Please reaction to lalisa MV
Let’s goooooooooooooooo
Finally you guys reacted to something decent.
:)
Y'all need to follow this up with Martin Scorsese's ''Casino'' (1995) and then ''The Wolf of Wall Street'' (2013), or vice versa...
Rumor has it that the REAL Henry Hill thank Ray Liotta for not making him look like a douch-bag, and Liotta just said "Did you see the movie?" Haha.
Lol
When Henry Hill was on Howard Stern, they had to hide the bottle from him after a point.
Ray said himself he’s never seen ANY of his films…and Henry Hill said that on Howard Stern…Hillwas constantly drunk as hell on that show
@@mr.smithgnrsmith7808 Shit I would be too if I saw the shit Hill saw
But what does that mean
I love this quote from Roger Ebert: "This is movie about a man who sells his soul, and the truly terrifying thing is that, in the end, his only regret is that he has no more of his soul to sell."
Ebert always had such a beautiful way with words when he would review movies. He had an ability to articulate things that I thought and felt about a movie but I didn't know how to convey them as perfectly as he did. He's always been my favorite film critic
The real henry hill is an unreliable narrator. Henry Hill is nowhere NEAR as innocent as he describes himself to be in the interviews. FAR from it.
@@Gadget-Walkmen even so, the movie him isn't a good person either
@@GabrielNeanderthal exactly.
"As far back as I remember, I always wanted to be a gangster."
One of the best opening scenes ever.
As far back as I can remember, I always wanted to be in a mafia movie
@@sang1342 We stopped being a Family, and started being a _Family_ in italics
My grandma accidentally gave me this movie for Christmas when it first came out in vhs and since I was a latchkey kid I watched it when my mother wasn’t home one day after school.
It has been my favorite movie and I know it word for word and I used to tease my grandma with that opening line, because she gave an eight year old a Martin Scorsese movie and corrupted her mind in a funny way.
It's very sad, just as the Italian Mafia and all it's families have all come to an end as are all the movies and media regarding it. Goodfellas. Godfather, Sopranos, etc. The age and era of the Italian and Irish Mob are dead and gone, and all of the actors of the aforementioned films are in their later years and probably filmed their last Italian mob related movie. I still wish we had more of it, it should have been like Western's with tons of Movies and TV Shows about various Italian Mob crime families and such. Oh well. :(
@Aka it perfectly encapsulates the main characters plight (wannabe gangster) and low-key sets up his downfall in basically the first real line in the whole movie. If anything the mundanity of it only makes it better
RIP Tony Sirico. Was just a minor character in this but went on to play one of the best television characters ever in The Sopranos
And of course he'd be named Paulie LOL
Paulie Walnuts is the best character in Sopranos
@@samhilton4173 OH!
word to the wise, remember pearl harbour 🤘
Heh heh heh, eh ton
fun fact: Tommy's mother is actually played by Scorsese's mother. Her and his dad had cameos in loads of his movies.
The paintings were really hers, also.
And the scene was improvised by her. Legend!
Joe Pesci filmed Home Alone the same time as Goodfellas and he had a hard time not cussing on the set. To cut down the swearing while on the Home Alone set, he started shouting incoherent ramblings when he got hit over the head and injured. Pesci is an absolute legend.
From what I read Chris Columbus suggested that Pesci use 'fridge' in place of the f-word.
Considering Goodfellas was filmed in 1989 and Home Alone was filmed between February and May 1990, I find that quite difficult to believe.
Whomever you got this from is wrong. Goodfellas wrapped principal photography the year before Home Alone.
Maybe you mean Joe Pesci was having trouble shaking off his character from Goodfellas a bit?
That has happened a few times. Al Pacino was in a play after he'd finished Scarface and he couldn't shake his Cuban accent and Tony Montana mannerisms until a few performances into the plays run
Love how the waiter Joe Pesci shoots in the foot is the actor of Christopher in the Sopranos, who then goes on to shoot a character in the foot in that show and say "it happens" 😂
One of the greatest films ever made. Scorsese knocked it out of the park and delivered a truly fascinating look into the glory days and fall from grace that happened to the New York Italian mafia.

