Re: Anyone interested in mobster movies?

I'll see it eventually. When you said New York, you reminded me of Gangs of New York. Great film!

Re: Anyone interested in mobster movies?

I loved both Reservoir Dogs and Pulpfiction. I think I just <3 Tarantino period.

I really liked Snatch too, but I haven't seen Lock, Stock and Two Smoking Barrels yet.

Saw Goodfellas and Gangs of New York... and I thought Mean Streets too, but for some reason I can't remember that one. Maybe I didn't see it?

I haven't seen the rest mentioned, including the Godfathers... I know, I know...

I need to go back to Gangster school, huh?

Re: Anyone interested in mobster movies?

I'm impressed.

Re: Anyone interested in mobster movies?

I'm impressed.

By what I've seen? Why? That's not atypical. I would think the average person may have even seen more of them, no?

Jackie Brown wasn't gangster, but I like that too. More Tarantino... yay!

I don't think the average person would have seen the movies you just listed.

The average person probably has seen The Godfather but Reservoir Dogs, Pulp Fiction, Snatch... are you kidding? Most people haven't even heard of those films.

Mean Streets is one of Scorsese's first films and it's pretty rare to come by. It stars Harvey Keitel and Robert DeNiro. If you've seen that, I am extremely impressed. It's such a small scale film but a really good one.

Ha... I didn't know most people didn't know those movies. I didn't know Mean Streets was that rare either. I'm pretty sure my brother has it. That may be the source of my confusion. I may have just seen the dvd and not watched it.

Between my brother the film buff and Stark Evade (who has great film tastes and a knack for finding the obscure), I've gotten decent exposure.
Although since I moved for school, I have only seen a handful of movies.

Re: Anyone interested in mobster movies?

Well, Mean Streets isn't really rare as in hard to find on DVD. It's just hard to find average people who have heard of the film.

I think Pulp Fiction is only known in mainstream because of that little dance scene. Too bad, because there's so much more to the film.

How do you know Stark Evade, just through the forum? Is he the only member on this forum with great film taste? Ahem.

Re: Anyone interested in mobster movies?

Haha, not the only one on the forum no. There's also me... so 2 on the forum.
