      And in the black movies they're so sad about the deaths. Like if "shorts rapist guy" was black they'd have some reason why raping karen wasn't his fault, he didn't know better and be super sad about his getting beaten.
      Nothing wrong with empathy j just feel like it's a bit of pandering in this case. Watch if you don't believe me

      From what I read and have seen in other videos, Paul Vario had an affair with Karen Hill one of the times that Henry went away. Paulie knew that Tommy and Jimmy Burke had killed Bats but since they were making a ton of money for him, he looked the other way. Then he found out that Tommy tried to force himself on Karen Hill. Paulie was so mad that he told the Gambinos that Tommy killed Bats and did a couple of other things that they would want to know about. From what I understand you are correct that Gotti and Bats were close friends. The story is he took his time killing Tommy for revenge.

    The real Henry Hill, after he got out of witness protection, went back to his organized crime roots and tried to open a restaurant/front business in West Haven Connecticut. He tried to do the same thing he talked about earlier in the movie by skimping on the payments and trying to torch the place for insurance purposes. Fortunately the West Haven Fire Department was able to put out the fire quickly. I don't know if they directly connected the fire to him, but they knew he was the owner. Hard to believe the real Henry Hill was only a few towns over from me. The restaurant he tried to torch was reopened under new management, new owners, etc. It's legit now, no longer a mob front anymore.

    For the life of me I am not sure when I first watched this movie. I think I watched it in Students Union showing in like 1997. I wasn't aware of it before. In 1998 I bought it on DVD and I kept watching it every few months, perhaps twice a semester or something. I loved it and I usually would watch it with Chinese takeaway. Sweet and sour chicken, egg fried rice, a portion of fries, prawn crackers and when I could find some, feta cheese. Yeah I remember exactly even though it was 23 or so years ago. Some time around 2003 or so I stopped watching it and haven't since. Not sure why. I think perhaps because I am just sick of crime in general.
    Anyway, another great reaction from you guys.

    i'll let you know, the garlic razor thin?
    it doesn't change the taste at all. it's a lot of effort for no difference, unless you just hate the texture of minced garlic.
    it takes so much time, your fingers will smell for being in contact that much longer, it's really something to do if you're bored in prison. i'm not saying it doesn't work, i'm saying i'd use a garlic press and I also like chunks of garlic.

    A lot of channels are getting hit more and more with copyright. Also, y'all might want to check out My Blue Heaven, it's the unofficial sequel to Goodfellas (Goodfellas is based on a book written from interviews with Henry Hill, My Blue Heaven was written by the author's wife based on the same interviews) that's a comedy taking place once he's in witness protection starring Steve Martin and Rick Moranis.

    One of the best channels on TH-cam is osw reviews, a comedy channel that reviews old wrestling shows, they use an insane amount of wwe footage but get around the video getting taken down by splicing in clips and jokes from The Simpsons, this way both the WWE and FOX claim the video, however because its two different companies disputing it the video stays up although they can't be monetized. Osw did a Q&A video where they explain it better than me but that the gist of it.

    You should also do 'The Untouchables' - it's the Chicago Way, just like Dibs! My grandmother lived in Cicero a few doors down from Capone's place - he often brought her groceries, and walked with her over to the polling place to vote when her husband was out-of-town on business (she said he was a perfect gentleman, and very kind). Here's the trailer for 'The Untouchable's': th-cam.com/video/2cGat1xI8G8/w-d-xo.html

    But this one appears to be the one everyone can re-watch over and over again and still be overwhelmed by the storytelling. Love your channel.

    Tommy was killed for killing Billy Batts, not for killing Spyder. Billy Batts was a made man, Tommy was not. And even if he was a made man, he'd still have needed approval from his boss and Billy's boss before he could kill him without any repercussions.

    Paulie was smart. He obviously knew the guys killed Batts and like he said he was getting questions about it from above. He likely set Tommy up to cover a few bases. He looks good for helping the higher ups get thier revenge and he gets rid of Tommy in a clean way that no one will question. And he spares Jimmy and Henry.
