A quick search should tell you as this often comes up.

I'm Anthony Soprano.

semi-pro waster · 17 Dec 2007 at 19:38

Spie = Marlon Brando as The Godfather in the eponymous film
Commissarios = John Gotti as in the late mafia boss
Dons = Al Pacino as Tony Montana in Scarface
Underboss = Robert De Niro as Neil McCauley in Heat
Men of Honour = Andy Garcia as Vincent Corleone in The Godfather
Caporegime = Robert De Niro as Vito Corleone in The Godfather (I think)
Capodecima = Christopher Walken as Vincenzo Coccotti in True Romance
Wise Guys = James Gandolfini as Tony Soprano in the Sopranos

I can't remember who for hitman and gangster though I'm afraid.

//edit, damn that took about 10 minutes worth of remembering, there were no posts when I started.

This info should probably be included in the user maintenance rules though so people can just post "Read the FAQ nooob!!!!!".

Feel free to fill in the gaps I've left. I can't remember offhand.

Missed out Joe Pesci and Billy Batts at least I think.

Gangster is Billy Batts (Frank Vincent) from Goodfellas

Hitman is Tommy DeVito (Joe Pesci) from Goodfellas

Freefaller · 17 Dec 2007 at 21:37

Seriously? I'm amazed if that is true, I can accept some of them are less well known than others but if you've never watched any films with the rest of them in then you have missed out on some of the most critically lauded films (and best since that isn't the same thing) of all time.

And I couldn't agree more Monsieur.

i'm sorry semi-pro waster, tis true.

Who needs a gun, I just click my fingers.

Besides which, Andy Garcia doesn't have a gun, which is the point I was making. The quoted post was from a person with Pacino as his avatar.
