In the 90's, I grew up with so many Bishops. So easily turned, so fragile, so violent. They're all gone, or in jail now. Great video, perfect analysis.

Facts

[@timothybrown8424]

This dude named Sergio that I worked with was wild so I stopped hanging out with him. His twin brother was G, so I felt like he was trying to compensate and make his own lane. And the sad part is that their dad was a cop. Hopefully he's not trying to be a savage anymore for the sake of respect.

[@_The_Archive_]

Fun Fact: Omar Epps stated in an interview that Tupac wanted to stay in character so much that he would aggressively ask cast and crew to call him "Bishop" instead of Tupac on-set.

[@Jimmy1982Playlists]

Yep... That's method acting. Daniel Day-Lewis took it much farther than that! He broke his rib filming _My Left Foot_ cause he slumped in a wheelchair for so many hours.

[@rellyrell1522]

​@@gi7685 I was going to say this

[@Zeroshiki]

​@@gi7685If he hadn't started up with Suge, half of that shit wouldn't have happened. He still would've rapped about growing up poor and being harassed by the cops, but he wouldn't have been fighting as much as he did. Suge just liked chaos and wanted to be seen as something of a mob boss, he ran a lot of people from the label, especially after Pac died. Nobody wanted to sit there fighting and dying for nothing, but Pac was willing to, probably because of his pride and ego, as well as being so young. As soon as he thought about leaving and getting into filmmaking, he was conveniently killed and never got to grow up and change, like a lot of other rappers from that era.

[@sadetwizelve]

Tupac was ironically the embodiment of a fake thug.

[@apollosungod2819]

Tupac lived in California before coming to NYC and auditioning by chance for Juice which some of the NYC ppl who hate Tupac have made comments about outside NYC ppl coming to make money in NYC and years later in 1999 Black Rob and Puffy made a song making comments like that

[@mandem3426]

That “I am crazy” monologue Bishop gave while he was at the locker with Q always gets me

[@crisdorcas4655]

Unfortunately this is a couple people I know

[@84blizzle]

I think it's worth mentioning that Ernest Dickerson had to reshoot the ending due to studio input. It's on KZbin if you look it up, where Bishop is hanging from the building and tells Q he can't go to jail when he hears the sirens, so he let's himself lose from Q and dies. The point was he'd rather commit suicide than go to jail and end up like his father.

[@AdolphSaxOfficial]

Never knew that, but that sounds like a more powerful ending. To drive home the fact that at his core, Bishop was just a scared kid who gave up long ago.

[@owenfolks6]

​@@AdolphSaxOfficialright, and it would've fit his mentality more. Just as he praised the guy in the movie they were watching for having control over his fate until the very end, I would think Bishop would take a similar route and end his own life purposely by letting go.. as opposed to begging Q to pull him up.

[@jiovanysoltero923]

Top of the world

[@anthonyclark9441]

​@@owenfolks6that's the reason why that Scene was in the Movie in the first place. So it would explain to the audience the choice that Bishop makes at the end. Damn Studios never think about these things when they interfere with a Writer and Director's visions for their work.

[@84blizzle]

@anthonyclark9441 I forget the exact reason why they didn't go for it, but I remember it being one of those things where they felt it was too bleak that he wanted to die.

[@Docmananoff]

That fall from the building actually saved him from the fate of ending up just like his father. The backstory was that his father was molested in prison and Bishop in jail without a gun would be a victim as well. He never found out that Steele lived and told everything, so Bishop had no idea that his life was over at that point.

[@jasonfoley6502]

Which is why the hispanic guy and his cronies always tease him.

[@blove88]

There's actually an alternate ending where Q is trying to pull him up and Bishop doubles down by saying he refuses to go to jail and allows himself to fall. So it lines up.

[@cptfreeman8966]

I must've missed that part wtf

[@Docmananoff]

@@cptfreeman8966 Radamez and the crew were taunting him about it, and it’s a part of the film synopsis but not fully explained in the movie.

He was cold asf for that.

