hahaha that wouldve been about 1000000000000000000% better if it featured pacino as the devil offering them the soul of their dead child

I loved the Al Pacino soundboard that was on the net years and years ago because almost all of the lines were from Glengarry Glen Ross (instead of something more obvious like Scent Of A Woman or Scarface), and there were a bunch of hilarious mp3s of prank calls people did to a Cracker Barrell with it. I didn't even see GGR until years later, consequently I can't even see Al Pacino anymore without thinking of him yelling "you FAIRY, you COMPANY MAN" to some hapless Cracker Barrell employee.

Actually, the correct emphasis on that line is, "YOU fairy."

"YOU CAN'T FIGHT CITY HALL!!!"

dog day afternoon because he is not al pacino

― deeznuts, Friday, 6 April 2007 20:49 (seventeen years ago) link

believe it or not, i did NOT vote scarface.

― Eisbaer, Friday, 6 April 2007 20:49 (seventeen years ago) link

so forgive me a retarded question but theres no way to see the votes until the poll ends?

― deeznuts, Friday, 6 April 2007 20:55 (seventeen years ago) link

i mean i guess that makes a lot of sense but i am something of a message board expert & in my experience usually the results are live

― deeznuts, Friday, 6 April 2007 20:56 (seventeen years ago) link

I'm sorry, I can't ever get past the "Push It to the Limit" sequence in Scarface without laughing. Still a good movie, but not the one I checked off up there.

HEllO I AM ANAL PACINO

― gabbneb, Friday, 6 April 2007 21:02 (seventeen years ago) link

i have seen too many of this movies

― gabbneb, Friday, 6 April 2007 21:59 (seventeen years ago) link

b/w scarface having become "iconic" -- read, OVERPLAYED and INESCAPABLE -- not to mention the fact that pacino really is quite ridiculous in that film (haha, where to paraphrase something mark s. once said about him -- that pacino had become "high-octane rubbish") -- it's not surprising that some aren't going to vote for it.

― Eisbaer, Friday, 6 April 2007 22:10 (seventeen years ago) link

lemme rephrase somewhat -- scarface is kinda where pacino really began his high-octane schtick in earnest.

― Eisbaer, Friday, 6 April 2007 22:15 (seventeen years ago) link

which is actually is exactly what makes it a respectable vote despite my earlier post!

― deeznuts, Friday, 6 April 2007 22:18 (seventeen years ago) link

Great ass!

So good in Raging Bull.

― aimurchie, Friday, 6 April 2007 23:39 (seventeen years ago) link

Ethan totally OTM abt Devil's Advocate.

It ate my other post. Maybe I'm not allowed to agree with him :/

― Trayce, Friday, 6 April 2007 23:42 (seventeen years ago) link

But even better in The 400 Blows.

and what would you believe i have performed the "i am fan of man" monologue live on stage more than once

― s1ocki, Saturday, 7 April 2007 00:17 (seventeen years ago) link

Pls to tell me that is true!!

― Trayce, Saturday, 7 April 2007 01:55 (seventeen years ago) link

i've seen all those movies and for me it's really between godfather/serpico/dog day. it's tough.

― scott seward, Saturday, 7 April 2007 01:58 (seventeen years ago) link

it is true.

― s1ocki, Saturday, 7 April 2007 16:32 (seventeen years ago) link

― s1ocki, Saturday, 7 April 2007 20:15 (seventeen years ago) link

morbs, i considered combining the films but thought better of it due to past vitriolic fights on previous pacino threads regarding the merits of the various episodes. meh.

also the poll is missing gigli for a reason which is that i refuse to acknowledge the existence of that movie.

― the schef (adam schefter ha ha), Sunday, 8 April 2007 17:49 (seventeen years ago) link

it's "dead-tech, post-modernistic house".

wtf does 'dead-tech' even mean?

nb 'GREAT ASS' wins.

OMG that's right -- i'd forgotten that al was in that one ...

― Eisbaer, Sunday, 8 April 2007 19:43 (seventeen years ago) link

The best film missing from that list is Looking for Richard, I suspect.

― Dr Morbius, Monday, 9 April 2007 16:48 (seventeen years ago) link

ooh yeah that one slipped my mind

― the schef (adam schefter ha ha), Monday, 9 April 2007 16:57 (seventeen years ago) link

lol @ "dead tech"

― and what, Monday, 9 April 2007 17:29 (seventeen years ago) link

hmmm, Dick Tracy is the only one I've seen! Dude needs to be in more teen comedies, maybe he could be a mafia teacher in the hood, who has to coach a girls softball team, with hilarious results? I'd see that!

I was flipping through a sale rack of DVDs and came across this from 2014:

https://www.imdb.com/title/tt1568343/?ref_=nm_flmg_t_14_act

Never heard of it. Pacino, Greta Gerwig, Barry Levinson, Buck Henry...no doubt terrible. It was $5, and I did consider buying it for the sheer weirdness of its existence (and for the brilliantly awkward title, too); didn't, then had second thoughts, then spent the next five minutes trying to find it again and couldn't. Which was pretty weird in itself--there were only about 100 DVDs on the rack.

― clemenza, Friday, 3 May 2024 21:47 (six months ago) link

(The title is not Levinson's--Philip Roth! I have just personally been subjected to the humbling.)
