I'm excited. I would love to see a Godfather IV but...enough already? They made to classics then made an aweful one. Couldn't they leave it at that? See that they've accomplished 2 of the finest films in motion picture history, then they decide to make a new one - yes, it could work, but they would have to make it better than III, and they would have to have DeNiro as Vito Corleone. Whatever happens, I sure as hell will pay my tickets to see Part IV, but it's still worrisome that the Corleone legacy could be ruined...
-Penguin Sadly, these movie studios don't have that same analysis of thinking. The way the see it, a new movie with the legendary Godfather label attached to it would be a huge money-maker. And they're absolutely right. Even if their is noone from the original working on it and even if it is a medicore film, many of us hardcore fans will be the first waiting in line.

I agree that if GFIV does come into development that the story should definitely revolve around the character of Sonny. I have always been fascinated by Sonny and feel his influence on the Corleone family was undermined in the previous movies, but hinted at by the fact that they made his illigitimate son the new Godfater in GFIII. However, we must remember that if they do a story about him, they will have to reflect up until he died which means it will come across the same time as the first movie. When that happens they will have to use different characters to play michael, fredo, vito, etc. and I dont know how well any of us will be able to take that.

Why do many of you have something against DiCaprio? Believe it or not, HE CAN ACT! Even in serious films! Just because he hasn't done this particular type of film before doesnt leave him any less credible than anyone else. Don't look down upon him because of his involvement in so many 'chic flics' as he might surprise all of you in a GF4...

: On one hand I miss the Corleones and Michael most of all, On the other hand it won't be Puzo who shall write it. They will have to be very carefull not to make a fiasco out of it (just look at Gone with the Wind #2
