You talkin’ to me?

[johnthebaptistmoore]

Did he say, “You talking to me? Are you talking to me? Well, there’s nobody else here.” after he was caught?

[Clemenza]

Anyone else remember the old Comedy Central show Viva Variety with Michael Ian Black? They did a rather funny skit about a guy who is always mistaken for Robert DeNiro (I can’t seem to find it on Youtube). Any Freepers have a link?

[Alex Murphy]

"We knew that Robert de Niro would not be driving alone around a remote part of the country. We guessed he was an imposter."

Oops - looks like he violated the circle of trust!

Reminds when the Real DeNiro appeared on SNL’s “The Joe Pesci Show”

Real Joe Pesci: You know, week after week, we watch you guys from our living rooms, supposedly imitating Joe Pesci and Robert DeNiro. When in fact, when in fact, you are doing caricatures of characters we have played in ‘Goodfellas’ and ‘Raging Bull’. Also, my friend, Mr. DeNiro, has a very extensive vocabulary, and does not speak in one-word sentences, like ‘a little bit’, and ‘over here’. Isn’t that right, Bobby? [The real Robert DeNiro nods] Also, I am actually a very calm, laid-back person. I do not break into lunatic, maniacal rages, when someone says something a little offensive. You know what I mean?

Jim Breuer: Oh, no, no, I know what you mean, Mr. Pesci. Absolutely. I’m just a huge fan of both you guys. This is—I mean—I love all the crazy characters you play. And just, the two of you, this is insane. [to Colin Quinn] Right?

Real Joe Pesci: Crazy? Insane? I mean, did I hear what he just said? Did he say what I thought he just said?

Real Robert DeNiro: I heard things. I heard ‘crazy’.

Real Joe Pesci: I mean, did he just insult us?

Real Robert DeNiro: A little bit. [to Colin Quinn] Who are you supposed to be?

[Extremely Extreme Extremist]

Man, Robert De Niro is a fricking legend. All of his movies - ALL OF THEM - he just revels in his character.

‘fraid not, dude.

[fieldmarshaldj]

Classic stuff.

I think probably one of my favorite DeNiro characters and films is Rupert Pupkin in Scorsese's "The King of Comedy" that he did with Jerry Lewis. It's obscure to some, but I think it's a great black comedy.

[Daffynition]

Martin Scorsese and De Niro have made some of the best & memorable cinema. “King” is a great film.

Fantastic ... absolutely fantastic! They look more like De Niro than De Niro!

[Daffynition]

His work has been brilliant ... but I am so biased ... I can't be objective about his work.

HAHAHA ... the impersonator’s mannerisms were spot on! HAHAHAHA!

[B Knotts]

That’s a very good film.
