Favorite Joe Pesci Movie

I always liked Joe Pesci in many of his movies from Lethal Weapon 2,3,4 to My Cousin Vinny as well as Casino.

If I had to pick which was his best it would have to be My Cousin Vinny as too many scenes in that movie were far hilarious from his showing up in court pissing off the judge from his leather jacket to that burgundy tux and then the way he could not plead his clients out during arrangement as the judge had to constantly inform the abrasive ignorant attorney that you can only plead guilt or not guilty and not argue the circumstances of the alleged crime in this hearing.

Of course Fred Gwynne had some great acting in that movie which supported Pesci as well as the chemistry between him and Tomei was fabulous.

What is your favorite Joe movie?

My Cousin Vinny, even though when Marisa Tomei says "He had to, ya dickweed! It's called disclosure!"  what she's actually talking about is "discovery."

Right now I have one coworker with the last name Gambini and another with the last name Gallo, I just need one named Callo and I'll have all of his aliases covered.

Goodfellas. I even got college credit for watching it in a Film Appreciation class.

"Casino" for the win.  "You put my money to sleep!".

US 101 is THE backbone of the Pacific coast from Bandon OR to Willits CA.  Industry, tourism and local traffic would be gone or severely crippled without it being in functioning condition in BOTH states.

Joe Pesci fighting a robotic/Autobot Micheal Jackson at the end of Moon Walker is all sorts of epic levels of stupid fun.  His character went by the name of "Mr. Big" and has a whole spider theme deal going on with his drug empire, all he wanted was to get the kids high:

Every time one of my co-workers come back from lunch whining that their lunch order got screwed up (an almost everyday occurrence), I break out my pest Joe Pesci voice and say "They F*&K you at the drive through".

I can't believe you forgot about Home Alone, with his Harry teaming up with Daniel Stern's Marv to break into Macaulay Culkin's house, only to get injured by a series of kid-made weapons. That and the sequel (Lost in New York) are two of my favorite Christmas films.

And if you believe popular movie theories served as prequels to the Saw movies.  Some of those traps Kevin setup for the Wet Bandits are similar to those the Jigsaw Killer would use.

Ha!  I prefer the theory that Ferris Bueller doesn't exist and is a figment of Cameron's imagination, similar to Tyler Durden in Fight Club.

Wasn't there a new theory that was recently put out that Cameron was the Narrator after high school?

I haven't heard that one.

GoodFellas is a close second to MCV.  I like Casino a little less every time I see it.

Wendy's in Edison, NJ on crowded US 1 did that to me.  Though after I fought the busy traffic to get to my house less than a mile away, I found they forgot my baked potato.

Yes, that was a great scene especially when Leo Getz got his tuna sandwich he did not want.  As people want what Leo can get, others cannot get for Leo especially in the fast food industry lol!
