I think they can pull this off. First of all both actors are still in pretty good shape. Very good shape for their age. Plus their was talk of using special effects to give them a younger look in parts of this movie.
Too bad they are all afraid to invest some of their own money to make it work. "some talk" of using special effects to give them a younger look is scary. How de niro will pull off being a 30 something gangster is just ridiculous. bufalino and an older hoffa i could understand, but these guys are still old. the problem is, goodfellas and casino set the bar high and while i love de niro and pacino, they're way past their prime.

Did you see DeNiro in The Family they show him before he became a rat. He looked a lot younger in that scene. a bit younger, sure...but to play a 30 year old rising up the teamster ranks is ridiculous. i hope this movie is great but pacino isn't nearly the same actor as he once was.

[qMoe_Tilden]I think De Niro is more versatile than Pacino. "Has Pacino ever had a strong role in a comedy for example?" Has DeNiro ever done Shakespeare  ? "DeNiro has had several." Evidently DeNiro needs money. He is making a lot more movies then he used to some are total crap. Like the one with him and travolta. How about the one with him and Stallone there are crap.

Lanza's Mob is being written by this freak:
Christina Ann-Marie DiEdoardo was born in Queens, N.Y. in 1969. After completing her undergraduate work at the University of Missouri-Columbia in journalism and political science, Christina spent a decade as a newspaper reporter before embracing the Dark Side and attending law school. She became the first person to undergo a gender transition in the history of the William S. Boyd School of Law while a student and she remains the only openly Trans attorney licensed to practice law in Nevada. After passing the California Bar Exam in 2008, she relocated to San Francisco in 2009, where she currently resides and practices criminal defense at her own firm. She also serves as a contract public defender in Lake County, California.
When not straightening out her clients' misunderstandings with law enforcement, Christina enjoys historical research and writing. Her first nonfiction book-"Lanza's Mob: The Mafia and San Francisco" will be published in mid-2016 by Praeger lol. I noticed that too and I knew it would create a stir. As long as the book's good, I don't care. But $37 being the pre-order price, for 186 pages? I'll bet everything in this book can be obtained through google searches. So far it looks bad. Her personal life aside, she's not even from SF, or even the west coast. She's a NY academic and she's clearly trying to cash on uncharted territory in mob literature, San Francisco. Maybe to pay for that operation? tehe.
"...the successful annihilation of organized crime's subculture in America would rock the 'legitimate' world's foundation, which would ultimately force fundamental social changes and redistributions of wealth and power in this country. Meyer Lansky's dream was to bond the two worlds together so that one could not survive without the other." - Dan E. Moldea

De Niro is actually very well off with his real estate development and properties. he owns quite a bit in soho and his son is one of nyc's power brokers, he and his wife have a very successful real estate brokerage firm and own quite a few buildings in manhattan. hes not hurting financially in any way
