The Godfather 1 or 2

Just curious which one do you prefer. I prefer the 2nd one, because its more intense, and because you get a prequal and a sequal. Nothing against the first that one is still amazing, I just like the 2nd one more.

While I loved part II, The first will always be my favorite. I felt it had more memorable scenes, and emerged me completely and fully into its world. And don't get me wrong, I love De Niro, but nothing can top Brando's Vito.

The first one is the beginning of one of the greatest stories of all time in the history of movies and works as a standalone one. Though I feel that the first one had a greater cast and superior performances I still prefer the second one, it did feel more intense, the story was so gripping, and Al Pacino was just incredible.

You're dead on with Part 2. It's a masterpiece in every way especially being one, if not the first, major non-linear piece of filmmaking and the more you watch it, the better it is. The Godfather Part 1 is awesome itself but it does not hold up as well as Part 2. I don't like when the studio makes those part 1 & 2 mixed versions putting it in chronological order because it fails on so many levels that it becomes just like everything else out there.

Awesome topic by the way

emm part one is amazing part 2 is super amazing :D but part 2 is better maybe just because its a sequal , and 1,2,3 combine makes a perfect thing in history :))
