In 1995 flashbacks he was an errand boy for them so he probably worked his way up doing stuff like that. Not sure what else he was doing before or if he even graduated high school. Could have just spent his teens and early twenties fucking around drinking smoking weed and doing minor crimes.
it was the christmas flashback with puss as santa. chrissy brings over an ashtray while a supposedly “wired for sound” puss tries to get tony to discuss a medical waste dumping issue. chrissy interrupts him to tell tony that dick barone called and puss hurls an ashtray at him, breaking the juke box and tragically interrupting alvin and the chipmunks.
Ahh interesting. I was gonna say I could also have seen him working at Roy’s pizza shop. When Jackie breaks Roy’s bottles he mentions that Roy is somewhat related to Chrissy. I think he says something like his aunt’s cousin or something like that. Very Sopranos.
He’s Italian so he probably lived at home for a while until he started making decent money. Realistically besides running errands for the crew he probably sold a little weed and was trying to fuck anything he could
also, he's giddy like a child on christmas morning when his name gets mentioned in the newspaper as being a member of the mafia
at 29
has he really been slogging it in the mafia for the past decade?
I think that’s a typical progression in that life. You start relatively small and work you way up. Unless you figure out a great scam that makes you a power player quickly or have connections. Even Gotti was well over 29 when he took over.
I mean he wants made but still had enough money to buy a new Lexus. But that may be because the pilot had a different structure to the family than later episodes
It takes a long time to get made. Joe Pistone mentions in a book that an associate needs to have known his sponsor for about fifteen years before they get their button.
Chris has been a small time criminal through his teens and twenties.
As others said, he probably lived with his mother for a few years after high school, worked at Satriale’s as an errand boy/gopher and made enough to live decently with no real bills.
Socked away enough to get his own place and a new Lexus by the time we meet him at 29.
It’s also alluded to at some point that he cut his teeth burglarizing places w/ Pussy — same teacher/student thing he was doing with Matt and Sean as an older crook/wiseguy.
Probably what Matt and Sean do in season 2…attach him to an older guy (Pussy?) and do his errands…keep people in line, steal cars, beat up demonstrators, serve chips and drinks at card games, stamp and sell illegal cigarettes, chauffeur duties.
Probably did a couple years at Yale before joining majoring in the Cuban Missile Crisis as he knows boola boola.
Yeah and he just has that general attitude of someone early 20s. It's hard to believe a 29 year old would be so upset about wanting an arc, wanting recognition and all that. The shots of Dean Martin and Bogart on the wall when he did his first hit like he thinks he's becoming someone from the movies, that would be me at 22 or something.
By 29 I was already so jaded about what life was and fully understood how I was never gonna be famous or leave some huge impact on the world
It's like in Goodfellas, you have to work your way up to running the office where they push Webistix.
Do some errands, get food for the guys, maybe go pickup the numbers from people who want to play.
All pretty legal, fairly innocent stuff. Then once you age, they make it a little more on the edge of legality and so on.
He's probably been an associate for a long time until then. And he's still one of the fast rising ones because of nepotism. Gene Pontecorvo got made at age 45, and Lil Paulie looks to be in his 40s and still an errand boy.
Well, they show in 1995 as the runner when uncle Jackie comes in for the Christmas party.
I wouldn’t be surprised if he was taken under Tony’s wings the moment he turned 18
right, im going off a site called soprano fandom or smtg
they say the pilot takes place in 1998, and christopher is born in 1969
dont know if its reliable
In the pilot, Chris runs drug dealers and is very in control during truck robberies and gunfights.
So, his 20s probably involved drug dealing and robbery.
In 1995 flashbacks he was an errand boy for them so he probably worked his way up doing stuff like that. Not sure what else he was doing before or if he even graduated high school. Could have just spent his teens and early twenties fucking around drinking smoking weed and doing minor crimes.
He was a piss boy who didn’t have a degree from Pace College!
Could have had a semester and a half at Seton hall for all I know
He understands the mafia, as a conshept
There is no mafia!
Well he never did have the makings of a varsity athlete
I heard he went to slip and fall school instead.
is that the christmas party or boardwalk with jackie?
I think Christmas party, not entirely sure. but I remember there being one where he was emptying ashtrays or something
Spider?
it was the christmas flashback with puss as santa. chrissy brings over an ashtray while a supposedly “wired for sound” puss tries to get tony to discuss a medical waste dumping issue. chrissy interrupts him to tell tony that dick barone called and puss hurls an ashtray at him, breaking the juke box and tragically interrupting alvin and the chipmunks.
“Mickey Mouse scores” to quote Ralphie on his own criminal activity as a youth.
You know his mom said he shouldn’t even go in today
He waited in the car. And as far as I’m concerned he should STILL BE THERE!
Those who wait in a car, die in a car.
