This scene literally shows you him folding when he has good hands so he will throw off everyone, he's good at cards because he knows when to bet and no one can read him
Johnny knew he was gonna die. He lost so much already. He wasn't about to let Roark take away his dignity too! He'd rather go out on top & humiliating his father. The better man truly did win.
I guess it's how they'll remember you in your last moments is what'll be talked about, you wanna squeal and throw people under the bus and scream and be on your knees or take it as it is, accepting it. Like how the Joker in Dark Knight said using a knife on people for their final moments made him know people better than their loved ones knew them.
This made Rouke's guy turn on him later. They didn't trust him and found it despicable that he would murder his own son over losing to him at cards. This film is underrated.
@@RetroAdzz even the worst lowlife criminals still love their sons and I'm sure these guys were disgusted and even saddened by him killing his own son.
Hi there Tak, I've never seen this film but Rouke didn't reaalise his own actions were the ulitmate full housing himself. In that sense, Johnny WAS RIGHT. The memory of how he killed his OWN SON meant everything he did after that was poisoned, in the minds of his underlings, by how even his own offspring wasn't safe from him. As soon as he killed his own Son? He lost the game of life.
WhateverItTakes True, but knowing that you've taken away bit of a man's power, made those who were terrified of him doubt him just that little bit, and knowing they'll talk about it forever. That makes it worth it.

Alot of people are on here talking about how this is “gambler’s pride,” but it really isn’t. It actually has nothing to do with the game and more so getting people to open their eyes about this evil man. Right before he got he said, “They say they wont tell, but they will!” That was him implying that people will eventually stand up to him and realize he is plain evil and has to go. He basically sacrificed himself to prove a very powerful point!
@@seewhativescenethat was JFK. Roarke is loosely based on his V.P., who had not only himself taken out w/ his mob and oil-men buddies, but even went as far as killing a son out of wedlock for “starting to talk around his 20s!”
I can agree considering I saw another comment bring up how it isn’t a “Friendly game of poker” that is Roarke as a crime boss getting his tribute, and going to his ego created a system where aside from saying he won it in poker, he gets his money in situations where he feels Lady Luck is on his side. So yeah I can see your point on him not just showing them but reminding them he’s not a man with Lady Luck on his shoulder, he’s just a man with a gun who demands everyone around him lose.
yes, and who wants to play poker with a rotten guy who doesn’t take to lose, and that explain that guy stinks at poker, all of those man had to let him win.
One thing confuses me about Roarks character. He was one of those guys that was obsessed about keeping his lineage/legacy alive. But he was unable to have any more children himself. He went out of his way to repair his sons junk after Hartigan shoot his junk off. Spending millions and turning his son into a mutant only for the chance of having grandkids. Now after his son is dead he founds out he has another healthy son. But he has nothing but disdain for him and ends up killing him himself. Basically ending his own line. It felt like it kinda didn't fit his character.
I agree, I find that weird too. Sure as pointed above, Johnny was illegitimate. But for someone going on about legacy and bloodline. You'd think he'd at-least consider accepting Johnny just for the sake of continuing his line
I think it was that Roark knew that Johnny wasn't like him at all and also could by the end of this story easily destroy him (and Johnny did destroy his untouchable reputation by besting him at Poker), so he probably thought that it wasn't worth it.
Well in Roark's eyes, he just sees a bastard son he doesn't give 2 shits about also he favored his other child more than this one. Spending so much money on him to get children.
One of the best storylines. Came from a father who valued his power more then anything . A mother who loved him but passed away suddenly. Has his fathers card tricks but is way more better then him. Even when fighting yes he passed away he still won at the final battle between him and his dad. He said the most of the last words and made a mark .
@@randybugger3006 Truly painful especially in this day and age. If you bothered to learn basic English I'd imagine it matters to you somewhat. Otherwise why bother? The entire internet at your disposal and you can't type in is "More better then him" correct?
Well yes and no. This is a very unique game of poker as in everyone there is just paying homage to Roark, hence the folding every hand even if they had great hands. The point of this poker game is not to play poker but to honor Roark. The kid got too cocky and quite frankly got what he deserved. Don't talk reckless to someone that will end your life over a comment. It was really the kids fault the entire time. The punishment was very severe and you can't change it but the kid did fuck up and had to be put in line. Roark just got humiliated infront of the people who respect him the most. Roark almost was forced to kill him or he would never be taken seriously again. You can't let some kid half your age shit on you like that and get away with it. Teach the little shit a quick lesson on respect. Too bad, he was a decent kid. Pride got that kid killed, nothing more. He easily could've walked away, even with the losses but still been alive, but the importance of standing up to Roark was worth death to him. Beautiful scene on humanity, and what hope and pride will make you do.

