He was one of the top actors in the early 90s. After a strong start to his career that Goodfellas/Lethal Weapon/My Cousin Vinny/Home Alone/Casino stretch had mans up there with anyone in Hollywood.

But he didn't want it...

Lol how.... he showed a wide range.

• Home Alone- Angry burglar
• Lethal Weapon- Angry snitch
• Raging Bull- Angry friend
• Moonwalker- Angry guy that steals kids and hates Michael Jackson
• The Super- Angry whiny landlord
• My Cousin Vinny- Angry lawyer

I love him as a actor but breh, the only time he escape the angry small dude was in JFK where he was actually amazing in

I love Pesci but dude was like the white version of Laurenz Tate minus the suave and smooth sense of his demeanor.

[CHICAGO]

Dude been playing O Dog since 1991 breh

O DAWG IS
THE ONLY TIME HE EVER HAD
A ROLE LIKE THAT.

HE FOLLOWED THAT UP
WITH THE "INKWELL" WHERE HE WAS A LAME NERD, "DEAD PREZ" WHERE HE WAS
A MILITARY VET
AND THEN HE PLAYED FRANKIE LYMON.

WHO WATCHES COUNCILMAN TATE
ON POWER AND THINKS OF O DAWG?

Joe Pesci has some all time performances, he absolutely is not on the level of a DeNiro or Pacino.

 

[wtfyomom]

I think hes just a character actor thats why and like no homo but what major starring roles is this short stumpy wop gonna play ? imagine him being some action star or even some leading actor in a drama. look how awkward this nikkas scenes with sharon stone were

 

[TripleAgent]

He's not a "leading man"

vaguely remember reading he wanted to do music, so he retired from acting, and would only come back for certain directors/roles
