Put up references to GF movies you've seen in a book movie or TV show..I know there's a lot out there.
Anyways, apart from the apparent new ones,(Like in Analyze this and Zoolander) the one that sticks in my mind is from that TV show, Jack and Jill. You know, with Amanda Peet?
Anyways someone was receiving a message on her machine, from a geek asking her out to a party- it was like this-
"Hey Audrey, let's go to this reeeaaally cool pary my friend Dave's throwing, y'know, we all have to dress up as our favorite character from GF, i was thinking I could be Michael and you could be Kay although i'd understand if you wanted to be Connie, they say she's a more interesting characters, like in the sequel blah blah blip geek trash fanboy slurrr"

there's a topic on "GF references on Seinfeld" out there

There are tons:

The Freshman (Bruno Kirby working for Marlon Brando, ne1?)
City Slickers 2 (again I ask, y wuz Bruno Kirby in CS1 and not 2, he could've had fun doin Clemenza lines with Jon Lovitz's character with the obsession)
Robin Hood: Men in Tights
You've Got Mail

and I know there are a bunch in TV shows, but none come to mind

movie: Set it Off....playing the Godmother or something

tv-show: Suddenly Susan (brief epilogue to an episode, it's the blonde girl, but not Brooke Shields) behind a desk

I once saw a funny episode of Married With Children that had some GF references. Al Bundy's daughter was dating a mayor or an alderman, i don't remember which one. But what happens in this episode is that Al thinks he can become a powerful man through his daughter's affair. So he decides to become the "Godfather" in his neighborhood. In one scene, he walks down the stairs dressed like the Godfather while the love theme from the soundtrack is played in the background. I think his neighbors (Marcy and her man) came to his house for a favor and they both kissed his hand. The funny part was when he started talking like the old Vito with a raspy voice. He used a few lines from the movie including, "Some day, and that day may never come, I'll call upon you to do a service for me." LOL. Yeah i remember laughing so hard when i heard that. It was a good episode.

On the "In-Laws" tonight,Farina made a ton of Godfather references.

The Simpsons
Animaniacs
The Pepsi Cola Commercials
SNL-President Bush Sr. w/a squirtgun

The Freshman {/QUOTE]

Are you thinking of the three pigeons in ANAMANIACS? The ones with the Brando, DeVito, and Pesci voices? Hilarious I always figures that since it's a Spielberg production, those guys might be doing the actual voices.

FRESHMAN is great also. So many scenes where they do a take-off on GF.

Let me add the movie MAFIA to your list. Hilarious

I don't remember a Godfather Animaniacs, but I do remember an episode called "Goodfeathers". It was great.

I wonder why the Sporanos find it hilarious when a guy does an impression of Michael. I mean those guys laugh their calories off.
Oh, and I found it funny how Deniro played Fredo! in analyze this anyways. But i think it's weird when they spoof a movie starring Deniro, when Deniro is a character in the movie itself. Get what I mean?

What was the simpsons spoof like, I never did see that.. I did see one though where Homer and Marge are in a Sauna in towels and a Mafia guy offscreen in an italian accent is urging tem to get naked.

here is an excerpt from an episode guide that started it all for Fat Tony

39. Bart the Murderer

Bart awakes in a good mood because he is going on a field trip to a chocolate factory. His day quickly takes a turn for the worst though and it really gets bad when he forgets his permission slip. He has to stay at school licking stamps for Principal Skinner. He rides his skateboard home and stumbles into an Italian gangster's operation. The leader, Fat Tony immediately takes a shine to him. He hires Bart to be his errand boy and Bart soon figures out that they are crooks. Bart becomes a gangster, and when Skinner gives him problems, Fat Tony goes to have a little talk with Skinner. Later that same day, Skinner vanishes and Bart thinks that Tony has killed him. Bart goes on trial as an adult for ordering them to kill Skinner. They act as though he were their capo. Just before Bart's sentence, Skinner waltzes into the courtroom. He tells about how an old stack of newspapers had trapped him in his home. Bart goes free and parts ways with Fat Tony, and then he watches the FOX made-for-TV movie about his life.


Joe Mantegna is the voice of Fat Tony and his crew has been a recurring character in the Simpsons ever since.

