Well, I too, have always heard of the movies, and how good they were suppose to be, but never got around to watching them.
It just so happened that one day, no one was home, and I was exteremely bored. I picked the first movie I saw and popped it in the VCR. The movie just so happened to be The Godfather. I was mezmorized. The movie was done, and I rewinded it and watched it over again, right there and then. Needless to say I have no life, the fact that I have the time to do this is amazing. Well it ended, and I learned so much more the second time (I seem to learn more each time I eatch it, and I have watched it quite a few times since then). I went to put the movie back, when what did I see? The Godfather 2 was right there. I didn't even know there was a second movie so I was ecstatic to see the movie. I rushed to put the movie in and I was very intrigued the whole way through, just as the first one.
By the time it had ended, it was 3 in the morning, and I had to be in work in like 3 hours. As much as I didn't want to, I fell asleep, the minute it was over.
Well, the minute I came home from work, I popped it in the VCR and watched it intentively, learning more with every watch.
Now after that, I watched the movies occasionally and I was also was captured by mocies like Goodfellas, and Casino (along with many otehrs). One day, I was online and I was bored. I looked up GF fan sites and I came upon some attempted at a webpage and as little information as it had, it did have one fact that I found very exciting. There was a third movie.
I watched the movie, and noticed some faults, but I was still mezmorized. Of course, I watched it yet again. Just not too long ago, I demanded I have the DVDs and that I got.
I studied the movies over and over and searched many websites. I learned a lot. I thought I was The Godfather God-but then I found this site. This is site is full of geniuses(sp?), but I learned a whole lot more about The Godfather from this site.
Well that is my extremely broing dedication to that once, boring night when I chose The Godfather....by accident.
