Do Italian-Americans and / or native Italians find the Sopranos to be racist?
>>56193660
do italian-brazilians count too?
anyways, regardless of that i don't think anyone would consider it racist
>>56193717
not really, italian-americans and italo-brasileiros have totally diferent realities. while in the usa most part of the immigrants were from the south in brazil was from the north.
plus nobody here have any actual racism towards italians

>"Wanna' hear a joke? Okay, so this Chinaman goes to the eye doctor. Doctor tells him 'Sir, you've got a cataract.' The Chinaman looks back at the eye doctor and says 'What? I drive a Rincoln Continental!'"
>>56193660
The ones that consider italo-americans italians are not italians for sure.
>>56193660

Why are you lot so bitter about Italian Americans
Btw it's one of the greatest tv series of all time , with in my opinion the greatest tv character of all time - you should give it a go
>>56195491
Give me one reason i should watch an american show about something that's supposedly my culture
>>56195491
>Why are you lot so bitter about Italian Americans
We're not. We don't like the fact that Italian American culture is considered Italian culture in America.
>>56195541
It's not your culture, it's American culture. The reason to watch the show is that it's the best tv show ever made.
>>56195541
It's not a show about Italian culture , it's Italian American culture and east coast American life in general
You should watch it because it is a universally acclaimed show , which can legitimately be said have changed television reprogramming
>>56195708
>It's not a show about Italian culture , it's Italian American culture
Which is the same thing to most people, also thanks to shows like this
>You should watch it because it is a universally acclaimed show
Fair enough but i don't watch things because people say they are good, i watch them because i like the plot, theme or something
>>56195810
>Which is the same thing to most people, also thanks to shows like this
The show goes out of its way to show how distant they are from Italian culture.
>>56195810
I would honestly give it a.watch mate, even just the first season and i can bet you will be hooked
I'm not all that into to Mafia /crime genre either - but the sopranos is totally different , Tony alone will keep you hooked to it
Italians are the most butthurt users on /int/ I know the faggots are always crying about muh culture go cuddle your mama and eat some more spice meatbal you pussies.

Actually to all the Italian fags in this thread they do an episode where the Jersey gangsters go Italy and are so lost. I love when Paulie is like, "where's the tomato sauce?"

The Sopranos is an existential character study that explores the inherently destructive patterns of human relationships, that nails the way people interact beyond any other show. Characters are so occupied in their own little worlds, they lie to each other constantly but this isn't laid explicitly for the audience. The show is also about generation rifts, nostalgia, the human capacity to change, determinism, free will, the decline of the mafia as an allegory for America's decline and the American cultural zeitgeist at the turn of the 21st century. It's also about human mortality, the fact that we're so caught up in everyday trivial activities as opposed to what's truly fleeting in life. Of course, there are themes of identity, religion, morality etc. The show encompasses the multi-faceted nature of life better than anything ever filmed, it's surreal, realistic, mundane, exciting, depressing, hilarious, tense, melancholic, zany, riveting, evocative. The show is structurally playful, defying all expectations, neither purely serialized nor episodic, it constantly asks questions to the audience. It's cinematic yet not flashy, it's philosophical, self-aware and longue duree. Gandolfini expresses every range of human emotion in his role as Tony Soprano and ascends beyond the confines of the genre to give a character truly human. The Sopranos is the greatest television show of all time.

Gotta' be honest..
Wasn't expecting this level of analysis from Trinidad and Tobago

>italian character
>huge cuck nose
>>56193660
It's no more racist than Breaking Bad. Seriously who gives a shit?
>>56193660
Nah, if it was racist towards them we'd have no way to know, we have nothing in common apart from them trying to squabble our words
It didn't seem racist though, it's about mafia people talkin with mafia people, why would it have many non-mafiosi?
If anything it was the opposite, too much crying about racism towards them when they pretty much all deserved it
no because there really is no identity there to target at this point

But that's how people act in real life sometimes... sereiously do you think because /tv/ made a meme out of one line of the show it means the whole show is a shitty meme?
What's your problem? Why are you so insecure about Italian-Americans? Nobody thinks they're real Italians, they're an American ethnic group. Like someone else said, the show goes out of it's way to show how many lower class Italian Americans are uncultured and annoyingly American Italian-Americans are compared to actual Italians and the mob in Italy.
Stop being sucha little faggot, Jesus Christ

Gee thanks
>Why are you so insecure about Italian-Americans?
Where did you take that from? Are you that offended at the idea that we don't have much in common that you take my post as a personal insult?
