The attack was on the house in Nevada. It took place in part two.

That was nice, too.

You are right, I got my movies mixed up. Surprised you didn’t get the Annie Hall reference. lol

Good point, the new owner might want want to serve the public by turning it into a Bed and Breakfast.

The AC wall unit sticking out of that second story window looks really cheesy on that mansion. You would think they’d throw in some central air for your $2.89 million.

That's where the mattresses are.

That’s good.

Who wants to spend time mowing the lawn?

I don’t see how much the taxes are. I would think at least 40K? When I see this house all I can think of is that day crying screaming kid.

Okay MLB/Godfather fans....a little trivia/blooper: When Sonny was shot to pieces at the toll booth, he had an MLB game’s broadcast playing on his car’s radio. What was the game being broadcast that he was listening to? Why is it considered a ‘Blooper’ that he had that game on his radio?

They had to clean up the property by removing all the bodies buried around the yard and in the basement.

I think the walls in the movie were temporary, looks like they made it look like a compound.

You can clearly make out the hose though...

Okay, okay....I know it is not that tough but it’s all I got on short notice combining MLB and The Godfather!!!

Sonny’s death to Wednesday, October 3, 1951 due to the radio broadcast he is listening to. Indeed, Sonny is clearly listening to WMCA broadcaster Russ Hodges calling the Dodgers-Giants playoff game played that day, a half-inning before Giants outfielder Bobby Thomson hit the infamous “shot heard ’round the world” that helped win the National League pennant for the Giants. However, context clues show that Sonny died no later than 1948 and very possibly the year before. This means that Sonny is listening to a radio broadcast of a game three or four years later. While some can possibly call this an atmospheric anomaly, it is simply the case of filmmakers choosing an era-appropriate baseball game for a background radio. None of the filmmakers could have imagined that:

Interesting stuff. Thanks.

This house was up for sale just a few years ago (2010). I posted a thread on it then...

Welcome

Correct ‘cat! Those professional filmmakers should have known tho, That was my/a point, in a way. (Late 1947 or early 1948 is quite a stretch from 10/03/54.) The movie ‘The Godfather’ is LOADED with ‘continuity’ and ‘period’ type errors, which bug my old butt no end! It is still one of my top 10 movies tho!!

[GeronL]

looked so much bigger in the movie

I didn't know that.

But on the Sopranos, Uncle Junior says, "Joey Pepitone! Three RBIs!"
