SNOWFALL FX discussion thread

[55th View]

She still remembers Pops as a junkie. She ain't giving up the good life for him. She definitely set Alton up!

Nigga...I thought I was the only one who noticed that. Gave him a little something to think of before he met his maker.


She didn't want Franklin to know. The way Franklin was crying, no way he knew she would be right back.


YUP!

On another note...what was the symbolism of Franklin leaving his cane behind?

Agreed, moms set Alton up proper. She held resentment over him outing Franklin and chose her son over him.

As for the cane, to me it represented that he was going all in, stronger than ever now. He wanted ol' girl to know he wasn't down and anything else would result in her demise. If you pumped 5 in someone's back and they did that, wouldn't you just let it rest too?

If true, Cissy going through such a convoluted plan just to knock off Alton is straight out of a Bond movie.

that may not have been her original plan. i don't know. i just see a twist coming and am trying to predict it. but we will see next season.

I'm re-looking at this season. Alton & Missy are playing Monopoly together in the 1st episode ...Alton says of Cissy "Never get in the way of an aspiring real estate mogul".

And there it is...

A few observations:

1. What was the point of Monk ( from the wire) character. He just abandoned Saint mid season...what a waste.

2. They should not of killed off Man Boy and his sister one or the other they were great villains imo.

3. Now that Jerome and Louie are doing their own thang is little rock all theirs?

4. Why the fuck do Franklin keep letting these women live ...T the hit women, and Mel... come on dawg.

5. Reed probably won't make it out of episodes 1 of next season.

 

[ThaBurgerPimp]

For everybody saying pops ain't dead. Why would Reed pull up on him if he wasn't gonna kill him?

Maybe when Cissy comes back(thinking nothing's happened) and sees Alton slumped over the table with a bullethole you can see through in the back of his head ..this happens in the cold open of the season premiere

 

[Complex]

I thought Franklin was going to drop some crack on the table not his cane

 

[keone]

alton is either dead or will join the cia
his woman didnt set him up reed is cia he can find anyone

 

[madgoose]

On another note...what was the symbolism of Franklin leaving his cane behind?

That he was fit and well and had been for a while. He'd been frontin' on them all. That and by dropping the move on Mel was to let her know to watch out he was over it, the emotions and the injury.

alton is either dead or will join the cia
his woman didnt set him up reed is cia he can find anyone

Reed, Reed, Reed!???

Come on, was you all asleep when they boarded the plane? Reed was right there beside Franklin in the shot before the plane took off and the opening line of the scene,

WAS...

"The plane lands in Havana after refuelling in Mexico City"

and if he was not within earshot he knew what time the plane took off so he just goes to the Tower and flashes his credentials and asks for the flight plans of "Flight fuck ya Daddy!

Next shot is with Gustavo opening line...

"I'm going a way for a bit."

Some of you must be buying that weed laced with Fentanyl and ain't making to the end off the show before nodding off! (Not you though @keone I know your Mum would beat you to next week if she caught you with even a lighter!)

 

[madgoose]

reed is cia he can find anyone

Yo, fanboy, your getting him confused with Mr. Troop!

Mr Troop could find anyone on the planet in ten minutes flat.

Reed is gonna be that rogue cia agent.....on his jason bourne missions and shit.
That one nigga from Little Rock gonna smoke up all the crack and become a liability.

Louie and Jerome will eventually see that they cant do the shit without Franklin

[RUDY RAYYY MO]

I guess they figure since Manboy and his soldiers are dead and they've smoothed things over with Skully, they can operate with no fear now.

Speaking uf Manboy, it was stupid for him not to send one of his soldiers to meet up with the snitch chick. To me that was lazy writing

 

[RUDY RAYYY MO]

Never knew she was supposed to play Louie

'Snowfall': Lauren London Turned Down Her Dream Role in the TV Show

Snowfall is the brainchild of the late director, John Singleton and he chose Lauren London for a major role, but she had to turn it down.

www.cheatsheet.com

[Leatherf7ce]

I thought this show was cool for two seasons
Seemed to me it kinda jumped the shark but mafuckas LOVE it. Think I'm tired of shit about moving coke, watched my fill. Some of us was there. Shit seem watered down and disrespectful to Gary Webb wild white ass and all the niggas that got fucked behind the game. Just my two cents. The Wire was fiction so grounded in reality that it could transport anyone to the corner. Snowfall is just a lurid portrayal of freeway Rick that can't keep it shit straight
Seeing bitches on Twitter pulling for cia dude like what the fuck is happening?

 

[YoungSinister]

ETA. Why would Cissy wait until they got to Cuba to set-up Alton? She could have just not shown up at the meet and let Reed kill him there.

Some of these cats critical thinking skills are....

Somebody pages back alleged she set up the meeting between CIA & hubby. Not realizing Alton took the boy pager to do just that lol smh

Good point

 

[D24OHA]

That "let me put cane down to show I'm at full strength and walk off into the sunlight" was straight dookie!

Some ole 90's movie twist ending type shit.....FOH

Franklin bout to be the next Ghost......smh

Time stamp?....

 

[chitownsfinest]

I'm re-looking at this season. Alton & Missy are playing Monopoly together in the 1st episode ...Alton says of Cissy "Never get in the way of an aspiring real estate mogul".

And there it is...

Still re-watching the season. I missed a ton the first time.

-There will definitely expand on Little Rock next year. The characters they're introducing are too good and like-able

-All Sissy cares about is being a legit real estate developer

-Scully's baby momma should have caught a charge having her in the middle of a shootout

-Wanda is kinda fine when she ain't playing a crackhead. Them lips...

Will add more later...

 

[ron2k7]

GREAT SEASON OF SNOWFALL!!

 

[Duece]

4. Why the fuck do Franklin keep letting these women live ...T the hit women, and Mel... come on dawg.

This.

All the stories I've heard about those west coast niggas, is that they deal with females who cross them in the most brutal of ways.

And I thought it was all over.


I guess this will be the season without any input from John Singleton at all. Looks like they are going full ghetto Scarface fabulous with this one.

 

[HotNixon36]

Last season was good, I hope this one is much better.
