Pablo is undoubtedly richer than pretty much all his enemies, but he dresses like he came straight from a supermarket lol. It’s the director’s way of saying he doesn’t give a fuck
Both Pablo Escobar and later El Chapo never wore suits outside of a wedding or a party of some short. The only time Escobar wore a fancy suit was when he became a politician. Both men were casual-dressers, either cus they didn't give a fuck or they just wanted to be seen as ordinary men.. Who knows
Pablo is the wealthiest drug lord in human history and always will be..so he absolutely was richer than any of his enemies. Also, this is how Pablo really dressed
@@mrrobot8973 This is not exactly true. A more infamous man was born from this deal. A man that some say got away with it. His name was Amado Carrillo and estimates are generally slightly below Pablo Escobar but some say it was actually substantially more. Once Escobar died and Felix lost control of his empire Carrillo pretty much took on the entirety of the American drug trade. He was good friends with people from the Cali cartel. He would transport all of his drugs through planes and they called him the lord of the skies because he pretty much created the most elaborate and efficient logistical system to move drugs. He died during a surgery that was supposed to change his appearance, apparently. A lot of people don’t buy he just died from a simple cosmetic surgery but if he didn’t he got away with all the riches that neither Escobar or Felix could ever truly keep.
@@Jorora well not more infamous than Pablo of course…but I think I’ve heard/read a bit about him. I appreciate the info, im going to dig in to his story. But yeah when it came to how much money either had..Pablo didn’t even fully know. Must be nice. L
@@marine102192 I mean, Pablo wouldn't really have a lucrative business without "the mexican" because Mexico was the easiest and cheapest trade route that the Colombians could use to get the cocaine to the U.S.
Fun Fact: Pablo didn’t have problems with Mexicans He loved a show called Chavó del ocho so much He asked the actor to visit him a few times and rumors say he even gave them thousands just for showing up and performing in Colombia
Yeah usually Mexicans and Colombians of a lot of love for each other. Me and my Colombian buddy's use to joke if I wasn't Mexican I'd be Colombian and they'd say if I wasn't Colombian I'd be Mexican but from Sinaloa of course. Lol
The fact that this man playing Pablo can't speak fluent Spanish yet was offered to play that role speaks volumes of his acting talent. greetings from India.
His acting abilities here were awful, first of all it was wrong for the directors to hire a Brazilian to Play Pablo Escobar since the Colombian accent especially where Pablo was from is very soft and sensual and this Brazilian actor had a huge accent for the Spanish speaking audience it was not convincing at all! it was like hiring an Italian that doesn’t speak and Arabic to play bin Laden you get what I’m saying? Second of all the series “El Patron del Mal” has a much better portrayal of P.E. Andres Parra nailed the way he walked, the way he stood, his posture his Swag, even how he breathed P.E has a particular way of breathing. Wagner Moura didn’t even try. Pablo escobar was a carismátic funny evil gangster he had an interesting personality Wagner Moura did not capture this at all, he made him seem dull and boring but the thing is people like Pablo Escobar so much that it doesn’t matter who plays him or if he even is played well that people will still watch. as a Latina who grew up watching Pablo Escobar on the news and seeing him on video it was really hard to watch Narcos. So hard. even tho he was a monster lol. As a Spanish speaker this was horrible.
Wagner Moura's performance as Pablo Escobar was incredibly compelling, forceful and magnetic. One of the very best I've seen from any actor - ever. Bravo to that talented man.
@@Nazio868 hahahahahaha what's that joke !! A Brasilian NEVER will act better than a Colombian. NEVER ! check the performance of Andres Parra, he is the best Escobar of TV .
@@mike2003ars Andres parra nailed Pablo as well, both actors did an incredible job. But Wagner Moura s Pablo is the best. He just has that ominous, menacing presence and tone. That’s how Pablo was.

Not to mention Pablo also understood what Felix Gallardo mentioned about how he has to control world around him or it will control him and he has to protect himself and the people he loves from the world around him. Otherwise, it will mess and break him.
Wagner Moura really struggled to sound "colombian" at the beginning of Narcos because he barely spoke spanish to begin with; but at this point he already mastered the whole thing. Maybe this was his BEST scene as Escobar, because his spanish is 98% clean during the whole shot. Phenomenal acting of both; Diego Luna also killed it as Felix Gallardo
@@stevemill8959 my aunt's been with a Colombian for many years and he is a great guy. He loves coming to our parties and listening to the live Mariachi and drinking tequila.
The cameo of Wagner Moura surprised me when I first saw it. The whole cast, cinematography, script was so great. Watched it all four times. Couldn’t get enough, especially the ending. I didn’t know it really happened like that in real life.
The way Wagner intimidates Felix has me feeling some type of way like I’d fold so hard if he was staring at me like that. Btw this scene is anything but peaceful it’s almost like you can feel the tension in the air like one wrong move and it’s a WRAP.
2:05 this probably wasn't intentional but a subtle way of intimidating someone in an uncomfortable situation (such as this one) is to position yourself in front of the exit of the room (in this case the gazebo). It places something in Felix's subconscious mind that the only way to get out of that situation is to face Pablo. If you've ever watched police interrogation videos, you'll notice they use this technique often.
It was definitely intentional. You have to remember the director of photography had to plan out each shot, actor and camera position, etc. They know a lot about the psychology of perspective and positioning. Just remember everytime you see that done on tv or in the movies where the cop is blocking the exit, the camera be and actors have to be out in exactly the correct positions to show that.
