The only part i laughed at was "sonny got killed at a toll booth for not having exact change"
I laughed so hard when he said "The Mobbly Wobbly"
Bobby Manna that's exactly it! This guy isn't funny. Steak family, toilet, gun really!
Shoulda had ez pass

""Gerald Ford Coppola "
I missed That the first 2xs , Silly Mee 😋
"Michael's Italian wife is killed by his Italian car." I died laughing, thanks.
"At this point it's open warfare, so Michael hightails it to Sicily...The safest place on earth." lol
repeat

I remembered hearing that Vince Gillian of Breaking Bad credited Scarface & The Godfather to being some of the creative influences to the show. After pointing out the color scheme & lighting techniques this movie made, it totally makes sense now! Thanks Earthling Cinema!!
On Earth, we typically peel our oranges before eating them.
Ethan Glover But all the zest goes to waste that way.
+Palace Of Wisdom not necesarly, you can still eat it afterwards.
@@brunocar02 there is no S in afterward. it is neither plural nor possessive.

I just realized... Tupac ate an orange that night in Las Vegas...
but tupac is alive
One True Slash, huh?
Andrey Maybeh.
Come on chat m8
***ORIGINAL*** TheRealGamer!™ No but he wore an orange shirt to the fight the night he got shot
One of my favorite channels on TH-cam, keep up the great work guys. And please make a video about Eyes Wide Shut by Kubrick, one of my favorite movies ever.
Fidelio. :)
+Vicente morales ...favorite movies "ever" you say?Illuminati confirmed.
Vicente morales Brother i just saw it for the first time. WOW. Eyes wide shut was amazing.
Vicente morales Are his work shirt is my favorite movie of all time and then next is the godfather
Is it just me or are his eyebrows growing longer each ep
+Melanie Da Melon
Scary movie 3, the officer's hat scene. :D
+Angelina Mercury omg YAS XD forgot all about that scene ! 😂😂
"Michael's son Tony murders Vito with a watering can" LMAO hahahaha
3:15 His description of nostalgia is so very depressing and so very true. Fuck.
Oh my god i do have to change my car´s oil. Thanks for reminding me obi wan.
+Pablo123456x You posted this 3 months ago. Hope you are still alive..
Eugene Li :) Thankfully I am. I changed the oil short after that video.
My only wish is that these videos were longer.
"The film is permeated with a feeling of nostalgia, an affliction suffered by human brains in an attempt to cover the futility of human existence" That is comedy gold. Thank you.
Maybe take a look at fear and loathing?
Fear and loathing would be awesome. The movie is filled with depth like the American Dream and hypocrisy.
Michael Franklin "Two humans alter their brain chemistry for a weekend. Normally this would be enjoyable for most humans, but these are professionals, ensuring that they experience inexplicable horrors and undergo the most challenging of encounters with their primitive perception of the world using their paltry five senses. Hilarity ensues as they repeatedly nearly puncture or electrocute their frail human blood-filled bodies, have sex with an under aged human female, and continue to inadvisably alter their primitive meat-brains."
Can you do Hidden Meaning of Goodfellas, the other mob movie?
yes please.
Why haven't you done Blade Runner yet?!? Do Blade Runner!!!
***** Or Brazil!!!
Damian Reloaded Braaaziiilll!
Damian Reloaded But first, BLADE RUNNER!!!!
I wasn't just yelling Brazil, I was singing it.On a more serious note though both Brazil and Blade Runner would be interesting since they both have multiple versions that change them both quite a bit. Like the unicorn thing in Blade Runner and the multiple endings of Brazil.
I've only just discovered this, so much fun, but there are actually a few valid points in these clips.
+nictheartist Yeess like the door thing. Its absolutely spot on, wow.
+PoloBoyMal Also, Personalised Horse Head - ideas for the next Valentine's Day?
nictheartist Sorry, how do you mean?? :)
It's should be noted that Janus was the Roman god of portals and doorways. Another feature of the god?
He was two-faced.
I love Earthling Cinema! Garyx Wormuloid needs to host an episode bi-weekly!
Boyz n the Hood Please
likenem Seconded. That movie is definitely worth alien analysis.
Oranges are the symbol of the medici and the medici was the original mob, so maybe the oranges in the move have to do with that.
The Medici family was not the original mob and their symbol has nothing to do with oranges.
Apparently he oranges were put there by the cinematographer to add a little color to the scenes.
Simply amazing commentary with a great sense of humor. I love this!
Do Team America!
Philly Cheese hell yeah
Fioresi Films YES
No
Triple A
If I remember correctly, the film did have some pretty good political subtext.
Such examples as mocking America and foreign policies. Vulgar, but honest.
Wisecrack please make this
This is no doubt the funniest and best episode yet.
The Truman Show or The Shining would be interesting. :)
Wyatt Stake no!!! every shinning analysis always gets way too crazy
I just found this TH-cam channel about two hours ago and I cannot stop watching the videos on it safe to say this is my new favorite channel. Subbed.
