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.

    • Scourton's interviews are telling to me that it's only a matter of time before he could really put it together.  His limitation tool-wise that I see is in his bend, but at the leaner size, it looks like it wasn't a problem at Purdue.   He has a good moveset and reads leverages very well (vet level well).  Plays both the speed/quickness (great change of direction) and has a power game with good hand usage.  Moves from what I've seen in my digs: I'm seeing cross-chop, fake crossers into bull, bull rush, spin (his preferred move of choice), hand shuck.  He's not unrefined by any means.   If he can do 2 things---I'm feeling confident from seeing his interviews that we have a real dude on our hands: 1) Diversifying his moveset/how it's deployed - Over-reliant on some, but again, he has a growing palette.  And is already great with his hands so things are in-place to coach up. 2) Developing a counter moveset and starting to play the chess game with an OT - He's very good at reading leverage, knowing when to change things up during a play.  But NFL coaching should start to teach him how to really create a plan based on an opponent.  What to throw at a guy first, how to confuse with fakes/counters, etc.  How to play against these tackles as a game progresses.   Overall, he has some things that give me serious optimism: Run Defense, speed moves, power moves, he's super young and has the size/length.  When you really spell it all out, I think we should get excited.  Temper expectations from a stat sheet standpoint, but he should be able to go in and make an impact.    
    • Scourton may not get double digit sacks, but he won't be a liability on every other down
