Why isn't he doing some training instead?

"Sure, I'll train. I'll train so much, in fact. Watch this for traini-- WOAH, shit, way too heavy."

"... Phew, that was a close one. Better watch Chinatown instead."

I also am not watching the Superbowl. AM I CM Punk? But I'm not watching Chinatown. As dope as it is, it isn't even in my top 10 dope 70s movies.
 
So for those that have signed up for free months of the network before, can I cancel immediately and get the whole month or do I need to wait to cancel at the end of the month?

  • Just about anything with Pam Grier. 'Cuz god damn.



The 70s was a wonderful time for movies and music.

De'Niro was never a good actor to me....he's ok at best :/. The only movie I enjoyed him in was Raging Bull.

Yep, all of those are great

method actor deniro was him at his best. He stopped giving a shit way earlier than Pacino, which I blame on movies like Goodfellas and Casino.
 
It's debatable who's better but I would say Pachino at his worst is worse than De Niro at his worst. De Niro has more classics under his belt too.

Yea that's it. Them movies boxed him in. At least Pesci tried to be more than a angry small mafia figure in some movies. De'Niro kept the train moving.
 
De Niro is the bomb:

Mean Streets
GoodFellas
The King of Comedy
Midnight Run
Awakenings
Taxi Driver
Heat
The Deer Hunter
Casino
Jackie Brown
Godfather Pt. II

Mean Streets, Taxi Driver, and Chinatown need to be on any best 70's movie list, in my opinion.

I've been meaning to see Mean Streets, but fuck Taxi Driver. It's boring as shit and is basically like The Catcher In The Rye of movies to me. Whiny bullshit that people accepted as justification for their misanthropic attitudes when they were in fact supposed to be the opposite. I had the same issues with Nightcrawler, except Nightcrawler has a happy ending for the main character, which totally belittles the "Media and people in it are bad sociopaths and being a bad sociopath is bad" message the director claimed to have.