This show tryna push a narrative to divide Latinos. Really if all the Latin American cartels and gangs united, they’d be La Cosa Nostra 2.0, even bigger.
Escobar's empire is crumbled except for one aspect, the hippos. There are now over 100 in South America and it's becoming an ecological crisis. This is his final mark on the world.
I like how throughout the show Felix refers back to his first wife’s death through words and the photo of her in the Bible in his office. We see it twice.
I liked Jefe de Jefes, but it was all great. Great cast and photography. BTW, Fernanda Urrejola will appear in Clint Eastwoods Cry Macho film. She has a lead role. She is so hot.
Dunno why but after predicting the legalization of Marijuana it gave me goosebumps when he said that cocaine is another story and "It scares the americans.." I imagined the Irony of that statement
The Actor who played Pablo ,made the entire Narco Franchise,without him Narcos would just be another fish lost in this vast ocean of internet web series. Other actors played nice too both in Narcos and Narcos Mexico but He was the standout.
@@stevemill8959 exactly. They cast a Brazilian and u can hear his Portuguese accent through out. He sounds nothing like Pablo, a Paisa, or even a Colombian.
Actually, it was the CIA that was running the drug importation. Remember, they kidnapped Felix and Amado and forced them to use his planes and pilots to fly the drugs into the USA in exchange for gun-running to the Contra rebels with the help of the DFS.
@@rancosteel yes but it was Pablo who had the largest supply of cocaine at his peak and at a point virtually untouchable, to this day his net worth as a drug cartel has never been surpassed, well over $30 Billion USD of todays money
Funny thing is Rodriguez pablos partner was called the “Mexican” because of his admiration of Mexico. And Isn’t there pictures of Pablo dressed as Pancho Villa 😂😂😂
Netflix added this out of script. Pablo had a best friend Nick named El mexicano and Pablo himself had a picture of himself dressed as a Mexican in sombrero and a bullet belt like Pancho villa. This scene here was created by the director.
@@lizethpena5746 I mostly notice Colombias admiring our cultura. What Mexicans have embraced from Colombia is cumbia music. That's the only connection I see and relevant.
It is just amazing to see people be great; these two were a gift to witness on screen, particularly the guy who portrayed Pablo. Their talent is remarkable.
It’s crazy how many drug dealers reminded Miguel that he had a good thing selling marijuana. They all wonder why he wants to take such a big risk. He should have just taken their advice. All coke drug lords end up dead or in jail. I’ll never understand pure greed.
According to Sandra Ávila, "La Reina del Pacífico", they do it mostly because of the addiction to danger and power. She says that life is very addictive, full of adrenaline.
Félix was a fucking badass, he started down the most powerful drug lord at the time, he is vigilant, of course, but not scared. He is smart and knows what to say, regardless of what he really thinks or wants to do.
You only break bread with your rivals and enemies. That could have gone down hill many times but they both managed to conclude the conversation with some understanding and reasoning
They said your father would say anytime ... In that way with so and so. He was protecting me. I was in Artemis status and he knew it. I was very prepared to assassinate to protect.
in the show they show Cali cartel, in particular, Helmer herrera tried to act tough and harsh on Felix, But Pablo was the one to offer Felix a more subtle and calm approach as he understood that without the Mexican border, Pablo is fucked... the gentlemen of Cali were known for their professionalism however Escobar was a different animal he knew how to use a pawn in a way where he wins regardless.
@@pookiebenny7819 I can confirm, but most people here don’t think much about Mexicans. We mainly don’t like being associated with their culture because it’s very extravagant and we’re very reserved in comparison. But there are no feelings of hate towards them, although sometimes there are depending on how they act towards us.
If Pablo was the one meeting Felix it will be the same. They would've rolled out the red carpet for Pablo. Pablo was born to be a villain. This guy switched career path 😂 because he wanted to be rich.
3:50 the realization Pablo went through knowing that Mexico will take over in the future undeniably with his death and skull being feasted on by the Mexicans
What’s this season or series called? I have watched 3 seasons of Narcos where Pablo gets killed in season 2 and I have never seen this scene before. What’s the name of it?
@@miguelizo1 thank you my mate is raving bout this I don't really watch TV but something bout gangsters and cocaine gets my attention every time lethal mix but great viewing .. 👍
Everyone talks about Pablo but they don't know that Félix came out more chingon He had all the drug traffickers in his country and he did not make enemies with them
To begin with Pablo could never do this because if he did he would have all his operations shut down by the cartels and dea. Frankly this scene was the other way around. He threatened Pablo not Pablo. Why else he left clean. Colombias are cool but these guys were worse.
The Colombian were much more power than the Mexican cartel at this time that started to change when the Mexican cartel started receiving cocaine as well as their transportation fee
@@traiascacodreanu4553 He means that the politicians and DEA in Mexico were working for the Mexican Cartels and if Pablo threatened them he'd either be dead or in prison sooner. I don't believe it but that's what he meant. Pablo Escobar ran Colombia the same way El Chapo ran Mexico. Escobar was just richer than any Mexican drug lord because there was not much competition in Colombia apart from the Cali Cartel and some smaller ones. He was a bigger deal than the Mexicans.
Does Wagner Moura Spanish improved in this scene? I don't speak Spanish, but I heard his accent was very noticeable in the first episodes of Narcos, is he accent better in this scene?