Hadn't noticed the "orange" symbolism, but now i remember. Johny Olla came to Michael's house in the beginning of Godfather part 2 and brought an orange from Miami and then Michael was almost assassinated. So cool
How about an episode of Thug Notes on the Godfather novel?
***** They did make one about Fifty Shades, so...
***** I disagree. The novel is one of my favorite books. It has the line " One good lawyer with a briefcase can steal more than 100 men with guns." Plus the novel goes into the backstory of Vito. To each's own I suppose.
***** The novel may've been "mediocre", but it was entertaining.
The book had to MUCH JOHNNEY FONTAINE!
lolololol
the best and funniest movie analysis i've seen, since the Mr. Plinkett reviews! keep up the good work!
Your channel is the best thing on TH-cam. Thank you.
Great video! Only wish they were longer.
Love the nonchalant delivery of this.
Great video!
But it's seriously time that you guys do Blade Runner!!!!
Superb as usual. Congrats on the new show
I believe the oranges are a reverence to one of the Sherlock Holmes novels were someone receives orange pits from his American enemies and is killed shortly after
New WiseCrack show!? Can't wait!
That's one of my favorite lines in a video, "Sicily, the safest place on Earth". Pure gold.
Bro...u gon make me too aware when I eat oranges, I'll be at work!!
You sir, have made my weekend. MORE EARTHLING CINEMA!!!! MORE MORE MORE!!!!!
Missed Earthling Cinema. Great video!
Also to note that Michael's family is always with cloathes in dark colours while Kay is the quite opposite. And the big easter egg in Luca Brasi's death, in the glasses of the bar have fishes.
awesome work guys keep it up
As always, awesome!
This particular series is absolutely hilarious and I only recently discovered this channel and enjoyed the thug series many of the videos are insightful but are comedic at the same time and seem to have taken long periods of time to make clearly by the quality and the writing of these videos and I very much enjoy them thank you very much for providing interesting content that satisfies a large audience.
Now I need to watch them all again, thanks Wisecrack.
Vito was killed spraying his tomatoes
Another great video! Thank you for doing these.They always get me laughing! Please do Eyes Wide Shut!
I love your clip mate. Super interesting! I never noticed any of what you mentioned.
He bit into that orange like a boss.
God, I love these :D best videos/channel on TH-cam!
I love these videos!
It is always a good day when a new Earthling Cinema is released.
thats...not how you eat oranges ._.
The new show premiers on my birthday! That means it's destined to be awesome!
That was hilarious. So funny :D ! Just subscribed :D
Learning new things with Wisecrack
this was amazing
The thing about the colors and the oranges is so cool!
I think an episode about Birdman would be amazing
I only wish the videos were longer
Dimitri Bitu Sometimes it's better to hit the high comedic points and get off the stage. I'd rather have 5 hilarious minutes than 10 pretty funny ones. But yes, this is comedic gold and it's only natural to want more.
ok, this one got me...I'm a subscriber!
"in a bid to be taken seriously michael's son anthony murders vito with a watering can"
bahahahahahahah
God your videos are soooo entertaining! It's just you have great theories and stuff and you always sprinkle some humor in there especially with this video when you talk about nostalgia and how the Baptism thing is consequence , I don't really remember when I laughed that hard lol
I honestly don't find this funny, but thanks for highlighting The Godfather footage. It brings back some memories.
This movie was surprisingly good not just a boring 3 hr period piece but watching and appreciating Goodfellas elevated this movie further.
Nice guys!
I have a feeling that this is EXACTLY how people will view the movie in 500 years. This is genius!
absolutely brilliant and funny!
These are my favorite videos on the youtube
Awesome!
"Sonny is killed at toll booth, for not having exact change"
Wormuloid's bro could do music interpretation. He's got millions of bros I bet. One of them has a collection of "8 tracks" and "audio cassettes".
“Is it, is it true?”
“No.”
ICE COLD
"Gerald Ford Coppola", man that's so funny I.....
This is really great. Please do American Beauty or The Ring. Oh, the possibilities!
Hey guys, you're one of my favourite channels on TH-cam and I'm simply asking could you guys possibly do a Hidden Meaning video on both "Once Upon a Time in America" and "Raging Bull". Those films haven't received the amount of attention that they deserve on TH-cam and I think you guys could do a great analysis of the symbolism and metaphors in these two classic movies. Cheers, bye!
Holy fuck these are just so good ! They just make so much sense , even if he sais them in a trolly way ! These are brilliant . Thank you !
Finally! A cogent synopsis you can trust!
Ben A Don Vito was eating a tomato from his garden not a stinking orange.
+Penny Dog It was an orange.
He sits at a table in the garden and cuts the orange peel and put it in his mouth and scared his grandson.
in the wedding scene, we also see Tessio reach for an orange, literally crossing Mrs Corleone.
rofl... the comment about the Italian cars is so true! Those cars really do need some TLC.
