Home Forums Hunting & Shooting Hunter's Campfire Sopranos Movie

I loved the Sopranos. Watched it every Sunday night , it was great television

but I hated all the drama with Carmella, the daughter and the son. Trying to make them a normal family with everyday issues wasn't interesting at all to me, there was one exception, the daughter dating a startup gangster who sucked at it and ended up getting whacked was pretty good which is pretty far from that Leave it to Beaver crap they kept pushing.

Don't know if you've seen the series Longmire yet but its also a good watch.

Yes that was good and Ozarks is pretty good as well.

Where did I say that? In fact, I indicated I was looking forward to it. I merely stated it would have been nice if he appeared a bit taller than average, like his dad. Helps make him appear more imposing.

I'm going to pass on this movie. It will be two hours of tying up loose ends while trying to recapture the essence of the series. Not having key actors will hinder it too.

Remember when the "X-Files" movie came out? Lots of fanfare that didn't work well compared to the series.

Hollywood is struggling to get original ideas, so it rehashes anything with name recognition.

They cannot have ANY key actors. It's about Tony when he was young. All the key actors from the series would be too old.

They could have had the flashback Johnny Soprano actor play Tony's dad, I guess. Same with the flashback Liv Soprano actress. They could also have had the flashback Uncle Junior actor playing that role again. None of those are exactly key actors from the series, though.

Watched it for a few seasons. Need to figure out where I left off and pick it up.

Is it over?

For those looking forward to it, I wouldn't hold my breath. This thing has been in production for I-don't-know-how-long. Right now, the tag on that Trailer was "Fall 2021". While that's not far away, it would surprise me if it's on time. Plus "Fall" could be anywhere from September to December as a release. Lots of hype on this show. I hope it delivers. The Trailer certainly looks good. When I first saw Gandolfini's son was going to play young Tony, I thought it would be a small part and the focus would be on Bernthal playing Tony's dad, Johnny Boy Soprano and maybe on Junior. Now it looks like the main focus is on Tony and possibly Dickie Moltisante. Gandolfini's son, an unknown, having such a big part, is strange. He looks like he has the chops to do it, going just by this trailer though.

you're probably righty. Cant catch lightning in a bottle twice.

Sopranos
The wire
Better Call Saul
Breaking bad
Deadwood

Yep, Michael G. comes across as a pretty good actor.

I believe n’flix still has it.

FWIW, IMDB says filming is completed and to be released 1Oct.

I’ll watch. It’s better than the standard mutant transvestite superhero movie that is today’s usual Hollywood offering.

Nope. HBO didn't renew their contract with Netflix. Been a while now since it's been available anywhere other than HBO, unless you want to buy it via iTunes or Amazon.

Cool.

Yes

Yeah I think it is done.

Weird.
Just looked and all 6 seasons show on ‘flix here.

I’m special!

If that's the case, they must have recontracted for it. There was at least a period of one year when it was not available on Netflix. Glad to hear it. Maybe I'll subscribe to Netflix again just to watch it through again.

The following message was dated March, 2021:

‘The Sopranos’ isn’t a part of Netflix’s impressive collection of titles. However, the streaming service does offer ‘Breaking Bad,’ a similar critically acclaimed series about a terminally-ill chemistry teacher’s rise in the underworld after he starts selling his own meth to ensure his family’s financial future when he’s long gone.
