Opie & Anthony: James Gandolfini Died (06/20/13)

[@paulieswalnut]

I never watched The Sopranos til I needed something to do during the pandemic. It's easily the best show ever made and the biggest reason was Gandolfini.

[@Gmenpg]

My dad loves all the great shows, but won’t watch sopranos. It kills me.

[@pianoman551000]

@@Gmenpg I have a lot of friends who won't watch the Sopranos despite my recommendation that it's one of the greatest shows ever to be shown on television. I just tell them to give it a try and they will end up binging the show like I did.

[@alkohallick2901]

Try Six Feet Under.

[@johndong7524]

I've been watching Sopranos since 2000. No need for some dumb bored zoomer affirmation. I already know it's the greatest show. You're late to the party, dick.

[@grilledlettuce1845]

@@pianoman551000 they and the guy's dad you're replying to don't deserve to watch it. You think they'd watch something like "Join the Club" and get anything out of it? They need quirky but loveable Marvel characters to relate to

32:10 that is unreal.

[@bennyhath1789]

Even better than ant's butthead impression

[@Grochlink]

It's been years and I was at work and Gandolfini was brought up and in my head I heard "I fucking died" from Max's impression and I started laughing out loud.

[@Ionization2020]

The period around 29:00 when they all shut up and listened to the actor's studio interview is what made the show great. It was so easy to forget this was a radio show and not just random conversations. Not sure if we will ever have a show like that again.

[@Anfubvinch]

We won't.

[@gdawgs101]

That Tony Soprano impression from Max was fucking incredible!

[@coreytrevor1920]

Gandolfini was one of only 3 celebrity deaths that really got me down. John Entwistle and Rik Mayall the others. Anthony's right though, it was more the loss of Tony Soprano, I think. Maybe.

[@mr.smithgnrsmith7808]

Tom Petty’s death is the only one that really sucked

[@galshaine2018]

I too count Entwistle and Mayalls sudden deaths as the most shocking for me! I am a The Who fan and attended their last couple of shows with him (London Albert Hall) which added to the shock. Alan B'Stard was a huge influence over me! I owe my English to him as The New Statesman encouraged me to get advanced learning it beyond school level.

[@jockoadams3377]

Gandolfini and Falco were the best in that show, so realistic.. and then the kids were total dogshit. Either just bad writing for them, poor acting or a combination of both.

[@GRYNGE7]

Jocko Adams the characters were great... The lesson was that kids suck

[@bradleygalli7745]

I always loved how Tony was always in charge unless he was in that house. Carmela really did have his balls, and even though he was a ruthless mob boss you could tell that he still struggled with stuff that every parent struggles with. A truly beautiful complicated character. I always think about that scene where AJ tries to kill himself and Tony saves him. The show was brilliant, and all the characters had so many layers.

[@immanuelcunt7296]

I didn't think the kids were too bad. They were the weakest characters, but even the weakest link on that show is pretty good. The writing was great. The acting was average at best, but it's hard to find great child actors.

[@jaycuthbert245]

David chase confirmed a few years ago tony did in fact die at the cut to black. For years he said he wanted the audience to make the decison for themselves but recently said hes suprised so many people didn't believe he was dead despite the fact chase felt he left adequate warnings and clues in his show leading upto it to see that ofcourse he was killed

[@crochetbyrhiannon]

No he didn't..

[@jaycuthbert245]

@@crochetbyrhiannon there is a video of him confirming it ffs just search David chase talks about sopranos ending. Its a special type of show he was on. Dont start mouthing off when you've clearly never seen the video because if you did see it you'd know I wasn't lying

[@crochetbyrhiannon]

@ I’ll mouth off as much as I want tf lmao . Maybe do YOUR research, there was literally a HBO documentary about the show this year wherein he says there is no definitive ending and it’s up to the audience. Go take a nap, lovely

[@jaycuthbert245]

@crochetbyrhiannon dude wtf are you doing acting tough through comments there is literally no need to be hostile. Youre the worst kind of person. I've seen him state Tony dies at the end I've seen him say it from his own mouth. Later on he back tracks and says its ambiguous however he's even said "I assumed it was obvious to the audience that he dies" but you continue to mouth off and be a typical keyboard warrior dude I can't stand mouthy people like you all safe behind their keyboard. I literally have no idea why you people out of nowhere think it's acceptable to be so aggressive randomly its literally pointless.

[@immanuelcunt7296]

Bullshit, you have to be a world-class actor to continually find more layers in a character for 6-7 years. Gandolfini was at the same level as De Niro, Pacino, Nicholson, and all those guys.
