@jetelegen Shit, let's say 2:30 to do it justice.

@crazyanglo Thank you so much for the lovely recommendation! I am going to have to stick with a library checkout for now; good thing UWash's music library is pretty stacked.

@goodoldbill Technically a worked shoot (in which they tell a guy to more or less say what he actually thinks). You're right though, it certainly had parameters.

The best part...when he says he wants to "wrap this thing up" about 19 minutes into a 52+ minute diatribe.

I love that people keep pointing out to me that Bobby did, in fact, kick Tony's ass. That...was...the...point...of....the...joke.

OK, folks. This is...obviously...a documentary made by the WWE in order to make money on a lapsed employee who had nothing else to offer them. Of course it's biased. This is the same company that's been shoving John Cena down people's throats for years...there's always an agenda.

@jetelegen Tori is that which God and Goddess both worship.

MR. SULU WARP SPEED WARP SPEED YEAH YEAH YEAH HEY!!!!

Roy Demeo was never a capo, unless everything I've read is wrong. Just a soldier.

I like how they used Artie as a contrast to Davey here; he's a civilian capable of resisting the mob's temptations. Of course, come season 4...different story.

@Te4RHyP3 Indeed. I remember talk of a fourth Godfather movie featuring Leo as a younger Sonny Corleone and always wished I could see that, too. If you've read the novel, there's a story there...basically the story of Sonny Corleone being an unstoppable badass while his father was recovering from...

@airemillion90 Malopropisms were one of the key sources of humor for the show; Little Carmine, of course, was the ultimate abuser.

Interesting historical sidebar: Castellano's tenure as boss (which, of course, was much shorter), was bloodier than Gotti's. Not that the film is "inaccurate," per se, but Castellano wasn't a choirboy.

@SopranosFan57 True/false. They've decapitated the mob's leadership, but (as it turned out), those voids were relatively easily filled.

@theygunaHATEME Just thought I'd mention that Nancy Pelosi, in fact, voted against the Iraq War Resolution. Even basic facts elude you.

A parody is when you make fun of something. This is a tribute.

@Music1222 The "show's basically in love with him" because he was a breakout character, the single-biggest ratings boost the show ever received.

Meanwhile, you have no idea what you're talking @. He survived confrontations with her in season 3, 4, 5, 6, AND 7 because she willed it, not because ...

Now, Miss Carpenter, that's a bit of a distracting outfit to wear in the workplace.

Great scene.

You know, it was very clever not to turn Spike into a puppet as well; the fight works a lot better with Spike, full-size, fending Puppet Angel off.

Spike's greatest speech ever. Which is saying a LOT.

Yeah, you know...I almost want to say "this song would've made Donnie Darko even better," but that would be challenging the film's already quantum status.

I therefore declare both song and film quantum and applaud the person who put this together (it's the first time I've ever approved of this ...

Not close to my favorite Leonard album (come on, I'm Your Man in a first-round knockout, am I right?), but I do find a lot of merit in it and get sick of the "This is a Phil Spector album, not a Leonard Cohen album" comments I always hear.

I was getting ready to teach a few weeks ago and wanted to hear this to get pumped up-because it's about as close to the sublime as we'll ever get in rock music and all-and couldn't find the original. Thanks so much for posting!

I think my favorite part has to be when Tony reminds them all of their debt to Junior and their faces reflect the insanity of that remark.
