Colonel Sepple: "AhaHA! Ah've got fahve aces! What have you got, suh?" Bugs Bunny: "I have got six aces, sir." I didn't understand why my dad laughed so hard at that when I first saw it, either.
@@tyjans370 No, my mistake. I was saying that it was like four Yakuza members they went against instead of five because the little one didn’t do anything at first. Yes, still impressive, regardless. Cheers. ✌️✌️
Okay wtf i was rewatching this while i was reading the comments and as soon as i started to read this comment the part that it is talking about comes up on the video
Joe Mantegna clearly has the time of his life voicing Fat Tony! In fact, Mantegna is on record as telling the writers that whenever Fat Tony appears, he'll provide the dialogue, even if it's just a few lines (he showed he meant it when he was in an episode that required him to make nothing but gagging sounds). It's always fun to see actors genuinely loving what they do. :D
How wide is that binder? He sliced up both front wheels while lying cross because they didn't slice at the same time. It has to be around 3m wide so Milhouse uses A1 binders confirmed
That binder trick was one of the smartest things I’ve seen any of the Simpsons characters do. It might not actually work in real life, but it was pretty slick.
Fact that Joe Magneta (forgive me if I misspelled) loved the role so much that he insisted that even if it's just for a sneeze, that he wants to voice Fat Tony.... that says something.
I love how he’s a scary mob boss yet is so involved with the simpsons, to the point they’re on friendly terms. I wouldn’t be surprised if he ended up being Bart godfather
Fat Tony: *Walks into Homer* "Uh. Homer, does Bart have a Godfather?" Homer:" What's a Godfather... Oh Like Marlon Brando" Fat Tony:" Uhm... Sort of I Would like to be the Boy's Godfather" Homer: "I Don't think he needs one of those Tony *One of Tony's Goons Showcases a Bat whilst another Brandishes Pistola* Fat Tony:" You Seem Homer I'm not asking I'm telling, Either you let me be his Godfather or shall we say an "Accident" will randomly Occur Capeesh(?!).
"I would like to remind you that accidents *WILL* happen." Literally the last thing you want to hear from anyone associated with the Mob, let alone the Mob Boss.
@@raul76603 my Dad, who worked extensively with the Japanese in Tokyo when he was in machine tool sales, said the exact opposite. He said they’re horrible to each other and everyone else all the time. Perhaps it’s just Japanese businessmen, but J still find it interesting because many people don’g understand that aspect of the culture: the malicious and toxic part.
Man the truck -> trucktruck -> trucktrucktruck is one of simpsons best gags. Also the godfather references like FatTony's olive oil construction company.
"Now Homer, as you no doubt recall you were done a favour by our, uh, how shall I say... Mafia crime syndicate" Good to see you put some thought into tactful wording there Tony
Fat Tony is a character that got better in later seasons, at least to me (besides all the Fit Tony stuff; that was dumb). He started out as a generic drug dealer, but his schemes became a lot more creative over time (producing and dealing out rat milk, promoting a pretzel stand, making a ramp out of breadsticks, etc.)
Fat Tony is a irl Replica of a Mob Boss with charisma. You cannot run a gang without being reasonable and Fat Tony is very reasonable, except for the hot dogs. that was racist, but mad respect for the man 😂
The episode where he died would've been fantastic if they didn't bring him back as a skinny cousin. Like if anything, Louie should've taken the role as the boss.
The show itself scrapped the Fit Tony idea. When Tony is wearing a green shirt, he's the original. When the shirt is red, he's fit Tony. In the later seasons like 30, 31, he wears the green again. And he "died" back in the 25, I think
It was this fight that made me say, "Okay, it's official. Springfield has the most badass cartoon mafia." Fat Tony and crew are outnumbered by the *yakuza* and give as good as they get!
Legs being both genuinely talented at dancing AND being super opinionated on why he does not like Mark Hamill are very underrated moments from the same scene.
