The Sopranos-Christopher becomes a made guy

[CaBr0n76]

Oh shit it's the parking lot at k mart in the beginning.

[captain2ahab]

"The family comes before ev'rytin else, evr'ytin"....i love james gandolfini !

[skittleszy]

@guitar19904 what on earth are you laughing about? You don't believe me? I'm a made guy,you can't laugh at me. I'll grab this keyboard and...and run you over with a truck!!

[skittleszy]

I'm a made guy for the Dominic family in new york, and I can fucking reassure you that this is NOT how a guy becomes made. Tv is bullshit. When I became a made guy back in 2010 I had to strip naked....balance the whole godfather dvd collection on the top of my head and watch the boss fuck my wife. Then you take the mafioso oath and hit the gay bar for a celebration.

[guitar19904]

@skittleszy

LOL

[myautomobilefunk]

This is a reference to Tommy De Vito, Chrissy was nervous all the way ...

[bdhenderson]

May I burn in Hell, if I betray my friends!

[MaskedMarvyl]

"The Family comes before your wife, your children, your mudder, your fadder...."

That's some sick shit.

A bunch of cold-blooded murderers out for the all-mighty dollar comes before your children....

[Srd1126]

@MaskedMarvyl read "Underboss" as this is true, Paul Castilanno told Sammy Gravano that if your kid is dying in the hospital and has an hour to live and the boss sends for you, you leave the kid and see the boss.

[tonypanz]

I like how Bobby keeps screwing with the lights trying to set the mood just right lol.

[tonypanz]

Hehehe....how ya doin kid. Shoot ya cuffs.

[hollyberg1]

the crow is about him losing his freedom

[crissy214]

How can it be a something of honor to put "this thing of our's" ahead of family and kids

[MobKnowledge]

@crissy214 That was the point: it's a huge contradiction. They claim to be "honorable" men, but they lie, steal, and kill anyone they don't like. With the exception of Bobby and Paulie who stayed single, they all cheated on their wives/partners, Gene "betrayed his friends", as did Paulie (by talking to Johnny Sack), Patsy never got over the death of his twin (even though his other 'family' "comes before everything"), and there are countless other dishonourable things committed by made men.

[leprechaun666bitch]

@MobKnowledge stupid. Bobby was married to Karen you dumbfuck. He even has a kid named Bobby III

[MobKnowledge]

@leprechaun666bitch I meant Bobby was an exception due to the fact he didn't cheat on Karen. Dumbfuck. It's times like these I wish YouTube had a reading comprehension test required before membership, to keep idiots like you out.

[Constance2000]

too many fucking movies LOL

[tryandlisten]

Should've kept the clip going where they show the two asian whore strippers :)

[MobKnowledge]

@tryandlisten Nah YouTube would remove it if that happened.

[tryandlisten]

@MobKnowledge stoopid youtube

[9627122]

poor guy the guy next to chris dosent get much love

[TheYORR]

the mafia II (game) ''made scene'' is probably a ripp off from this one

[GamerOldSkool]

@TheYORR Obvious you never seen a Made ceremony in your life but how it is described is always been this stryle so I guess the Sopranos copied from any mafia flick before this because they all do the similar thing. But the real is w/ sword and gun on the table with holding a pic of a saint annoited with your blood while it burns in your hand and if you betray this thing of ours may your soul burn in hell like this saint. Saying mafia 2 ripped it off is laughable.

[BowmanSchram]

@GamerOldSkool

I remember Phil Leotardo complaining to Albert Cianflone that the DiMeos don't put a sword\knife and a gun on the table when they do the ceremony.

I think it was in season 6-2

and yeah the real mob should sue Mafia 2 writers.

[dander337]

Before Chrissy gets in the car, he asks, "Where we goin'?", then gets in and asks Sil again. I love how he's like an excited little kid who's getting treated to a surprise on his birthday. Of course, in a sense, it is his "birthday".

[myautomobilefunk]

@dander337 you are wrong, this is a reference to Godfellas when Tommy De Vito is killed with the excuse of becoming a made-guy, that's the reason Moltisanti was nervous .

