The Godfather and the Mob 3/5

[JanksterProductions]

Al Pachino being short is easily fixable in filming though, and if they could embrace it. I mean, it could be symbolic of his character.

[darkahnubis]

But they used the words "Mafia" and "Cosa Nostra in Godfather 2.

[iTequilaMockingbird]

@darkahnubis Once the mafia saw the Godfather, they embraced it. It made them look badass.

[39tommyboy]

thinking about this story. if we all would have heard this in the enquirer magazine next to the cave baby found in oklahoma section. we would have never believed that the mafia was intemidated and worried about being ousted so bad back then by  a simle movie. if you watch the movie it really didnt go into detail the secrets of the mafia to much. like the secret making of a soilder and basically things we all learned in the past three decades from discovery channels. lol

[TheGrandCapt]

I heard it was Al Ruddy was the one who had Columbo hit.

[TheGrandCapt]

They are still alive and well in Atlantic City.

[TheGrandCapt]

Joe Columbo was so stupid he was killed by a soul brother. That was the biggest smack in the face.

[Rudy9343]

Geez...This kind of Online video critically will work. It happens to be crazy, It's surprising the idea, I attempted it for zero cost with roulettecash-org

[Shelby596]

Pacino is the greatest actor in the world. Those idiots.

[SMHS18]

"They didn't want Al Pacino, Al Pacino was a midget" LOL

[mrtundra45]

But they are still there,...

[Justin8806]

Columbo.. fuckin' crazy

[glassprisioner]

Now the mafias are in Russia.. and in some Govs, like Hugo Chavez's mafia.. they can do what they want

[mrtundra45]

@glassprisioner Uhhhh, .....the Mafia is all over NY...Jersey, Penn, Florida, Chicago, Kansas City, LOs Angeles, New Orleans, Cleveland, Cincinati, Miniapolis, Hartford, Seattle, ....Latin America,.. Europe,..ect............(even mid-east & asia)

Overall, the Mafia collectively nets about 20 BILLION dollars per year!

...Id say they are still pretty powerful....if not More powerful than they were in the 60s & 70s

[timberwolf84]

@mrtundra45 I think philadelphia as well.

[mrtundra45]

@timberwolf84 Oh yeah, they are in Philly for sure.... and other citys in Pennsylvania, like Scranton, Pittsburgh, Reading, ect... but Philly is the main city..

[timberwolf84]

@mrtundra45 Atlantic city in the 1920s.

[mrtundra45]

@timberwolf84 Actually there is still mafia in Atlantic city as wel as Las Vegas, and Reno NV.

Nickky Scarfo and his crew had Big gambling and prostitution extortion rings in AC and LV just back about 20 years ago... in the 80s they kinda went underground and started to stay away from big gambling citys like LV and AC .. to much problems and heat i guess.

[gustovo134]

this story could be a movie its so ironic and deep in the power and tactics of the mob

[nortefasho]

Geez! Coffey makes it very apparent that he despises mobsters and every damn thing they did.

[LordBifford]

0:20 Wow, this guy has smoked a lot of cigarettes.

[alexandreleverrier]

Wear were the Afro-Americans when they shot "Boyz In Da Hood" and "Menace To Society" ?

[luvoleflicks68]

@alexandreleverrier

1st of all it's "Where" NOT "wear", 2nd That's like saying where were the Cubans during "Scarface"? & 3rd what the hell does that have to do with anything?

[alexandreleverrier]

@luvoleflicks68 yeah ! good question spelling Nazi ! where were the Cubans ?

[luvoleflicks68]

@alexandreleverrier Spelling Nazi??, LOL! oh that hurt. Dude that's 3rd grade grammar! You should care to learn the correct use & spelling of words. People will take you more seriously. This is why people overseas think we're stupid.

[alexandreleverrier]

@luvoleflicks68

English isn't my Language.

[ShockGod16]

@alexandreleverrier They were up in their crack dens.Who would care about those shit heads even if they riot.Unlike the italians they don't have a culture or standards they just contribute shit ass music and drugs to the people and pretend to be tough.The Mafia will always be distinguished among those punks.

[luvoleflicks68]

@ShockGod16 go see the world.

[ShockGod16]

@luvoleflicks68 I did.I have been through everything,I have seen everything.I aint know fool and i only comments on things i really know.

[PeterMayer]

The Godfather would not get made today as a major release. Pathetic...not enough CG in it..souless crap...

[muttilo]

Coffey is in EVERY Mob Doc and you can just tell he has hates Italians I'm sorry

[muttilo]

Funny ass story. Al Rudy is a Jewish Italian Godfather LOMAO !

[bobb328]

God, this just makes me hate production companies. Image if after they saw that first scene they called it off or casted different actors. Every modern movie after it wouldn't of ever been the same.

[oOZePirateOo]

even though they didn't want Brando and Pacino.. I can't see anyone else in their place.

[ZarathustrasCrown]

@oOZePirateOo Brando had a tendency for that...apparently during Apocalypse Now he showed up having not read the script thoroughly, mumbled through a whole bunch of unscripted dialogue all the time and generally threw the set into disarray. Yet, I can't imagine anyone else doing those scenes...

[39tommyboy]

i wonder if the old mafia bosses would have approved of the comedy movie called mafia with loyd brigdes?? now that was a mafia movie and there wasnt any italions starring in it. lol they would have probably made them take out the sentence that nobody is bigger than frank sinatra to protect his reputation as a performer. lol just joking.

[MrRafel6a]

they made them take the word mafia out but they were fine with the women in the movie that lost her apartment being named MS.Colombo :(

[808Lana]

Um, they just showed Nicholas Pileggi in this saying that Al Ruddi should have been a Godfather, but under Pileggi's name they put "Former Reporter". Pileggi is the author of Wiseguys, which Martin Scorcessi (sp) directed as Goodfellas. It's weird that it doesn't say that...yet (I'm writing this at 1:23). Thanks for posting this great stuff, though!

[danimalo007]

Fucking mafia who the fuck they think they were??? Please give me a break this is America!!! If you don't like it then they should go back to their country. Seriously they should killed this idiots for good and LEAVE AMERICA ALONE.

[39tommyboy]

its funny that a legendary movie like the godfather almost wasnt made over political views of its nature. i have watched it several times and i dont see how it would have exploited the mob for what it was or is.

[WiseGuy5674]

Outstanding!....Omerta.

[nauris706]

WOW.EXECUTIVE SUITES DONT KNOW SHIT.

[geekazoyde]

the mafia doesn't have this kind of power anymore

[leechchill]

@geekazoyde

Just as the movies tells us =)

[ShockGod16]

@geekazoyde They do man.

[Cooldaddy532000]

"They are cowards......which they are". LOL, I love that guy.

[americanpolitic1]

Dude is this real?  The Dons negotiated with the producers.
