An awesome watch. Very sad to see Tony Sirico pretty much completely out of it.

[coldengrey12]

Great to see all of those actors together, but very much missing Jimmy Gandolfini.

Is anyone picking up the new Sopranos book? I know my bro Scorkz is.

To celebrate the 20th anniversary of the show’s debut, Sepinwall and Seitz have reunited to produce The Sopranos Sessions, a collection of recaps, conversations, and critical essays covering every episode. Featuring a series of new long-form interviews with series creator David Chase, as well as selections from the authors’ archival writing on the series, The Sopranos Sessions explores the show’s artistry, themes, and legacy, examining its portrayal of Italian Americans, its graphic depictions of violence, and its deep connections to other cinematic and television classics.

Not reading anything in this thread, but I'm watching the show for the first time. Just watched S1E11 and it's been the best episode thus far.

PUMPED.

Gandolfini's son is going to be playing young Tony.

That really is fucking awesome news and I'm sure very emotional for many of the people involved.

Really looking forward to this one, I really like all the castings so far...I remember the guy playing Dickie Moltisanti as Nick Cage's younger brother Pollox Troy in Face/Off, Vera Farmiga perfect as Livia Soprano, Cory Stoll as Uncle Ju and Jon Bernthal as Junior Boy.

David Chase expects a 2020 release date.

I'd almost be more excited to hear they've signed on to do two seasons with HBO.

Some things, a movie seems like too little of a good thing.

Doing yet another rewatch.

Carmine is such a fucking idiot. The shit he says...

... too much gherkins

The question is, "Will I be as effective as a boss like my dad was?" And I will be, even more so.....but until I am, it's gonna be hard to verify that I think I'll be more effective.

Just watched S3E4 (Employee of the Month). Best episode of the series thus far. Not reading any posts in this thread. Will come back when I'm done with the series. lol.

[K3nTaKa0s]

S4E9 (Whoever Did This) is very good.

[AJF_41]

best show ever. still.

[scrock25]

:: mentions the fruits of Zellman ::

[coyn113]

rewatching now for the first time in years
First season is an absolute snoozefest. zero memorable or exciting things transpire. The storyline involving Tony's mom is extremely boring

I ain’t got no spleen, Gene.

[dre2142]

im restarting it too. Almost done with season 1- and then it gets good

[ShotgunDMB]

Anybody watched (or listened to) the new podcast?

[YankeesDMB41]

Steve Shurripa is hard to listen to, and Michael cares way too much about the independent film and off broadway careers of all the actors on the show. If it was 30 minutes shorter and they cut the fat out, it would be a lot better.

[K3nTaKa0s]

Just finished Season 4. Aside from a couple episodes, thought the season was pretty weak compared to the previous three.

[scrock25]

So I just finished the series again.

I was just reading something the other day and it brought up a good point about whether or not it’s Tony that dies at the end, or the viewer.

Chase was very deliberate about the the camera angles in that last scene at Holsten’s. The last shot when it cuts to black is looking AT Tony. It’s not from HIS POV.

I’m giving serious thought to it either being us, the viewer, or even Meadow. She’s the one running into Holsten’s and would have been looking directly at Tony as she entered based on where he was sitting.

[scrock25]

Either way, best show of all time. Hands down. Butch was so fucking hate-able.

Chase has come out and said Tony gets killed in the last scene pretty recently. It was pretty big news.

[scrock25]

No shit! Can you link me? I’ve always been in the “he got killed” camp anyway, just thought it was a cool theory.

Sepinwall: When you said there was an end point, you don't mean Tony at Holsten's, you just meant, "I think I have two more years' worth of stories left in me."

Chase: Yes, I think I had that death scene around two years before the end ... Tony was going to get called to a meeting with Johnny Sack in Manhattan, and he was going to go back through the Lincoln Tunnel for this meeting, and it was going to go black there and you never saw him again as he was heading back, the theory being that something bad happens to him at the meeting. But we didn't do that.

Seitz: You realize, of course, that you just referred to that as a death scene.

[A long pause follows]

Chase: F--- you guys

[scrock25]

That’s great

Fuck you guys
