I honestly didn’t know until I watched the Sopranos credits flash up that Michael Imperioli is a writer. As the episode unfolded I was like, “Oh shit. That’s why he’s so good at playing a bad writer cos it’s everything he despises and knows not to do!”
Apparently Chase didn't actually want to make this a Sopranos sequal. He wanted to make a series about the Newark Race riots but the only vehicle the studio would allow him to carry said topic was the Sopranos - which Chase had to sort of begrudgingly force in.
Such a shame how screenwriters have to jump through hoops like this. You can't create an interesting, original concept without having to disguise it as an unwanted sequel or prequel.
Damn thats crazy. I thought the poor bastard would have enough clout to make whatever wanted. David simon gets to serve up diminishing returns on multiple occasions
Letting him off a bit light there. He could just stick by his guns, Simon was able to make “We own this City” set in Baltimore and there’s nothing connecting it to The Wire.
@@GrimReader Not really the same thing; WOTC is clearly trading on the success of The Wire because it's about policing in Baltimore, half the cast is from The Wire, and it's even shot like The Wire. However he did make Treme and he obviously wasn't forced to make it about the war on drugs.
35:05 "Well y...yeah... well like, the one, so like, when he's playing the grandfather, like, I don't know, like, i... fir.. like, Ray Liotta's face looks like he's like... a cat that ate a bee."
The best part this movie adds to the Sopranos lore, is that it makes the moment Tony gives Chrissy the identity of his dad's killer just stupidly petty in a darkly comedic way. That guy probably didn't kill Christy's dad, he's probably just some asshole Tony wanted dead and used the lie he killed Dickie as an excuse to get someone else to kill him. While also getting loyalty from Chris for a whole of 5 minutes.
It was obvious that Tony lied to Chrissy even back then. It showed how little tony cared for Chrissy at that point of their relationship. He simultaneously used him while pretending to help him.
@@princegobi5992 why would admitting he killed chris's dad make chris not want to kill him? he has a reason to. if hes the wrong guy then chris has no personal beef with him and its just going off tony's orders
I'm such a god damned easily pleased soprano consoomer that the last five minutes saved the whole movie for me. The classic theme kicks in and I turn into a open-mouthed mcu post credit scene manbaby.
i saw this in theaters with my friend and used the bathroom during the scene in which it's revealed that Ray Liota is playing 2 twin brothers. when i got back to my seat and my friend filled me in, my jaw pretty much dropped to the floor
It should have been a miniseries. That would have provided an opportunity to avoid everything wrong with the film. Particularly the opportunity to inform on the original series.
37:00 (somewhere around here) , I don't agree that Melfi was a bad psychiatrist. She did "help" Tony with his panic attacks, and although that didn't make him "better", just a more "functional" criminal, the way she was dealing with him was mostly appropriate up to the point she realized she wasn't helping him. (It portrays some of the problems and limitations with psychiatry, but not entirely dismissing it). The discussions that she was having with him were at least approaching the source of some of the problems.
I think her plotline in a writing sense kinda derailed after Livs actress died. Without his mother around anymore, Tony's therapy sessions just become this series of circular conversations.
the show makes a point multiple times about how Tony just encorporated the advice he got from therapy to improve his organized crime enterprise, he just got along better with his employees he extorted and killed other people with. no direct problem was ever identified or solved that stopped him from hating his life/family and murdering his best friend, lol. Carmela's jewish therapist character literally says that he's not going to accept blood money, and he doesn't have any sympathy for her mental health dilemmas when she's continuing to enjoy the comfort of that lifestyle
The issue with the idea that Felix put forth that the mafia can’t exist in a de-industrialised society is that it’s not true: that’s where they do best. Just look at the places where criminal syndicates have reached their evolutionary apex: Italy, Japan, and Russia, where all the big mafia holdings just essentially became banks. The issue is that the US economy is so “open” that the local market for organised crime got completely swamped by people who have been at this state of affairs for longer (since the 90s for the three groups above) that the US small business tyrant Tony Soprano can’t compete, he doesn’t know how.
Yes, but what Felix says does absolutely hold up for the Midwest and especially in large Rust Belt cities. Hell, it even applies to smaller, carved out rustbelt cities like the one I live in
Yeah man, definitely in those other countries that we hate like Russia and not in America, the core of modern empire... Or even London, the city that literally only exists due to lax international banking regulations... Russia though...

Genuinely curious if Chase once had an ability to write/craft a tight, entertaining & meaningful film that gets a message across in three acts whuch ultimately atrophied when he (self described/admittedly) "Sold out" to spend thirty years in Television? Or if his skillset is just one that lends itself to the format & pacing of longform storytelling via Television and its that inability *to* write/craft a great film that feeds his deeply felt insecurities towards TV (Though its very likely a generational perspective too) as well as the glorification of film
I think he’s just honestly suited to television as a writer. It’s obvious that he gets very invested in gray characters who are complex and contradictory. How he leveraged television to portray those characters literally showed the way for all the best series in history: Mad Men, The Wire, Break Bad/BCS and others. Without Chase (and Gandolfini), this era of television wouldn’t have come about the way it did. I think after Gandolfini died, that was like losing a partner for Chase. Someone who deeply understood his work and could make it come to life. He never was able to find that again.
