When I was young, Johnny Torrio was old, now I am old, Butch is still old - Paulie "Walnuts"
Johnny Torio was later reincarnated as Butch a made man in the Lupertazzi family
Acting Boss by 2007 if memory serves....
Some people wanted it that way, lets hope there is not ill will in it
I assume its because this took place much earlier, kayfabe wise, ofc not at the time of recording, so I still take this as newer
Sharp as a fuckin cue ball
LOL WTF
We need a Gyp Rossetti story. They won’t call you Ceerious “The Boss”, they’ll call you Ceerious “The King”
Please do, he was the best guest in this series

THE MAN HARBORS A DENTIST!
I loved him like he was my brother in law.

Historically, Masseria always said Atlantic City is nothing more than a glorified crew. We decapitate and do business with what is left. Let me tell you a couple of three things: Forget Maranzano, forget Frank who goes over to Cicero and never comes back, forget Rothstein.
Quasimodo predicted all that
That’s ‘cause Ioele didn’t consider salads.
Gyp Rossetti, whatever happened there...
Take out an entire fuckin' family ?
Cicero is such a niceish place
*Torrio* is such a legendary character, he understands the power of being underestimated and staying low-key. Doesnt show arrogance or boastfull behavior instead he plays weak and complains. Doesnt show his ambition but has plenty, kills his lifelong mentor to get rich in the bootlegging. Claims to want nothing to do with Greek town but happely takes over. *ALWAYS* being underestimated big Jim underestimated *Torrios* Ambition and gets killed other bosses ( *Nucky and A.R* for example ) underestimate him and he takes over chicago. He plays weak in his war for Greek town and his enemys happely believe it and get assassinated for it cause they underestimated him. *Nucky* later on underestimated *Torrio* believing him out of the game and retired altho *Torrio* distance himself from the failed assassination on *Nucky* while setting him up for the next one in the same breath meanwhile hes telling him to retire. *Morale of the story dont show urself, and use the power of people underestimating you.*
Right on! Dude played it perfectly.
Underestimated isn’t the only word in the world you said it like 30 times🤣
Yep. Don't reveal your hand until either you have to, or you know it can win the game.
Actually all that is in Sun Tzu and more.
Thanks for the dissertation 😏
Stephen Graham as Al Capone is just unreal in this show. He played it so well. Great actor if honest
Yeah, and I'm playing shortstop for the Mets.
Nah.. He's the best modern day al capone
He's an actor where if I see him in a show or movie, I know there's a great chance it's going to be good. He was great in Taboo as well.
@@reinubeton what film was that line from? Definitely a film I've watched just can't remember the film
How someone hasn't made a movie with him as Capone is beyond me.
I know these edits must be hard to do, let alone collecting the clips. Really grateful for this kind of entertainment.
when i do them. i literally have to go through every scene. scan, its like rewatching it but fast. then when im done i enjoy it like the rest...sometimes an hour compilation takes a week or 2. i definitely appreciate you and everyone else who subscribes and we have our conversations about what we all love together ❤️ awesome community.
@@ceeriousThank you!

Seriously, i didn't expect to watch an hour long video when i laid down to go to sleep last night
These edits are great this person definitely has the makings of a varsity athlete 😮
Earning $100 per day in that era is bonkers.
Thats like 5k a day now!
@@CoreyT127 $1600 adjusted for inflation.

Stephan Graham and Michael Pitt killed it as 20s era gangsters!
Using the word gangster is so cringe
@@KeWhite-u2j The word was literally invented to describe the type of people in these videos.
@@KeWhite-u2jle criiiinge
Stephen Graham is probably my favorite living actor these days
@@KeWhite-u2j gangs are so cringe
Johnny looks like fuckin Stevie Wondah his eyes rollin around. How can he be okay if he’s askew?
hey dont mess with my boy Torrio! 😄
Torrio is sitting at 12 o’clock.
He can sit there till St Gennaro. It’ll still have to be dealt with.
His eyes wanted to be one way but they're the other way
@@ceerious all due respect skip he’s a bit of a poseur
That animal from A.C, I can't even say his name...
hes earnin in 2 centuries and its still not good to satisfy that animal.
“47, he was a f*cking toddler. Me, I’m an old man.”

