Scarface: True Game Lessons on The Silver Screen

Mountains of blow and cash doesn't hurt either.
I like the scene at Babylon. Frank won't dance with her and Tony does. He takes her to the dance floor and spits direct no bullshit game to the woman of his drug king pin boss. Not Beta.
The way Tony talks in this scene is a good blue print for all those posters asking text advice.
Text like Tony Montana talks!!!

I forget how hot some of these ladies were 20-30 years ago. I always wish the heat blimp would display THE WORLD IS YOURS.
I like this scene better:

Those look like silk sheets.
I just bought satin sheets and they suck. Fucking polyester is mad agitating.
Does anyone have experience with silk sheets?

What's interesting is that if you eliminated his oneitis and white knighting, he might have flourished instead of getting killed.
Also, I think that we, as players, should slightly redefine what it means to be a white knight.
The biggest problem I have with white knighting is that it's always some guy that is doing it because, deep in the dark recesses of his mind, he thinks that white knighting will either directly or indirectly help him get pussy.
That's the real tragedy of white knighting. We know that it has nothing to do with it.
Can white knighting even exist without this impetus?

To this day, this remains the #1 most influential movie among the hip hop community. And personally as far as gangster movies go it's right up there for me right after Godfather I + II, Goodfellas & Casino. Definitely a classic that didn't truly get recognized until well after its actual release date.

Any time a gun comes up in a movie, I lose interest.
My reality has very little to do with guns as a bargaining point. Guns appeal to middle Americans who accept Jesus etc. and are flattered by action movies, romanticize the poor, etc..

Scarface is a very realistic movie. It is easily possible for a man to be both driven, aggressive and uncaring (Alpha), as well as white-knighting, short-sighted, impulsive and inflicted with Oneitis. Tony Montana is the perfect example. I had no sympathy when he complained about his wife being a junkie and unable to give him kids, for example. He knew very well about both facts before he asked her to marry him.

Maybe Tony could have lived if he took RSD
Hey G, do you own any silk or satin suits?

No doubt this is a great movie but the basic premise is Money and Power gets you bitches, not necessarily game.
I met a biker once, we got into a conversation about women. He hit me with this classic line " when the coke ran out so did she".
Not a fan of Pacino's but this is his finest performance.

Not about being a hippy.
The second a gun hit's the screen, all the balance of power in the drama is weighted too heavily on whoever has got the gun. The rest of the movie just becomes about who has the bigger gun. That can be fun, but it gets tired after so many movies.
I was talking about who you said guns appeal to.
