Sopranos - 5/13

I don't think it's sloppy writing. I think it was intentional. Sometime in these next few episodes, A.J. is going to have to decide once and for all whether he will join the life and we will be there watching ... with these two very distinct and different scenes in our heads ... wondering which side he is going to pick.

Yeah. So far, he looks a lot more like Fredo than Michael Corleone.

My thinking is, at the end of the show, he'll be in "the business," and we'll know he is doomed to fail.

I keep thinking he's going to implode, suicide perhaps.
 
Tony: You alright?

Paulie: I know I had my differences with that kid, but maybe I didn't do right by him, neither. If you were his dad, I was his Dutch uncle. And what the fork did I do but get pissed off, fight with him over cocksucking, forking money? And break his balls when he tried not to have a drink or a little taste of snow.

Also, is it possible Christopher had a wire camera in that hat? He wasn't acting the way he had when coked up in episodes past.... more jumpy.... like someone doing something he shouldn't be doing, deathly afraid of being found out.

Sounds familiar. ::) ::)

Until the accident, I thought Christopher was jumpy because he'd already gone to the feds.

As for AJ, I think Starman is on to something re: bad meds that day. He loved burning the kid's toes and beating up the biker (and throwing his bike into traffic). Something about that whole scene in the shrink's office didn't seem quite right. It didn't feel authentic. It was almost as if the line "Can't we all just get along" was his way of saying he's not taking this seriously.
 
"Second Opinion" just ended on A&E. "He is Risen" is coming on. Like someone suggested on another thread I think last month or so, everyone should see those two and "Fortunate Son" between now and the next new episode of this current season. Guy I know is watching the first seasons along with this one and says it's making much more sense to him.

I meant to be specific regarding a video camera in the hat.

Yes... great mimes and all that jazz.

A couple of things.



one final thought, Chrissy's vegas gf showed some real acting chops in that bedroom scene. Yowza.

Didn't it seem strange to you that her and Tony never took off their clothes when they were in bed. Perhaps she was just giving him a lap dance.

HBO has some liberal standards, but I don't think the world is ready to see James Gandolfini with his pants off in widescreen HD. :o :o

There's no tasteful way to say this: It seems Tony is on the bottom in most of his sex scenes, particularly when he's not banging Carm. Is that Chase's way of reminding us about Tony's mother issues and that Tony is, in the end, submissive to women?

No.

It means that he would need a corset to gain access any other way.

Tony actually yells "I Get it." Not "I did it."

That's been the great debate for me about this episode. I thought I clearly heard him say, "I did it." But, apparently I'm wrong.