@@yakivpopavich what y’all think about Knockaround guys it’s another underrated mob movie that doesn’t get talked about it’s one of the 2000s mob movies
@@yakivpopavich well actually there are still quite a lot of Italian and irish mobs its just a lot more subtle and harder for them to operate
The disrespect that was Dances with wolves…
There’s no such thing as the mafia.
Now that they understand the references, I hope one day Eric and Aaron re-watch the Community episode "Contemporary American Poultry".
“As far back as I can remember, I always wanted to be in a mafia movie.” Abhed
I was gonna say this too

@@yakivpopavich The Irishman was released pretty recently. And the mob isn’t completely gone. They are aren’t as substantial as they once was.
Or literally every Goodfeathers short on classic Animaniacs
RIP Paul Sorvino and Ray Liotta. Two great actors that really shine in this film, especially Liotta.
Echoing everyone's comments that Sopranos needs to be reacted to someday, as well as other Scorsese movies. And Eric needs to watch Heat, maybe some of the crew haven't seen it yet either.
I’m amazed how no major reaction channel has watched The Sopranos. It has an extremely active online community (Borko) and paved the way for every anti-hero protagonist show that has come since. Its like a free 50,000 subscribers for whoever jumps on it

If they hadn't seen Goodfellas, they certainly haven't seen Heat
Yes, please keep having this type of segment: "POPULAR MOVIES THAT THE CREW NEVER SEEN (especially Aaron)"!
One of my favorite films of all time.
R.I.P. Frank Vincent. 💐👏🏼
R.I.P. Ray Liotta. 💐👏🏼
R.I.P. Paul Sorvino. 💐👏🏼
If u guys haven’t seen Donnie Brasco, I recommend seeing that film also. 💯
It's crazy that just after watching this movie along with you I learn that the actor for Pauli just died, 2 months after Henry's actor who also died! May the both of them rest in peace. They made one hell of a movie.
RIP both Ray Liotta and Paul Sorvino.
Joe Pesci ad libbed the 'I'm funny, I amuse you' scene. Ray Liotta's reaction is genuine as he didn't know what was happening.
The guy playing the FBI agent who puts them into witness protection is actually the real FBI agent who agent who handled Henry.
Wasn't FBI Was the United States attorney for the New York district.
@@jcarlovitch Thanks for clarifying. Not sure why I thought it was the FBI.
@@jxchamb I thought the same thing
now they've watched Goodfellas, we NEED to get The Sopranos on a poll.
Yes!
Wait… they haven’t seen the sapranos?
@@TheManWithTheMasterPlan Idk. But if they haven't.. they're seriously missing out

26:29 The silent "Is that Samuel L. Jackson?" :D. In full length they had an instant reaction when he walked into the scene, but then it was never brought up in the discussion =)
I think Heat (1995) with De Niro and Pacino would be a great movie to react too. I hope you will do it someday!
It's just unbelievable how much better Martin Scorsese is than the rest. His hit to miss ratio is astounding, and the hits are just some of the best movies of all time that I can't believe from one director.
I lost it when Eric looked disgusted at the idea of tiny plates at a fancy restaurant 🤣
The scene where Paulie smacks Henry in his back yard was improvised by Scorsese. Notice Liotta’s reaction, he wasn’t expecting that shit.
"One day some of the neighborhood kids carried my mother's groceries all the way home. You wanna know why? It was outta respect." One of the greatest lines EVER!
Fun fact the scene where Joe and Ray were in the restaurant laughing about how joe was funny was actually adlib it wasn't part of the script but the director liked it so much it was added to the movie and I'm so glad
Yes eric now you can appreciate the community ep a little more
To this day I still prefer Casino, but Goodfelllas has tons of classic lines and scenes it’s hard not to love it as well. 2 masterpieces from Scorsese.
I prefer Casino too but yeah they are both amazing movies.
I use to prefer Casino when I was younger but I grew a better understanding and took more from every watch of Goodfellas than I did Casino. I always found something new I didn’t notice before or I would try to read between the lines and try to figure out what something meant because they don’t always say or tell you everything in Goodfellas. With Casino it’s pretty much what you see is what you get and also I’m not too sure what the morale of the story of Casino is, like I’m sure there’s themes of like greed and lust that overlap between the three main stories but nothing truly deep to me like Goodfellas or The Departed like it just feels like just kinda ends with no real perspective to give.
same here. Casino all the way.