Also how about this for versatility? He also played An FBI Agent named David Rossi on Criminal Minds, He joined in the midst of the Third season and stayed in for the next twelve, Almost 13 years he put into the show.
Homer: You mean the mob only did me a favor to get something from me in return? Oh, Fat Tony! I will say good day to you sir. Fat Tony: Ok, I will go. Guilt tripping a mob boss. And they say Homer isn’t smart.
“I’m afraid I must insist. Y’see, my wife, she has been most vocal on the subject of the pretzel monies. ‘Where’s da money?’ ‘When are you going to get da money?’ ‘Why aren’t you getting da money now?’ ...and so on. So, please.....da money...” Hahaha, poor guy.
7:18 “You mean the Mob only did me a favour to get something in return? Oh, Fat Tony…I will say good day to you, Sir.” “Okay. I will go…” “Eyyy, wait a minute…”
FT - "WHOs to say? does a peacock need all those feathers?" PS - "look youre getting a little philosophical for me" FT - "i suppose so they say it happens in the autumn years" PS - "well be that as it may" FT - "get your hand off my car"
I don't know why I really like the "hard nosed criminals listen to sheltered mom who steers them straight" trope, but I do. Marge educating the mob on Italian American stereotypes is my jam
I was looking for your comment. Just another blasphemy against Christians. They always make us look bad in the media. No Real disciple of Jesus Christ would ever do such a horrible thing. They always make us look like dorks and nerds, major hypocrites, and mentally ill. They obviously hate us with all their might. You will never find a positive role assigned to a Christian on any television show or movie, or even a book, other then The Bible of course.
@@servantofthelivinggod6192 It's the Simpsons, almost no one is portrayed as a perfect person. That's like getting upset that South Park made fun of a certain group of people even though they make fun of all groups in that show. Also, I understand hypocrites and mentally ill, but dorks and nerds? What's wrong with dorks and nerds? I don't think you should judge people based on their interests and hobbies as long as they're not hurting anyone.
@@majickman And its not even true that the media portray all Christians as bad. Quite the opposite. Perhaps it seems that way because there is now more media critical of Christianity and organised religion than there used to be, but there is still vast swathes of media that is not just "not mean" about Christians but that actively preach Christian values. Watch any Christmas movie on the movie channels and you'll struggle to find anything less than good Christian bois. American media in particular often promotes religion to a dogmatic extent, which most other western nations don't. So it sort of tickles me whenever Americans, of all people, accuse their media of containing an overall anti-religious bias (of course individual networks might, but that's the nature of having different networks).
4:02 I remember how Wiggum in the oldest episodes was smart, serious, & competent at his job. Now he went down the same road that Patrick Star walks on in circles...
"You mean the mob only did me a favour to get something in return! Oh Fat Tony. I will say good day to you sir!" "Okay, I will go" I'm not sure if it's Homer's naivety or he's actually being clever.
7:34 eeeeeyyyy *Wait a Minute* 😆 🤣 and Homer waiting for the little Yakuza member to do something while he looks so serious. 💛Simpsons early visuals and comedic timing will always be one of the bests
Can I just say how underrated Louis is? Like, he adds so much to his appearance & gets such good lines that I honestly kind of wish he would get his own focus episode
And what about these? Johnny: The Boss, he’s got a thing for the Ya-Yas. (Near Louie and Johnny, Fat Tony is crying to the in-flight movie) Fat Tony: (Crying) Why was I born a man? (He blows his nose on his pizza slice instead of his white handkerchief from his jacket pocket) Fat Tony entertaining his men with Don Corleone’s orange peel in the mouth technique. (As well as Louie talking about his mom in this same scene) And the whole “Italian-American Mexican Standoff?” (From Maggie arriving at Luigi’s upon following Fat Tony’s gang to Moe saving Maggie by moving Fat Tony’s gang, the Castellaneta Family, and President of the Italian-American Anti-Defamation League to tears by Maggie’s innocence and how it changed Moe’s life)