[Ralastar]

The crow has for hundreds of years stood as a symbol and warning of death.

[RealAgentOfSHIELD]

In a real mafia ceremony if either of those guys voiced any doubts that guy would have been shot immediately

[hopkins4545]

It also means his soul disappeared. That's it. He sold his soul.

[j2times2006]

@hopkins4545 i got the same feeling watching this. another poster earlier said it was the last remnants of his humanity dissolving. cant help but agree.

[STFCstoneroses]

Eugene was a rat...

[sulidos]

I always wondered how authentic this scene was to the real deal.

[mugatu5000]

This show is brilliant. The irony. "This family comes before everything else. Your wife. You children" lol. But I thought the WHOLE reason for getting into this line of business, despite the ever-present threats of being whacked or the Feds, was to support your family lol. So many godfather references, yet none of these guys carry the humility or honor of Vito Corleone. Vito never even thought of cheating on his wife for chrissake.

[mrchrisince]

paulie says if you got a problem with anyone hear this is the man to talk to then when paulie sniffs adrianas panties he threatens christopher about going to tony

[red21dragon]

Gene very very underrated made guy

[burgersforreal]

quesion..how do they know how this mafia oath works? An arrested member spilled it or something?

[undisputedretail]

GREAT FUCKING ACTING...TOP NOTCH

[youngquez81]

@ least eugene never flipped...he stuck 2 tha G code & cleaned up his own mess by taking himself out..now he can burn n hell for committing suicide

[mdavis1992]

@youngquez81 eugene did flip thats why he killed himself because the FBI reinforced to him that he could never move away from jersey because he'd be useless to their investigation otherwise

[youngquez81]

@mdavis1992 He didnt flip in terms of giving the feds info that could have led 2 incriminating results for any1 connected 2 tha DiMeo family. Hell he didnt cooperate as much or as long as Puss did. He did just enought 2 stay afloat & once Tony said he couldnt go 2 Florida he knew what he had 2 do...& he took himself out

[patrikgeorg7]

Funny how Eugene is being made aswell as he's introduced in the series.

[crackernumber2]

1:24 i remember i got chill and some tears the first time i saw that part...... i dunno its just such an old old tradition... your basicly born on that day. And the only way you get out is in a box or in a cell.

[MultiLen10]

I love this shit

[Oskarovvv]

stoled from the joe valachi testimony

[jmeb17]

a black crow in the window means death.

[bigblizz1andonly]

@jmeb17 it ended that way too.

[Joeyal123]

@jmeb17 Crow is symbolic of the Goddess of Death Morrigan

[joj0724]

the crow was freaky

[trifelife212]

When he dies U can here Crows in the background.....

[AdArmand]

If you search for a promo for Season 3 of SIX FEET UNDER, there is a very similar, disturbing theme at play.

[TheJerseyChimpmunk]

the bird is dangerous lol think about it. the two people in that room that got made ended up dieing

[taxmonkey123]

Amazing scene, but it just goes to show how full of shit they really are. No way they wouldn't think less of them of they decided to quit, and I'm sure every man in that room valued their wife and children above the "family".

[SwTrojans88]

No, usually those guys are stone cold when it comes to things like that. If they can kill their best friends, i think that they care more about their "family" than their wife and kids.

[MobHeataEnt]

@SwTrojans88 Blood is thicker than water, remember that, yea most of these guys would rather face prison time than be a rat, but if ordered to do so they wouldn't kill their wife or kids, mother, father, etc. Not less their Joe Masseria.

[TooShyKajaGooGoo]

Is that Gene Pontecorvo getting made with Christopher?

[Wobbothe3rd]

Yes

[stuntaconsaerialbots]

I think the bird represents the last remnants of Chris's humanity, and after the ceremony is completed the bird vanishes. If you listen to Tony's speech about the importance of the family, you can tell that's whats implied.

[MikefromMadrid]

did they teach you that at acting school

[vsrtmma123]

hahahaha

[vsrtmma123]

the bird is ominous, chris thinks it's a bad omen... dumbass

[Wobbothe3rd]

Birds of a feather represent family, just like with the Ducks in episode 1. The dying bird represents the dying moltisanti family name

[toolover10]

Nope.

