Pretty sure he was losing his mind at that point.
Exactly. He was running on pure rage and adrenaline. And if this wasn't a kids movie also on cocaine.
A lot of villains seem to start out as calm, cool, collected, but have that one specific trigger that completely unhinges them
Yeah but, is there nothing one deals with rising up the ranks like that which wouldn't weed out those prone to becoming that unhinged?
And you'd think one could rise to the rank of PotUS, or state governor, or CEO of multiple tech companies, or Only Funny Guy on Seinfeld without completely self-destructing over insults so petty and inoffensive as to not even constitute a mild inconvenience, but you'd be wrong. The superficial trappings of worldly success are no indicator of spiritual development, my child, but seek the state of being governed by love, and the virtues on which it depends, and all that you need will be yours, and then some.
That was pretty badass looking back. I should watch this again.
I rewatched it not long ago and it surprisingly held up pretty well. Admittedly Oliver was never one of my favorites growing up but it was a fun time.
And I'm not just saying that because I want to frick the dogs.
They knew what they were doing and it worked.
Mafia guys aren't any smarter than your average person, they just aren't afraid to use violence to get what they want.
Yeah, but... high ranking enough to have a limo, and to have an office by the water? How would someone who doesn't know how to keep a level head be useful to have at that rank?
OP do you think the mafia dictates what car each member drives, or what building each occupies? People can just buy things for themselves, you know.
>drive limo along the subway tracks
how is that dumb?
They're designed to propel trains along via the third rail, not to allow limo tires to glide along the top smoothly.
That and you will find your limo getting hit by a train unless you can somehow get it off the tracks; and getting hit by a train yourself unless you get away from said limo well before it gets hit by said train.
Every train spar is a wooden obstacle that the wheels slam into. Possibility of damage to the undercarriage. Break lines, axles, etc. The third rail is electrified, and possibly going to set your tires on fire, if not run electricity your car's internal structure.
And it'd be like driving through the world's worst road bump collection because of the wooden spars.
Not to mention the condition of what you're driving through- junkie garbage thrown away where no one can find it, from diapers to needles to pukebuckets. Rats, rat droppings, who even knows what. The rail service tries to keep the tunnels clean, but you can't stop stupid humans.
Fun Fact:
Pete has the same car as Sykes in Goof Troop.
I wish Disney would go back to making cute girls. They were so good at it
so he was definitely a israelite, right?
No clearly Italian
Bill Sykes is not an italian name.
Let's say it's anglicized from Guglielmo Sica
gayin was the israelite
