The Sopranos - *Contains spoilers*

I'm over at the HBO forums, and people are going apesh!t over the ending. At first I thought that the cable company had fu<ked up, then I saw it go to the credits and was like WHAAAT?. Who else watched it?

Yea saw it and was disapointed like everyone else. I thought Meadow was going to accidentally get shot in the final scene. I think they left it open so they could make a movie if they wanted.

I hated it at first but really like it now. It symbolizes Tony's death the most cryptic way possible and still leaves it open for interpretation afterwards. Remember the scene on the boat with Bobby in the first episode of the season? "when you die, eveything just goes black"...they did a flashback to that scene when Bobby was killed, probably to foreshadow that occuring in the finale.

damn, watching the sopranos is harder than writing a term paper on the book I read in 12th grade English

what doesn't make sense thought, is I thought they backed up off of him. What was the point of killing him then?

Here's my theory on it. Tony lives. The clues are in the music.

1. Journey "Don't Stop Believin'" Very upbeat for the last moment.
2. Music always symbolizes something in Sopranos. Tony sang "Aqualung" (about a man w/ lung cancer) Johnny Sack dies of lung cancer later. Tony sings "Comfortably Numb" The car accident where Tony kills Chris, "Comfortably Numb" is playing. AJ and his girl are listening to Bob Dylan's "Its ok ma, I'm only bleeding" (or something like that) in the finale.

I see then ending as very metaphorical. Sometimes in life there is no closure and what better way to end a show that was about the unexpected than to give a big F You to what everyone was expecting.

Somebody should post the episode

I stopped watching this back when tony started having them dreams about four seasons ago. It got really poor from there.

David Chase doesn't give a rat's @** about what people think of the finale. Personally though, I thought it could have been better.