What about superhero psychology? Or whatever that was called?
Howdy. Pop Psych is on hiatus to make way for Boss Bitches of History. Don't want to make the channel crowded with too many shows at one time...
Wisecrack More Wisecrack... that sounds horrible... Wouldn't want more of my favorite channel. Teasing aside, I understand what you mean; don't want to over-saturate people with too much.
Wisecrack Too many cooks will ruin a stew. Just so you know I'd watch one of these every day twice a day if you made em :)
Wisecrack You couldn't possibly put out more content than I would watch.
Wisecrack Can we get an ETA on the return of that show? I loved it.
4:20 LMAO I had to look that one up but nice one Wormuloid!
Gratuitous mastication. I thought Earthling Cinema was above that.
Do a hidden meaning in Apocalypse Now pls
Was this supposed to entertain me or blow my mind?
I'm still wondering
Holy shit I love this series! It always blows my mind and makes me look at movies and their metaphors in a completely different light! Keep it the fuck up!!!
Hey, Wisecrack, have you considered doing a segment on music? I think we kinda take it for granted these days, but I'm sure there's some really interesting pieces, even in modern pop culture.
Grandson run through the frame 'like he don't give a fuck' LOL
Birdman. For the love of God do birdman. If it's already on here someone let me know tho
Yes
"Michaels son murders Vito with a watering can."
Fucking lmao.
Your eyebrows are fabulous!
I think this movie is also a story about The American Dream and capitalism.
Reading through the book for the first time, I got a larger impression of it just being commentary on the corrupt. Obvious, I know, but it's interesting to think about.
In the beginning of the book, especially in the first section, Mario Puzo builds up a kind of "golden image" of the Mob, where it seems like it's better than the government or anything else. It seems like the right path. This is especially reinforced when we see the "lawful" side in Hollywood, were men's careers are ruined because they angered one man and the leaders are all pedophiles who see no value in anything but themselves.
You get to thinking that the mob is great, nothing beats the mob, you wish the mob ruled instead of the government--and then comes the deconstruction. The "golden image" is built up to its peak in the section that shows Vito's past and the reasons that he became the leader of the biggest mafia family in New York and likely the country. Between his seemingly good reasons and Mario's selective scenes that he shows you, you end up loving the mob. Mario does a good job in not showing much of anything that the Corleones do wrong, without good reason. We see the other families murder with no regard for anything else and do awful things, and we see Hollywood producers alluding to raping children, but the Corleone's don't do anything that can't, from a perspective, be seen as righteous. However, after we finally get to that peak Mario slowly eases you into the realization that the Corleones are just as bad as everyone else.
Slowly but surely we see everyone become more vengeful and manipulative. You go from seeing Vito as a nice man who helps people out and makes a little money on the side to a heartless crook who manipulates everyone around him. You go from seeing Michael as the angel of the family who doesn't want to join in the crime until someone's hurt his family, to the person in the book most adamant about seeking revenge, the most hate-filled character in the story. Mario, instead of saying "it was taken care of" like he does in the first part of the story and following, describes in detail the crimes of the Corleone family more and more as you reach the end of the book until it culminates to the finale and you hate everything about everyone in the book. Michael is as awful as his father, who you come to realize was an evil man. Johny Fontane no longer seems empathetic, but pathetic as you see he lets his friend die when advised to help him. In the end of the story, the only ~~living~~ person you end up feeling bad for at all is Kate, because she has to live her life "not knowing" that her husband is a criminal and a murderer. She knows, but she doesn't want to, and she doesn't ask. Kate follows in Mrs. Corleone's footsteps and becomes a quiet housewife who prays for her husband's soul every single day.
Because it's either look at it that way or it's just a 1970's version of Fifty Shades of Grey with halfway decent story and more murder.
Nathaniel Andersen - Happy New Year Nathaniel!! I love your breakdown!! Kate was long-suffering and she knew about the business but she LOVED the heck outta Michael!! I believe Michael was worse then Vito. Michael changes all the way to the dark side when Appollonia dies and Frebrezio, his bodyguard, betrayed him. It was no turning back then! Sonny was a hothead! Fredo was an idiot and Tom wasn’t Italian so the Family was doomed anyway you look at it. Tell me whatcha think 🤔!!
I want more of this video
Keep your friends close...but your enemies closer...
I'd love to see Jurassic Park because I'm kind of a dinosaur fanatic. Oh well.
Also, I'm REALLY looking forward to the new show. Keep being awesome and coming up with cool ideas, Wisecrack crew!
You MUST probe the Vanilla Sky!
"And murder Vito with a watering can" comedy gold!
Boss Bitches of History sounds like fun! I'll be sure to watch. :)
Best channel ever is getting more shows. Good times.... also Bladerunner
This was brilliantly funny.
this channel gives me life. so much fun! thanks guys - can't wait for boss bitches of history! :D
