              I know, I know ... we're in different time zones - gotta catch me in work mode, dude!

              I'll be up around 11am PST ... catch me on ICQ if that works for you and we'll nail it down!

              I AM INTERESTED !!!

                Analyze This sucked (or at least wasn't very good) and really wasn't much of a gangster movie.

                The Whole Nine Yards was an amusing movie but also not much of a gangster flick. If you're going to include this movie you may as well include My Blue Heaven and The Godson.

                I don't care for Menace II Society or Reservoir Dogs. I know that's almost sacrilege because everyone thinks Reservoir Dogs was so great but I didn't care for it. In fairness, I only saw it once. I plan to pop it in the VCR for a second viewing some day.

                I would replace some of those with movies like Lock, Stock and Two Smoking Barrels and possibly even Snatch, although Snatch is more of a heist movie than a gangster movie.

                I am sure I could think of a lot more good gangster movies if I gave it some thought.

                    I was trying to hit 20, and the last 3 were all comedies with a Gangster "element" that fit the bill. Analyze This was definately a gangster movie though ... and fuckin' funny! DeNiro is THE SHIT!!!



                    No doubt - Lock, Stock, and Two Smoking Barrels was a great movie as well as Snatch!!!

                          Speaking of DeNiro Midnight Run Was A Great Movie.
                          Somewhat gangster related.

                            It's pushing things a bit to call that a gangster movie but it was a great picture. The whole bit with Charles Grodin being afraid to fly is priceless and the look Grodin's character gives DeNiro's character when they almost run head-on into that truck makes me just about wet my pants every time. Two thumbs up for Midnight Run.

                            It's weird that Grodin went on to be a stodgy old man who hosts late-night talk shows. He's awesome in comedic roles.

                                          I still have that book. I read it every year or two. Breslin's characters are great. I often find myself thinking of Big Jelly because he's big and lecherous, just like me

                                              Shit , make your own list!!!

                                              LOL



                                              Talking about OLD Gangster flicks ... you should see "Angels whith Dirty Faces" with James Cagney!!!

                                              THAT's a classic!



                                              BTW - I'm thinking about doing New Years up in San Fran ... making arrangements with my lady to stay at THE CLIFT coming up a couple of days before and staying until the 2nd - we should hook up, dude!

                                                                                  It was the Wachoawski Bros. before Matrix. Also it has Gina Gershon and Jennifer Tilly doing the squelchy together, so that's a plus.

                                                                                  It's a combo gangster/Film Noir with lesbians. Well crafted.