There's also the Don for Fat Tony's crew from Italy. In that episode when Bart doesn't make it to fix them his special drink one of the wiseguys fixes one that The Don hates and gives Fat Tony the Kiss of Death from this horrendous disrespect. He also goes after Krusty the Clown for money "No, I cant'a do'it, you're too a'funny, it would be a sin." and asks him to do a bike trick. In the animaniacs, you got the Goodfeathers from Goodfellas and The Godpigeon who is completely uncomprehendable. There was also this gag where the Warner Bros. wouldn't stay out of this guy who looked like Don Corleone's Italion restuarant and when they kept on calling him "Doc" or something he would constantly repeat "Call me 'Godfather!'"

WHERE!? I remember in 1 of the show's Kramer was made a Godfather & they played the music as he shut his door & you could see a married couple kissing his hand.

That's the one -- and I think there were a few different episodes. The GF reference was one of the pigeons had the voice of Don Corleone.

Did anyone see Rugrats in Paris? In the beginning, they opened with the Godfather's scene with Bonesara - Angelica playing the 'Bobfather' and Chuckie taking the role of Bonesara. Chuckie asks for a mother, if I'm correct. It also ends with the same scene.

If anyone ever get ahold of Mad Magazine vamping the godfather and Godfather II is perhaps the most funniest comic you will ever read.

Best in Show movie
"I'm German Irish"
"Oh, just like Tom Hagen"

it's on this forum category, I think... it was started a week ago or something

The three pigeons were called Pesco(Pesci), Bobby(DeNiro) and Squit(Liotta). The Godpigeon was Brando. Animaniacs was so not aimed at kids.

"You squawking at me?"

has anyone seen "Sabrina" (starring Harrison Ford, Greg Kinnear, and Julia Ormond), that 90's remake of the Audrey Hepburn classic? there's a dinner scene there between the two families (Greg Kinnear and Lauren Holly were engaged), and the Lauren Holly's father says, "May your first child be a masculine child.", and Harrison Ford frowns, not understanding. Angie Dickinson, Lauren Holly's mother, says, "it's from Serpico.".

i've always wondered why she said it was from Serpico. or was Angie Dickinson's character in this movie really a ditz?

incidentally, i've never seen "Serpico".

Do you know if those were the actual voices of the actors? They're all so imitatable, after all. But I always thought because of Spielberg, it actually was those four guys

I will bet good money that the Brando voice is imatation. I don't think he would lend himself to a cartoon for anything under $15 million.

Its not a direct quote, but in Spiderman, the green globin wanted Spiderman to join forces. Spiderman refused, he said, "I offer you friendship, and you spit in my face!"

Not sure if this has already been posted, but wasn't there a GF reference in the original Airplane movie, delivered by Lloyd Bridges, if memory serves me??

Sanza, that's one of my favorite movies and I don't remember any, but I could be wrong, do you know about where in the movie it was, or what sort of reference it was.

I could be wrong matresses and it may be one of the follow-ups as I haven't seen the movie in years. But I seem to remember the scene where Bridges says things like "It looks like I picked the wrong week to give up smoking etc..." he makes some reference to "Barzini and the heads of the five families"...or did I imagine it in my youth. I was drinking heavily at that stage

I can't find the Seinfeld thread, but I remember one where he's complaining about Newman coming into his apartment, and he says "He's here. In my home! Where I play with my toys!". Barely caught that one.

Just saw this today on DVD:

In A TV special "I'm telling you for the last time", it opens up in a cementary where Jerry Seinfeld is burying and saying goodbye to his jokes. At the end of the burial Rich Little walks up to Jerry and whisper he has set up a meeting with Alan King, in his territory where it would be safe. Jerry then made a face, knowing what that meant.

That's from Hot Shots, the Top Gun parody. Bridges says this at the funeral for pilot Dead Meat.

Hot Shots director Jim Abrahams worked with the Zuckers on Airplane. These guys are comedy geniuses, IMHO. But keep in mind that I haven't seen Jane Austen's Mafia.

Seinfeld & I just saw a Simpsons episode that was like the Sopranos. Also, anyone know what area code is 636 or where Interstate 95 is? It was in the Simpsons episode!
