I don't know if this was brought up here before, seeing as I don't come to this thread much... But, I heard that Coppola and Puzo were working on the Godfather Part Four script... But, then Puzo died and Coppola said he didn't want to continue without Puzo. We would'a had a part four if he didn't die! Oh, rats...

It was going to be based on Michael, Sonny, Connie, Fredo, and Tom's childhood... That's what I heard.

Hi,
They could always bring in David Chase from The Sopranos.

Paul

Naw... I don't think it'd be the same without Mario.

Hi,
I know but what can we do?

Paul

Piss and moan?

Thats about all we can do!

Ain't it a bitch?

Hi,
Why not get Martin Scorsese? After all Mario Puzo wrote the first book. GF2 was a combination of what Mario wrote in the first book and what was written for the second picture. Finally I am sure that he didn't write GF3.

Paul

Yeah, but... That's why the third didn't match the first two. I don't think it'd be the same without Mario!

Hi,
We could always hold a seance.

Paul

If you were my age, you'd find that "piss" and "moan" were one and the same.

BUT would you give 4 million just to take a piss without it hurting?

I don't think FFC would ever want to work on a Godfather story without Mario. To me it's 100% sure part IV is out of the question. Even if Paramount want it too happen, no actor/writer/diretor would want to participate. Even so, if they wanted too, Paramount f*cked up themselve in the mid-nineties being a pain in the Coppola-Puzo ass when negotiating a part IV (Puzo was writing the script in the early nineties, so it could have been filmed already by then)

Now Mario died It´s unlikely that there will be a The Godfather IV. If Coppola would continue without Puzo the movie woulden´t be as good as the other three parts. Maybe it would be better that Coppola woulden´t make a part IV.

nobody will have the essence mario had... it's like having the beatle without lennon, or without mccartney... it just wouldn't be as good... pointless... true?

I kinda think thats a poor example..... I don't really mind not having Godfather Part 4, i just want some more age old mafia movies coming out, none of this Anaylse That crap

yeah, i heard that on the bonus feature disk. i made i post on that in the part 4 section

I wouldnt like a part 4.
The goodfather is a classic.
If we come back to it years and years after even the last installment was done its gonna b differnt and mayb even ruin the name.
I think they went as far with it as they could.
Its time to let go of the godfather, its completed and a damn good film, i mean wats gonna happen in there childhood??
we need a new mafia movie instaid on prt 4.

although nuffin will compare to the godfather

You said the same thing three times in arow and you couldnt spell The Godfather right once!

Don't be a "Wiseguy"

Part IV is about The 1930's and the 1980's

Simple as that.

Well kept secret...Until Now...Turnbull's Age is higher than his post count!

i heard that coppola agreed to write the script for GF4 with a dude whose name i forgot. but i do remember that the name sounded italian.
do dont get your hopes down, we might still have a GF4 coming out pretty soon...

Personally speaking, I'd rather see a GOOD adaptation of Lorenzo Calcatera's ('scuze the spellin') GANGSTER than watching a GF4.

Looking at recent movies, I don't think that any existing actor (those who had participated in the trilogy) can match their performances in the previous parts [of course I only mean the good actors].

I heard Paramont & random House publishers are conducting a serach as we speak for someone to write GF IV. AS to the question of who would direct it? Did FFC say he wouldn't do another one?

Yet again he was pretty much against doing a third film. Who knows?!

I agree start the pissing and moaning!

NOW!!!!!

If anyone in the world is capable of a great performance, it is Al Pacino. Seeing as Michael is dead, he would be useless...unless he is in flashback sequences. If GF 4 is made, I hope to God he has some parts - HE IS THE GODFATHER!

Andy Garcia, who would be the star, is also a fine actor (watch Ocean's Eleven to see his best Michael Corleone impression).

As far as the "Young Sonny" rumors concerning DiCaprio, screw them. Have James Caan's son play the part. He may not have had a serious role yet, but he'd be believable as Santino.
