Discussing Tony and Christopher's relationship in The Sopranos

[N*E*R*D]

Re-watching The Sopranos and I never understood why Tony let so much go only to deal with it on his own terms.

Spoiler

All the shyt that Chrissy did and he goes out like that?

All the bullshyt he left Ralph get away with until it came down to a fukking horse...to kill him. Nah let's not off him for beating a woman to death that was pregnant.

Confusing...but great fukking show....wish it was still on

My other favorite moments....

Bobby giving Tony to the lumps for talking greasy about Janice.

AJ fukking that hot piece of Purteo rican ass

Uncle June shooting Tony in the gut

Paulie and Chrissy getting stuck in the woods with that crazy Russian

Meadow grew up so beautifully...

chris was a fukk up and sooner or later
he would have costed family members serious
time in jail or worst.

 

[Suge Knight]

Cause Chris was back on that shyt, plus he was mad weak and coulda be an informant at some other point.

He couldn't take the shame and that car crash was an easier plausible way of taking him out, without getting anyone involved

 

[jwinfield]

Yup

He saw that tree branch going through that baby seat and realized he had to go

yeah that was tony's reason, ''a weak, lying drug addict'', and he was mad at chris for tonys portrayal in the movie.

how tony had that dream where he told his doc he killed chris and why, then using and editing the details of the dream to justify to his doc irl why he dont care chris is dead.

c/s

nah you nikkas making excuses. The writers didnt know wtf they were doing and just randomly killed him. That whole 6th season was wack as fukk with no direction. They wasted hella episodes on fillers. fukk them.

If u have to actually ask that question then ur not too bright sir


dude was a liability and constantly lied to him about being clean. If you lying to him about being clean then what else might he also lie about sometime in the future? A coke/heroin head is not in his right state of mind and would probably go to the cops with the quickness or do sum other dumb shyt. Dude gave him numerous chances and physically forced him into rehab. Christopher was supposed to take over the family after Tony because Tony wanted AJ to have no parts in that life. Dude threw it all away over nose candy

The dumb nikka got them into a fukkin car accident because he was so high and could have potentially killed his newborn baby because you saw what that tree did to the baby seat.


Tony did the right thing IMO

 

[re'up]

Tony was a sociopath, or at least close, his thin justifications for Chris murder, remember him going on and on about the by seat, were just his defense mechanisms to rationalize his behavior. The way Tony always did. He killed Chris because their relationship was failing, though not altogether broken, the resentment and bitterness between the both of them was their for years, worse after the Ade incident. And Tony was also really affected by Chris portrayal of him in that 'Cleaver' movie. He thought Chris despised him, and would never forgive him for a number of things. And he was probably right, but if Tony wasn't Tony, they could have worked through, Chris still loved him, and looked up to him, crazy. All Tony had to do was be there for Chris, but the selfish, self deluded fukk couldn't do it. Look at Tony's treatment of Chris at his barbecue. And then christening.

Also, if you watch closely, Tony kind of realized Chris is coked up, in those minutes right before the crash. Chris is distracted, fidgety, talking weird, but Tony, is talking about 'Smell the roses' and trying to see the positive, but when Chris confesses, Tony just methodically kills him, and solves a number of his problems. It wasn't really business why Tony killed him, it was pettiness, and resentment, anger, jealousy, disappointment, disillusionment. Sad way to go.

The tree branch through the baby seat was the last straw. Tony was about family most of all. And Chris was becoming a risk not only to the mob family, but also to his own children. Tony put the life of the child before the life of Chris'. That simple really.

This pretty much.

Thanks for the spoiler, a$$hole

lol at some of you falling for Tony's self serving bullshyt. I mean, the tree was a factor, but it more just drove the point home, gave him that extra incentive, plus twisted justification. Hence, Tony bringing that shyt up every ten minutes, which was darkly hilarious.

 

[Tom]

reup is the type of nikka to get merked or ratted out by his own mans who he should have taken care of a long time ago if he had the balls




Tony did what John Gotti should have did to Sammie the bull, dude was a wise man who learned from past gangsters mistakes

A blind man could see Chris was on self-destruct but the way he went out...and the relationship he had with Tone.

Would have rather he went out by other means...Tony has a weird way of disposing people.
