Pardon the Bill Cosby plug here, but Let’s Do it Again is one of my all time fave comedies. Great to see Sidney in a comedy role. Slightly before our time but Sid and Bill were great and the film still holds up.

Curtis mayfield with the soundtrack

Biggie smalls character name would later be adopted by the late rapper

Kansas City Mack played by John Amos (Mr McDowell from coming to America)

Ossie Davis


RIP to Sidney. The Denzel before Denzel

Wild Bill fits were on point back in the day though, not gonna lie.

True, but I don’t think she was THAT bad as the newbie Bella

Anya Taylor Joy>

Hyped to see her performance in The Northman

 

[Master Zik]

I don't dislike Chalamet at all but I can't think of any movie where he impressed me.

He was good in Call Me By Your Name but it wasn't any acting tour de force.

Chalamet definitely was the first name to come to mind.

Saoirse Ronan

Lucas Hedges
Hailee Steinfeld
Florence Pugh
Zendaya
Danny Kaluuya

Kelvin Harrison Jr.
John Boyega

I don't dislike Chalamet at all but I can't think of any movie where he impressed me.

Thought he was good it Lady Bird, The King and Little Women.

Most of these actor and actresses are young up and comers though and many don't have that signature shining performance. All have a ton of potential and are 30>

[dontsteponmyshoes]

First movie I'm watching when I get my video wall complete

Almost there gotta adjust the top left and buy the last tv not not too shabby for my first try at this can't wait word to Bart Scott

 

[reconic supreme]

Chalamet was such a weirdo in Lady Bird haha

to me, that's his best role so far

Do I give credit to the 12-year-old for the best acting performance of her career???????

 

[reconic supreme]

Casino (1995) - I feel like post-Goodfellas, Scorsese wanted to de-glorify the mob life with this and later on with The Irishmen.

It all ends in ****.

Anyways, this is the movie I watched the most out of his filmography as a teen. It was the one shown the most on cable (I had Starz lol)

So I had a blast with this. It still holds up quite well and as an older adult I noticed how all the characters lay out their cards to one another early on which makes their downfall even more tragic/hilarious.

Gun to my head I think I like this more then The Irishman but I haven't watched it in awhile, while with Casino I see it once/twice every year.

 

[MajinZuub]

I'm easily taking Casino over Irishman

 

[youngwolf]

Co-sign everyone but Steinfeld, who sucks.

I’d also add Haley Lu Richardson to the list.
