Yeah but there's still little focus on Tony Soprano. We wanted to see how TONY rose to the top. In the first season he was already a capo. Show him hustling like Christopher did. Show when he made his bones. It's still so much both versions are lacking when it comes to Tony. I can think of plenty constructive criticism. It's not as perfect as you make it out to be. Oh and it would be perfect if they added the card game Tony (if he didn't have a panic attack) and the guys would have robbed. It would tie in Jackie Jr trying to rob the card game in the series.

I would say that was definitely a lottt more solid Kino! It'd be interesting filming the scene where Dickie loses it and starts the riot, I think that would be challenging to film, but is doable. As an important scene you'd have to nail showing the crowd escalation and Dickie's flip from cool wise guy to raging mobster monster. I still feel like Junior should have had more of a specific final trigger in deciding to kill Dickie, than just a laugh after a slip and fall. Definitely something a writer would flesh out. The slip and fall embarrassment to murder of a made man just doesn't work for me as this is. And why wouldn't the crew potentially think it's Harold that got Dickie? Despite what Junior says about Jilly Ruffalo. Also I wish there was at least one touch of the supernatural in this all to really capture the Sopranos spirit. Like the house from Tony's dreams and coma. But all in all a great "How they should have done it"!

[@_Yuurt]

I would also add in Johnny going to jail just like it happened in the movie, which would further cement Dickie's relationship with Tony And on the reason Dickie and Joanne get into a fight, which would be him drinking and seeming drunk, in addition to not caring for Chrissie as much. I don't see why Joanne would bring up Tony tho

Newark riots and Harold it's something completely unimportant. ruins the entire film by wanting to build another parallel narrative that doesn't talk about sopranos.

I like how your version puts a lot of the different pieces together, which was missing from the original movie. WhIle I was watching the scene where Dickie is disposing his father's body, I was expecting him to dump him in the middle of the riots and make it look like he had been murdered by the african american protesters, which would then escalate the conflict between them and the italian americans. It could have also added some more depth to the film as it would give the opportunity to explore how Dickie deals with being responsible for escalating a tension between the two groups.

He did. What Junior did woulda cause a lot of beef in the family. Dickie wasn't made but it was explained he was bringing the in the most money out of everyone. Killing a guy like that without justification/permission would put Junior in the bad books with his higher ups and he himself may be killed. For example, Lefty Rosenthal was Jewish but he ran the mob casinos in Vegas. He made the mob so much money that he was untouchable. Attacking him would be like attacking a boss. While not on the same level, Dickie made his family a lot of money, which in a way made him more important than many made men.

[@CallofFreaky]

The black side of the story felt more like a Mafia 3 movie than a part of a sopranos movie to me. The whole time, to me it just reminded me of Mafia 3 and felt more like that game than anything. Especially when Harold was working with the Italian mob and it’s clear there’s tension

[@egoborder3203]

Not a bad rewrite! I can't think of any specific ideas for this movie, probably because the whole thing felt unnecessary. I would have loved Chase making a prequel film (I really love his movie 'Not Fade Away') but that's not what we got. I don't see how a movie that incorporates a black narrative can relate to The Sopranos, a series that for 7 years lacked a black central character.

Junior, in truth, never had the makings of a varsity athlete or the mobster equivalent of a varsity athlete, but he knew the rules well enough to know the consequences for killing a made man without going through proper channels.

I like this, a lot. I'm pretty impressed lol Nice work. I always took the fact that Zelman and Maurice said they renounced violence to mean they advocated violent revolution, like many revolutionary organizations of the time, not that they necessarily used it. But I like this version too 👍 I'd just add too that Anthony Imperiali was a controversial figure even back then and probably no more so than among Italians and Sicilians. At this point (and to some degree still today, like with a lot of my family) Southern Italians and Sicilians didn't/don't consider themselves as "white" (Michael Imperioli even said this in a Talking Sopranos episode and his family was from a totally different area, so this is clearly not uncommon and even less so back then) so "Keep Newark White" wouldn't be much of a rallying call for em. I know most of my family would have opposed him and they wouldn't have been alone. I'm "mixed" Sicilian and black because when my family came over they went south to escape the bs of the City and ended up subject to Jim Crow Laws and lived, worked, and socialized with the kids of former slaves sharecropping til they ran back to NYC and lived in mixed areas of immigrants and southern black folks. This wasn't all that long before this era. It's mad complicated and most people don't seem to really understand it, but I am living proof that Anthony Imperiali types were not the norm and didn't have anything like widespread support. Unfortunately the situation was bad for a lotta our relatives that came over and some chose to sell out their culture to assimilate and in doing so were some of the loudest bigots around to gain acceptance from the "white" majority. But not all did. And sadly the ones that refused to do so get erased more often than not. Also, Zelman is a Jewish civil rights guy, not sure why he'd intern for Imperiali? Or if Imperiali would even have him?

[@forgetaboutitwillya5702]

Bruh. During the Newark riots Italians were against the blacks rioting in Newark. Imperioli would definitely fit the narrative in this movie. To say Italians wouldn't be for Imperioli during that time is dumb. Most Italians from that time hated blacks anyways. Stick to slip and fall school kid.

[@smeller1214]

alright man silvio was always said to be older than tony, he's like 10 years older than tony

[@DLHarv]

Saints of Newark gets a pass for a couple three reasons- 1 everything covid era released has been garbage 2 it’s sopranos, you are supposed to hate it for a bit 3 *redacted via youtube*

[@r3mdh]

10:54 - THIS! Must include the pastor and his son. Great idea! 👍🏻

[@Sernival]

This movie rewrite captures everything about Sopranos, even the black glorification intentional or not, it's an overlooked part of the show.