Sorry guys, Philly went to the can for 20 years, he's abit fresh.
@@easiesteevee2532you did insult him a little bit
Torrio really has two perspectives on the world
Fuckin’ guy can see bot’ endzones in a football game! Sounds like a gift from god, ask me
@@mcrichton46I definitely read your comment in that accent 😂
I never realized that the attempted assassination on Capone was Torrio, that's wild. I always thought it was just capone taking over, but Johnny moved first.
Maybe in this but not according to the history books it wasn't. It was the northside gang in retaliation for Dean O Bannion getting whacked in his flower shop.Hymie Wiess went mad after the killing of his friend and witnesses statements from the time had him as one of the shooters. He had terminal cancer so he just didn't care and his mission in life was to kill Capone before the cancer got him. History also has the two who shot Torrio as Wiess and Bugs Moran from the northside gang and bug's gun run out of bullet as he put it to Johny's head then the driver honked the horn as people were coming. In this Torrio thinks Capone tried to kill him so he gave it all up to Al. He did do that but it wasn't actually Al who tried to kill him it was the Northside gang
@@davidmellish3295Supposedly, it was future Outfit Boss Anthony Accardo who jumped on top of Capone right before the shooting started.
It was Heimy Weiss
@@Vercingetorix.RisingI watched video today which stated.Capones savior that day was Paul Ricca
people like torrio are dangerous, they can lul you into thinking your best friends, then bam set up.
Just like Butch lol. He gave up Phil in the very end lmao
Luciano damn sure was LUCKY to live that long
I love this! Seeing an entire characters scenes throughout a series is always great! Keep up the great work!
thank you! much appreciated
@@ceerious He's not kidding.
Your work has taught me that this is the best way to enjoy shows. 😃👌

It's undignified.
If i watch a clip of Downton Abbey and see the sopranos comment section has taken over i wont be surprised
😆
Ballpark Figure?
Yeah yeah yeah, Wembley F****n stadium
Love how Capone was the only one who actually went out of his way to always try to help Nucky once Jimmy was killed. Still not convinced if Capone sent the hit on Johnny in the show but Torrio was a slippery guy.
I think they wanted new fans to think it was Capone for drama, but we all know O'Banion did it. Torrio was right all along about O'Banion
@@ceeriousstunad, obanion was dead already
@@janitorthrow2588 Was Obanions crew, most likely bugs moran or heime weiss...
@@FranklinSninsky it was allegedly Hymie Weiss, Bugs Moran and a third person whose name I can't remember who did it. Torrio says his name in the show after the attempted hit on Capone. It was all in vengeance for the murder of Dean O'Banion.
@@mastod0n1 The show is not 100% true to history though I have read all the major Al Capone books that have fact checked historical accuaracy, appeacite ur comment tho ! ;p
Ceerious we gotta stop meeting like this
Greg Antonacci - one of my favorite characters in Boardwalk Empire and one of my most hated in Sopranos. What a great actor
definitely up there with the greats
46:00 2024 and the handshake of death never gets old, so sad he had no idea that be his last handshake.
The way Al Capone raises it to 50 after they already agreed on 25 is hilarious.😂
i think the scene is shot in a way to show the division of classes during America's gilded age. The beginning shot shows people getting their shoes polished, then when joe colombo (i think that is his name) is talking to the hotel assistant he doesn't even look in his direction while the assistant is looking right at him. Simple yet conveys the message well, good directing.
"I'm, sellin' f*ckin' Nehi now?" 🤣🤣
Rothstein gave Nucky some solid advice!
Torrio was a fantastic character, a testament to Greg Antonucci performance. Great actor may he R.I.P.
At 30:16 the same marching sound sample has been used that has been made famous by Red Alert- Hell March soundtrack. Lol.
I was going to comment this lol.

ayyy thank you brother ❤️
@@ceerious for sure! Keep it up
@@hockeyguy9974 you got it!
No more butchie..
No more of this..
Johnny Torrio. The Criminal Mastermind!!!
I forgot , The actor playing Al Capone played a character named ' Tommy ' in a Guy Richie film called ' Snatch' , Great flick & an excellent actor.
excellent indeed! I saw him in the Irishman too
Stephen Graham.
I am an avid fan of his, he starred in a BBC series titled "Time" which also stars Sean Bean who he acts alongside. 3 Fantastic episodes for the 1st season and the 2nd changes location and characters with the same theme for 3 more fantastic episodes.
He was also Sgt. Ranney in Band of Brothers.

