Wow. That's actually amazing. To be a fan of Coppola in general, of mob films in general, and 70s films in general, but not the Godfather?? Congratulations, you may be literally the only person with that opinion (note: not sarcasm or intended to be mean; I am genuinely surprised and impressed).

Yeah the only Weekend I need is from Godard and as for BITWC, I'm pretty sure if I was in the mood for that, someone like Viv Thomas does it better than Abdellatif Kechiche. That being said, I am a hypocritical piece of shit who will in general watch a film about lesbians, for instance I thought Carol was pretty good.

Putting John Wayne in the same sentence as Eastwood and Bronson

Well played No, I in general, I incidentally am also uninterested in that, and would rather they all were Blue Valentine. (Attempt at joke: Furthermore, just for the sake of trying to do a triple entendre, I am also genearlly uninterested in films with a "stupid" relationship at its core, I guess Dumb & Dumber being an example?)

Oh come on. I agree with what you're saying, but you honestly can't understand why someone would take it that way? Even people who watch the whole thing often have that as a complaint, justified or not. If nothing else, the amount of alleged copycat crimes would indicate a lot of psychopaths and needless killers took the film as an endorsement.

Anyways, I prefer the original ending, although the theatrical is pretty dark in it's own way. Although what I would prefer even more would be some kind of combination of both:
[Show spoiler]If Mickey & Mallory did escape, and had a family, and THEN the entire family was murdered, not by Owen, but some random serial killer who took down entire families, in the style of the first BTK murder. THAT would have been something.
