The Wire - Chris and Snoop Vs. Bodie

Word on the street was Bodie was Snitchin and Chris and Snoop were gonna go do him in. The Wire Season 4

Okay, Just to make things Clear..

" On his corner, Bodie's having a slow night, along with Poot and Spider, who is now working the corner. When Poot alerts him to Chris approaching, Bodie refuses to leave. "This is my corner. I ain' runnin'." He fires at the cars Snoop and Chris are ducking behind, as Poot pleads with him to run. Unable to convince Bodie to flee, Poot finally runs for cover, passing a young hooded boy - O-Dog, one of Snoop and Chris's trainees - who creeps up to Bodie and shoots him in the head. Bodie falls to the ground and is finished with a second shot to the head. He lays there dead, as O-Dog jogs off to join his mentors. "

I remember that after he killed Wallace, I HATED Bodie. Hated everything about that hot tempered, ruthless fucker. Yet, somehow by the time he died, he was the most believably sympathetic character I had seen on screen. The death of some hard-assed street thug who I relate to in exactly zero ways had me choked up. I'm still hard-pressed to actually like the guy, but I at least understand a part of his struggle, and it feels real. I had never truly felt a fictional story like that before.

@Slaker117 True that man. His death was like, "woah". I'm pretty sure that's how we all felt.

I find the last bit of eye contact Bodie and Poot make to be particularly moving

'Cmon man' - there going to kill you

*shakes head* - I know it... goodbye

@Krme1406 You really could argue for any season being best, they were all that good. i personally liked 3-5 better than 1 and 2, i just found them more entertaining. Such as the final episode of season 4, just unbelievable.

[Krme1406]

@Sully0020 I still think season 1, 2 and 3 were the best because of the reality. In 1 they portray the drug dealing business, in 2 you got the mafia, drug smugglers and whatnot. In 3 you got the war between the two strongest crews.

@Krme1406 You're missing the point of Marlo's crew. All they care about is rep. When Michael asks, "How do you even know if he really said that" they say "It dont matter if he said it. People think he said it." I thought seasons 4 and 5 were awesome. season 4 with the schools and season 5 with the fake serial killer, awesome plots, and of course great characters.

R.I.P Bodie and Wallus

Anyone notice that O-Dog moves forward then left before gunning down Bodie? Much like a knight on a chess board.....

Game is the game yo

Bodie's death was truly the worst one to me. I know he was planning to rat on Marlo, but shit.. This man has matured. I expected Stringer, I expected Deangelo, I expected Omar... but I was not prepared for Bodie's demise.

But like he said "Just don't ask me to live on my fuckin' knees, you know?"

One of the saddest scenes I've ever seen in a show ever. I kept hoping he would at least take out one of them. My jaw was on the floor when he got killed. I can't remember a time where I was on the edge of my seat during a scene in a movie or show like this before.... amazing season finale.

And the fucking Michael was the most unrealistic and shitty character in the whole show.
