"So, how does it end"?
"Everything goes black" And that is how The Sopranos ended last night. Remember when Bobby and Tony were on the boat back in the first episode of this season. Bobby asked Tony that same question and that was his answer. My first reaction was like everybody else's. Did my cable just go out? FUCK?! I thought I paid the bill last week WTF! Then the credits rolled in silence and I was left wondering what happened to Tony Soprano, the most iconic character in television history. Well here is what happens: He has to live his live in constant fear of being shot by who knows what and he can't even enjoy a dinner with his family. He is probably going to be indicted because Carlo Gervasi is chirping to the feds about him. I know what the next question is, Who is Carlo? Well thank Al Gore for Wikipedia because it is already updated with all of his info.
Before you go on and say the ending sucked and I didn't get it, watch the last 4 minutes again. To tell you the truth other than Phil getting shot in the head and the car rolling over said head (great death scene IMO) Phil went out and we know he isn't coming back. Those are the only scenes worth watching in the whole episode. When Meadow is parking her car, David Chase the creator of The Sopranos keeps the whole stereotype going about Jersey Girls not being able to parallel park and I for one am offended. Jersey Girls can parallel park as long as they can do the "Jersey Bump" Sorry I got sidetracked, Didn't you think that Meadow was going to be shot or when she got out of the car she was going to get run over by an Escalade or an IROC in an I.R.O.C. But she didn't and you had a little sense of relief. Same thing when Tony is in the restaurant with his family eating onion rings and with everyone that came in you were thinking, "Hey maybe this person will shoot Tony" But it didn't happen. But it is that sense of foreboding, that oh shit something bad is going to happen right now is what made The Sopranos such a great show. You can smell and taste the drama coming out of your television screen and that last scene kept me wanting more. which is why we will get a movie out of this.
Bring on "The Sopranos" movie, I will be there watching it opening night.
