Some people say Tony wanted to bang his sister
Eh.
shareI have two different opinions and I'm not sure, one is that he is the classic overprotective brother that doesn't want his younger sister to go out with bad guys, but more psycho because he was pretty crazy.
Other is that their scenes made me uncomfortable, from their first to the last and the thought really crossed my mind, especially with that last scene she is telling him to *beep* her, because it really seems he doesn't want her to have anything and he just gunned down his friend without even asking, he just got way too psychotic over it, to the point you are not sure if it's in a psychotic brotherly way or in a psychotic repressed incest desire, or both.
The universe isn’t evil, John, it’s just indifferent.
love the music and the camera shots of tonys eyes following his sister. pure de palma.
shareThere was definitely a weird relationship between the two. He killed his best friend for being in a relationship with her. A guy he could trust who would probably be really good to her and he kills him. Tony's mind was a serious *beep* and loads of cocaine didn't help the situation. I don't think he wanted to bang her so much as he just didn't want anyone else to.
shareI alway thought that he did not wan anyone with no matter if they were good. I think he wanted to keep her almost virginal and innocent. The only way she would have been with someone is if she had a relationship on the low and married them, well, except for Manny. Had the circumstances off the discovery of her being married to anyone else been different, he may not have reacted in such a drastic way, He was worried abbout her and his mother was stresssing him out akong with the whole columbian drama and not knowing were mannny was just made the whole thing worse. However, I dont believe he ever wanted to bang her, just keep her innocent from any man.
shareThink all he could see himself with was his sister and the only man he could see her with is himself.
shareno... gina wanted to bang HIM. thats why she yelled "*beep* ME TONY!" over and over, and he just went "whatchu talking???"
shareI heard conflicting takes on it..even from the cast. Its obvious he was at least overprotective to a very unhealthy extent. Chasing away some guys like the guy in the club..I could see that. But hitting her out of anger showed it wasn't the typical brotherly protection.
Sort of torn on Manny. He knew Manny was a criminal like him but they were close and he still knew Manny was fiercely loyal. Most of the upstanding men would have been too intimidated and Tony wouldn't stand for another in his line of work to get close. Truthfully he would have to conclude he would have hit the jackpot with Manny. He would always be able to keep a close eye on things and he knew his best friends loyalty; they were like brothers.
Still, the overwhelming emotion, the drugs, etc.. just sent him over the edge.

Like in Breaking Bad all Walt could really love after getting into drug dealing was his children and the other character Mike his granddaughter.