[hschan4]

I don't think Chris ever had any humanity to begin with.

[RickRomo]

I didn't see a gun and sword on the table.. That's a tradition of the Omerta, that's weird that they didn't show it in this scene..

[Wobbothe3rd]

In the real new Jersey mob they were also apparently left out. Notice that in the final season New York resents this, as they apparently did in real life.

[MikefromMadrid]

word?

[Nicopajjas]

In a later episode Phil Leotardo mentions this when disgracing the New Jersey mob.

[logwind]

Shoot your cuffs.

[ohiostmarine29203]

This was My Favorite Moment because Christopher was my Favorite.

[IAmLevelHeaded]

yes, me too.

[jksonny]

The scene reminds me of 'Goodfellas' where Tommy thinks he's getting made but gets whacked.

Nearly every character in the room ends up dead within just a couple of years.

HBO series have an obsession with the black-crow-in-the-window omen 'Six Feet Under' featured a similar situation during Nate's 40th birthday (and the character died shortly thereafter).

[RickRomo]

Except for paulie, that man is like a cockroach after a nuclear holocaust ... Furio's hard on for Carmela made him go back home to Italy

[jksonny]

I kept expecting/hoping Furio to pop up again somewhere/somehow. But that's one of the things that made 'The Sopranos' great; storylines were not always resolved in a nice, clear package. Often, characters came and went with no real explanation, just like life. The Russian from the 'Pine Barrens' ep. is another good example, as was the show's finale. Sometimes, life is just random and, seemingly, meaningless.

[imhood37]

Chris looks like a boss with his suit he picked good colors never would have though of that looks really boss

[brickcity326]

chris looks so cool in the beginning haha

[JasonMyers131]

What was the symbolism with the bird behind the window? Did it have something to do with the cat that haunted Phil during the final episodes?

[captain2ahab]

@JasonMyers131 Crow symbolises the fate of eugene and chris, chris gets whacked by tony, eugene kills himself because of tony.

the cat in the last episode symbolizes a) the soul of adriana b) orange means death (a hommage to the godfather part 1 movie) 

[SleepyBrownBread]

comments on soprano vids are hilarious, people that watch too many mafia movies

[TonySoprano1989]

orduni90 i agree with you m8. hate all those thing you said aswell.....these guys clothes are the best...real men

[tickedoffnow]

Chris :( I love him poor guy :(

[celticghirlroisin]

orduni , well said about real men clothes . thats what u call style .

[orduni90]

yea thanks man at least u agree with me on this!

[imhood37]

its is real men clothes but those are just other styles theres no need to say shit about them plus some black ppl were suits youve been watyching bad boys to much

[orduni90]

no, i havent been watchin bad boys! black ppl dress like fuckin idiots! maybe the preachers or office workers would wear a cheap red-colored suit, but all niggers wear those XXXXL shirts and pull their pants down so whoever wants to fuck them would have quicker access to their asses!

[imhood37]

so what thats just there style you sound like some fucking white trash ho

[orduni90]

no ur mom is a trashy ho, and im not white, asshole!

[imhood37]

Ok then your some racist asian idc because im not racist anyways its just a show and saying racist remarks about african americans on youtube just shows you have no balls and need to get a life instead of hating on some other culture

[MobHeataEnt]

@imhood37 I'll bet orduni90 goes to the local Olive Garden and wears his little "wannabe" wiseguy suit thinking he is in the mafia and says fuhgettaboutit, ball breaker, and cannoli .

[orduni90]

@MobHeataEnt i bet your mother gives a mean blowjob, since shes from the hood!

[MobHeataEnt]

@orduni90 Yea I would like to dress like that too but who dresses like that really. For work you would be "overdressed" and for school or college you would get laughed at. I wear casual/gq clothes for special occasions only, not to go to a restaurant or a cafe lol you would also look like a douche bag haha as if your a wannabe.

[dubzy81]

wow, so this thing of ours comes before tony's wife and kids in his mind.

[Matt0496]

what a classic scene

[allaninq]

woke up this morning,,,

[stearothermophilus]