[@Rock4UNow]

How could it be "an overlooked part of the show" that was about Italians.? That's like Scarface being about Cubans.

[@gvozdenkuronja7414]

What does black glorification mean? That film's portraiture of Afro-Amer. is glorified compared to the tv show? I'm really asking, not trying to provoke or insult enibody (I'm not from us)

[@j.rivera6402]

Harold’s character was irrelevant. The story should have revolved around Young Tony, Silvio, Paulie with observations from Dickie, Uncle June, and Johnny Soprano. All the extra shit was stupid.

[@matthewsalas3014]

I still can't believe they didn't show feech get robbed

[@pinkmark4047]

It’ll be in the sequel

[@anthonyabate2248]

This Movie isn’t a “bad” movie, It’s just that we hold The Sopranos to sucha high standard. I still think considering how many “Main Plots” this movie had it’d be better as a mini-series

[@WheelChairwayToHeaven]

There could have been that shit with the Columbians or Old man Baccala being the Terminator but we got Harold and a def jam poetry session.

[@hissnakeissolid2827]

Tbh a big change I'd do to the og movie is if silvio wasnt in it and paulie did all the dialogue that silvio did

[@jaypoole8056]

I'm not even halfway into this and this is the film I want to see.

[@Whiteboykun]

6:55 the riots happened because some cops dragged a black taxi driver out of his cab and beat him. Also the racial tensions, etc. GET IT RIGHT

This movie should have been made 10 years earlier. Of course, Gandolfini the younger wouldn't have been old enough...

[@AceMitten99]

Where’s this movie Kino cause this would have been sooo much better!!

[@bujoodoo1]

Your version rocks, and I do think this is a perfect version, it just needs good dialogues and exacts (who exactly was Harold’s friend, who did the African Americans Kill, etc) but story wise it’s literally perfection

[@tomrooney6709]

I dont see how Satriale's was mob run in 1967. wasn't there an episode depicting how Johnny Boy took control of the pork store in the 1970s through old man Satriale's gambling debts? Johnny cuts off his finger and later on its said Satiale killed himself.

[@Buugzy]

Idk i think Chase was doped out of his mind… I guess he’ll say “The Many Saints of Newark is Canon”

[@imnothappyaboutthis3596]

Bro i dont understand how they let things like this happen i get they are little details but the show itself was built on tiny details that brought the whole thing together i know the show came out 20 years ago but couldn’t the writers at least rewatch the show so there wouldn’t be so many plotholes?

[@vili1234]

You have made new video again. Thank you!

[@DomozoveoGZ]

I thought your version was much better than the movie, but I would also make it so that Dickie and Harold were childhood friends like in the movie, so that there's more emotional weight to their conflict

[@petalflowers4765]

Excellent work! Thanks to you, I now understand this movie. You make it “ flow”. You also piqued my curiosity about the real history of Newark during that era. I am currently doing research on it . I believe that your talents and insight has opened the door to deeper analysis and appreciation for this film. 👍

[@eddiehanley4258]

I wish this movie went into Dickey's drug use since that's such a core component of who Christopher is and Dickies backstory yet they never go into it

[@Buugzy]

I guess Dickie being a junkie was just rumors from The Sopranos smdh

[@TruthSpeaker94]

Christopher used his Dad’s drug use as a justification for his. A rumour started by the black hole that is Livia Soprano. It implies Christopher’s life could have taken a different trajectory.

[@eddiehanley4258]

@@TruthSpeaker94 I agree with that, and I am willing to make it work because I love The Sopranos, but that is her retroactive continuity thing rather than something that should have been true from the start. But I agree with you that I'm willing to make it work because I love the series. It's just something that should have been addressed one way or the other.

[@FernandoRivera-lu1nm]

This was a great watch & definitely improves on the original story.

[@noahsherwood2445]

One thing I didn't get was I thought Silvio was supposed to be Tony's age, not 25 pushing 40 in the movie.

[@MS-pd7fc]

Silvio is 9 years older than Tony on the original sopranos show

[@tommythompson7941]

Jersey boy. Born and raised. Your channel is impressive.

[@WallKenshiro]

I know I'm late for this party but I've only just seen this right now, and I have to say this story would've given the movie much more of an actual point, and also sounds a lot more entertaining and engaging. The only things the actual movie gave us was some great performances, and somewhat showed that the ball that Harold got rolling eventually resulted in the broken down, drug addled ghetto sides of Newark that we saw in the show. It also kinda showed the beginnings of the decline of the mafia, and that it was Junior who killed Dickie. So it was basically illustrating the same point the show already did, that organized crime in general is nothing but a f'd up and parasitical virus orchestrated by a bunch of greedy, neurotic, sociopathic f'k ups. I somewhat liked it at first (I think because of the main performances) but second time it fell totally flat with me. This story however, sounds like a well thought out Scorsesean saga of the show's historical past that could also stand alone as it's own thing, and something that would've better stood up to further scrutiny upon multiple viewings.

[@nickk7425]

I think Kinos version of the Many Saints definitely seems more authentic and true to the Sapronos. I watched the Many Saints of Newark recently, and the movie really just seemed like a black lives matter propaganda piece. Another problem In the movie that i noticed was the age of Pussy and Silvio Dounte was incorrect. Silvio and Puss are supposed to be around the same age as Tony but in the many Saints of Newark they are 10 to 15 years older than him...

[@uggostinko6914]

1: cut out all the black plot. The mob in that area at that time never had beef with the black factions, it was added for some lame woke trash

[@urstillaklown0843]

It was a disgrace how they ended the movie with Harold coming out on top over Moltisanti, while The Sopranos theme is playing in the background. Slap in the face