[@jvonte07]

That was actually Raheem’s mother and sister he was consoling and that made that whole scene chilling af

[@brainspin7518]

Yeah. Tupac had great facial acting/expressions. It is the main reason why we got a lot of close ups w/the dialogue throughout this film . Omar was great too.

[@Calicapenergy88]

Yes. I was even afraid of bishop lol 2pac played him well. That was the coldest thing a person could do

[@frankdeleon4209]

Absolute power corrupts absolutely. Simple truth

[@ThatDoesntWorkForMeBrother]

Another character that’s similar to Bishop is Nancy from The Craft. They both came from broken homes, both social outcasts, and both wanted power. Once they both get a taste of power (Bishop with the gun and Nancy with black magic), they descended further into the darkness and were destructive (to their friends and to outsiders alike).

[@darrenkey207]

Damn, that's a good comparison 😮

[@Kay-kg6ny]

Wait that's a great point, all the parallels are there!

[@bena_ipolit]

Another great parallel is Andrew from the movie Chronicle. I actually look at Chronicle like a reboot of Juice lol

Great Connection, I've seen both and never connected those dots. At the same time that's the back story for a lot of antagonists

[@keithpowell1902]

Bishop's story is that he's tired of people messing with him. This happens everyday no matter if you're black, white or whatever. People have a breaking point.

It's not just about being messed with. It's about being seen. How he's seen.

Growing up in the South Bronx and Spanish Harlem in the 90s, this movie did a great job describing the environment at that time. There were a lot of guys I grew up with that were like these characters. Their parents were either on drugs or alcohol so they had to learn to survive by stealing or selling drugs. Tupac did a great job with this character. Now the South Bronx and Spanish Harlem seem like a two whole completely different places from the 80s and 90s. The violence is not as obvious as it used to be.

[@reinhartdagr8108]

The crime in NYC in general is not what it used to be for a plethora of reasons. But for NYC, the spike in murder in the last 3 years is bad and still sad. There’s still Bishops coming up out here and young men dying.

[@ButtersCCookie]

You are absolutely right. It's not as obvious! I spent a couple of years in a Criminal Investigation Unit. All the cases and I have witnessed (3rd party). The Investigators were outstanding. No bullying, no bravado. The perps, weren't calculated or deviant necessarily. A bad day, a thin line. I have never met any other group more evil, than those in Aviation. From Pilot to Mechanics. Homeland Security compared to Federal Aviation Committee. It's NEVER obvious.

Bishop is a representation of so many young boys and young men in society. It was obvious that Bishop was a victim of neglect, outsider, and social isolation from his father’s mental state.

[@curtismatthews3113]

When Raheem handed Bishop that gun, you could see Bishop hold that gun with such power like Thor's hammer was handed to him. Bishop love the feeling of power which it gave him with the gun. He loved how scared Steel looked when he aimed the gun at him. Once he tried to use the same method on Q, which he asked Q "Are you ready to die? Q showing no fear but pure courage says Yeah. Just at that moment, You see the look on Bishop face show signs of disabelief and confusion that Q faced his fear tatic dead on with a gun aimed directly in his face. Near the end when he gets disarmed from Q and drops the gun. You see his power is taken. Now he goes from pursuing Q to running away from him. As the rooftop battle ensues. You notice Bishop always goes for a weapon while facing off with Q. While Q who usess just his fist and who is also wounded by a bullet wound to his arm. First Bishop wields a 2 x 2 wood plank as a weapon to attack Q, then once that was lost. He grabs an iron pipe to defeat Q. Which he also loses after being disarmed again. You can tell Bishop was not a fighter and only was powerful with a weapon.

[@DeeDaKaang1]

I had never heard anyone use the term Juice before this movie, but I believe they named it Juice, because that's what the entirety of Bishops adolescent mind focuses on.....He really wants to be Raheem / Q two guys who are extremely popular and lucky with the ladies. Instead he begins the movie stranded on the bottom of the totem poll barely above Steel. He knows it & uses a weapon as the ultimate equalizer.

That's a great point. Only watched some clips of the movie recently but thought about how Raheem/Q/Steel (maybe) have relationships with women and stand out on their own. Raheem has respect from the neighborhood, Q is a DJ, and Steel is the jokester who cooks with liquor. Bishop seemed like he was lacking something so he chose violence to stand out.

