I watched it recently for the first time, and I really don’t get why it’s so loved. IMDB rates it as the second-best movie of all time, but it seems far worse than that to me. I like most old movies and see their hype, but The Godfather didn’t do it for me. What am I missing?
There are plenty of examples of this on youtube, have you watched any?

Example 2
Example 3
To me, any show shot with a laugh track or studio audience feels really strange without it. The pauses make it very stilted.
