what gangster would you want to be?

would you want to be scarface (tony montana)
or henry hill any other true or fictionis people
from the movies or real life?

Hey, great topic! My first choice would be Sam "Ace" Rothstein just because he was FREAKIN rich! My second choice would be Tony Montana, and my third choice was be Jimmy "The Gent" Conway!

I would be Santino Corleone..Live Hard, Die Hard..lol..woohoo!2

i think, the kid form 'a bronx tale'

No doubt about this one, Vito Corleone. He loved everyone, and everyone loved him. What a great Family he had.

i'd also want to be vito corleone, especially when hes portrayed by de niro. a fair man, wantin justice for his friends. i love the way he tries to be fair with fannucci, and then kills him!! thats my fave scene in the whole trilogy.

I think it's hard to imagine yourself being someone else, because if you had his/her character it wouldn't be you anymore, but if you stayed yourself it wouldn't be the gangster anymore...

if this all doesn't count, I would say a "funny guy" like Tommy D (Pesci in Goodfellas) would be cool...

oh and of course Frederico Corleone ("banging Cocktaill waitresses 2 at the time)

btw, Buikie, welcome to the board! another Dutchie, our groupe is getting influential!

[img]http://images.google.com/images?q=tbn:fPux9lBCXlEC:cuisung.unige.ch/gif/crown.gif[/img] My favorite gangster is the man who kicked the mob out of Cuba. All the greats from Capone to Gambino are dead or locked up, but "Ole man Castro, he jess keeps rollin' along"

Antonio Montana or Carlo Gambino

Definetly Tony Montana.

Lucky Luciano or Carlo Gambino

If we are talking about fictional ones i would say either Vito or Michael Corleone. Real ones would be Joe Bonnano cause my mom's dad knew him and i saw his movie and he had a good life.

John Gotti.

Vito Corleone, loved and respected by all people...

I'd have to say the most famous gangster of all time.

Al Capone.

I would want to be Tony Montana!!!!! He is my favorite! Good question!

Sonny from A Bronx Tale or Vito Corleone

Tony Montana

Vito or Micheal

I'd want to be ANY of our politicians in office, they run the country the same way the mafia runs their business.

Their rich as hell but it's legal for them...hmmm maybe thats why they don't like the mafia the government doesn't like competition.

Tommy DeSimone(Tommy DeVito in GoodFellas) or Nicky Spilotro(Nicky Santoro in Casino)... All Pesci characters.

remember, Nicky ended up like nicky from casino---beaten and buried.

And so did Tommy... But they are still awesome.

Tommy got off easy- BTH Bullet Threw Head.

Fast death.


Unlike the savage beating in Casino and being buried alive.

for me its either Jimmy "The Gent" Conway or Ace Rothstein. . .

GoodFella

I knew you were gonna say that, bro!

you saw that coming bro?

GoodFella

Of course! You're my brother! I know you like the back'a my hand!

Sosa in Scarface is considered a gangster right ?

good choice, didn't even think of him

think of who ?

Pablo Escobar Gaviria, richest, most ruthless, most dangerous criminal of all time. And he still loved his family too. Only reason he got iced is because he refused to leave Medellin, Colombia permanently, cuz the Naz- oops I mean the DEA and the Colombian military were gettin' medieval on his ass.

Any of the Moustashe Petes that died of old age outside of prison or any one that is still living and free. The best gangters are the ones that dont't get caught or shot.

It would be pretty cool to be Bullet-tooth Tony from Snatch. He was bad-ass! "...Since your gun has "repilca" written down the side of it, and my gun has "Desert Eagle, point five oh" down the side of it..."

vito corelone/henry hill would be my choice

Pablo Escobar

Jimmy the gent Conway because he had money,
respect,and he was wacking people off and
playing the other wiseguys out in front of
thier wives.he's a stonecold killer with
a heart of gold and money.

Montana, strong character.

Vito Corleone or Carlo Gambino

THAT doesn't interest me too much...

my all-time favorite gangster is tony montana but i'd like to know him more than to be him.

I would have to pick Michael Corleone

Jimmy Conway (burke) he knew how to make money

He was a legend

Tony Accardo aka Joe Batters

He was given the nickname, "Joe Batters", by Al Capone himself after he killed two stool pigeons at a dinner table using a baseball bat. He later went on to succeed Paul "The Waiter" Ricca to head the Chicago Outfit for over four decades (Giancana was more of a figurehead than a real leader) and never spent a night in prison.

Tony Spilotro was the inspiration for Nicky Santoro in Casino.

I would be Lucky Luciano.

Paul Vitti, he's wicked cool,seriously. He's De Niro's coolest character.
