Escobarbarian posted:Worth pointing out that this is an excerpt from a new book, The Sopranos Sessions, which has a ton of conversations with Chase as well as new recaps of every episode and further discussion. I got it and have rewatched the first season while reading through and it’s well worth it for any fans of the show. I checked out this book on Amazon and holy poo poo this review, I think this guy should just write his own book: 1.0 out of 5 stars Couldn't get past page 60. posted:I pre-ordered this book and put down what I was in the middle of reading when it arrived. Now I'm putting this book down and going back to what I was reading before it arrived. When I finish that I'll pick this back up and restart at page 327, "The David Chase Sessions."

I'm sure its already been posted here and I've missed it but theres a Sopranos rewatch podcast with Michael Imperioli and Steve Schirripa. Between this and the Scrubs one I'm loving these deep dives to give us something to do during quarantine. https://podcasts.apple.com/gb/podcast/talking-sopranos/id1500453500

lmao at the frozen and terminator paintings. Looks like the type of thing you see on the side of a fairground ride.

stev posted:Wikipedia says it's going to be set during the 1967 Newark riots. Making Tony around 10? I've read set between 60s and 70s so probably jumps forward at some point. Google says tony was born in 59 so 8 years old in 67, Mike Galdofini is 21 now.

I think we're lucky Trump was never in the show, it seems like a thing him and them would be up for. Which characters would vote for Trump? Basically all of them?

Sinteres posted:In the episode where Melfi points all this out, I'm pretty sure hair color is one of the things mentioned, with Tony triumphally pointing out that Carmela's blonde and Melfi saying she's the exception, in what I recall as an approving way. Melfi's probably the part of the show that's aged the worst, so having her be wrong about it is fine I guess, but it just feels pointless to me, like beating a dead horse. Yeah we get it, Tony has weird poo poo going on with his mother! Making her retroactively look like his wife too (which was not the case in the flashbacks) just seems like a bit much even for a show that had a psychoanalyst literally telling the audience what's going on in the protagonist's head throughout its run. I really think they only casted with matching Livia in mind, she doesn't look too much like Carmela to me, I wouldn't be surprised if any similarly is a coincidence.

Movie spoilers It definitely feels like there’s a whole other movies worth of stuff that got cut? Some people like Paulie were barely in it.

I think I heard as well as the cut Edie Falco scene, they had a version with Paulie as the opening as well. I disagree with you tbh, since this version of the film ended up being the Dickie story, Christopher narrating was the only one that made sense. Maybe earlier drafts were more of an ensemble. Like Edie Falco would be bizarre to open the film since we only see young Carmela once.

Vegetable posted:The domestic abuse scenes were harder to watch than the brutal gang violence. I don’t know if what that says about me I think that’s probably universal finding the more relatable stuff harder to watch.

Luff posted:Speaking of Gandolfini's career, is that TV movie remake of 12 Angry Men starring him any good? I remember thinking it was great but also kind of pointless with the original being so perfect already.
