He's obviously amazing in Sopranos. His role in True Romance is very underrated.

If his ex-wife was to be believed in their 2002 custody dispute, then this isn't that surprising, unfortunately. Good actor though, and too young to die for any reason (except for mass murder -- I think if you mass murder then you kind of throw away your own right to a long life.)

He was getting really big. Seen him in say Crimson Tide? Today... no way he'd have fit thru the hatch.

Same reason it wasn't surprising John Hughes died relatively young.

This was my first thought when I heard. Obviously he was great in The Sopranos but I will always
remember his role as a goon in True Romance. Saw that movie on my first date with the ex wife.
Really good movie and he had a very memorable role in it.

a lot of hand wringing over a one role actor...two roles as he was believable in The Mexican...other than that he always seemed miscast as anything other than a character actor

No, in a surprising move, the wife pulled out a gun and killed the hitman.

And tony choked on an onion ring due to the shock of the occasion and didn't make it, leaving Carmella as the new feared Boss of Bosses.

Or did the hitman kill Carmella, A.J. and Meadow and leave Tony alive to suffer?

No, that's Fight Club.

Saw a guy downtown wearing a fight club T shirt

I thought to myself, "Thats AT LEAST two rules you're breaking right there"


Panther, that is the rule, but shit happens. Remember the end of Casino?

Ferrreal, I mean you gotta take a leak, or, worse, drop a deuce, and old guy is monopolizing the shitter forever and you finally decide you can't wait anymore and open the door and there's old dude kaput on the can.

What do you do, push him in the tub and do your business or go down to the lobby?
