Trying to say Tony had a high iq and just didn't apply himself. That this makes him a natural leader?

Did they not know Al Capone had a low iq and basically was dumb?

Seems to me some low iq dumb people worshipping dudes like Al Capone and living in a fantasy world.

Did you even watch the series? It was mentioned multiple times Tony is quite smart and has great leadership qualities. Top of my head, his coach also said the same thing. The movie is just reiterating that

The impressions of characters as their younger selves look great so far, notably young Tony and Vera as young Mrs. Soprano. Also cool to learn Jon Bernthal is in this.

Um ok? What does that have to do with Tony Soprano lol

I 2nd that BCS is better than Breaking Bad (even though BB is an all-time great show itself).

Some gangsters are Carmine Lupertazzi seniors and some are Matt Bevilaquas. There have been several gangsters who were very intelligent in some fashion. They weren't/aren't all just dumb meatheads. You can't run multi-million dollar organizations and be a complete idiot.

I think it might be because TC never had the makings of a varsity athlete

Some people are so behind in race they actually believe they're leading.

You think guys like Carlo Gambino, Charlie Luciano, or Vincent Gigante weren't intelligent on some level? You don't have to glorify people to recognize that

Its almost like fiction can take certain liberties and/or make their main character whatever they want to be.

Next you'll be telling us CIA agents don't actually do Jason Bourne stuff and their jobs are mostly paperwork

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Vincent_Gigante

Since 1969, Gigante had been treated 20 times for psychiatric disorders, and Gigante's "primary treating psychiatrist" Eugene D'Adamo noted that "Vincent Gigante has been diagnosed since 1969 as suffering from schizophrenia, paranoid type with period acute exacerbations which result in hospitalization".[8] Gigante's lawyers and relatives said that Gigante had been mentally disabled since the late 1960s, with a below-normal IQ of 69 to 72.[1]

Now read the rest of the article. He was faking it the whole time to stay a step ahead of the government. It worked for a long time too until he was finally caught. An idiot couldn't keep something like that up for so long. You have to be trolling at this point. At least I hope you are.

Here's another one:

Using your "logic", Quentin Tarantino also idolized slave owners. Candy was a pretty smart guy.

Same with whoever wrote The Color Purple. Danny Glover's character never struck me as an imbecile.

Your take sucks, and you should feel sucky. Close this topic lmao