💯
Goodfellas is better than Casino, in my opinion.
Joe Pesci won the best supporting actor oscar for this movie. For his speech he said, "It's my privilege, thank you". It's the shortest ever.
Actually, while it’s one of the shortest, Patty Dukes speech for The Miracle Worker was even shorter. She simply said “Thank you” and exited the stage.
I really wished these guys had watched this masterpiece before they saw the Community episode “Contemporary American Poultry” aka the Mafia Movie episode.😂😂
Also I still can’t believe why this movie lost Best Picture at the Oscars to Dances With Wolves. Don’t get me wrong, I love that movie, but it does NOT have the legendary film status that this movie does.
RIP Ray Liota and Paul Sorvino
Would love to see them react to Taxi Driver and Raging Bull someday as well
Ye i love this series and Aaron hasn't seen a lot of stuff, so I'm guessing they'll react to more classic films
Not a movie but I want them to react to the Sopranos
Same here!
So badly!!!!
Easily one of my all-time favorite movies! It's hard to describe but it has a sort of rhythm - it just easily flows from scene to scene almost like a piece of music or something. I also notice how fluid the camera is - almost every shot has movement either within the frame or the camera itself moves. (One other movie that I feel the same way about is the Coen brothers' 'Fargo'. It has that same sense of rhythm and flow.)
Eric: "I thought that was going to be worse honestly "
Calvin: " It was pretty bad". OMG I can't with you guys 😂. Love the channel btw.
Rest in Peace Ray Liotta
It was always wild to me that Henry Hill used to be a frequent caller and guest on Howard Stern. Also, one of the gangsters he mentions in a voiceover early on, Michael Franzese, has a big RUclips channel now where he talks about how real mob movies are, etc. It's interesting to hear his side/inside stuff on this movie, The Irishman, etc, since he was literally there for that stuff.
The "Funny guy" scene was completely improvised including Henry's reaction. The director loved it so much he had no choice but to keep the scene.
Growing up in Brooklyn in an Italian neighborhood, I can tell you that, that line is not original. People said shit like this to each other all the time. The idea was to come off real serious, then laugh when the other guy took it serious. Also heard "badda boom baddda bing" a lot, as well as "fugedaboudit". Lol.
@@realitycheck5376 I grew up in Jersey soooo I'm no stranger to that. With that said I never said it was original I'm saying it wasn't in the script. It also wasn't so much the line as it was the delivery and reactions that Joe and Ray gave that made Martin love it so much.
@@supersizesenpai Sorry, I didn't know I was speaking to the choir. Lol. Joe Pesci was genius for that and Ray's reaction was perfect too. Scorsese had to love it.
"director" lol
Every time I watch this movie I'm taken aback by how well it captures the shifting mood, just so much truly perfect filmmaking. Incredible script and performances too, and some of my favorite (and the most iconic) editing of all time. Man, what a film.
Im so glad you guys watched this! Love that you guys are watching some classic mainstream movies especially with the perspectives of people who have never seen them before.
The movie "My Blue Heaven", starring Steve Martin, is an incidental sequel to "Good Fellas". Martin and Ray Liotta both play Henry Hill, the former played his experience in the witness protection program.
One of the all time classics and one of my favourite movies.
SOPRANOS REACTION BY THE END OF THE YEAR PLEASE. The bartender kid who got shot in the foot and later gets murdered was Uriel from Lucifer. He also plays a really important character in the THE SOPRANOS. PLEASE GET TO THAT SHOW THEN WATCH THE WIRE AND Oz, HBOs best shows imo
Yes, this was really based on a true story. Henry was such a character. He was a frequent guest on the Howard Stern Show through the 90's and 2000's.
Ray Liottas laugh is legendary. RIP. Love this movie. A masterpiece and in my top 10 movies of all time. So glad you're finally watching it.
Reminds me of the times my father grew up in Philly at literally the exact same time as far as the years and their ages. Crazy. So many stories. He was a great guy though and I don't mean all the brutal stuff if that makes sense. It's just crazy how different things were back then. The shot with Deniro smoking at the bar was always his favorite scene. Wish you didn't cut it out.
