Has anybody else notice that the hit on Vito and the events that follow are very similar to the sequence of events surrounding the hit on the COmission in GF III?
I say that because this is the sequence of events for the hit on Vito. He is picking out fruit, he sees his assailents and then runs, fruit falls, he gets shot. Michael makes his bones, comes up with a fool proof plan to take out Solozzo, does it and Vito recovers.
In GF III, just before the hit, fruit starts to roll in abandon, caused by the helicopter's turbulance that's hitting the building. The hit on the commision takes place. Michael has a diabetic attack following this event, undoubtably due to the stress of event and the dread he has of being sucked back in, is hospitalized, goes into a coma and may or may not survive. (although this is different than being hit by bullets follow me on this one). In a very similar way as Michael did, Vincent discusses with Connie and Al Neri in the hospital chapel that hitting Zasa is the best way to go. Concocts an ingenous plan, that Neri and Connie both overlook goes for it, takes out Zasa. Michael survives and as Michael did, Vincent proves himself as Michael did with Solozzo.
