An enjoyable thread, with some great arguments, ideas, and theories.
For those who are still unsure what happened at the end, there is a very long and detailed piece on the internet, that breaks down the final scenes, and provides a full explanation. It is called Master of Sopranos.
Before I saw this MoS, I myself was in a bit of denial. I now accept the explanation laid out by MoS.
I would like to put forward some ideas of my own about how the event occurred. I agree with the argument about Butch. It should be remembered that he first said "decapitate". I think this was always his intention but how did he do it? It should be remembered, that AJ worked for Little Carmine. All that had to be done, is to follow him. The smart move of course, is to walk in before him.
I remember watching the final episode for the first time. I could see in real-time that the episode was soon going to finish. I didn't know what was going to happen. Yes! Meadow parking was so intense!
The black screen!
I was shocked!
Eventually, I accepted it! Bobby was right!
Let me make an argument for why the end was filmed as it was. It will be recalled, that when the final scenes were filmed, it was a circus. Huge numbers of people turning up at the shoot. In real-life, you could not film scenes with actors walking around with huge amounts of ketchup on them, and then expect this to be kept secret. This is why when James Gandolfini was asked what happened, he said that nothing happened.
If fans of Tony Soprano want another ending, then they can just imagine T driving across NYC to Brooklyn and buying a bar.
