This is about our choice. I perceived that we have many Michaels, Vitos, some Toms... Not a single DonFredoCorleone... Why and what we prefer? The poll question is: What member of Corleone family did you choose (or would choose hypotetically, if your own nick is neutral) to represent yourself on the board? And - why?

My username is kind of a contradiction. On one hand, I've got the name of one of the worst films (and film characters) I've ever seen, on both sides of "DoN_CoRLeOnE". It kinda symbolizes that no matter how much sh*t is out there, and no matter how big a crowd there is in film, The Godfather will never get lost in that crowd of sh*t, if any of that makes any sense.
BTW, I voted Vito.

i'd probably want to go with something like vito corleone, or the godfather. lol, and i know the latter is corny.

Searching the good ol' directory reveals the following numbers w/ such characters names in them: 4 - Connie 5 - Carmella/Carmela 7 - Rocco 8 - Paulie 9 - Fredo 9 - Carlo 16 - Neri 17 - Sonny 18 - Santino 18 - Luca 31 - Michael 32 - Tom (few are for Tom Hagan, though) 36 - Vito 45 - include "Montana" 55 - Tony 60 - include "Don" 60 - include "Corleone"
I studied Italian for 2 semesters. Not once was a "C" pronounced as a "G", and never was a trailing "I" ignored! And I'm from Jersey!  lol Whaddaya want me to do? Whack a guy? Off a guy? Whack off a guy? --Peter Griffin My DVDs | Facebook | Godfather Filming Locations

i'm one of the sixty Dons. Jeaz that's a lot of Don's we should have like a meeting of the Don's thread as a joke or something.
When some one needs to be whacked you call Don Leporleone, When some one needs to be paid off you call Don Leporeloene, When some one needs protection you call Don Leporeleone.... But when you buy canolis from the bakery you don't share them with Don Leporeleone, what have I ever done to make you treat me so disrespectfully

I would have to go with Sonny, since Tessio isn't one of the above choices.
Sal: "Tom, can you get me off the hook? For old times' sake?"

Originally posted by Lavinia from Italy: I would choose Apollonia, because of that speechless love scene with Al, if you know what I mean. We know.  When Afs said "Don't ask why" and showed her little tongue, I thought immediately of her imaginin herself instead of Simonetta in that scene, and Al quietly lets the dress down and touches her face sooo gently and kisses her - and - I know what you girls are doing now, yes. Don't tell me I'm wrong. :p Originally posted by The Iceman: Tough choice between Micheal & Tony Montana. But I ultimately chose Tony Montana. I fact, you could chose them both. I didn't want to make anyone suffer. BTW, my own choice was Michael. Just because he is the most strong and smart of them all. He is a winner by nature. But it would be like decieving you all about my sex, so I registered under a perfectly neutral one.

I don't want realism. I want magic! Yes, yes, magic. I try to give that to people. I do misrepresent things. I don't tell the truth. I tell what ought to be truth (Blanche/A streetcar named desire)