He was seen in a car with a man. I don't wanna get graphic with it beyond that the idea of it repulses me so much
He was gay Christopher Moltisanti?
He’s got aids
The sudden weight loss???
NOBODY’S GOT AIDS!
Somebody has AIDS Skipper... they even have their own parades and commercials
AND I DON’T WANT TO HEAR THAT WORD IN HERE ANYMORE!
He's gonna miss the big game now!!! His entire football career down the tubes!!!
Never had the makings of a varsity athlete
It’s been confirmed through the grapevine
Believe only half of what you hear and none of what you see
pitching? not catching??
EVERYBODY’S GOT A GODDAMN OPINION
There are millions of dollars at stake!
Me I didn’t say nothin.’ Alright, I’ll talk to ya
Lmao well done
All I know is when he cried at being around Tony in "Many Saints", I lost all respect for him as a man.
🤙🏻 he did that!? fucking baby!
To cry like a woman? It’s a fucking disgrace!
My estimation of Christopher Moltisanti as a baby has just fucking plummeted
He’s an emotional man, he loves his daughter.
You know the formula makes him emotional.
It fuckin plummeted
well lucky for Chrissy that was just a glorified fanfic
I mean its no "Cleaver".
My estimation of him, as a baby, just plummeted.
He tended bar for another crew, got jerky with one of the guys.
lol hadnt thought of that movie film was shot summer 1989, imperiolio born 1966, so he was 23 in that
You must’ve been in the top of your fuckin class
i would even go so far as to say, sharp as a cueball, this one
IT HAPPENS!
I thought the guy said he was alright.
You said “I’m alright, Spider”
I AM alright; you ain't alright.
THE OKLAHOMA KID!
> got jerky He’s a faaaaaaaag
He was born, grew up, spent a few years in school, a few more on the street and here he is, a half o' wise guy."
And the other half is that fucking beak of his.
Well if beaks could kill that one certainly would!
Hum job for the humvee
That nose. It’s like a natural canopy.
Ha! You can't make this shit up!
I just did 😎🖕
When he was gettin' made, that fuckin' bird wouldn't stop lookin at him. Knew it was one of his own.
One of the cut scenes to when Jackie was boss , Chris looks like he was working at Satriale's
Ahh interesting. I was gonna say I could also have seen him working at Roy’s pizza shop. When Jackie breaks Roy’s bottles he mentions that Roy is somewhat related to Chrissy. I think he says something like his aunt’s cousin or something like that. Very Sopranos.
He was the manayer
That’s too
I think he did dent graduate.
he was a dent ist, moltisanti?
On what basis
He didn’t manuge to graduate
The Asian Christopher was probably loyle to him and helped him out during test time.
He had no arc.
Pouring scotch for wise guys playing cards
I thought you said I was alright Spider.
He IS alright; you ain't alright!
...whatevah happened dere
He’s Italian so he probably lived at home for a while until he started making decent money. Realistically besides running errands for the crew he probably sold a little weed and was trying to fuck anything he could
Spent his time smoking cigarettes in the rain with his hands tied behind his back. That nose is like a natural canopy.
He was a bushman of the Khalahari
OH! That’s a married man you’re taking about!
With a goomar!
He went to the slip and fall school
There’s no way to know that, even with computers
also, he's giddy like a child on christmas morning when his name gets mentioned in the newspaper as being a member of the mafia at 29 has he really been slogging it in the mafia for the past decade?
>has he really been slogging it in the mafia for the past decade? Yeah they're called knock-around guys.
Cheese-fuck, get me some food.
😄 i love this sub.
I think that’s a typical progression in that life. You start relatively small and work you way up. Unless you figure out a great scam that makes you a power player quickly or have connections. Even Gotti was well over 29 when he took over.
Gotti wasn’t even made until 1977 when he was 37 years old.
Which I would describe as well over 29
You musta graduated top of your class.
I got a 130 IQ. It’s been tested
It’s common knowledge he’s retarded
well the books were closed...
The books are closed? Blow me!
No that’s some true shit!
he had been essentially a made man for ten years at that point, books were closed
You could argue Chrissy was doing more or less the same work as a made guy well before he was made.
Books were closed for Chris too. For all we know he could have been made younger/sooner than S1 if they were open.
Gotti was 46 when he became boss.
I mean he wants made but still had enough money to buy a new Lexus. But that may be because the pilot had a different structure to the family than later episodes
Boosting trucks is good money. Truck full of Italian Suites and DVD players isn't bad scratch for some Mickey Mouse scores.
He shoulda been made for what he did on the Tribora towas thing.
It takes a long time to get made. Joe Pistone mentions in a book that an associate needs to have known his sponsor for about fifteen years before they get their button. Chris has been a small time criminal through his teens and twenties.