I am reading a lot of critics about Jhonny's attitude and choice. Relax, this is all a symbolism, to show a man can be beat, no matter what, and regardless all his power, there always be a man willing to face him, take that, because that what's supose to mean
the poker thing wasnt about poker. those guys were there to pay tribute to Roark and hold their pride at the same time. thats why the always fold. the kid either didnt realize the real purpose of the game or he knew and just wanted to prove something
Sammy Garibaldo well i didnt feel the poker game was about poker. If you remember his speech to Hartigan in the first movie, he talks about power. In this movie he equates poker with power. The cards represents the dirt of each of the men at the table. It looks like you have a politician, a LT Officer, and sum drug dealers. In order to keep their place on the top of society it looks like they are all working or at the least paying to keep their status. The Poker is a front but at the same time its a fair game that anyone can jump in on at their own peril. Thats why the officer told him not to win to much cuz this aint a real game. See the kid thought he could just hustle them boys the first time. The second time it was all about pride
Chris Allen see what I don't get why bother opening the game to the public. they could've kept the game private and this whole affair could've been avoided.

Nancy going emo and killing Roark was an original too. But that one was horrible. Ruined the character of Nancy, was pretty cringey, made absolutely no sense timeline wise as Marv was still alive. And they got Bruce Willis back for literally 60 seconds of screen time and had to pay him a few million.

Rourke made no sense. This son was smart, lucky, and decent looking. His other son was a complete loser. Killed his own actually decent son, while spending millions to save the creeper that went nowhere.
A dame to kill for was the most decent one, since it was the only story that came from the comics. You could feel the same vibes and atmosphere than in the first movie.
Sorry, I always thought this was stupid. Johnny supposedly "wins" by proving he was a better player. Oh please! _Everybody already knew_ Roarke ddidn't win all the time because he's the best player; he always won because he had power, wasn't afraid of using it, and everyone else was afraid of him. So nobody dared to beat him. They knew it. He knew it. _Everyone_ knew it. His winning was never about being the best, it was about rubbing everyone else's nose in the fact that they were weaker and he _didn't need_ skill to beat them. So Johnny didn't prove a damn thing, and he threw his life away not proving it. In fact, I would argue that all he did was reinforce Roarke's power, because they all knew what would happen if anybody dared to beat Roarke, and all Johnny did was remove any last lingering shred of doubt that that was a bluff.
I think the point was that unlike anyone playing against roak. Johnny had the balls to to play and beat him and wasn't intimidated by the power he had or afraid of the result if he did beat him. So ultimately it was the one who had the last laugh type of ordeal. Going out by at least having your enemy be caught with their pants down type of situations. But that's just my perspective of it all.
Not criticizing the performances here, but this is an example of how I felt this movie was a little too bleak... pointlessly bleak. We're raging over a poker game and all this "Johnny won in the end" jibbah jabbah is really just a blip on the radar in the crazy Sin City world. Also this particular story was created specifically for the second film and for the sole purpose to overly antagonize Roark so we can get some "satisfaction" in his demise towards the end in another story made for the film, I guess.
All these silly two shoes comments about how supposedly he was the "better man" and the "real winner" in this. But imagine dying over a game of cards (esp. since he must've known that the other guy practically had the power to kill him). Also, at this rate he might've straight up tried to kill the guy if he was feeling suicidal instead of trying to "beat" him in some bullshit card game.
I always loved this scene. But realistically what's the point of playing against someone that will inevitably win every time? No one would bother to play against him.
saying "if i could give any young man advice it'd be this: wear a rubber" before shooting your illegitimate son in the head is one of the coldest, most evil things someone could ever do. Senator Roarke is a great villain
I really wanted to like the movie. I love dark comics and the brilliant imaginations out there. However there was something not quite right with Dime for a Dame. It felt like a really nice flavoured bubble-gum but the taste on the tongue was short-lived. Sin City? Well, that is is whole different packet of gum!
See, the problem why this failed and the OG Sin City worked was the protagonists in the original were kind of insane assholes. But the villains were even worse somehow. Really laid down that no hope feeling. This guy is like an anime protagonist
Plus, Johnny says he's "better" than Rourke when all he does in order to win is draw the nuts each time. That's not really being a good player, it's just being a lucky asshole.
