I take it that you recognized that whole scene as a takeoff on "Goodfellas" (when the young kid serving drinks to Joe Pesce was shot. That young kid was Michael Imperioli, and the scene was repeated in this episode of "The Sopranos").


Yeah, I also noticed in season 2 when Tony's Mom dies, the Godfather scene, when they go see the Undertaker. The camera angles etc are the same and he says : I'll use all my powers etc"

The hero and the coward both feel the same thing, but the hero uses his fear, projects it onto his opponent, while the coward runs. It's the same thing, fear, but it's what you do with it that matters. Cus D'Amato
