Good Lord....you guys still talking about actors in this thread?  Every time I see a new post, I think something towards the topic is actually being discussed.

 

 

Welcome to Trump's America, snowflake cuck social justice warrior. Go cry in your Obummer pillow.

Remake...and not even sniffing as cool as the original.

 

Would you put Denzel Washington in the same "generation" as Bobby D?  If so, Washington is probably also more accomplished.  

 

The gif was more directed at the post above it.

 

Hmmm that's a good question though. I probably wouldn't. De Niro's first film was in 1965, Denzel's first was in 1981. That's a bit of a gap. I'm not sure Denzel's had any films or roles as good as Godfather Part II, Goodfellas, Casino, Taxi Driver or Raging Bull. Just my opinion though.

Really good call on Taxi Driver...great movie!

 

Goodfellas, in my opinion, was just dominated by Joey P.  Now, Bronx Tale was really underrated in my mind but I think that was dominated by Chaz but I think De Niro directed it so there is something to be said for that.

 

Denzel...Glory was amazing and Training Day was so wonderfully overacted that it worked perfectly.  Remember the Titans is awesome.  But you might be right, there is a decent gap.

 

Now, for me, when I think Godfather(s) I really never think of Bob all that much.  I think, Al, Marlon and then Bob.

 

You are making a good argument, that is for sure.

Denzel is for sure amazing in his own right. Generationally I'd probably put him with Hanks or Cruise.

Wow...that is interesting because talk about 3 really different types of actors with a ton of different roles.

 

Cruise sort of gets a bad rap/rep but I like his movies.  Hanks pretty much dominated movies for about 10 years.  What about Ford, you could toss him in this era, couldn't you?

 

I still think that Sly should be "up there" I mean...Rocky wins an oscar, two of the biggest franchise films ever in Rocky and Rambo...Nominated, I think, 3 times overall...I think he gets left out a lot of times because of some of the dumb/popcorn movies but still...
