Did anyone see Godfather 3 any one of the about 50
times it was on amc (i think it was this one)this week?

Sophia Coppola ruined what could have been a decent movie.

1. I didn't see it this week, but...
yeah, how about her death scene? She gots shot through the gut -- a horrendously agonizing place to get capped, by all accounts -- and in a monotone voice says, "Daddy?" and then dies. I mean, she even has the same voice she has used throughout the film in conversation.

Ah well. No one ever accused Francis Ford Coppola of being humble. I doubt he could even see his daughter's awfulness through the opaque haze of hubris.

2. It sucks compared to the rest, but it's decent.
I'm just sick of all the Godfather movies now. They play them soooo much on AMC.

3. They are on so much
I own them on dvd and will still watch them on tv if a particularily good scene comes up.

I have some friends who have never seen three and I have offered to have them over for a party and watch it. Maybe a good bowl of pasta, a salad, some red wine.

4. Yeah she came close to making that a lost cause...
Still not a bad movie...not up to the quality of its predessors, but decent enough

6. She also ruined Virgin Suicides and Lost In Translation
As far as I'm concerned too.

9. No her father ruined it by casting her...
You know she's bad when she gets killed at the end and her best acting moment is playing a corpse...
