its easy work and pays well, why wouldn't you do films like these? fukk it dog deniro is a legend and paid his dues, same with pacino
Why are Robert de Niro and Al pacino ....
- Thread starter ciubaca
- Start date
They retired?
Maybe they like acting, I saw the intern :kony: and deniro was fine in it.
If they love "working" why not.

They are two of the greatest actors of all time.
At this point, I think they're just having fun knowing they're status is cemented.
Obviously, Pacino didn't have to do an Adam Sandler movie. Deniro didn't have to do a Ben Stiller movie.
But they have kids and grand kids they may want to entertain. They still fulfill they're art. Deniro in Silver Linings Playbook hit home for me.
They're Hollywood royalty and have the freedom to play the roles they feel is right for them at the time.
As long as there's physical evidence of the Godfather II, they really can't do wrong.

at thinking a few bad movies gonna tarnish al pacino and robert deniro legacy 
they legacy is cemented - NOTHING can change their legacy (movie wise they cemeted, they'd have to have a charlie sheen type melt down to actually hurt they legacy in the media, which I dont see happening)most people got them as their favorite actors of all time
no ones gonna remember alex rodriguez bad seasons man they only gonna remember he hit 700 home runs. Barry Bonds highly regarded as baseball GOAT even though they tried to drag his name through the mud.. do you see what im saying ? No one gonna remember al pacino for some weak roll he took in 2015 but they'll always remember scarface

Maybe you're right. I do think De niro is a contender for the GOAT(these new movies are not helpin his cause).Pacino not so much, sure he was on fire in the 70s but after that he kind of started to over act in most of his movies

As far as Pacino's overacting, it's just kinda his trademark then again, it doesn't detract from his movies but also I think it fits the roles. He can reel it in when necessary.
What about DeNiro appearing in all those FiF straight-to-DVD-movies
I think he only did those because him and fif are friends honestly
