Are organised crime gangs even relevant today, why waste so much talent on a movie that is obviously going to bomb?

The manlets have gone too far this time.

>Are organised crime gangs even relevant today

not Irish and Italian ones but making movies about Hispanic and black gangsters is not PC.

What the fuck is going on with Pacinos legs?

Jews as well, they ran huge sex slave operations out of the old communist countries in Europe in the 90's. It's still going n, but not as big.

can someone fix pachinos legs

I thought that was Cirian Hinds

I thought it was some random dude. I had to look it up on Wikipedia to make sure the user isn't bullshitting and it's actually him.

mexican cartels have pretty much taken over just about everything. the american mafia is still around but they mainly deal in white collar crime now

Who gives a shit whether it's going to bomb. It's a passion project for Scorsese and De Niro.

Lol, why does Pacino get a pass for doing basically the same thing?

when the fuck ever is this pos going to release?

feels like this picture is half a decade old already

HEY DONNY

are these shoes medical or is he really that insecure about being a manlet? joe pesci never wore this gay shit and he was the KING of manlets.

They’re so he appears taller than some of the other actors on camera because the character he’s playing was huge IRL

Literally nothing to do with insecurity, all these photos are from a movie set

the character he plays in the movie was a tall irish guy who supposedly killed jimmy hoffa who is protrayed by al pachino

it's not Al anymore. it's Dunk

thanks for clearing this up. i thought some of these pics were from paparazzi taking pics of him. makes a lot more sense.

Why would a bunch of dego wops care about Irish mobsters?

Pacino pretty much raises the level of anything he's in because he's a great actor and he still tries. De Niro gave up a long time ago, just like Brando did.

frank sheridan worked for the mafia family who were dealing with jimmy hoffa

Yeah, I'm not buying this. He's atrocious in Simone, 88 Minutes, Gigli, The Recruit, Righteous Kill, Stand-Up Guys, Hangman, etc... Some good roles on TV doesn't change that.

De Niro's not bad in the O. Russell films or Stardust or Being Flynn or even that recent Nancy Myers movie. He's not as flashy as Pacino, so it's easy to say that he's not trying but I don't think his quality to dreck ratio is any worse after the 2000s.

Not at street level, because they're animals. They're not gentlemen with a code and a few mad dogs, the cartels and black gangs are animals, they do the most horrible shit to people, they don't give a shit about going to jail or sending their friends to jail, they do fucked up shit for initiations, they're just fucking animals. Hard to make a movie about that that hits home, because it will either be too disturbing and be called sensationalist and racist and never reach much of an audience, or it will be too soft and and attempt to humanize the subjects by leaving the worst of their atrocities out of the story, and make it more of a "failure of American social policy and law enforcement" movie.

>le sicilian mafia chivalry

Dude criminals are criminals, just because you dress it up with "family values" and "honor" doesn't make it any different, and when the chips were down all of those sicilian mafia guys with their "family values" turned on each other. They're no different.
