Should Luca be older than Tucci? Trying to recall from the book, was he supposed to have a very long history with the Don?
All in all a fine list. When I try to think in my mind as to who should play what, I think of a lot of guys who would pull off the soul of the character, but lack the requisite ethnicity. If the Godfather became a play that was preformed like Shakespeare you could see it in different settings, times, genders and ethnicity, and it would be most interesting. I wouldn't mind seeing it re-imagined as a Samurai or Medieval film? I'm not of the mind as many are that a re-make of a classic ruins the original.
I think the rate is something like three bananas equals one pineapple equals 4,179 pesos. But it depends on whether they're Chiquita bananas or Dole bananas and I'm sure El Nino plays into it somehow too.
There's a little problem with this list, and that's the fact that they are all reletivly well known. In the origenal, FFC went the Orson Welles method of hiring only a couple well established film actors and used local stage actors for the rest which allowed the audience to more fully identify the characters rather than simply identifying the actors. The only really well known actor they had was Marlon Brando, and he was considered to be a little over the hill.
By the way, Jason, BET does not stand for Black Entertainment Television. It stands for Black EVIL Television. It's a TV station that is actively trying to destroy African Americans.

Yeah I'm with you there. The reason Sopranos worked so well for me at the time was that I hadn't seen them in anything else. OK it turned out I had upon rewatching stuff, but never noticed them.
Of course, NOW when I see them, all I see are gangsters. I want to say "Look out Bruce Springsteen!! That's Sil playing guitar in your band!!"

So, I took a trip out today in Costa Rica to see some wildlife, and returned via a banana plantation and packing facility. My taxi driver's accent was just like Omar's.
