I simply can't choose. If it was The Godfather 2 and Goodfellas, I'd choose The Godfather 2, but this..eugh.

Both.
Tie goes to Pacino, however.
His characters story arc and acting is better than any of the three leads in Goodfellas.

I'd say Goodfellas. I really liked the Godfather but I have to be in the mood to watch it. I can watch Goodfellas anytime, it never gets boring.

Goodfellas is a mess, while The Godfather is a near masterpiece.

Apart from Donnie Brasco, I can't think of a single movie that clashes as heavily with The Godfather, in terms of the portrayal of the mafia family system, as GoodFellas. Godfather is an old-fashioned epic, GoodFellas is basically a biopic. In any case, they're very different films and they shouldn't really be compared in such a general way.
Saying that, I'd vote for The Godfather if I had to.

I always found Donnie Brasco a little "breezy". They are completely different takes on the lifestyle though, yet because both of them are at the top of their game, its hard not to think of the comparison.

The Godfather; although I've only seen Goodfellas once and that was a long time ago.

The Godfather.
Goodfellas is great, and Scorsese is an infinitely more consistent director than Coppola (who's made 3/ 4 masterpieces but otherwise has actually sucked rather a lot) but Goodfellas isn't one of his best films, in my opinion. But to compare the two is trivialises both, especially as such different films, really.

The Godfather is a more cerebral movie. Goodfellas is more a rousin' good time. Both are great flicks, but I can watch Goodfellas over and over again. The Godfather...gotta be in the mood.
