I was happy Tommy got wacked (Goodfellas)

[erisi236]

Damn jerk killed Spider and Billy Batts was awesome.

Actually I kind of wonder why anyone would work for Jimmy, did any criminal kind of think, gee he's killing all his most loyal men I should avoid him.

Whatever happened to Jimmy Two Times?




Jimmy Two Times?

[Cranjis McBasketball]

Read Wise Guys and find out.

This is the second time you've put a spoiler as a title of a thread. Can you at least hide it inside a post and give people the option to click on the spoiler?

If you haven't watched Goodfellas by now, I have no sympathy for you.

Goodfellas came out in 1990.

I think 21 years is more than ample time for a mainstream movie like Goodfellas to be out before anyone screams spoilers!

It's a 20 year old movie. At this point, if you haven't seen it, you're likely not gonna. Spoilers are null and void after about a decade.

Interesting fact. The real Tommy got whacked by John Gotti's crew. It's amazing how the real life mob stories tie together. It really is a small world they live in.

[Hit Girl]

He was a bad dude. Deserved to get killed.

[SHAKEMASTER TV9 is Don Knotts]

Jimmy was an earner, he made alot of money. If you're in that world, you're likely going to get killed anyway, might as well make alot of money.

[Lazy peon]

Weren't they all bad guys? And real life bad guys too? So obviously there shouldn't be much sympathy.

[Massive G]

Billy Batts was terrible. Actually, Frank Vincent was much better as Phil Leotardo. I can never get past how his "party" was like 4 people standing at the end of a bar, occasionally making Irish jokes.

But yeah, Tommy probably deserved to get popped.

I have seen it. Many times. I've also seen Godfather 2 many times. Goodfellas is in my top five of all-time favorite movies.

@jackie Chan: Wow, have I ever been burnt.


I don't understand this supposed law that states there's a time when anything with a story (movie, book, tv show, whatever) is allowed to be spoiled - especially because it's "old".

There is a chance that someone may never watch this but there is also a chance that someone might watch this but hasn't gotten around to it yet. That does happen. Doing this stuff is robbing someone of an experience of discovery. That has always felt wrong to me.

If someone asks to be spoiled then that's ok, that's their right. But for everyone else, give them that option. Don't just blurt out spoilers and ruin things for people.

I don't know, maybe I'm just overly-sensitive to this kind of stuff but I just think it's wrong. If we do this then every book, show, movie, is fair game and I just don't think that's right.

[Hit Girl]

They should remake Goodfellas, but with Russian gangsters instead.

[Threadkiller [Classic]]

This thread has reminded me how much I love mobster names.

It's like that episode of Law & Order where they were on the tail of two mobsters with the last names Biscotti and Libretti, a duo which went by the name "Biscuits and Books."

Victory.