2:39 soundtrack from M Night Shyamalan's The Village begins here. Not noticed it before. That shimmering violin. Comes from the scene when Joachim Phoenix grabs Bryce Dallas Howard from the porch and leads her inside to safety.
Usually with the bad people everyone leaves and abandons them, they die completely isolated and no one gives a fuck when they die. Roark probably never felt love from anyone in his entire life and would die with no one to grieve him.
Scene was almost ruined by Levitt explaining the importance of him winning the card game. To on the nose. At best, its lazy. That said, this was the best scene in the movie
I don't think people grasped the power dynamics and the true meaning of this scene. Johnny didn't win, there's no winning in his final crusade to fight against Roark. Roark screwed his mother, killed his newly met blonde, broke his hand, he destroyed and humiliated everything Johnny loved or cared about, yet he fought back with defiance. Instead of accepting defeat, Johnny went through extreme humiliation to play the game with only one hand, yet his victory backfired at him. Notice when Johnny made his monologue he gave a flicker of grin, but quickly disappeared as Roark stood up and pulled out a gun. Roark shot him and tossed him out like he was just a minor inconvenience. Johnny's defiance and victory is completely shattered useless as Roark is playing a far more vicious game, a game with power. It doesn't matter how skilled you are or how smart you are, the man with power will always triumph in the sin city. Just like in real life

Oh please! _Everybody already knew_ Roarke ddidn't win all the time because he's the best player; he always won because he had power, wasn't afraid of using it, and everyone else was afraid of him. So nobody dared to beat him. They knew it. He knew it. _Everyone_ knew it. His winning was never about being the best, it was about rubbing everyone else's nose in the fact that they were weaker and he _didn't need_ skill to beat them. So Johnny didn't prove a damn thing, and he threw his life away not proving it. In fact, I would argue that all he did was reinforce Roarke's power, because they all knew what would happen if anybody dared to beat Roarke, and all Johnny did was remove any last lingering shred of doubt that that was a bluff.
DAMN.....I'm glad SOMEONE fucking said it... stupid and useless waste of an otherwise cool character...
He couldn't handle the yo mama jokes and went all out.
Totally agree, no sense in tickling the dragon, play stupid games win stupid prizes.
why does anyone play with him to begin with?
I think the point was that unlike anyone playing against roak. Johnny had the balls to to play and beat him and wasn't intimidated by the power he had or afraid of the result if he did beat him. So ultimately it was the one who had the last laugh type of ordeal. Going out by at least having your enemy be caught with their pants down type of situations. But that's just my perspective of it all.
Not criticizing the performances here, but this is an example of how I felt this movie was a little too bleak... pointlessly bleak. We're raging over a poker game and all this "Johnny won in the end" jibbah jabbah is really just a blip on the radar in the crazy Sin City world. Also this particular story was created specifically for the second film and for the sole purpose to overly antagonize Roark so we can get some "satisfaction" in his demise towards the end in another story made for the film, I guess.
Joseph Gordon-Levitt underrated, which is a good thing.
Playing with Roark is amazing! If you win, you'll get death
He should have just left the city and lived his life.
This story was great, it was about a dude that all he wanted was to get a good shot in, even if it meant his life
This was a legendary scene and death. If you think otherwise you have not understood it properly
He knew he was dying. He used his death as a scyte to his father neck.
The move was brilliant in a way.
All these silly two shoes comments about how supposedly he was the "better man" and the "real winner" in this.
But imagine dying over a game of cards (esp. since he must've known that the other guy practically had the power to kill him).
Also, at this rate he might've straight up tried to kill the guy if he was feeling suicidal instead of trying to "beat" him in some bullshit card game.
I just noticed the 666s and king card. Around 1:04
Pretty neat symbolism!
Subliminal messages maybe?
@@fakenut6180
So here's my interpretation.
The 666 symbolizes how evil Roarke's character is.
The King is pretty simple.
He's the King Of Sin City.
As a great man once said; “…. Who the FUCK IS THAT GUY!”
Lol
I always loved this scene. But realistically what's the point of playing against someone that will inevitably win every time?
No one would bother to play against him.
It's a bribe and a sighn of Submission. "I follow you so you don't have to worry about me"
saying "if i could give any young man advice it'd be this: wear a rubber" before shooting your illegitimate son in the head is one of the coldest, most evil things someone could ever do. Senator Roarke is a great villain
Hello
Thank you all for your support and love I really appreciate for your comments and likes
I like how he though the cards down on the table I got chills every time I watch🥶🥶this scene
The eagle view outsmarted the one who accually never got elected to Congress
"You can help your delicate sensibilities by turning the fuck away!"
