Apple,....Apple open your eyes.....
That's about as far as I can open them.
...there was definitely more to this than "just a movie" FC/PUZO are to brilliant to just "make a movie" ... c'mon We're discussiong a well put together novel that unfortunately was only made to a film......
Of course, there is much more to talk about in GF and GFII than in an average, run of the mill movie - otherwise the Gangster BB wouldn't be here. And I enjoy a good discussion as much as anybody.
But it IS just a movie and there IS such a thing as overexamining a scene, especially one that has one too many obvious flaws such as the Tahoe shooting. Sometimes it's just more fun to suspend reality, ignore the mistakes and unanswered questions...and get on with the rest of the story.
