9 – Goodfellas – “Funny How?” This is memorable because I can imagine being Henry Hill (Ray Liotta), I’d be pissing my pants!

8 – Sopranos – “Pine Barrens” – I enjoyed the whole episode. Pauly and Christopher visits a Russian friend, Pauly becomes mouthy, and somehow ends up in the snowy Pine Barrens, where they got lost and started turning on each other. This was a funny episode directed by Steve Buscemi, here’s the clip!

5 – Godfather – A scene where Michael tries to get back with Kay, his old girlfriend. This scene was after he disappeared for a year, and came back. I like this scene because it shows how calm, assertive, and convincing Michael is, a trait of a good leader.

3 – Goodfellas – “Spider” gets shot by Tommy for talking back! “What, I’m a good shot!” It looks like Tommy (Joe Pesci) can dish it out, but can’t take it!


2 – Sopranos Finale – Many people hated the way the series ended, some say they felt cheated. I disagree, I think that this is one of the best TV show endings ever. I loved the editing, and the song in the background was just perfect! The best part was not knowing what happened next, my take is that Tony got whacked by the guy with the Members Only jacket (Joe Pesci look-alike). Remember the scene in The Godfather? Michael goes into the restroom, and comes out blazing.

1- Godfather II – Michael orders the hit of his regretful brother, Fredo. Michael had to do make a hard choice for his Family. A very emotional scene because i felt sorry for Fredo, but so did Michael.
