Boardwalk Empire: How Does This Season End Sunday?


Anybodyhome

Recommended Posts

This season has been good but not as good as the previous ones.  The Narcisse storyline is ok but is really kind of boring, and as much as I wanted more Chalky in the past, it's obvious he should have stuck to being a side character here and there.  He's had too much screen time and the Daughter storyline is also very boring.

 

I think it's possible Nucky goes to Richard for a secret mission, not sure.  I think Eli gets busted and his son kills him.  Somehow Eli's son takes someone out and fortifies his position in Nucky's crew going forward.  

 

I think Capone and Van Alden take out Capone's boss as I'm pretty sure he was responsible for the hit and machine gun fire that happens.   This will push Capone into power.  I think it's possible Rothstein gets killed over gambling debts or something and Luciano takes over.  In real life Luciano becomes the most powerful Mafia boss of all time, ever so I wouldn't be surprised.  Maybe they'll wait till next season for Rothstein's fall, not sure.  

 

I still love the show, amazing characters, amazing period piece with all the props and whatnot.   All I know is, people will die I'm sure lol.

Not sure but I hope they spend less time next season on this guy.

Richard is just plain ruthless, although he softened somewhat when he began taking care of the kid. But there is a reason  he went back to work for Nucky Thompson.

 

Johnny Torrio, in reality, survived an assassination attempt by the Northside gang, which included Bugs Moran and Hymie Weiss, and moved back to Italy for several years. He supposedly turned everything over to Al Capone... we'll see how that hold up.

 

Eli's son may very well kill the Fed when Eli either comes clean to his son or his son figures it out.

    • Yeah and I am doubtful he can offer that consistently. I don’t have many years left at my age and in my view we have wasted two and this whole exercise with him was always a three year minimum.  I am out on that with a guy I don’t believe in, and never believed in, it has sucked. To me it is a costly detour off the right track. Years.    But I am not so rigid that I can’t see excellence. He needs to display it though, consistently before I change my outlook.  
    • No, when I said rage, I meant rage, which only applies to certain fans on this board. Your timeline of trying to assess whether he is the future or not is really tied to the discussions surrounding his second contract. If this team is going to commit to some monster contract while he has shown nothing but glimpses of brilliance would be deservedly worrisome, so the clock is genuinely ticking for him to settle into something resembling his final form. Perhaps a best case scenario is that he plays well, the team succeeds, but he does so with a more limited role that makes the rest of the league view him as a game manager, and his second contract value reflects that. Then he continues to improve and becomes a bargain comparatively while not handicapping the team around him, and we enter an era of consistent championship competitiveness that the fanbase has craved for decades and has never really experienced before. But that requires many, many things to go right and for Bryce himself to facilitate that if he ends up being the quarterback of the future.
    • Exactly. And the flame throwers as well, get location benefits from not going all out. But they have it in reserve.  Not sure how much Greg had but he was an artist.  There was a YouTube I came across last year or maybe even 2023 and I don’t how to even find now but it had two NFL QBs I want say one was Carr from the Raiders but I don’t really remember  The point of it is they stood side by side throwing identical distances to identical targets. Radar gun was used.  They threw the normal effort (not all out) and it was measured etc. Then they were asked to throw their ‘fastball’. They were missing and most often they were missing high. It demonstrated the same principle.    edit: and applying that to arm strength, give me the guy that doesn’t need max effort to have good velocity. The margins are so narrow with less velocity in tne NFL the defenders can Close on it and this is a league where they value down to the 100th of a second level. It is that tight
