>5′ 4″
>squeaky voice
And yet he still came off as intimidating in movies. How did he do it?
>>70416040
go get your shinebox
He plays crazy and unpredictable well. He probably had a crazy abusive father growing up that he emulated in his acting career.
>>70416052
MUTHA FUCKIN MUTT
YOU FUCKIN PIECE OF SHIT
>>70416040
by being a funny guy
That shit doesn't matter. What matters is how big your balls are.
>>70417023
What do you mean funny?
Hold on to your butts:
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8d3IM8lIASI
>>70416040
confidence
>>70416040
by being a twisted fucking psychopath. intimidation has nothing to do with how big you are. it's all mental
>>70416040
By coming off as insane.
>>70416040
Being a good actor mostly.
>>70416040
most of his intimidating characters had 2 things going for them. one a position of power and two having the shortest fuse on the planet.
like in goodfellas people already feared him since he was a wiseguy but the wiseguys feared him too because hed whip a gun out and threaten someone at the drop of a hat and was one of paulies favorites
>>70417023
Funny how? Does he amuse you?
>>70417099
If he told a joke, would you laugh?
hitler was a manlet too but do you think people weren't afraid of him?
Loved watching him getting buried alive after pleading for the goons to stop brutalizing his brother with baseball bats in casino. Fat fuck buried alive in a shallow grave with his brother in his tighty whities
>>70416040
>While I was trying to figure out why the guy was saying what he was saying, Tommy just hit him.
>No matter how big a guy might be, Tommy would take him on. You beat Tommy with fists, he comes back with a bat. You beat him with a knife, he comes back with a gun. And if you beat him with a gun, you better kill him, because he'll keep comin' back and back until one of you is dead.
>>70418434
It would be extremely funny
Have you ever experienced extensive water damage in your home? Mildew's no joke, shit's scary.
>>70418465
>>70418650
Nah pesci is the edgelord.
Watching his plump little ass getting brutalized made my day, same as if i could watch it happen to you and your family.
>>70418567
pour vous
>>70418685
Oh my god he's a psychopath, he's like the joker or something ):
>>70416052
YA MUTHA FUCKIN MUTT YOU
By being ethnic with a mostly white audience.
The real guy Tommy Devito was based on got a new gun once. He was showing it off to Henry Hill. Some guy walking his dog came nearby. He yelled out, "Hey cocksucker!' When the guy turned out to look, he shot him.
YOU JEW MUDDA FUCKA
this scene is fucking intimidating
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JD44ouab5pc
>skilled actor
>takes hollywood by storm for 20 years
>retires and lives the good life
I don't know why more actors don't do this
>>70416040
because it was written in the script. little fucker wouldn't intimidate anyone in real life without body guards.
Pitbull mentality, napoleon syndrome, manlet rage whatever you want to call it.
>>70418791
Tommy DeSimone was 6'3 and weighted 225 pounds. Apart from being a deranged psycho he looked intimidating as well.
YOU DIZZY MOTHAFUCKA YOU

Nice bait, dummy. I fell for it.
>>70417546
Being a big guy helps.
>>70418983
Skilled being the key word. I'm sure most would if they could, but they can't all be Joe.
>>70416040
Most Italians are manlets, I am black and would never call an Italian dude a wop or a dago in real life. People use nigga casually around blacks.
It's just a matter of the demographic literally commanding respect.
>>70420260
>I am black
>can actually spell
Don't believe you.
>>70420517
Did you think blacks on 4chan were posting from public libraries in between drug transactions?
>>70416040
Cause he was a maniac
>>70416040
>How did he do it?
Old school Italians are fucking insane and won't hesitate to throw down if you so much as look at them the wrong way. Most people are wired to avoid physical confrontation at all costs, so an aggressive guy like Tommy will come off as intimidating despite his size unless you're equally psychotic.
>>70420532
yes
>>70420532
I didn't think blacks were here.
>>70420577SHEEEEEEIT
>>70420035
>pint sized pleb detected
Because he shot a guy over an insult. Manlet rage sounds most accurate.
>>70416040
Have you been to the little Italy in Manhattan!? You can literally find Joe everywhere. A dude is "IT" !!!
>>70416040
>>70416052
YOU MUTHAFUCKA YOU
>>70416040
It's funny because the character he played in Goodfellas was actually 6 3 tall in real life.
he's basically the embodiment of the Napoleon Complex in all the gangster movies he's in.
>>70420738
>same reason as why i have seen my mate who is about 5' 6" knock people out that are taller than me and i'm 6' 1"
>closer to the balls
>>70418461
I think people mostly frame it in their minds as an everyday situation, like you go down to the shopping mall and meet Hitler there, all alone and he tries to intimidate you by telling you he'll knock your teeth out if you don't do as he says. That's not that scary, but imagine standing before him when a million nazis are around and he could send you to the gas chambers at the drop of a hat.
