I didn't see this until I was like 25. Now everytime one of our friends hasn't seen it, we invite them over for Italian food and a viewing. Usually becomes a two night thing when they naturally want to see the equally awesome part 2.
Still haven't seen the third one, I need to out of curiosity.

I've never seen The Godfather. Just haven't got around to it yet.

It doesn't look like a jaguar! Looks more like a slender cat with spots hissing than a jaguar roaring.

It's not as bad as everyone says, and it has a cool premise. But it's really marred by a few awful decisions

Maybe his contract demand will get so crazy we'll have to let him walk. Oh shit, there's still a chance!

Larry my man, you need to. Like I said, I only saw it recently and it's easily in my top 10 of all time and I'm the furthest thing from a movie snob. I roll my eyes out of my socket at most every indie movie I see so believe me when I say that the Godfather is awesome.
Best way to cap off your Super Bowl celebrating!
You've never driven an Equus I take it. A relative of mine has one, ridiculous car with recliners, fridge, all sorts of tech and power galore 420hp. I was amazed at the quality.

Idk if you are agreeing or disagreeing with me.

Arguably? I think it's pretty much dogmatic at this point.
I must be soulless, because those whimsical 80s kids movies never phased me once. Princess Bride, The Goonies, they just bounced off me and I had to withstand my contemporaries questioning my sanity for not slobbering all over the TV whenever they were on.
I dont think so chocha. You'll give him a 11 year 222 million contract and You'll love it mister!

But is it better than Robin Hood: Prince of Thieves?
I'm actually about to watch Raid: Redemption for the first time.
If I was a team that had to pay a QB, I would just dump all his bonus money in year one of the contract. Just pay him like $40m in salary in year 1, then a modest 6-7m every year after. Year one is just a tear down rebuild year. Ravens let Reed walk, trade Suggs and Boldin. Everyone who makes money goes to pay that salary.
Year one is obviously a down year, but rookies are playing and developing. Trust Ozzie to find new blood. The problem with Brees and Manning is they kill the cap every year. Dumping all that money in year one means the cap is manageable after that and there is roster flexibility. And if they can't get that new blood, Flacco's contract is easily tradeable
Also, Happy Ronald Reagan's Birthday everyone
I think it's got a few VERY iconic scenes that you need to see. The movie as a whole? Pretty decent I guess.

Men in Tights is pretty much unwatchable at this point imo. As a kid I couldnt get enough of it though.
Mel Brooks' worst movie.

I fully trust in Ozzie, he knows talent. I'd love to see us sign Flacco to a front heavy contract, but I just don't know where his head is at. He seems like he really might want to be the highest paid player in the NFL, and that's nuts. I'm pretty sure we already have the highest played non QB in Haloti Ngata, we don't need two players crushing our cap.
You say trade Suggs and Boldin, I say trade Rice. Big contract, sudden fumbling issues, Joe's new found lack of checking down, and most importantly, Bernard Pierce.
Next year is going to be very interesting for the Ravens, because the team we see on opening night is going to be radically different.
Edit: not to mention, if we rebuild and are terrible, we have a shot at Jedeveon Clowney

Wrong. WRONG!
Wasn't he nominated for an Oscar? I don't remember because I was like 7.
Any movie with Rickman, Morgan Freeman, AND Christian Slater cannot be fucked with.
Slater is so awful in that film. Both he and Costner just have really inconsistent accents. I'm a huge Costner fan but he's not at his best there

Godfather 1 and 2 are very good, though I don't obsess over them like a lot of people.
Princess Bride is a classic.
The Goonies doesn't hold up over time.
Prince of Thieves is junk, I'm sorry, but the combo of Costner and Christian Slater sucks all the air out of the universe.

I was mostly joking about Slater, but I did watch that movie roughly 5 times a week from 1991-1993. It was my childhood movie. I used to listen to the soundtrack before I played any sports to get hyped up. Which I realized, as I wrote that, is weird.
Well Trent Dilfer was garbage so it is easy to understand that. Joe Flacco is Joe Flacco so its all easy to understand that
Bullshit. I call bullshit.

I love Joe Flacco. I just love the Ravens more, and I fear what his contract will do.
Words I never thought I would hear from you. Put a ring on it, BL.

Come home, Flacco! We will treat you better. We won't call you names and then sweet talk you on your way out the door like Baltimore Larry. Flacco can come back to his home town and marry his high school sweetheart. Baltimore isn't the place for him.
