The Wire (Revisted)

[R.D.]

respectfully speaking, the 'its to be viewed as a prequal' angle is rather preposterous. Even if David Simon said it (after the fact btw, i dont think he created the show w/ that in mind)

I think we can leave it as 'see: the cycle continues' as far as Dookie becoming similar to Bubbles, Mike becoming similar to a straight Omar, etc.

Its lazy and a disservice to the character arcs of so many to just say 'its a prequal' on some mind bending second world type shyt. Nah, thas not what the Wire is about.

Bc there are no parallels fore some great characters: who from the OG crew is like Naymond? Who from the OG crew is like Randy!?!?! You cant pidgeon-whole Rnady! His story needs to stand alone. The Wire is what it is bc of it's specificity, so just saYing any of the lil dudes' stories can be intertwined with the older character's childhoods would go against everything the show is about.

Namond- Clay Davis

Randy- Wallace

Man fuck that would y'all like to see how these characters came to be or not?

Young Omar before he discovered boy pussy, boxing Avon using his fam to start to rise to power, prop Joe before he had to get cut out the walls of his apartment, etc ...

Absolutely

Young String and Avon

 

[Anti_matter]

They already have short prequels for Omar and Prop Joe

Random, but I think it was season 4, when Chris and Snoop was hunting them NY niggas and they walk up to that one dude in the alley and chris was like "Shake it or jiggle it yo... Who made that track" That shit makes me laugh out loud every time. The way he said shake it and jiggle it to some grown as man was awkward and funny as fuck to me. NH.

I would have been killed if they asked me that

Kennard was a disturbed kid in a shitty neighborhood that never got help. Nobody ever told him right from wrong, and just the way he was gonna start that cat on fire in a huge sign of mental illness.

No show has changed my perspective and world view like The Wire. I def think it has made me a more empathetic person.

If more white people saw this show america would be a different place

^^

I think most white people are fans of The Wire If they've seen it

Fuck getting approval from white people..

Marlo didnt run up on them. Just random stick up kids who aitn know who he was and they tried to rob him and he fended them off and i think took their gun.

Imo kinda alluding to the fact that the streets continue to move on and no one is immune, and how quickly legends are forgotten. The tatsing of the blood was kinda like 'yea, i love this shyt', maybe hinting at the viewers that he aitn gon be able to sit still/be out the game forever bc he love the shyt

Also i thought it was kinda poetic bc throughout him doin all that dirt and bein a boss he never got a scratch, never got shot, nothin (to the dismay of some watchers who were loyal to the Avon/Stringer era like myself-them nggas got shot at, fightin each other, etc). But the day he supposed to be gettin out and he suited n booted is when he finally sees his own blood. Kinda like when a boxer sees his own blood its a sign of his own mortality. Like when Floyd got a bloody nose Jim Lmapley damn near shyt his pants. 'And something we've never seen before folks...the great Floyd Mayweather is bleeding' lol

Thats just my take

since this is fresh in my mind, this nigga Marlo walked across the street to their corner and butted into they convo and said "fuck you looking at?"

Nigga said "you nigga!"

Then Marlo was like do you know who I am? And then blah blah they tried to pull the hammer out then Marlo got cut but knocked the gun out his hands and then did the blood shit.

I do agree with what you said bout the blood thing though. Maybe Marlo wanted to test Niggas in the streets after finding out Omar kept callin him a bitch in the streets

At the end Marlo aint get no street glory,

people in the streets barely knew who he was..

Its ironic because his team snatched the most lives,

went to war with Avon and Omar,

and took over the whole dope game..

You looking at it wrong. In a lot instances young niggas like them dudes on that corner know of people like Marlo by name not by face cause they not on his team, in his age bracket or from the same hood.

Look at how far insulated from the corners Marlo, Avon and Stringer was. When they pulled up in the hood or corners everybody knew it was them but only 1-2 people would ever walk up on the car and speak to them.

If Marlo would have asked them young boys if they knew who "Marlo"(by name) was I bet they would answered that they heard of him and his crew.

Hell even Avon had never seen Marlo before and they was beefing heavy.

That's why Marlo was so adamant about his name being respected. At the end of the day though he never rehabilitated it. He left the game as that dude Omar was calling out who never answered the call.

Exactly and Marlo was also mad cause he knew it didn't matter the rep of the person saying his name the fact that his name was being said on some shit like he was sucka had to be addressed.

Marlo did tell them to get the word out that it was money on Omar head and that young nigga left Omar brains on that store floor.

Marlo played the game how it was supposed to be played. He was willing to put it all on the line no matter what.

Marlo was a millionaire who was most comfortable amongst the poorest of people. I don't know any millionaires but I do know people who could buy a big house in a good neighborhood but never plan on moving out of the poor neighborhood they grew up in. Even if Marlo left the game he would still want to be around that environment.

People get accustomed to certain environments. I understand it cause its hard leave behind friends who was your friends when 5 of yall could be together as kids and not have $1 between yall but all yall willing to do damn near anything for each other.

Then when you get some money people like you should leave them alone and hang out with people who only want you around because you have money now. Shit like that don't make sense to me.

[goodlookinout]

Nothing fuckin wit the wire PERIOD!!!!!

 

[2stepz_ahead]

ok.....this should be the last i speak of this.....until i speak about it again.

Avon was and still the king.

thinking about marlo, he needed avon to get to the connect. once he got popped he sold his connect but will need muscle to get it back from the east side niggas. if he aint got people who promote fear like snoop and chris...he aint shit. Marlo wasnt even know at the end by street niggas. so without snoop and chris...his days are numbered.

avon still can stop the coke connect toall Baltimore from prison because of the respect the greeks have for him. he can starve out the east side dudes and make them come to him for the package. Avons name still rings in the streets and jail. plus he still has his muscle connect to NY. all off of playing the game right and respecting the game.
