The Sopranos Episode 12 Two Men Attempt to Kill Tony Soprano

Notice the orange juice that Tony Soprano buys and drinks at the beginning of this scene. Godfather reference?

@seekisforme5 I think it was the show's example of miraculous luck. The Sopranos establishes itself as rooted in reality (as opposed to something like Tarantino or Guy Ritchie) so when something so improbable happens we get a stronger feeling of relief or awe.

while its unrealistic..... they attempted to make it more realalistic using 2 black negros to do the killing since negros can fuck up a cup of coffee

terribly shot sequence...

[barneycockburn]

@lansky52 Thus the expressions, "more fucked up than a nigger's checkbook," or "that guy could fuck up a one car nigger funeral..."

[FinJeffin]

@lansky52 .. "Black Negro's?" Wouldn't just the word "Negro's" be sufficient? I don't think they come in any other colour, as in "White Negro's" for example, that wouln't make a whole lot of sense would it.

@ShareTheMike Yeah, I know the scene you mean, where they're at Tony's house, he opens that cabinet with the mirror on and you get a glimpse of Pussy watching the trio. That scared the shit out of me first time I saw it!

@Cruisey1234 For something similar...(the background snippet is the point of the scene)....check out the video "Salvatore "Big Pussy" Bonpensiero's ghost watching Tony Soprano"...

@Cruisey1234 brilliant...good eye...It makes the scene twice as good, and shows once again the brilliance of David Chase....In fact the indifference of the two bystanders might be the point of the whole scene...i.e. these things happen in the world cause nobody gives a sh8...

I think it's very realistic...These two hit men weren't trained by the Navy Seals...They are amateurs who have no freakn idea what they are doing....and they are up against a lifelong Mafia man who's been shot at before....