I lost my father early this year to covid, unexpectedly obviously. Double pneumonia. He battled for 5 weeks. Love you dad. Miss you everyday. I hear time heals all wounds, but so far that hasn't been the case. And today is one of those bad days. Thanks for the reaction,. Hopefully it starts getting easier. This helped
That was a fun watch with y'all, thanks for that!
To this day, it has the number one image+sound brain-burn in cinema for me; hearing Layla, I instantly see garbage bags tumbling over each other in slow motion. What a sequence.
I remember reading somewhere that Henry Hill went to see the movie and actually wrote a review of it for either GQ or Details mag.
Fun fact: talk about influences... when Danny Boyle was making Trainspotting, he wanted to homage Scorsese's use of song/soundtrack to denote the time/era.
"Gangs of New York" is by far my favorite Scorsese film it's like a Grimm's fairy tale about the early gangsters of New York in 1863.
I’m not judging you but I’ve never heard of this opinion before haha
@@hathbeenslain Yeah I could've worded it a little better lol.
My Blue Heaven, staring Steve Martin.was also based on Henry Hill after witness protection. It was actually released a month before Goodfellas.
Joe Pesci should have been paid for two jobs with this picture. One for playing the wise guy Tommy, and the other as a wise guy authenticity consultant. He grew up surrounded by real connected guys in NJ and mirrored a lot of his improvised dialogue after things he heard as a teenager.
My favourite Movie from my favourite Director. Glad you guys enjoyed it!!
I would love for them do do a re-reaction the the Community Chicken Finger episode after this
Big props to the person that edited this reaction. Great job.
that scene of the music playing over the pink caddy and dead people, has stayed with me for 30 years. every time I hear Layla by Clapton, it instantly brings me back. Surreal
This was fantastic. Thank you! Oh man, Eric you MUST see Heat (1995).
Yes! Thank you! Can't wait to see it! I don't know if you brought it up in the full length reaction, but stacks is played by Samuel L Jackson
I’ve seen Goodfellas so many times but I never realized The guy who played spider was also Uriel from Lucifer
Growing up in NYC, every neighborhood had a cabstand that had no cabs, and/or a barbershop where they didn't cut hair. And also there was an Italian American Social Club that would throw the greatest 4th of July block parties. I miss those days.
Easily one of my favourites of all time. Lost count of the amount times I've seen it...and never gets old. Just perfect.
Based on this reaction, they’ve never seen The Sopranos
THIS IS MY FAVORITE MOVIE! So happy to see this reaction!
When I watched this I wondered if you guys had seen Heat, which is a Michael Mann movie, and then when I heard Eric say he had not seen it, I had to comment...you should make that one you watch and react to boys, ASAP, it is INSANELY great...thanks for the great content as always.
One of the main reasons that the real life Tommy was killed is that he approached Karen Hill for sex. When she refused, he tried to rape her. Karen was having an affair with Paulie at the time, and when she told him what happened he was enraged. He went to the Gambino family and told them that Tommy had killed Batts, as not turning him over for killing a made Gambino family man could risk a mob war. Tommy’s violent temper was also bringing unwanted attention. It was believed that John Gotti, who was a close friend of Billy Batts, personally murdered Tommy, and contrary to the film, his death was slow and torturous. His body was never found.
RIP, Ray Liotta and Paul Sorvino.
Of all the films these guys havent watched, I'm glad this was one of them. The reaction was gold
20:50... I forgot the channel's name but there's this guy who made a video about Goodfellas and he talks about most of the characters who were killed in this movie are based on real people and he visits/shows the location where they were either killed, buried or discovered at. Like the real Spider was actually buried in the basement of that building he was killed in.
Goodfellas is a top 5 movie of all time for me. It's just such an up and down emotional ride. It's grounded and gritty. I'm gonna miss him.
52:07 Heat is Michael Mann and is one of the all time greats, I pray it makes it onto a poll or you guys choose to watch it real soon.
The FBI agent who talked with Henry Hill and his wife about the witness protection program is the actual agent who dealt with the real Henry Hill.
I can't hear Layla anymore without thinking about dead bodies being found all around Queens.
Oh and the music in this movie.. just great
Joe Pesci 5'4" 128 lbs played a guy Tommy DeVito in the film, in real life Thomas DeSimone was 6'4" 230 lbs and still made him menacing yet DeSimone was far more violent and psychotic than he is portrayed in this movie.
