James Gandolfini was caught on video attacking a paparazzo Halloween night. The guy was a fair distance away which a.) didn’t warrant the assault, but b.) enabled him to capture Tony Soprano charging like a goddamn bull. Undoubtedly the most terrifying image I’ve seen in my life. This might have happened six days ago to someone else hundreds of miles away, but I’m man enough to admit I slumped into the fetal position and tried to shit myself into a coma. Think of it it as sort of a natural defense mechanism to ward off predators, and get me permanently banned from Starbucks.

Soprano’s was the best show of all time – this guy can do whatever he wants
James | November 6, 2009 at 4:36 pm
What a fucking pussy. Gandolfini fat fuck should be grateful someone shows interest. Any kid would beat his ass to a pulp for what he did. Props to the videographer for not punching fat fucks lights out.

#3 sounds a little too bitter. like a fat guy banged his wife.
Stef | November 6, 2009 at 4:44 pm
Yawn. The dude walked away…he can’t have been hurt that bad.
Heh | November 6, 2009 at 4:45 pm
@3, did you not here the tone of the kids voice? He was scared shitless. And he should have been. Good thing his mommy was there to back him up though, right?
I have to agree with 6.
stupidass | November 6, 2009 at 4:45 pm
“Yes sir JG, I’m sorry I’m sorry! Look I’ll punch myself in the face right now, okay?”
*knocks own teeth out*
“Thee?? I’m thorry, pleath don’t hurt me”

Maybe James can smack Michael Lohan around next, I’d pay covercharge to see that.
amoi | November 6, 2009 at 4:56 pm
I read somewhere (which makes it 100% true) that Gandolfini is just as much as real-life prick as he was on The Sopranos. Which makes him A-1 in my books.

Damn Fish that was fuck!!!
Glad to hear these pap smears are getting man handled. They have no right to spy and stalk the cunts.

That dude is a bull.

They (meaning: celebrities, famous actors and singers) have NO right doing this. They CHOSE to pursue this profession, and along with it comes the burden of being followed around by the paparazzi once in a while (as it is in his case). He can always stop doing what he’s doing, and go work a night shift at a warehouse somewhere. No one’s gonna bother him there.
Jamie Lynn's Uterus | November 6, 2009 at 5:34 pm
Another psycho self important actor. He should be grateful someone gives a shit. What a douche.
Huh | November 6, 2009 at 5:36 pm
What kid was scared? The bully Gandolfini? The photog was a pussy.
LOL | November 6, 2009 at 5:40 pm
LOL. James’ ugly mom had to defend him. Sloppy sad old man. What a cunt.
LifeSavour | November 6, 2009 at 5:42 pm
I’ve heard about the German Hairless Bear attacking but I’ve never seen it live on video! Bravo kid for capturing him in his natural enviornment.

gandolfini is a pseudo-gangster with a mental illness that makes him think that he’s still on the set of that shitty show sopranos. that’s why he goes around and bullies people who he knows won’t fight back.
Furio | November 6, 2009 at 6:02 pm
Though he’s been known to have tantrums, we don’t know what preceded this. From the initial reaction of his Mom, it seems like she recognizes the photographer from another time, perhaps that same day, perhaps all day. She says something about leaving them alone before James reacts. Seems like his reaction was in part due to her being upset that the guy was filming. Certainly not appropriate, but nobody would like having cameras up their ass while they’re out trick or treating with their kids.
Richard Scott | November 6, 2009 at 6:17 pm
It’s obvious this person just wanted to use James’ picture to attract attention himself and/or sell it. If you want a picture of someone … then just ask! But, don’t be a moron and assume you can sneak one just to make money. You wanna hire James or another actor to appear in your video, the pay ‘em.
Why should James allow people to just take his picture so they can sell it on the Internet?
Go James!
Yeah! | November 6, 2009 at 6:53 pm
Yeah Tony S! Get a real job pap.
Chow Mein | November 6, 2009 at 7:00 pm
maybe it’s the dead eyes.
Ed Castillo | November 6, 2009 at 7:16 pm
why are the paparazzi even following this has been?
steve | November 6, 2009 at 7:20 pm
What you could not see was that the video guy was about 5′ 120 lb. This fat fuck mafia wannabe needs his ass smacked down. I hope I run into him. I will shove a camera up his fat ass. You hear that pal.
jim | December 10, 2010 at 4:58 am
wanna meet big shot ?
see how tough you are ?
Jaypo | November 6, 2009 at 7:24 pm
They’re following him because he pulls stunts like this. A video like this is worth a years salary for a pap and will bring Gandolfini even more unwanted photographers.
Way to play into their hands, chump.

GET THA MOTHERFUCKER, ANTHONY SOPRANO ALL THA WAY
IF UR MAN ENOUGH TO POINT A CAMERA WITH NO PERMISSION THEN BE MAN ENOUGH FOR THE REACTIONS COMING. STAND UR GROUND U PUNK BITCH
Robby Rasmusson | November 6, 2009 at 7:42 pm
Noone who reads The Superficial has the moral authority to be throwing stones at the paparazzi.
Evil | November 6, 2009 at 7:57 pm
They should strap knives to the front of their cameras.
Hello There | November 6, 2009 at 8:02 pm
He really is Tony Soprano which is BADASS. Not enough real life bad asses any more these days.
Larrythefatcat | November 6, 2009 at 8:27 pm
“Get away from my son!”
Yeah… I’ve gotta think that that probably came to mind once Gandolfini started charging toward the pap and trying to slap the camera out of his hand. Just a bit.
_me | November 6, 2009 at 9:28 pm
The only terrifying thing about these pics is the fact he cut the eyes out of the Homer mask and then just glared inside there like a tormented serial killer would. Scariest stuff I’ve ever seen on the net.
Auto Profit Launcher | November 6, 2009 at 9:41 pm
That not enough video scenes I think… I can’t get the points
flodyjuice | November 6, 2009 at 9:43 pm
No matter there…
psp zubehör | November 6, 2009 at 9:47 pm
What’s with the headline? Photographers are only photographers if you hire them. Otherwise, they are just stalkers.
It is rude to film or take pictures of people without asking first. Don’t be rude to people, because you will just piss them off. I leaned that when I was 5.

He should of pushed the pap in front of a bus.
It should be legal to mace and kick paps down the stairs. They are subhuman.
