Comments on: The Sopranos’ Finale: David Chase Literally Fades To Black http://themoderatevoice.com/13402/the-sopranos-finale-david-chase-literally-fades-to-black/ An Internet hub with domestic and international news, analysis, original reporting, and popular features from the left, center, indies, centrists, moderates, and right Sun, 27 May 2012 22:34:42 +0000 hourly 1 http://wordpress.org/?v=3.1.2 By: Joe Gandelman http://themoderatevoice.com/13402/the-sopranos-finale-david-chase-literally-fades-to-black/comment-page-1/#comment-85291 Joe Gandelman Mon, 11 Jun 2007 23:26:27 +0000 http://themoderatevoice.com/entertainment/13402/the-sopranos-finale-david-chase-literally-fades-to-black/#comment-85291 Laura. In case you haven't noticed by now, we write about all kinds of things on TMV. And The Sopranos seemed to have a teeny-weenie bit of viewship over the years and have a slight bit of an impact on television so it is a valid subject. We will continue to write about topics other than the usual Bush Is Bad/Bush Is Misunderstood or Democrats Democrats Democrats Republicans Republicans Republicans Hillary Hillary Hillary McCain McCain McCain posts on TMV. From the very start this site did more than just cover politics. Sorry you feel that way but maybe some other nonpolitical topics will be of interest to you. Laura.

In the snow scene when Tony is in the Feds car, Tony tells the Fed about a bank the terror suspects use. The Fed is not happy with the information. Tony also tells the Fed that AJ is worried about the terror plots and asks if he making a molehill. This shows Tony is a bit ignorant and the Fed does not answer since it should be making a mountain out of a molehill. In the psychiatrists office we learn AJ has bought a lesson plan to speak Arabic. Also AJ is saying throughout the show it is a time of trouble for the country and he wants to help. Tony says all you need to know is Shiscabob. This shows Tony's ignorance of the world around him. When Phil is killed the Fed says we may win this thing. When Tony is out to eat with Meadow she bemoans the states treatment of her father, he asks what state the state of NJ, and she no says no the Feds. AJ is interested in serving his country, breaking dependence on foreign oil. When AJ is laughing at the TV he is viewing Bush and Rove dancing. The man entering the bathroom at the diner looks like a Fed. Tony's visit to the mental ward, shows how mob families pass on power by the generation. My take, the Feds need help with tracking terror plots, Tony has been less than cooperative, AJ seems willing to serve country. The feds protect the Soprano family with the info on Phil. The feds kill Tony, AJ is forced to take family lead, the feds feel he will be cooperative. I will watch the show again with all the following in mind.

Shouldn't you be blogging about real issues instead of a tv show? It might shock you to know some of us aren't the least bit interested in this show. Who the hell cares?

I posted on my blog last night right after it was over and wouldn't change a word this morning. Among other things, Chase was saying The Sopranos isn't just gangster melodrama, it was trying to be like life, and life doesn't come tied up in neat packages. In its way, his is the anti-Godfather ending--no dramatic montages, operatic killings, heavy-breathing philosophy.