Despite Tommy DeVito being known for being exceptionally dangerous, I've read that he was really broken up about having to kill Stacks. It had to be done but they were really close friends.
Micael Franzese, who was mentioned in the bar scene is a real ex mafia Captain….huge RUclips channel now….awesome man
I always think its fascinating when reaction channels react to the same movie, shows all reactors share a big community
Damn honestly can't believe you haven't seen Goodfellas, but this is a welcome surprise to my morning!
Shoutout to Eric for noticing something I’ve never noticed before. He’s always smoking a cigar, except in the scene where he picks Tommy up to get made. Nice foreshadowing from Scorcese
That one shot... good lord it amazes me every time I see it.
what a timeless movie, one of the classics. great reaction!
R.I.P. Ray Liotta, Tony Sirico, and, Paul Sorvino.
You guys NEED to react to more Scorsese stuff! I need more Blind Wave mob movie videos!
I know it’s not really the most hilarious or important of scenes, but I just love when he’s rattling off all the gangsters he’s working with and the nicknames. It just makes me chuckle and I don’t know why. Lol
Wait! You guys watched GoodFellas AFTER you watched the Chicken fingers episode of Community?? Wow .. that's .. different.
Lot of comments so likely already mentioned, 27 actors in Goodfellas also appeared on the TV series The Sopranos.
My favourite film of the '90s. Good reaction, guys.
12:45 I have that same look of disgust. Tiny plates ugh 😂😂😂
The dialogue is so real
Fun fact. Right before Morrie is killed he mentions a point shaving in Boston. That was a reference to a real point shaving scandal with the Boston College basketball team that the real life Deniro and Liotta characters were a part of. Watched a documentary about the scandal on ESPN and they even had the real Henry Hil talk about it. Great watch.
Henry Hill was a featured call in guest on The Howard Stern Show. He was a crazy dude. So fucked up. A great interview. Fantastic reaction guys. Love ya.
Certain movies you can watch over and over and not get tired of this is one of mine
Regular people: "What have I seen? What haven't I seen?"
Eric: "What have I seen? What have I haven't?"
Goodfellas and Gangs of New York are my favorite Scorsese films. Wolf of Wallstreet was really good and a great insight into the high rolling bro grift that destroyed the retirement accounts of so many of us and caused so many Americans to lose their homes. The Departed, The Aviator, really good; I'd definitely watch them again. Hell, I'd watch any Scorsese movie again; he's so good.
I was 29 when this came out.
The woman who played Tommy's mom is Scorsese's mom in real life.
Amazingly, Henry Hill eventually got out of witness protection and opened a chain of Italian restaurants in Connecticut called Wiseguys. Then the original location in New Haven - decorated JUST like the one in the movie - was severely damaged in a fire eerily similar to the one he and Tommy set. Life imitating art imitating life, eh?
I swear to god, the first big reaction channel to watch the Sopranos is gonna make a killing
*An absolute certified classic.*
Blind wave crew now has to watch Casino. 10/10
Would love to see blind wave react to the tv show The Sopranos!
Now you gotta watch My Blue Heaven. The movie came out a month before Goodfellas, but takes place after the events of Goodfellas. It's a comedy movie starring Steve Martin as a character based on Henry Hill while in witness protection.
Marty Scorsese's mother played Tommy's mom in the movie. She also was in Casino, Godfather 3, and I think Who's got mail.
“ Donnie brasco “ next please!
The Dinner in Prison scene is one of the greatest individual scenes in any movie ever.
Henry Hill , while in the witness program would pop up in NYC & drop in on the Howard Stern radio show . Gangster would call in to threaten him & he would laugh it off & say “ you know where I am right now , so do something !” . But once day when he popped in , Spiders sister called in & begged him to tell her where spiders body was , so they could bury him . Hill pleaded ignorance
All the movies you see today where they put in snippets of songs to illustrate a scene come from the concept of scorceses' "Needle Drops" in this movie. is something som ubiquitous now we take it for granted.
Nicolas Pileggi who co wrote the screenplay and wrote the book was married to Nora Ephron who wrote My Blue Heaven which is pretty much a semi sequel to Goodfellas as it tells the story of a mob guy as he adapts to suburban life.
