Best Sopranos moment? https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Q7bN1wtmBL4 Basebf555 posted:My favorite Sopranos memory is of the crew going to Italy and Paulie being so confused about why the food is so different haha It was great because it revealed them for what they were: A glorified crew and Italian rednecks.

It's been a while since I've watched it but I always remembered that when someone would mention witness protection, the way they said and their body language indicated they knew what really happened.

This thread got me to re-watch the series. It's good to be reminded how good Gandolfini is in it. I mean, most of the casting is really good and they really bring the characters to life, but man, he's on a different level. You can just look at him and you know exactly what he's thinking in his head. He can go from sweet dad to a total insane psychopath in a heartbeat.

I just started season 2. Man, is there better foil than Janice? Last season Tony barely survived being assassinated by his uncle but he takes that all in stride for the most part. The mere presence of Janice makes him lose his goddamned mind.

Gilbert Gottfried has interviewed a few people from the Sopranos. Joe Pantoliano was a great interview. He goes into detail about how his own hosed up childhood and family life informed the Ralphie character. He also interviewed Dominic Chianese. A really good story teller and he does offer up some anecdotes about Gandolfini and others.

You definitely should. It's absolutely one of the most important and influential TV shows in the history of the medium. It was a turning point. I'm not being hyperbolic when I say it's the show that changed everything.

Shameless is that show where I'm always thinking, "Where is William H Macy? I just want him on the screen." Most of the subplots are average and some outright dumb. The show should have been canceled years ago.

Mushroom Zingdom posted:Just finished watching this a few days ago after starting in January. What an amazing show. I kept myself away from the thread since I didn't know if there would be spoilers (and I was very paranoid about having it ruined for me) and I'm glad that I kept my guard up so high. One or two spoiler-free posts I saw online claimed something like: "Don't worry about running out of Sopranos, the best part is getting to re-watch it." Even already, re-visiting scenes, you realize how fathoms-deep with richness and texture every single character and interaction is. What a remarkable show! I kind of can't believe that the show works so well both as on the first-pass through and on the N-th pass basis; that simultaneously it's super detailed, but not so hard to follow that you can't enjoy it taking each turn as you go, and that there are always new details to catch and observations to treasure upon revisit. Even just watching supercuts, compilations, and scenes on youtube over the last few days has been mindblowing. The Sopranos really is the one. It's the TV show that's the culmination of everything that TV had been working towards for decades. It all came together. After Sopranos there have been shows that are better written, or filmed, or acted, but Sopranos is far greater than the sum of its parts. I'd rather put on a random episode (or season) of Sopranos than say, something like Oz or Breaking Bad. I think there's a few reasons for it. I think the show's dark humor helps make it watchable. Even when the show gets into some serious or hosed up poo poo, there's still always something darkly funny about it. The other factor is James Gandolfini. It's just such an amazing, perfect performance through and through. We relate to him, we laugh with him, laugh at him, we fear him. I don't know if they'll ever be another show like the Sopranos and it will probably be a few more decades before we get that next evolutionary leap in TV.

I played the Sopranos pinball table over the weekend. It's an OK table, but it does have an animatronic fish so that definitely makes it worth checking out.

Ainsley McTree posted:Yeah I haven’t really been following the hype or press for the movie but I thought it wasn’t supposed to center around young tony is it? He’s meant to be more of a side character? The trailer definitely puts Tony front and center but with the story bits I was figuring out from the trailer, it really does seem this is supposed to be about Dickie. I think that’s how this movie was originally conceived.

Bip Roberts posted:I was thinking about watching the Rockford Files. Is there any good viewing strategy or should I just start with episode 1? It looks like Chase doesn't come into the show until season 3. I don't know. I've never seen it. It's episodic TV so I guess start wherever you want. The show was always nominated for Emmy's and stuff so it's probably solid the whole way through. Another David Chase show to check out is Kolchak the Night Stalker. David Chase worked on pretty much the whole show and it was a huge influence on the X-Files. It's one season and some TV movies.

I know it was always suspected or known, but this trailer definitely confirmed that the timeline has been shuffled a little. Tony and Chris were 10 years apart in age in the tv show and now it's like 16-18 years. It's not a big deal and it's why I haven't really bothered theory crafting anything for the movie. Did Chase or any other writers already straight up confirm that? Jose Oquendo fucked around with this message at 01:49 on Sep 9, 2021 |

Just got back from watching the movie. It was fine. I'd give a B. I think the movie's biggest problem is that it wanted to have its cake and eat it too. It should have been way more focused on Dickie and Howard's stories. Instead they wanted that AND they wanted a baby Sopranos story. The movie starts out strong with Dickie and Howard's stories running parallel and intertwining at points but Howard's story kinda ends with a wet fart at the end, without the same resolution of Dickie's. Young Tony and all his friends being the movie definitely made it feel overstuffed. With all of them in the movie, I really have to wonder if they're trying to 'backdoor pilot' something more with these actors. That said, everyone was really good in it.

I need to watch it again, but a few questions maybe you all might have answers for: -Did any actors aside from Michael Imperioli reprise their roles? -Towards the end when Tony gets in that tussle at the phone booth, who was he fighting with? -At the end who pulled the trigger? Harold or someone else, possibly the cop who according to Tony, did whack Dickie.. The screen was kinda dark at the theater I was at so I couldn't quite make it out, if we were supposed to.

PostNouveau posted:I don't read the prison scenes with Sally as all in Dickie's head because Dickie doesn't know they had Jews in the Middle Ages but Sally gives him a basic outline on Buddhism. Hard to think that Dickie doesn't even know super basic poo poo about his own religion but would have an understanding of a religion he'd likely never have come into contact with Wait what? There's people who think this? There's literally nothing in the movie to even remotely indicate it's in his head.

I was definitely expecting a deep fake Tony Soprano and I'm glad they showed some restraint. I probably would have chucked my tv out the window if that did happen.

khwarezm posted:So something I was wondering about the other day, in final episode it looks as though the FBI is getting very close to building a very solid case against Tony. But what happens if he's killed, in terms of the case? Would Carmela and the rest of the family have any reason to lose their assets like Johnny Sack's family does, or would the FBI forget about doing anything with the now dead Tony's assets, even if they could connect him and his money sources to illegal activities? edit: gently caress I'm an idiot.