1 scene you see the pecking order of the crew as they're walking in Manhattan together: Raheem and Q are in the front. Bishop and Steele in the back.

Steele is the youngest and the fat kid they Crack jokes on, but at least he provides the crew relief w/ Food and shelter from his parents apartment when they are cutting school. Bishop is rendered useless of the 4. The opening scene w/ him nearly getting jumped by Rademes and his crew, and his mental state makes him moreso a burden then anything. He's a loose cannon and a overgrown child that needs to be watched over. He has no purpose in that crew and needs to stand out. That changes in his mind 1nce he holds that gun

Tupac would’ve become a hell of an actor if he hadn’t been killed. He had such natural screen presence.

[@dmagwaza]

It's ironic that Bishop praised Cody Jarrett for taking his destiny in his own hands at death, yet when it was time for his own death, he was at the mercy of Q.

[@teanmace]

Because he meant to do it.

[@jrgenvellesen7800]

Would love to see a video covering Vergil from Devil May Cry. While he isn't the most sadistic or evil villain out there, the way he pursues power at the cost of both his own humanity and the well-being of others, is fascinating. As well as how his ideology is challenged by both Dante and Nero, both of whom embraced the humanity Vergil rejected for so long.

[@WSendam]

I second this we need him to cover Vergil ❤️

[@MrDHWong1989]

Tupac was quite a talented actor and I really enjoyed the level of dimension he brought to the character of Bishop. Had he lived, it would have been interesting to see what other acting roles he could have played as he grew older.

[@Reyma777]

Bishop falls into the darkness during his final moments never to return. Even had Bishop survived he would have always been trapped in darkness as he fell too far into selfishness, and criminality. Excellent Villain analysis as always . Villain Profile Suggestions: 1. Frank Underwood/Francis Urquart (House of Cards) 2. 001 (Squid Game) 3. Petyr Baelish (A Song of Ice and Fire) 4. Frank Gallagher (Shameless US 5. Marty and Wendy Byrde (Ozark) 6. Dudley Smith (L.A Confidential) 7. Lorne Malvo (Fargo) 8. Idi Amin (Last King of Scotland) 9. Kratos (God of War series) 10. Eric Cartman (South Park) 11. Father (Full Metal Alchemist) 12. The Sons of Anarchy Gang

[@ButtersCCookie]

Malvo, Petyr and Shameless ain't evil. Varga was evil.

[@JustTooDamnHonest]

A person's environment can make or break them and this film showed just how real it is for this type of stuff happens in real life and Bishop's death is also symbolic like he falls into the abyss of darkness consuming his soul in the end.

[@po801_4]

Syndrome is looking rather different from the last time I saw him.

[@TheWanderer1000000]

This has to be the best portrayal of a villain ever. In all of movie history and I mean it. You could never beat this movie in sympathizing with the villain and wanting him to survive. Even hoping that Bishop would stop the madness and his lust for revenge that everyone feels at least once in their life. I believe Revenge is the D.N.A. of humanity. Everyone that has ever been wronged this badly, may become like Bishop. It's up to you to stop. Only you can stop. Even though in my opinion, he was completely justified for killing that gangster.

[@BigHenFor]

Revenge is not the sum of humanity. Revenge is not the sum of being human. Revenge is the distortion of the human drive to relate oneself to others, as the response to rejection from others. It's the dysfunctional response to not being seen as legitimate and ones self worth being tied to that. So, Revenge is a choice to agree that you are not legitimate, and won't be legitimate unless you act as those who reject you. Revenge is the choice not to choose your own agenda, not to recognise your own worth, on your own terms, but to buy into another's distorted vision of reality. To accept victimhood, but then to create more victims. Humans have the capacity for good or for evil, but we live in ways that deny how we co-create our reality. We barely live consciously. We follow when we should lead, and lead when we should follow. By not questioning ourselves and the world, we can't see straight. Question more.

[@redrocket604]

In one of the deleted scenes, in the finale, Bishop purposely let go of Q's hand, saying "I'm not going to jail."
