I know we have a couple of movies threads going so why stop? 🙂
I love both of these movies very much but if I had to pick one over the other I would have to go with GF II. I think Vito's story is so interesting and Fredo's betrayal was so powerful. I also think that's when both De Niro and Pacino were both at the top of their game.

'Nuff said.
Forget the movies. Has anyone read the new The Godfather Returns book by Mark Winegardener? It is... BY FAR.... the WORST book I've ever read in my entire life. I've never even seen a movie I hated as much as this book. There are literally almost a dozen sex scenes, and (this isn't a big revelation or anything), Fredo turns out to be a homosexual. It is so, so, SO freakin' awful. I've literally thrown the book across the room probably five times now just out of frustration of what has happened to what started out as one of the greatest stories ever told. This guy has completely killed it. Completely. The Godfather 3 was The Godfather 2 compared to this freakin' thing.
Anyways though, I could never pick which movie I liked more. They both are brilliant. The best actors working together with one of the greatest directors ever on an adaptation from one of the greatest authors ever..... 😀
