Egyptian pyramids wouldn't be a tribute to slavery as they weren't built by slaves. They were built by skilled contractors.
reps
In all honesty though, Goodfellas, GFII, Forrest Gump, Shawshank, GF I
Prob. my all time top five...
okay, now I'll step back from the thread highjack cliff... I promise.

It's about gangsters, not Italians.
Those are some damn good flicks ...
As for Goodfellas and its portrait of Italians, Henry and Jimmy are half-Irish, so ... meh. It's about gangsters, not Italians.
Did Cack just go Che on that quote?? Can I take my previous reps back??
Just the good half - Henry Hill
*Someone will get it.
Good ole, GFII...
Easily one of my top three movies ever.... maybe my all-time fav.
Fredo goes from sleeping with two cocktail waitresses to sleeping with fish... and in between he stares at Superman...
True story: My last serious girlfriend before I met my wife was Mexican, she was over for dinner one night and GFII was on TBS or something like that… during one of those scenes that aren’t very flattering to the humanity of the Italian people and my dad says out of nowhere, with my GF sitting right next to him… “Fvking Italians man… they’re nothing but Mediterranean Mexicans”
….

Now we bring Jews into this?? The thread is officially a tire fire...
I wasn't talking about Jews lol
The quote I copied said the characters were Half Irish and Half Italian, so it wasn't about Italians.
The movie quote is when Henry talks about the "good half" of his lineage.
NO.
The movie quote is from when Henry is asked about being 'half Jewish,' which he is not, by his future mother in law who is a hard core Jew... he responds with...
"Only the Good Half."
I know my Goodfellas dawg...

And you ended it with "someone will get it"
and I took it.

Carl Sagan was a marijuana smoker and thus his thoughts on life are polluted with the devil's weed and can't be taken seriously. :smilewink
So he was a head with his head in the cosmic clouds???
Far out, man ... billions and billions of buds!!!
Whoooaa have you ever looked at the word "Ok"
Tilt your head to the left... it's a little guy. Hey little fella how ya doing?
The universe just blows my mind sometimes maaaan
The Italian side of my family never made a big deal about Columbus Day. Pope John 23rd and Frank Sinatra were bigger cultural heroes for us.
If only we could rid of the damned, dirty, Italians and their token holidays... that dot would be more livable...
The range of motion in my aging neck ain't what it used to be, so I tilted my monitor to the right. I still didn't see no "little guy." I guess my head just wasn't in the right place.
Nonetheless, grazing in the grass is a gas – baby I can dig it ...
Words are flying out like endless rain into a paper cup, they slither wildly as they slip away across the universe ...
