The Sopranos Finale Options

[JRockTTU]

I know this is a few days late, but this is probably one of the most polarizing finales ever. Everybody hated the Seinfeld ending, but some people think this ending was brilliant, others think it was a shitfest. I haven't been able to shake it off my mind for some reason. What do you think?

I thought it was a steaming pile of shit (the ending, not the episode). I know that he left it open and all of that crap, but it felt like more of a cop out than brilliance. It's like me throwing a paint covered tennis ball at a wall and calling it impressionist art. I don't need to have a totally conclusive ending to be satisfied, but I have to be given some clue in as to what the writer intended. David Chase giving us that ending and then pretending it's clear as day pisses me off.

David Chase:

"I have no interest in explaining, defending, reinterpreting, or adding to what is there," said Chase, 61, who grew up in North Caldwell.

"People get the impression that you're trying to (mess) with them, and it's not true. You're trying to entertain them," he said. "Anybody who wants to watch it, it's all there."
