    I wish they went with Bob Hoskins for Capone, he’d be perfect. I always thought De Niro looked a bit out of place in that movie.

    Wow. Just wow. He was casted as Mario in a movie years ago with John Leguizamo. And now Chris Pratt was just recently cast to play Mario.

    I love his accent. When I was a kid, I thought all British people sounded like that.
