What The Godfather tried to warn YOU...

Who is the "REAL" Godfather? If You were a "Mob Boss", Who would you currently be? 💭
Who would win if in some alternate reality Vito and Michael were to go head to head? 🔥🥊

Vito and Michael Corleone, are both the personification of power, wealth and intelligence. 2 of the MOST iconic characters in film history, brilliantly played by 2 of the greatest actors of all time, Marlon Brando and Al Pacino. These characters are the epitome of what having an extraordinary amount of power actually looks like 👑
But the question always comes up, who was a better don? Both excelled at gaining power and expanding their empire and sphere of influence. Both ended up learning how to pull the strings of power to their favor ⚖️
So, it really is a difficult question to answer subjectively, unless you have a clear bias towards either one, you certainly can make an argument for both of them from a first glance. That’s why in this video we will be extensively analysing Don Vito and Michael, comparing them through some key categories that by the end gives us a superior and more logical answer to this question, to who was the "Better" Godfather 💎

So who is Vito Corleone? Don Vito Corleone was the founder and the patriarch of the Corleone crime family. Vito came to America as an orphan and slowly clawed his way up to be one of the most powerful and revered individuals of his time and even beyond. Vito’s big break came after the “olive oil war”. Where he ruthlessly dethroned the previous boss of bosses, by cunningly getting his very own caporegimes Emilio Barzini and Frankie Five Angels to betray their don. The classic, “divide et impera”. Through his intelligence, wit and cunning he was able to reach the heights of power and wealth and pass down his legacy to his son. Vito was the epitome of what a powerful leader is, he is the representation of what and how men of extreme power are able to strive and pull the strings of influence. But what differentiated Vito from other powerful individuals, is that he had a very strict code of honour that he would never break, he set limits to how far he would go depending on the scenario. As Machiavelli would have put it, he was both feared and loved.

Who was Michael Corleone? The youngest son of the don, Michael Corleone had always tried to stay away from his fathers shadow and wanted nothing to do with the family business. Michael was very intelligent, he inherited most of Vito’s strengths, and with his education and military experience, he really was on par and some would argue, an even better don than his father. Michael started off as a very moral man, always looking down upon what his family was involved in, however, after the series of events we see in the films, Michael begins to understand his father’s philosophy, and begins to transform into becoming just as ruthless as Vito, sometimes even going past what Vito deemed to be too far. But as a Don, Michael almost made every right move possible, allowing him to carry the family and ensuring its survival. After conducting this analysis, and really trying to look at this not just from our own bias, but from the lens of individuals far more wise than us.

In the end we have finally come to a solid conclusion. A definitive answer that has never been truly answered with the depth we just went through.

Who Do YOU Think is the "REAL" Godfather? 🌹💭

[Saddonghussein]

It's Vito, because Michael had help by his dad, Vito had it to learn by try and error

[bluevioletandlilac]

I shouldn't be spewing this out before watching the video, but in my own opinion Vito excelled at his conception of what an "old world" mafia boss should be. Family and friends oriented, listening to the little people in the neighborhood, having moral lines he won't cross. Michael, on the other hand, is new world. Cutthroat, somewhat cartel-like, anything for the sake of expanding his business and power even at the cost of family and friends. They're stark opposites to each other.

[or]

No question for me, it is Vito Corleone. He gave earned respect. This is why he had such loyalty. He was the one who mentored Michael into the business.

[veronikabelina]

I don’t think Vito would ever have his own brother killed

[ANTHONY]

Vito was witty and compassionate. Michael was smart and vicious

[antoniovasquez]

During Vito’s life in the mob he lost a son.

During Michael’s life in the mob he lost a brother, a wife and a daughter.

[brIOcto]

Me and mom had a conversation about who we thought was more ruthless between Vito and Michael. I agree that Michael was more ruthless than Vito because Michael killed within his own family, Vito did not. Vito held his family higher than power because he witnessed the decline of his family as a child. Thus once arriving in America, Vito made sure he furthered his family bloodline.

[daredevil]

But Vito had to eliminate just 1 don in power to gain control

Michael had to do that when 5 Families were around, and Courtroom Drama and all that. Just have to keep that in mind as well

[linw]

Vito. He knew how to keep peace with power while being fair. I give Mike a close second b/c he was a war time Don.❤

[utb]

The fact that Vito raised Michael to arguably be better than him is a great achievement. One that Michael could not match. Vito is the best.

[DonRamiro]

This is my favorite channel, down to the narrator’s voice. It’s kind of like a lighter version of Don Vito’s voice.

[KhadijahJoySams]

Happy Birthday Tomorrow to Don Vito Corleone. Thanks for the video

[princesmith]

From what I can see, most of the people who are choosing Vito over Michael are doing so based on personal feelings and likeability of the character.

Michael was far more cunning, ruthless and ambitious. He was thrown into the trenches out of nowhere, thrown to the lions and he adapted perfectly. He stayed at the top and took the empire to unimaginable heights.

Vito had more wisdom and built everything from scratch (even though Clemenza showed him the ropes). People loved him and he was a far better family man.

In terms of business however, Michael was an objectively better don than Vito.

In this video we will finally answer this heavily contested question, a question that has and will continue to spark heated debates 🔥

[Blackcat]

Both excellent Godfathers for their generation, the old and the young, you can't compare them.

[lifeisshort.]

This is the WrestleMania that we've all wanted, but never got xD

[martinlawrence]

Michael was fortunate to have the counseling of Vito. Vito learned everything by trial and error

[TheCultureMafia]

Welcome 🌹

Michael and Vito Corleone are the epitome of what having an extraordinary amount of power actually looks like.

But the question always comes up, who was a better don? Who is the “true Godfather”?

And it really is a difficult question to answer subjectively, because unless you have a clear bias towards either one, you certainly can make an argument for both of them at a first glance.

That’s why in this video we will finally answer this heavily contested question.

We’ve tailored it to our specific mission. To find out who is the “true godfather”.

We’ll also be keeping score

Feel free to score them alongside us.
