Well, the third kinda sucked by comparison to the first two.

And maybe it's just me, but somehow I don't see The Godfather as being a VH-1 kinda movie.

I love mob movies, but I hate the violence.

There is something romantic about the mafia.

Bah reading!

Reading has its place, but sometimes you just have to put down your romance novel and leap onto the deck of your rivals ship!

I'm not sure if that counts. I'll have to think on it!

I'm still trying to figure out some sort of emblem for my pirate company!

An artist I am not though.

You smell that? Do you smell that? ...Napalm, son. Nothing else in the world smells like that. I love the smell of napalm in the morning. You know, one time we had a hill bombed for twelve hours. When it was all over I walked up. We didn't find one of 'em, not one stinkin' dink body. The smell, you know that gasoline smell, the whole hill. Smelled like... victory.

I'm rather lucky, we're watching this in my English course later this semester.. Only problem is we're gonna have to look for the symbolism in the movie, as part of an assignment...

"You wanna get Capone? I'll tell you how to get Capone. He pulls a knife, you pull a gun. He sends one of yours to the hospital, you send one of his to the morgue. That's the Chicago way."

There is no movie more quotable than The Untouchables (Star Wars/Trek movies don't count, due to the sheer geekiness of saying a Star Wars quote in public).

And there is no one greater than Connery (no, Delphi, that was not an invitation for you to plug your impression).

The train scene at the end with the baby stroller is one of the cooler shoot-outs ever filmed.

If you want baby hijinx, you should see "Once Upon a Time in America".

Leave it to those crazy Mobsters to mix bassinettes up on the chief of police!

I love the untouchables. Even though its more about the police trying to get the mob then it is about the mob.

Sean Connery is just something special. I'd turn my tail up for him any day!