When Al said "You start worrying about what people want, you'll go batty" is true. If you start to worry about what people worry about toward you or for you or feel towards you, you will go exceedingly crazy and be torn down mentally and when the mental go you are done.
that almost happened to me recently. i cared too much
I swear and this is why I decided to type that statement out. I have no clue if that revelation came from god and brought me here or what. I was just thinking about this earlier at the track jogging. You cannot allow family, relatives (totally different), nay sayers, people who act as a friend but are really foes and so on opinions about you or your thoughts about how they may feel effect you.
You will miss out on a very prosperous and great life doing so. Be completely independent of other's opinions about your life. I've ran into old people also trying to give fake advice under the guise of them being old, wise and caring. I have ears like a hawk and overheard the man say, right as he though I was further enough not to be able to hear, "I told him that bs to fuck with him" with his old friend both laughing until I turned around.
I said nothing and kept walking because one rule is, if its worth it, you never allow people who think they have a drop on you to know that you are aware of their intentions unless its required to do so.@@ceerious
@@jamest1242r it might of. i needed to hear this brother. i was sick in bed for over 2 months. lost 35 lbs. was so stressed. i took a break from everything and now im getting better. i deeply appreciate this. God bless you.
Its exceptional man. keep up the good work. I hope you get better and stay on the road of success @@ceerious
@@jamest1242r thank you bro i appreciate it ❤️
"I might! I might care!" Hilarious delivery 😂
i love that delivery
Was so fatherly the way he told Capone to behave himself.
- "Remus read the Volstead act, very closely"
- "We oughta be in business with him"
- "The f*** you talking about ? ... HE'S Remus"
13:28 "Here's a standard operating procedure" - Patsi Parisi aka the nipple scraper
He asked if Romulus was his partner 😂 al Capone unintentionally hilarious
Love the handmade😊😊 suits!
20 years in the can, I wanted a grilled cheese. I compromised. I held a piece of chedduh over a candle and smeared it on bread.
The way they filmed/edited Torrio's shooting to pay homage to Don Corleone's shooting in The Godfather, now makes me wonder if Mario Puzo took inspiration from Torrio when he wrote that passage of the novel.
I loved this show . Especially the first season. My favorite character was Arnold Rothstein.
seen a interview with Mr Antonacci and bro
was wearing a "Rolling Stones" t -shirt. must had
a good taste of music.😎
Jonny torrio was actually my favorite mob boss in this series .his only real headache was controlling al capone ?whats with this johnny shit 😂
lmao. yea him and arnold were my fav characters
Thank you for this ceerious , you're the man , the strong , silent type.
I did love the introduction to Al.
Me too
Stephen Graham is a great actor
Duh
We need a Al Capone one. That would be great
11:55
Anyone ever noticed the sound of the gun Sliding over the counter as the girl hands it to jimmy?😮
I swear I must have watched this clip a 1000 times and I just noticed it today!
30:15 someone in backround is playing red alert really really loud
LOL only real ones get it
"You're an inspiration to us all"
Here ya go guys. Enjoy. Cent' Anni
Hey Ceerious…. I know we never met but ….
“I’m askin’ ya, are you fuckin’ deaf?” Amazing delivery 😂😂
This is a great way of abridging the show. Do it character by character 👌🏾
indeed! i have more coming. thats my favorite style.
@@ceerious love it. Surprised you don't have more views.
The man lived through the rise of the gangs, earned a lot of money, retired peacefully, and even helped the younger generation to found The Commission. And he died peacefully, which is a luxury I think most made guys can't afford
Please do Arnold Rothstein!
Amazing to watch the mob in its pre-Capone days. Lucky and Capone were unknown young chooches.
Nucky never had the makings of varsity criminal.
haha. Nucky Johnson did though
We share Nicky therefore we share the fruits of Nucky
Bone for Tuna
Bon Fortuna. Bon Chance. Bon Voyage.
No more Torrio No More
I always found these scenes odd. I remember on my last watch through i just couldnt understand it. Where these guys part of the Esplanade? I dont get how they tie in with the jersey thing
Prohibition and The Castellammarese War.
Ah so this is Clarences crew?
@@AB0VETHALAW yes
Torrio’s speech starting at 35:22 is one of my favorite monologues of the show. Very allegorical.
58:18 Phil’s famous grilled cheese on the radiator recipe dates back a hundred years