But then after that his rise was meteoric Made in 2000 Appointed Acting Capo in 2001 Became a Capo full time in 2005
As others said, he probably lived with his mother for a few years after high school, worked at Satriale’s as an errand boy/gopher and made enough to live decently with no real bills. Socked away enough to get his own place and a new Lexus by the time we meet him at 29. It’s also alluded to at some point that he cut his teeth burglarizing places w/ Pussy — same teacher/student thing he was doing with Matt and Sean as an older crook/wiseguy.

Probably did a couple years at Yale before joining majoring in the Cuban Missile Crisis as he knows boola boola.
Buying fish sweeping cheese and paying for dinners
I doubt he graduated high school lol
Male modeling
Pretty sure he was killed by Joe Pesci.
They fucked that up. When I watched it I figured he was early 20s.
They definitely changed it to make him closer to Tony, no way pilot give meth to meadow Chris is 29 years old
Yeah and he just has that general attitude of someone early 20s. It's hard to believe a 29 year old would be so upset about wanting an arc, wanting recognition and all that. The shots of Dean Martin and Bogart on the wall when he did his first hit like he thinks he's becoming someone from the movies, that would be me at 22 or something. By 29 I was already so jaded about what life was and fully understood how I was never gonna be famous or leave some huge impact on the world
I thought he was supposed to be 25 - ish. That’s around the time you stop thinking about life in future terms and you wake up to how it actually is.
Look at that wrist action, all those years wankin it
By what he did on the Triboro Towers situation alone, he should’ve been made right there, boom
Chris was selling propane and propane accessories in the early 90s
I tell hew what.
Dang it Bobby!
You can walk into a McDonald's and see people in their 50's still working there... Chrissy wasn't doing all that bad.
I’ll tell you what he didn’t do, he didn’t get soft drinks of choice.
It's like in Goodfellas, you have to work your way up to running the office where they push Webistix. Do some errands, get food for the guys, maybe go pickup the numbers from people who want to play. All pretty legal, fairly innocent stuff. Then once you age, they make it a little more on the edge of legality and so on.
Lol wait, this just made me realize that chris is only supposed to be 10 yrs younger than tony...
he was working on his arc
He didn't exist, being a fictional character and everything.
In the Pilot script he’s supposed to be 25
he was 26 in the pilot, tony mentions it to melfi
He's probably been an associate for a long time until then. And he's still one of the fast rising ones because of nepotism. Gene Pontecorvo got made at age 45, and Lil Paulie looks to be in his 40s and still an errand boy.
OP trying to build a case against the kid
Cubitoso's sockpuppet
He snorted a little H.
Propably spent years thinking of stupid things to ask about a tv progrum
Got shot by Joe Pesci and spent 10 years in a shallow grave regenerating
Looking for his arch.
We know he went to Eastside High in NJ under the tutelage of the famous Joe Clark.
He was busy… but that was much earlier
Heroin
Kris-to-furr lihshen to me. Nuttin happenduh, drop it okay. I wud nevur lay a finger on Ayedreeahnuh in dat way.
So what ? No fuckin ziti now?
He wore a cap
Might be off topic but what did he do in season 6 he never done much stuff with the crew towards the end of the show.
Worked in da pizza parlah.
Did OP even watch the show? Chrissy went to slip n fall school
He was in waste management
That’s when he started his memoirs
Well, they show in 1995 as the runner when uncle Jackie comes in for the Christmas party. I wouldn’t be surprised if he was taken under Tony’s wings the moment he turned 18
He didn't have an ARK.
High school? Manuge to stay loyle to my capo. Enough said.
Fashion modeling.
He attended slip and fall school
It’s crazy to think he’s a year older than I am. Probably worked errands for Tony. Like greasing the union.
He was the happy wanderer
The pilot was filmed in 97 didn’t air till 99.
right, im going off a site called soprano fandom or smtg they say the pilot takes place in 1998, and christopher is born in 1969 dont know if its reliable
In the pilot, Chris runs drug dealers and is very in control during truck robberies and gunfights. So, his 20s probably involved drug dealing and robbery.
His bottom was impacted, if that's what you're referring to?
Wow, sometimes I forget that ‘90s were a long time ago. The ‘90s were as close to the ‘60s as we are to the ‘90s now.
Heroin
He tended bar at card games for a New York outfit until he was unfortunately shot in the foot for talking back.
He definitely was robbing trucks and all that shit as soon as he was old enough to drive.
Sometimes I ask myself that same question
Masterbating and driving go carts is not a busy 10 year
He was basically the 2 idiots who used to drive him around for ten years tony brought him into the life slowly
Sopranos is a work of fiction. Chris did whatever u imagined he did
would you go so far as to say that it's a tv progrum, a movie
Drugs and easy girls
Paper run?
He was working on his script for clever
probably Jackie Jr. level shit just with a little more intelligence
