Welcome to Bitesized Spoilers, where I breakdown and analyze cult-classic films and TV shows.
I take a fairly inclusive view of what qualifies as a “cult-classic” - for me it includes masterpieces like The Godfather, but also cheesy action movies like Tango & Cash. Basically, anything with a passionate fanbase qualifies as a cult-classic at Bitesized Spoilers. My favourite genres, in no particular order, are crime, action and sci-fi, and my favourite decades are the 70’s, 80s and 90s, so that’s what you can expect to find covered on the channel.
All research, writing, design, and editing is done by me and me alone. My videos include plot recaps, fan theories, breakdowns, trivia and more. I try to pack a lot into my videos, but I always keep them bitesized (for me this is anything under 15 minutes).
Thank you for reading this, I hope you enjoy my channel, and don't forget to hit subscribe!
English isn’t my first language, so its always hard for me to fully understand movies after the first watch. I dont understand these things: 1. Why did the killing of the police officer and solozzo lead to a war between all 5 of the families? 2. Why did michael feel the need to kill everyone during the baptism, even though don vito made peace with everyone in the meeting? 3. What was the whole deal with barzini? It was The corleone family against tattaglia and solozzo at the start. The movie then impliee “it was barzini all along” but I dont understand WHAT barzini did all along?
thank you! saw the first one last year and wanted to see the second one without having to rewatch the first, making it a 5-hour godfather day. really saved my time (although rewatching godfather ain't never a waste of time)
The CAST, ACTING, and WRITING for THE GODFATHER is unmatched! It’s the best movie of all times with the best acting of all times! Every person in this movie was the RIGHT PERSON, in the RIGHT PART, doing the RIGHT THING!! 🔥🔥🔥
I can say that is natural as during this period many dates are corrected as new information changes dates of birth on many births. Vital Records are truly necessary. Mid Wife and home births🎉🎉🎉🎉
Don´t anyone here ever make the mistake of coming under the impression that Brando would've been incapable of memorizing his lines, If you doubt his capabilities then I refer you back to his rendering of Marc Antony in Julius Caesar (1953) or Stanley Kowalski in A Streetcar Named Desire (1951) movie as well as the stage production previously.
Here's one.... The radio broadcast that can be heard at the toll booth right before Santino is killed is from 1951, it's from October 3, 1951, more commonly dubbed as "The Shot Heard Round the World" when Bobby Thompson of the New York Giants hit a walk-off home run against the Brooklyn Dodgers to send them to the World Series. It's believed that Santino died in 1948, which jsut further proves that nothing adds up or follows the same timeline. However, all that aside, it's an amazing movie.
It is really a waste of time when people finding errors in movies. These people forget that these are entertainment movies, they are not biography, it is made for entertainment purposes, so what if there was a mistake or error? it will not make that person a smart guy, all it proves is that the guy who found the error or mistake is a person without a life.
Pardon me. I didn't realize that seeing a mistake in a movie proves that I'm dead. I always thought it proved the opposite. I will say that seeing a mistake never got in the way of my enjoying an enjoyable movie or TV show.
Thanks! I’m terms of the strikes, I think they are important for several reasons, as they serve as a powerful tool for writers to collectively voice their concerns and advocate for their rights. Here are some key reasons why I think the writers’ strike is important: Fair Compensation: Writers often rely on residuals and royalties to sustain their livelihoods, especially in industries like film, television, and streaming where their work can be reused and generate revenue for years. By striking, writers can push for fair compensation and a share of the profits generated from their creations. Improving Working Conditions: Writers often face demanding deadlines, long working hours, and intense pressure to deliver quality content. Strikes can bring attention to these issues and lead to negotiations that improve the working conditions for writers. Collective Bargaining Power: Striking as a unified group gives writers greater bargaining power compared to individual negotiations. It allows them to negotiate with employers from a position of strength, increasing the likelihood of achieving their demands. Solidarity and Unity: Writers' strikes foster a sense of solidarity and unity among writers, reinforcing the notion that they are not alone in facing challenges in the industry. This collective action can bring the writing community together and create a stronger, more supportive network. Raising Public Awareness: Strikes attract media attention and raise awareness among the general public about the issues faced by writers. This public support can put pressure on employers to come to a fair resolution. Industry-wide Impact: The entertainment industry relies heavily on the creative contributions of writers. When writers go on strike, it can have a significant impact on film and television production, disrupting schedules and leading to financial losses for employers. This impact can prompt employers to be more willing to negotiate and address writers' concerns. Setting Precedents: Successful strikes can set positive precedents for future negotiations and labor relations in the industry. They can lead to improved industry standards and better conditions for writers in the long term. While strikes can be challenging for both writers and the industry, they can also be a catalyst for positive change. They offer writers an opportunity to fight for their rights, foster a more equitable and sustainable creative environment, and contribute to a stronger, more vibrant entertainment industry.
What became of Fredo's body? The death of the Godfather's brother would not have gone unnoticed by others. The disappearance of the Godfather's brother would not have gone unnoticed by others. The Godfather was making a statement that even his own family were not immune to death because of their betrayal. So what became of Fredo after his demise?
I think a lot of fans of the first movie, me included, would have struggled to accept that Clemenza ratted - It just doesn’t fit his character. Probably for the best that they killed him off…
Are you off your rocker? Richard Castellano “more well-known and highly regarded than Brando, Caan, Duvall”? I’ll give you Pacino, but not the other three. Brando was probably the most famous film actor in the world in the ‘50s and ‘60s. Castellano was a character actor and very few moviegoers knew him by name. And still to this day. You owe those three a retraction.
Paramount were penny pinchers - bet they felt completely stupid for interfering and not having faith in the cast and director. Then Coppola makes the sequel even better. The third was ok but no way near as good though it had some memorable lines - “right or wrong this is not what I wanted” and “just when I thought I was out they pull me back in”