you check my cheese melt short? lol
@@ceerious no actually did you already make the same video lmao
@@ceerious haha i just found it i figured someone thought of it already
@@pimas11 hey great minds think alike 😊
The Leotardos compromise the moment they got off the boat
Johnny Torrio once watched Tony Soprano kick Coco's teeth out in an epic curb stomp.
Oh to the days without cameras. Chaos, anarchy, just insane wild times with unlimited possibilities.
I've seen every episode at least 3x. Still, much like with The Sopranos, all it takes is a single short and before you know it, 2 hours have gone by.
Next to only another HBO Original Series, The Leftovers, this is by far the most underrated and unappreciated series in the history of television....and it's not as if millions and millions of people aren't fans, or the show received unfavorable reviews by critics. Quite the opposite. It drew universal critical acclaim. Despite it all, it never got the love it truly deserved. An absolute masterpiece.
This compilation was one of the best I've seen, and I really enjoy the way you format these videos, each being centered around a single character. So, yea. Appreciate the effort man. I know this takes a significant amount of time to create.
im working on gyp, arnold, meyer and lucky too at the moment. thank you my friend. i appreciate it. stay tuned for more ❤️
"I think youd agree Greek Town belongs to us now..." Best Jimmy line
New favorite channel on YT currently.
thank you 😊 I appreciate that!
"Im selling fuckn Nehi now ??"😂😂😂
Ceerious. Until you pay what you owe this shaved channel belongs to me.
😂
🤣🤣🤣
i love it when he says “whats whit this johnny shit”, he demands respect at all times, great writing and even greater actor to say it; johnny torio took the stage for me in this series.
How did I only just realize that Herc was in Boardwalk Empire?
The cast for Boardwalk was stacked! More and more stars show up as it goes on its nuts
Its the Hairc...
Guy is in everything. Tulsa King, Reacher too. Solid actor.
@@TheCartman997not to mention The Irishman
I just realized Hymie Weiss is Finn DeTrolio from The Sopranos. No wonder Finn doesn’t understand the plight of the Mezzogiorno!
“Romulus couldn’t make it” 😂😂😂
Jimmy shoulda stayed in chicago
agreed
The actor who plays Luciano has the best downward predatory smile with a slight downward incline
I absolutely love Butch, I mean Torrio.
Love that you put all these Johnny Torrio clips together! Would you be able to add Meyer Lansky to your future projects?
yes i loved him and lucky. both in the show and real life stories
@@ceerious Can't wait to see it! I'll stay subscribed
@@jameslaurich9491 i appreciate that!
I like that idea too.
@@DrJ-hx7wv im about 30% done with arnold rothstein. its comin out good. alot of meyer lansky in it too.
Torrio was a man’s Man in real life what I read about he cared about the people in his Neighborhood
Every gangster on the planet has that ''really cared about the neighbourhood'' cliche/trope attached to their reputation. They do it to buy silence. The only care about themselves.
We gotta stop meeting like this
Best Torrio..❤❤❤
look at Johnny Torio, the other eye looking over here and the other eye over there
Butch barely aged a day from 1920s Jersey to 2000s Jersey.
he was strong as a bull (Ironically resembled Sammy the Bulls Character in the Sopranos) handsome like George Raft.
Someone say compromise? What's this the fuckin league of nations now?!
Ive always wondered.. he sold 500 crates of Canadian club.. that should be 10,000 bottles of alcohol. Was 60k a good price.. or was nuck getting over? Is that why rothstein stopped for a second?
I learned today the REAL remis wife stole all of his money from him with her lover
I love it.
Nothing else is better.
If I was jimmy I would’ve tried to move my fam to Chicago and left Atlantic City in the past 100%😂
Do Al Capone next
im working on Gyp and its the hardest one so far. 2 hours of screenplay turned into 47 mins. i got the best dialogue and scenes though. Certain music and visuals get blocked. I hope Capone isnt the same way. Gyp took 2 weeks lol
@@ceerious damn that’s wild bro, keep up the good work 👍
@@LouieOcean. thanks bro
Well put together.
i appreciate it.
Great show
Hey ceerious thanks for these uploads man…been binging on them for weeks now…with no end in sight
Cmon John you can’t give me a few lousy blocks in my own territory
Torrio and al were so funny together
I hate how they cut boardwalk empire short. I would have loved to see Al vs Hymie Weiss for a whole season
Torio was the only one smart enough to make his money and get out.
Borko….i dunno, he’s changed…..you got my word, we’ll back off
Hey his sons deaf