Them 2 robbed my joint! And that's where they're gonna be dealt with!
I only just noticed, but the music in the background at around 2:20 is from The Village.
Four aces and one eight...not quite the typical Dead Man's Hand, but close enough.
I really wanted to like the movie. I love dark comics and the brilliant imaginations out there. However there was something not quite right with Dime for a Dame. It felt like a really nice flavoured bubble-gum but the taste on the tongue was short-lived. Sin City? Well, that is is whole different packet of gum!
See, the problem why this failed and the OG Sin City worked was the protagonists in the original were kind of insane assholes. But the villains were even worse somehow. Really laid down that no hope feeling. This guy is like an anime protagonist
1:29 I know the whole movie is pretty much CGI, but did they really need to CGI the cards?
CGI is the future
Madness ? THIS IS SIN CITY !
I always fall asleep trying to watch this movie.
I really didn't like this story. Doesn't attract many people to your table if the winning hand earns you a lead migraine.
Plus, Johnny says he's "better" than Rourke when all he does in order to win is draw the nuts each time. That's not really being a good player, it's just being a lucky asshole.
Story of my life!
someone lost .... his life
He didn’t live an honest life, but at least he could die with pride.
2:39 soundtrack from M Night Shyamalan's The Village begins here. Not noticed it before. That shimmering violin. Comes from the scene when Joachim Phoenix grabs Bryce Dallas Howard from the porch and leads her inside to safety.
🃏♠️♣️♥️♦️ “I beat you, Forever!”
"Hey, you hear Roark lost cards to some guy?"
"Oh.....neat I guess...."
Everyone at the table after the shooting:
"Same time next week?"
*R.I.P. Powers Boothe*
Such a good actor
got to love those cgi cards, they couldn't just get a guy to slide real ones across the table for that shot
Now they all know what happens when you do - a perfect comeback, even when Roark was defeated. Can't say that defeat mattered really anyway.
Recognize James Newton Howard's score from The Village there.
Moral of this story is that bad people always win.
The good die young and so it continues.
Usually with the bad people everyone leaves and abandons them, they die completely isolated and no one gives a fuck when they die. Roark probably never felt love from anyone in his entire life and would die with no one to grieve him.
Only in this film, though
there are no good people
He folded Jack's full !!!! What!!!!!
10s full
My bad
That boy if he is risky that is why he sought his death
Scene was almost ruined by Levitt explaining the importance of him winning the card game. To on the nose. At best, its lazy.
That said, this was the best scene in the movie
3:33 Don’t be a fool wrap your tool.
Very poetic. I would have thrown a grenade in the damn room...on the table....if i were a graphic novel character.
The other guys are just gonna stay and keep losing? Or try to win and get killed? Weird
This is a movie that stuck with me after watching it !!
Same man....
Does it bug anyone else that they reused the soundtrack from The Village?
Myles Coyne i never noticed that lol
I Like how you added a soundtrack from the village.
Moral Victory ✌️
"Take out that trash, let's get back to the game" lol my man 😄
Powers Boothe just oozed villainy- must have been the eyebrows idk
Interesting choice of music..The Village 😎
The village soundtrack is playing behind the drama here haha, shit just realised..
I've played ALOT of poker, but l've never seen a 4 of a kind or a royal straight flush; and only one or two straight flushes.
MR. Gordon Levitt he is the ``poker winner`` and also very very funny person in this Sin City movie 😅😅😅
People saying Johnny won in his death are sure losers in real life. Wear a rubber guys.
I don't think people grasped the power dynamics and the true meaning of this scene. Johnny didn't win, there's no winning in his final crusade to fight against Roark. Roark screwed his mother, killed his newly met blonde, broke his hand, he destroyed and humiliated everything Johnny loved or cared about, yet he fought back with defiance. Instead of accepting defeat, Johnny went through extreme humiliation to play the game with only one hand, yet his victory backfired at him. Notice when Johnny made his monologue he gave a flicker of grin, but quickly disappeared as Roark stood up and pulled out a gun. Roark shot him and tossed him out like he was just a minor inconvenience. Johnny's defiance and victory is completely shattered useless as Roark is playing a far more vicious game, a game with power. It doesn't matter how skilled you are or how smart you are, the man with power will always triumph in the sin city. Just like in real life
ooooh poor little bald baby, his ego got hurt
The music you added gets mixed with the movie music and sounds horrible.
Met Powers Boothe in 2000 and he was a cool guy.
