brando appliance at AMMI in another thread yesterday! Lookin at it, I gotta believe he stuck something else in there.

A former co-worker saw one of the Reel One kids from the movie on the subway once, and when he exclaimed "You're that kid from Goodfellas!" the yute said "Hiya, Hendry."

― Dr Morbius (Dr Morbius), Friday, 7 April 2006 12:31 (twenty years ago)

Is it the marshes story that he tells at the dinner table? Which story is it that Tommy tells at the poker table when Jimmy decides not to go through with whacking the Rug King?

― Pleasant Plains /// (Pleasant Plains ///), Friday, 7 April 2006 15:56 (twenty years ago)

four months pass...

TOMMY (as everyone laughs): I pulled out his hair. I bit him. He's out cold. I'm enraged. I wanted to kill this little fuck. We start to go in this joint. I don't want to turn around. Jimmy's doing this to me. I don't want to turn around. I don't want to turn around. He picks up his fucking head, he says, "Ah..."
I said, "Don't say it!"
"Jerkoff!"
What are you going to do? What? I fly at him. I got him and I'm banging his head, banging his face. I'm pulling his hair out of his head. I bit him to a pulp. To a pulp I beat him. He's laying there full of blood. I'm out of breath.

JIMMY (laughs, turns to Henry): Forget about tonight.

i like this more than 'casino' now. but it's close!

― gear (gear), Friday, 11 August 2006 21:50 (nineteen years ago)

if casino didn't fall to pieces around the third act there'd be some competition but otherwise i don't think it comes close.

― s1ocki (slutsky), Friday, 11 August 2006 21:54 (nineteen years ago)

i was surprised to see how many sopranos faces are around the edges of this film, beyond the obvious like imperioli.

― gear (gear), Friday, 11 August 2006 22:10 (nineteen years ago)

i know right? that reminds me of the first time i saw g'father 2 post-sopranos and i realized that uncle junior was JOHNNY OLA!

― s1ocki (slutsky), Friday, 11 August 2006 22:11 (nineteen years ago)

and vincent gallo is in 'goodfellas'! i don't remember where, though.

ahhhhh i love this movie so much.

― s1ocki (slutsky), Friday, 11 August 2006 22:28 (nineteen years ago)

i went to the gallo imdb message board and found this:

You can see Vincent with very short cropped hair in about two different bar scenes during the 70's sequence. You can see him clearly in one scene playing cards in the background when Henry Hill (Liotta) takes Morrie the wig guy in the back to calm him down about asking for his share of the Luftansa heist. The scene where Liotta pushes the door open and tells him to go ahead and tell Jimmy to give him his share. There's another scene, a quick one, in the same bar a little earlier but I forget. Anyway, there he is.

"don't buy wigs that come off at the wrong time!"

i was gonna ask if you liked 'the aviator', but then i saw your thread

― gear (gear), Friday, 11 August 2006 22:41 (nineteen years ago)

Let's see, who am I leaving out...?

CHRISTOPHER- Spider
DR. MELFI- Karen
PAULIE- Guy who sticks postman's head into pizza oven.
BIG PUSSY- Guy who pushes rack of furs even though it's the middle of summer.
LARRY BOY- But it's seven g's, Tommy.
FURTADO- Billy Batts

That's still a lot.

^^^^best scene in any movie ever

That scene makes me laugh every time I see it. Last night must've been about the 20th time.
