What do you think it's about, GFIV

There will not be another Godfather like Godfather 2, it was a great idea and it was great then. If they put up another movie like the second one it will be like GFIII. Puting Michael's death in the end did not help there being a fourth one, because everyone wants to know what happened in the 80s and most of the 90s, they on't have that though. That's my opinion

We have touched on this before in another thread. There is actually plenty of scope for a forth Godfather film. As FFC says in the commentry at the end of GF3, he and Puzo had spoken about the 4th film and had a few ideas.

There were 17 years between the opera scene in GF3 and Michaels death. Plenty of time for a movie there. And the movie would also feature the period between GF2 (Old bits) and GF1.

I suggest you read my transcript of FFC's commentry here.

Anyway, without Puzo, a fourth GDF is useless i think.

Even if at the end of the GF3's commentary, Coppolla say some good ideas about the prequel about how Sonny got involved, and in the mean time, Vicent Mancini take the biz... i would not be happy about another one being made.

I couldn't give a shit about what Vincent does in the 80's and 90's. The only things I care about POST-GF3, are what Anthony does, what happened to grace,a nd Mario's angel about Neri opening the blinds and killing the 1958 hitmen, adn Connie blackmailing him into killing Mike.

I'm concerned about the 30's, 60's, and 70's!

Those are really Godfather! Duvall's 72, pacino's 62, they COULD still pull of Mike and Tom at ages 50/60, but for too much longer! Andy Garcia will be acting for years to come, they can make a movie with him 10 years from now for all I care!

Talia Shire might even be under 50! Richard Bright would be necesarry for Neri in the 60's, he could play a YOUNGER Neri than he did in Gf3 (lose weight, hair die, he could play 45)

Spinell died (Someone else could play 50 year old Cicci, short part, Cicci gets whacked early in the movie) I don't know about Caridi, but Aiello is just aLITTLE too old to play Tony Rosato, unless he disappears for 10 years and comes in at the END of the film!) Those are the only real original actors you need! Toss ina james Caan, Joe Mantegna, etc. for new characters, and the 60's and 70's are great!

As for the 30's. DeNiro can play 35-53 Year old Vito! But not for MUCH longer! Sivero could still play Genco, Kirby could play Clemenza, Abrea could play Tessio, throw in Gianni Russo as a rival Don, who knows. Casting for that era shouldn't be TOO hard. Except for Luca Brasi. Please NOT Dirk from Last Don 2!0

As for GF-less Puzo.....NEWSFLASH...Puzo;s written a script. If you're REALLY good friends with FFC, DeNiro, or Garcia you COULD peak at it!

Puzo wrote several, but his final one was the basis of GF3, until FFC changed everything! Puzo kept the ideas FFC took out, and added them into his GF4 script (Grace Hamilton & Vincent Mancini, who REALLY killed the hitmen and opened the curtains!). He also had written the script for the 30's, based on the book, but he added in Joe Masseria who was NOT in the book. And enhanced the Castellamarre War, and Irish War to thicken the story. We've got tons of Luca Brasi to look forward too!
