The off topic thread 3.0

[SM]

The Sopranos was deliberately done that way, where things would happen and not be resolved.

The episode with the Russian out in the snow was another example of it.

There's interviews everywhere with the director about using that technique. Was part of the reason the show was so successful, the show was left up for interpretation on a few key things.

But that does get resolved? It's a big part of why Christopher and Paulie have a bust up.

 

[SM]

Exactly. It's very real. But it also puts you in the moment and will she, wont she. Will she tell Tony, she knows what would happen to the guy if she does tell Tony. It gives you those great questions as to what you would do in that situation. You know by telling Tony, you're killing that man. It's a tug of war in her own mind. Made for great viewing.

How? There's no scene where she's sitting there wrestling with that, it literally gets thrown away.

 

[SM]

Great song. Even greater voice.

Dear God no. Firstly you're about a month late on that, and secondly it's a horrendous song.

 

[Cooldude]

The "music taste is relative" thing is all well and good but 1D should be the exception to that rule

 

[jod23]

So why did you to begin with?

Fair play.

 

[jod23]

This is the song of the decade

That is ****ing awful. Just awful.

Huh, she wrestles with it constantly? In her sessions with Tony. T knows something is up with her too. But she wont say it.

Also, that AJ fight was absolutely ******* superb. Couldn't have asked for a better fight than that!

I was absolutely wasted watching it in a bar in Salou so will have to rewatch it but i remember loving it at the time.

I'm ashamed my hometown Hong Kong is associated with this song

Dunno how all the rappers feel about Iggy being considered a "rapper", too

I'm sure they all find it hilarious, like the rest of us do.

 

[WealstoneRaider]

Iggy representing Hong Kong? Nooo there can only ever be one

 

[Cruyff14]

Dear God no. Firstly you're about a month late on that, and secondly it's a horrendous song.

Like I said, I like it. That's all that's important to me.

 

[WealstoneRaider]

Fair play to Harry, least he's doing music he likes rather than stuff that would appeal to the masses. That falsetto though

 

[WealstoneRaider]

Has anyone ever tried this approach when breaking in a virgin? There's a really out of place line in this, see if you can spot it

 

[Cruyff14]

He's got a pretty good voice IMO.

And on Rod Stewart, wonderful tone in his voice.

Yeah, his early stuff is great. Turned into a schmaltz though

There's the episode where she comes back to work with a busted knee and she says she hurt herself, and he acts concerned for half an ep and then it's as if nothing happened.

No it doesn't. You don't know whether the Russian lived or died.

David Chase is one weird dude.

I've rewatched it a couple of times, I'd definitely recommend it. Brilliant bout.

Oh right, I never thought that would be something people would get caught up with. I just assumed he escaped them.

He definitely escaped but they also shot him in the head haha. When they couldn't find him, that's when people questioned whether he was dead or alive.

If you haven't already, reading David Chase's comments on some of the decisions made in the Sopranos makes for interesting reading. Really odd unit.

Didn't he just get shot in the ear? Thought it just grazed him.

2:43 in this. It looks head to me? You might be right though.
