This is how it is done:





Ignoring stupid questions? Check.

Speaking in statements? Check.

Sharp suit? Check.

Cigarette? Check.

Real Game.

If people just watched this scene, the whole PUA industry would implode within 24 hours.

Discuss.

Mountains of blow and cash doesn't hurt either.

I like the scene at Babylon. Frank won't dance with her and Tony does. He takes her to the dance floor and spits direct no bullshit game to the woman of his drug king pin boss. Not Beta.

The way Tony talks in this scene is a good blue print for all those posters asking text advice.

Text like Tony Montana talks!!!

I forget how hot some of these ladies were 20-30 years ago. I always wish the heat blimp would display THE WORLD IS YOURS.

I like this scene better:

Those look like silk sheets.

I just bought satin sheets and they suck. Fucking polyester is mad agitating.

Does anyone have experience with silk sheets?

Eighty percent of that movie is tight game, on all three corners of the great baller triumvirate: money, power, and women.





That said, Tony has serious one-itis for Elvira.





Tony's also a white knight. He white knights for that snitching journalist's wife and his kids, who he was supposed to kill for Sosa, botching the job by shooting the trained Colombian assassin.





Ultimately, his white-knighting for his sister (putting a broad before his bro, Manolo, who was with him through thick and thin, from the beginning) ultimately does him in.





Scarface is in my personal list of top 10 movies of all-time, but you gotta call that one like it is.

What's interesting is that if you eliminated his oneitis and white knighting, he might have flourished instead of getting killed.

Also, I think that we, as players, should slightly redefine what it means to be a white knight.

The biggest problem I have with white knighting is that it's always some guy that is doing it because, deep in the dark recesses of his mind, he thinks that white knighting will either directly or indirectly help him get pussy.

That's the real tragedy of white knighting. We know that it has nothing to do with it.

Can white knighting even exist without this impetus?

It's a classic with a lot of great scenes

To this day, this remains the #1 most influential movie among the hip hop community. And personally as far as gangster movies go it's right up there for me right after Godfather I + II, Goodfellas & Casino. Definitely a classic that didn't truly get recognized until well after its actual release date.

Good stuff

Speaking of Scarface, I see this scene being my reality in a year or two. (Sans the marriage)

Any time a gun comes up in a movie, I lose interest.

My reality has very little to do with guns as a bargaining point. Guns appeal to middle Americans who accept Jesus etc. and are flattered by action movies, romanticize the poor, etc..

Those beta guys live for the future. Players are for the right now.

Scarface is a very realistic movie. It is easily possible for a man to be both driven, aggressive and uncaring (Alpha), as well as white-knighting, short-sighted, impulsive and inflicted with Oneitis. Tony Montana is the perfect example. I had no sympathy when he complained about his wife being a junkie and unable to give him kids, for example. He knew very well about both facts before he asked her to marry him.

You kiddin me or what?

You never told a cool chick you dropped something under the car seat , knowing you've got a chrome desert eagle there.

She is urgent to help you find what you've claimed you lost because your a Stand Up guy.

When she picks up the gun, she scared, intrigued, wet and horny at the same time

Try it

I would actually say this is extremely strong "closing Game".

Maybe Tony could have lived if he took RSD

Hey G, do you own any silk or satin suits?

Stop being a judgmental hippy.

Not about being a hippy.

The second a gun hit's the screen, all the balance of power in the drama is weighted too heavily on whoever has got the gun. The rest of the movie just becomes about who has the bigger gun. That can be fun, but it gets tired after so many movies.

On a different note, I'd probably get oneitis for Michelle Pfiefer back then too. I'd gladly trade many of my notches to notch her.

No doubt this is a great movie but the basic premise is Money and Power gets you bitches, not necessarily game.

I met a biker once, we got into a conversation about women. He hit me with this classic line " when the coke ran out so did she".

Not a fan of Pacino's but this is his finest performance.

I was talking about who you said guns appeal to.

When I first started trying to learn game I often looked at this scene and tried to emulate Pachino's vibe a bit when talking to girls. I actually have said the line to a girl about how she had a look in her eye like she hadn't been fucked in a year, but I said 'fucked right'. I half expected her to call me on quoting the movie, but she looked off into the distance and considered it, and then looked back and me and said, "You know, you're probably right," I didn't end up banging her though.

The scene later in the movie where he does a bump and then aggressively goes in for the kiss was epic.

Not sure how many times I have to say this on here.

Money, Power, Looks, Your Mouth Piece, Your Stamina etc is all Game.

At least before the fuzzy hat and eyeliner crowd co-opted the word.
