It's a childish hobby meant to reflect Bobby's emotional immaturity despite wanting to have more responsibility.

live by the train die by the train

lol I think you're reading a little to much into that.
Benjamin Evans
Yea I don't really think so..
How would that reflect his rise to rank and abilities to help Tony in the later half of 6B? It wouldn't.

Is this Harpo?
I heard someone post about it being a possibility and another saying it's not possible for some reason.
Gabriel Young
God, that was such a dick move by Tony. Like what was he trying to do there?
Leo Perez
he probably wanted to dress up like godzilla and smash the trains and stuff
Aiden Collins
It was just banter.
Blake Torres
I need more sopranos tier books
Elijah Torres
Because trains are love. Trains are life.
Why don't you have a train hobby?
Kayden Hall
Hold Bobby underneath him in his delusional Sopranos family nature, for one.

not really, the whole series bobby was always seen as more childish than the other mobsters
>never killed anyone
>got made because of his father
>was juniors driver for many years
>spared by Tony because he wasn't a threat
>constantly crying about his dead wife
Cameron Flores
>not killing anyone is childish
Christopher Garcia
None of that is childish, homes.
If anything, The Sopranos is a great show for demonstrating how in the right Bobby is for most of it.
Sopranos Home Movies in particular uses Bobby as a sort of final clue-in mirror to the audience saying "Hey, Tony is a real fucking prick and you shouldn't be rooting for him blindly."

You mean, at her fucking funeral? You need to rewatch the show buddy, I think a lot of things flew over your head

Notice they don't show Bobby playing with trains after the episode he gets robbed by the black kids? He tries to get Bobby Jr. to play with him but his son tells Bobby to fuck off in so many words. The trains are no longer in the show from that point until literally the scene where Bobby dies.
Jonathan Wright
Autism. It's well known that people with ASD are obsessed with trains.
Adrian Watson
Which doesn't really go with what you're saying, otherwise he wouldn't be buying trains for himself at the end.
The guy at the counter said something about how his son will really enjoy the Blue Comet and Bobby says "he doesn't care".
Nathan Jones
I got your sopranos-core books right here, famiglia.

Mason Jones
he didn't buy trains so good

What do you mean it doesn't go with what I'm saying? Bobby wants more responsibility and respect. Tony doesn't respect Bobby and thinks he's soft. Seeing Bobby playing with the trains on more than one occasion gives credibility to Tony's opinion. HOWEVER when 6A starts to wrap up, Christopher is seen as more and more of a problem, so Tony starts to bring in Bobby closer at the start of 6B while pushing Christopher away. It can be assumed that Bobby had significantly less time for his model trains because of the new jobs he had to take on. His trip to the hobby shop in "The Blue Comet" was obviously a special occasion and it cost him dearly.
And Bobby says "He won't give a shit" you fucking prole.
Luke Smith
man, Sopranos Home Movies is such an amazing episode. might be my favorite of the whole series
Parker Morgan
>And Bobby says "He won't give a shit" you fucking prole
? Not that guy but he specifically said "He don't care"
Gabriel Gomez
I think you're reading way to much into Bobby's death. I think Blue Comet has to have some meaning as to why the episode is named Blue Comet and Bobby gets gunned down on the train tracks, but I hardly think it's an intentional "he shouldn't have played with trains" motif or some shit..
I hardly think that's what it's meant to reflect. You seem to view this show from Tony's perspective being the ultimate perspective of narrative.
Also, see
fucking half a fag.

>You seem to view this show from Tony's perspective being the ultimate perspective of narrative.
well the opening title is literally Tony driving the viewer into his world so excuse me for having that perspective.
Tyler Parker
That's a pleb perspective, rooting for the anti-villain by season 6.
View the show more objectively why don't ya?