The American mafia was at the height of its power when this movie was set. Black gangs and the Italian mafia did "battle it out" in Newark, but it was largely one-sided. Black gangsters had to pay money to the Italian mafia. Great book "five families" which speaks about Tumac Acceturo who led the Lucchese family Jersey Faction, and his successful efforts to take over the black neighborhood rackets.
Michael Gandolfini was easily the best part of the movie. I didn’t hate it as much as most people, but I certainly didn’t love it. I almost feel like I can’t even judge it. The knowledge of its relationship to The Sopranos essentially caused my brain to short circuit throughout much of the movie.
Hated the film but I tihnk that the take on the Ray Liotta thing was off - he didn't REALLY have a brother, I think that the idea is that it's a dream sequence kind of thing, the idea of having a version of his father that was the opposite of what his dad was in real life (measured, thoughtful and cultured cos he likes Miles Davis). This dream sequence theory is bolstered by the fact he tells him that he wants to host kids baseball teams or something and then visually fantasizes about it - also the coloring of the room is dreamy and it also justifies him being visually identical to his father.
The movie was excellently casted but that’s about it. Really felt like it didn’t tell any of the important parts of Dickies life and for sure could have used more Johny Boy also don’t have John Bernthal play Johnny Boy
Felix very quiet at the criticism of Chase being unable to write black characters cause he’d have to admit a certain other GOAT show could and did at the same time
What's crazy is that we actually love mob stories y'all didn't need to add any black folks we love some cliche Italians in suits clipping wise guys. I've literally never met another black person who doesn't love the sopranos
Also yes, the movie is intentionally bad because it's told by a dead Christopher, who was a bad movie maker himself. The movie is colored as if it was made by Christopher in his afterlife.
It needed to be an 8 episode mini series. Way too many characters and stories squeezed into two hours. The Harold vs Dicky rivalry could have been good if we actually spent more time with it.
What a weird reading of the MC: “He went to a black poetry reading and said I’m gonna do bigger crimes” It’s literally about taking control. That’s all. Someone from a historically oppressed community with a lack of control sees something that has routinely been attributed for awakening a sense of personal control in many peoples lives during civil rights movements. So yeah. It makes perfect sense that someone in that time would go there and desire self actualization. Sure that self actualization may be within the circumstances of their choices in crime, but we really gonna pretend Tony wasn’t grappling with literally this same shit? It’s just something they seem more than willing to apply to Tony. I dunno this just seems like complaints about it not being their sopranos and less about engaging with it beyond “it was two dimensional so it shouldn’t hVe been tried at all” instead of seeking for a deeper lens. I have plenty of problems with the movie and thing it generally didn’t need to exist, but damn it’s like they’re actively trolling in the way they talk about this.
I liked it fine. It wasn’t brilliant, but it was about what I wanted, essentially a 90 minute episode of the show. Making Sopranos “more cinematic” makes it no longer The Sopranos.
You can view the shows portrayal of the main characters as a critique of American culture and economy. Just one example, the mobster characters reminisce fondly about the “old school” gangsters and their “honor” while in the 21st century they’ll flip the moment any of them are slightly inconvenienced.
To piggy back off that, it's venemous towards both mainstream sides of Amerocan political discourse. The mobsters are largely conservative and of course hypocritical monsters (they're the mafia, duh) that highlight some of the absurdity of venerating the past or clinging to old ways when it's not useful, while the conniving, fake, weak, holier-than-thou hypocrisy of characters coded as liberal is a snapshot of how the people who climb the American ladder in the modern era suck. I don't think Chase is a leftist, but a relatively even handed critique of American culture that actually has verisimilitude will give a LOT of fodder for a ledt-wing reading.
@@jj947 the show also makes clear that the sort of "honour" they're talking about never existed. All the flashbacks to the old school mobsters show that they're just as shitty as the modern ones and the only thing that separates them is that the modern ones are fighting over scraps
Many Saints wasn’t great and should have been at least one season instead of crammed into two hours. But it mostly suffered from le epic internet circle jerks, like Last of Us 2. I’ve watched the entire tv series through twice and some of the revisionists ignore that there are a ton of weak boring episodes. It’s a great show, but the Sopranos twitter cult is tiresome at best.
Once you become aware of how many times they say "like" it's like becoming aware of your breathing: you can't stop noticing it and it slowly drives you insane.
Damn, I wanna know why you think it's terrible. I get not liking it, but it seems objectively solid to me. Like, idk, I've seen terrible tv and it's obvious to me that The Sopranos is not terrible.
the tv show Sopranos was overrated, closer to a soap opera for men then the great movies like Goodfellas and Godfather I&II and Once Upton A Time In America...
Matthew Weiner went from writing on the Sopranos to creating Mad Men, which is lauded as one of the great TV shows but even more than The Sopranos is basically just an upmarket soap opera.
