>The Mafia is fricking COOL!
>Wow look at out how BADASS these gangsters are!
>DAMN, these tough rebels are glamorous, even their jail cells are COOL!
>Huh? Oh no way, this movie is about how BAD the Mafia is, it's definitely NOT about how COOL, TOUGH, STRONG, GLAMOROUS, FUNNY, AND RICH these guys are, no way!
ikr
GOODfellas? More like BADfellas amirite?

Mafioso self inserter detected
yes but ketchup marinara
Why didn't he just make his own?
They wouldn't let him have razors so he could slice the garlic paper thin
>>Just ignore how the mafia constantly involves brutal murder and betrayal
Not OP but you really don't think even this is aestheticized?
Kevin Nash was raped at gunpoint
>you really don't think even this is aestheticized
He won't address it
It's aestheticised for artistic sake, perhaps, but that's different to glamourised. It may look cinematic at time, but it's still harsh and offputting when contrasted to the parts of the lifestyle made to look glamorous. There's nothing appealing about the deaths of Spider, Morty, Stacks or Batts.
>erm methinks thou lackest media literacy, good sir
shut the frick up, anon. Marty knows exactly what he's doing. He IS glamourizing the mob and criminality in general. He is a piece of shit human being and an overrated director
Are you suggesting there aren't parts of the lifestyle that are glamorous? Would it have been disingenuous if his day-in-the-life story didn't address that?
Couldn't happen to me.
>Couldn't happen to m-
>me when I arrive at any party
You must be severely disliked
Who are you quoting?
Being a gangster is cool. Cope about it all you want, everyone knows it's true.
the mafia IS cool, the mafia IS fun, but sooner or later you're gonna have to murder others in order to not get killed or thrown in jail.
You had to murder someone to even become a made guy in the first place
was ray liotta even a made guy?
No he wasn't
Same problem war movies have.
>War is cool! Weapons and explosions everywhere!
>The brotherhood, forming lifelong bonds from suffering together!
>Oh no way man war is like bad and stuff people die and are sad
I never thought about that, but that's pretty obvious in retrospect. Frick movies.
I feel like i have this weird blood bond with the dudes i served with in military. Like they are my family, like if i wouldn’t die for them i would be a horrible human being.
I feel the same way about my fellow forklift operators. We put our lives on the line every day. If that's not family, I don't know what is.
Damn, where can I get one of these shirts? Seems like a great way to ensure absolutely no one tries to talk to you in public.
The idea is that you try to not to die in a war, and try to keep your mind in tact. If you can do that it's great.
I feel like the glamorous parts aren't even close to worth the shit they do.
EH OH IM RIPPIN OFF FRENCH NOH OVA HERE
You really are a funny poster, OP!
Frick Robert de Nigro
none of this happened
henry hill was a liar
Who you calling a liar?
Anyone who prefers this over The Godfather is a brainlet
I like when the movie cuts like 7 years of Henry's life out but acts like a week has past
Nah, The Godfather is exactly what OP is complaining about.
>Huge tasteful mansion instead of ugly suburban house
>tasteful suits instead of guido shit
>Da Family, Michael, Da Family
>Da family doesn't double cross each other all the time(yeah right)
>Eyyy, no drugs, leave dat for the moolies(yeah right)
FRICK ALL MAFIA SCUM
>Oh N-
yeah I find mobslop sickening for this reason. it's all a gay boomer fantasy
It's time to stop posting, Mr. Chase
Frick terroni. I shit on the mafia, they are lower than the shit from a dog's ass. Their wives are unsatisfied and their daughter's are the prostitutes of the first Black person pimp they can find. Made men are the prostitutes of livestock, arabs, and other animals. Mafiosi are beneath the excrement of a pig. I shit on the mafia.
