Goodfellas would've been a better example for a film making mafia life look fun.

I don't know about anybody else, but neither Scarface nor The Godfather made it look "fun" to be a gangster.

Agreed. Scarface maybe a little bit. But Godfather was boring as shit. Goodfellas is the best example

Bruce Campbell made hunting zombies look fun in Army of Darkness.

But as we all know it takes a real man to chop off his hand and travel back in time to battle against the evil deadites.
