Pesci?  He plays himself in every movie
I wouldn't say that to his face.

Most of the superstar actors play the same character every time.

Yep, that is why they got that specific part to start with.

Yup.  Worked well for John Wayne and when he had a moment of WTFWW (What the fook went wrong, LOL!), he played "Genghis Kahn" and was that ever a stoopid mistake.

John Wayne is the most overrated actor ever.

Try to watch the movie Siberia with Keanu Reeves.

He's plays a super boring version of John Wick. I couldn't even finish the damn movie...

Oh well, at least the Ivans speaked proper Russian for once ( as far as I can recall....)

Congratulations to Bob and his 3-month old :)



Deniro is a one trick pony. Way better actors out there.

Not even the best actor in his school of friends -

1) John Cazale
2) Pacino
3) Keitel
4) Pesci
5) Robert Duvall
6) Deniro

Really downhill for him the last 20 years.

Don't forget John Cazale, FIXED!  Deniro doesn't make the podium.

Most people always say this but it’s true, majority of the actors play the same type of characters/roles

Which is why comedians don’t last, you get tired of it. Adam Sandler, Will Ferrell, Jim Carrey, Ben Stiller. They all do the same thing over and over until it becomes unfunny.

Deniro was great from 76 to 96....there might have been a couple of movies after 96 but everything since then has been worse and worse.

One thing I liked about Bob is when he was a serious actor, we didn't know anything about him. He kept a very serious but private public persona. I think he even said that it's easier to pull of a good performance the LESS the audience knows about you.

But as his movie portfolio and his acting have nosedive into mediocrity,  his public life has been embarrassing for any self respecting person. But I'm sure Libs like him more now than ever

I agree......good post.......he  sux now, as does Pacino who fucking screams all of his lines....they`re not hungry anymore, but no one can day these weren`t great flicks by Deniro:

Raging Bull
Once Upon A Time In America
The Godfather
The Deerhunter
Cape Fear
Taxi Driver
Mean Streets
Cop Land (iffy )
Casino
A Bronx Tale
Goodfellas
Midnight Run

..............and a bunch of stuff that was mediocre at best or just plain garbage......but his early stuff is classic.

And King of Comedy.  He plays against type and does it well.

Jerry Lewis was really good, too.

De Niro wasn't getting the response he wanted from Lewis and went into a rant about how Hitler didn't do enough, or something like that.  Lewis said that he would never work with De Niro and/or Scorsese again.

You`re right,forgot about "King Of Comedy" good flick.

Lewis at his age was lucky to get any  work.......I  always heard Lewis was a tough guy to work with (hearsay of course)....Scorcese is one of the  best  with or without DeNiro......his new go to guy is Dicaprio.

Denzel shits on alot these guys. I will say that Daniel Day-Lewis is definitely an all time great. I put DeNiro and Pacino up there with Denzel. I prefer DeNiro over Pacino. Pacino is too animated for me.

That said, Denzel will be in Gladiator 2 in a key role. Can't wait to see that. He's also playing Hannibal. The AFRICAN King the nearly took down the Roman Empire. That is a must see.

I worked on this movie and was on stage when they filmed this scene. The crew was in awe on how intense it was and the great acting from all involved.

Cruise was great in that scene.

Deniro is a big white hater and appears to have the same sort of pathological hatred of his fellow white people that George Carlin had. A real sicko!

Denzell blows them all out of the water in acting, and in real life...