So yeah, it all depends on the situation, same thing with Joe Pesci.
>>70420738
How? Does he have to jump to reach the other guy's jaw with a punch?
>>70417125 (You)
>>70416040
Brutal violence
because psychopathic manlets are the real deal, you know once they come unhinged that they will kill people in agonizing ways
>>70416040
Small dogs bark louder and they're more aggressive.
>>70416040
Insecure manlet with a gun.
Scary af
>>70417635
This. When you're 5'4 and don't look like Zac Efron; you have to be a good actor to get roles.
>>70420154
it's not the size of the guy that matters, but the loyalty of his guns.
>>70416040
Because your height and voice doesn't effect the probability that you will take out your gun and shoot someone in public
>>70416040
same reason a short balding fat guy with mozarella breath in his fifties came of as intimidating back then
he was connected since alot of people would have no problem taking out tommy, short fuse or not but he still had friends that would wack them if they tried
I mean, they had to have a fucking sitdown to have him wacked and he was only a associate
PEEK-A-BOO
YOU FUCKS YOU
Mainiac on the floor?
and he's dancing like she never danced before?Don't pay the ferryman
Did you fuck my wife?
>>70420260
Italians are pussies. I'm black myself and no one buys that sicilian mafia shit anymore. I've been spending several years in New York and Italians aren't any different from other white people. They see a black dude, they cross the street. Wanna see an italian call me mulean to my face, i will rock him.
>>70420029
I didn't say he wasn't. Just illustrating what a psychopath he was. A psychopath of that nature and notoriety could be 4' tall. No one would mess with him.
>Joe Pesci told Louis CK that he wasn't funny
how fucking based can one man be
because crazy short dudes are as scary as normal big guys
I always thought it was stupid. He's on the fat side too, which adds to the ridiculous.
>>70424241
kek
Typical mulignan, gonna end up in a trunk somewhere
>>70420260
> I am black
Lol quit victimising yourself you dumb nigger.
>>70417125
This sounds like a will smith song
What did he mean by this?
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hqLqzovBQw0
>>70416040
I had a buddy that was 5'2" and he was a scary motherfucker. It's not about the size of the dog. It's about the size of the fight in the dog.
>>70418685
Pic related, m'ladies, its me.
>>70418461
Hitler wasn't a manlet though
He was a bit above average for his time
>>70425893
Above average for our time is still manlet tier though. Let's be real anything under 6' is manlet mode these days.
>>70423429
did he actually shoot anyone other than that stutterin' prick spider? spider deserved it for insulting him a big bit anyway.
>>70425983
But he's not fucking alive these day, is he?
Fuckhead
>>70416040
He played characters that owned a gun and had no problem using it
>bbbbut Manlet
No matter how big or strong you are, a guy with a gun is going to win
>>70426612
bbbbut Manlet
>>70425893
You're right, he was a turbo manlet. That's even worse than a regular manlet
>Complete goofball
>Didn't even bother memorizing his lines
>Almost always refused to do more than 1 take
Still gave some of the greatest performances of all time.
Natural talent.
>No matter how big a guy might be, Nicky would take him on. You beat Nicky with fists, he comes back with a bat. You beat him with a knife, he comes back with a gun. And if you beat him with a gun, you better kill him, because he'll keep comin' back and back until one of you is dead
because he always plays a complete psychopath with no regard for self preservation
which is why his characters always die
>>70426696
Back in the 40's 5'9" was fairly tall for a man. I don't know how tall Hitler was but it was probably around that.
He's a wild card, which is a quality a lot of manlets acquire over the years of being manlet.
>>70424241
t.obongo that is literally only talk
you are so confident against amerifat whites who are afraid to get aids from your blood.
married the girl sitting on his lap
considered a genius by some
>>70426931
he never died in goodfellas
>>70427779
u wot?
>>70427779
wat
>>70427893
>>70427915
they show him shooting at the camera in the end. this means he was still alive and shot henry to avenge pauly and jimmy
>>70417125
He should stick to shining shoes
>>70427948
>there are people this retarded posting on /tv/
casino>goodfellas
>>70416040
It was the unstable factor. De Niro explained it "If you beat him with fists, he'd come back with a bat, if you beat him with a bat he'd come back with a gun, if you beat him with a gun you better bring something heavier cause he'll just keep coming back"
he's a guy who's remorseless and a sociopath who could snap at any minute. That's why 6 ft tall guys quiver whenever they pissed him off cause if he threatened to bury you in the dessert you knew it wasn't a threat it was a promise.
>>70416040
some niggas just got it some niggas dont. Thats how he was able to pull that shit off.
>>70427386
Why is this allowed?
>>70416040
the second amendment
>>70416040
"In all fairness I think I should explain to you what's it's is I do."

You would think he's carrying a gun to compensate for being short. The fact that he's Sicilian and wearing a suit makes you think he's used the gun before to kill people, possibly over petty shit.
