Besides marrying a prostitute, what was his first mistake?

>>82373406
Movie is better than Goodfellas if you don't watch any of the wife bullshit.

>>82373406
Getting involved with organized crime.

Being ruled by the Mid-West mob

>hmm i will make my career dealing with people who will not hesitate to kill me if i fuck up, if they fuck up, if it is to their benefit or if the fucking weather is right.
>hmm i will trust totally untrustworthy thieves, rapists and murderers to conduct themselves in a professional manner.

>>82373406
He should have kept the retard with the relative in the casino commission. No reason to antagonize the people who give you the license to work.

Also having his own TV show and attracting attention was a big mistake.

born a kike

Good luck getting paid if you're abbookie with no clout. In fact as successful as he was, it would be out right competition with the money proper.

>>82373733
Yeah. The cowboy hat asshole actually did a lot of the legwork in jamming them up and eventually destroying them.

Did Nicky deserve this?

>>82373790
*Mob people.

>>82373819
Yes.

>>82373406
In hindsight he was doomed whatever he did.
The corporations had decided to take over the casino industry in Vegas and people like him would be thrown out anyway.

>>82373819
yes

>>82373860
>>82373929
Is it because he fucked the guys wife?

>>82373819
Nicky was a little bitch boy, I just wish Scorsese stuck with his original plan to have Nicky forced to watch his brother get sodomized.

>>82373406
he should have kept that morin permit commissioner's brother in law employed, the consequence of not doing so really came back to haunt him

>>82373948
It's because of everything. Seriously, who didn't he piss off in Vegas? Not to mention the bosses back east.

>>82373480

This, sort of. I don't know what they were thinking: "Hey you know what, let's make Goodfellas, but with daytime tv-tier domestic drama!"

>>82373948
He was a thief, a kidnapper, a torturer and a mass murderer

And no fucking his best friend's wife didn't help

>>82373956

That would have made the movie feel even more unpleasant. I probably wouldn't have watched it again

>>82373967
This, I can't think of a bigger mistake he made other than marrying ginger as OP said.

>>82373956
I think the baseball bats + watching his brother be murdered + being buried partially alive was brutal enough. Ending your movie with a rape scene as the big finale is a great way to fuck up your movie.

>>82373406
Nicky was escalation that wasn't needed pure and simple. Nobody had the balls or authority to tell him to reign it in.

By the time the water tasted funny, upstream it was a pool of shit.

>>82373480
The "wife bullshit" is integral to the story and fucking well executed. Sharon Stone is remarkably good.

>>82374241
I don't think he had a choice in whether or not Nicky came in on the job. Like he said in the movie, Nicky was made, Ace was not. Ironically I think the bosses sent Nicky to protect their investments

shoulda let the gaming commissioners cousin or whatever work there. however, whatever fuckups that kid could cause is nothing compared to the heat nicky and his retard goons brought. he was pretty much fucked no matter what

>>82373819
>voice-over cut off mid-sentence by beating

Brilliant.

Was her death satisfying? Personally I woulda liked to see her get shot in the face

>>82374382
Handsome boys

>>82374460
Casino is a practically a Billy Batts revenge movie.

>>82374382
doesnt he have other kids?

>>82373406
Couldn't loose old ties.

>>82374484
>death by living with blacks
nah its fine

Did that happen to the real brothers. I will google it.

>>82374839
No the were only beaten to death. No sodomy.
I think they even let them pray before the execution.

>>82374602
what do you mean?
his problem was that he was too autistic
