Patrick Duffy Posted June 30, 2021 Posted June 30, 2021 Looks very interesting. Love how it starts with the late great James Gandolfini speaking. Really looking forward to seeing this. Looks like another David Chase master piece.... 4 1 1 Quote
shrader Posted July 2, 2021 Posted July 2, 2021 The brief glimpse of Ray Liotta in there makes me wish they found a way to give Joe Pesci a cameo. Quote
Tierlifer Posted July 4, 2021 Posted July 4, 2021 I can not wait either. His kid looks just like a young John Cusack. 1 Quote
Saxum Posted July 6, 2021 Posted July 6, 2021 Like Star Wars Part I. I wonder who will play the equivalent to Jar Jar Binks. Quote
The Poojer Posted July 6, 2021 Posted July 6, 2021 (edited) gonna be a multi film thing or a one off? Kinda hoping for the former. Ray Liotta seems like a perfect fit in that @shrader, almost a chance fictional meeting between the goodfellas family and the soon to be sopranos crew...that would be super cool to see On 7/2/2021 at 10:31 AM, shrader said: The brief glimpse of Ray Liotta in there makes me wish they found a way to give Joe Pesci a cameo.

BuffaloBill Posted January 9, 2022 Posted January 9, 2022 I finally watched The Many Saints of Newark last night. To be honest, I did not like it. They tried too hard to come up with something and to me it just did not have the same draw as the original. Tony made the original and the story just falls apart without his true character. 1 Quote
TBBills Posted January 9, 2022 Posted January 9, 2022 This movie wasn't what I expected and maybe that is why I didn't like it. Right when it looked like it was getting good it ended... Quote

muppy Posted January 9, 2022 Posted January 9, 2022 I think I would be letdown unless it was absolutely brilliantly done. I'm not sure that would be even possible in a movie format. A Prequel SERIES where they develop the characters, more content even new drama angles etc would be better another series I absolutely adored was Sons of Anarchy......now Kurt Sutter would have been a fascinating choice for executive producer of a Sopranos prequel. That show brought the drama and you Invested in he characters even though they were basically criminals , similar to the Sopranos. Now THAT would be a show Id binge watch. m Quote
coloradobillsfan Posted January 9, 2022 Posted January 9, 2022 SPOILERS BELOW No disagreement with the consensus here! The magic of the TV show was that not everything had to be wrapped up in a neat little bow at the end of every episode. As in life, things just don't work like that. The movie by contrast seemed rushed from beginning to end. We were barely introduced to Dickey's father, and the next thing we know he's getting his head bashed in. The whole twin thing was bizarre really, although I did find Liotta's performance of Dickey's uncle in prison to be a saving grace. All the Easter Eggs really hurt. It seemed like every other scene there had to be some reference to the original series. How many people did not hear the "varsity athlete" line coming a mile away?? And the actor who played Silvio went WAY over the top. Sil's mannerisms would have developed over time as he aged. The whole race riot subplot seemed distracting, disjointed, and unnecessary. Quote

I am as big a Sopranos fan as there as, and I just can't be bothered to watch TMSON at all! I've watched the trailers and have a feel for what they are doing, and your reaction to watching it is the sort of thing that's making me drag feet on it. It just looks like a disappointment waiting to be viewed. I'll watch it some day, when it's in front of my face by accident. Quote
Fr. Jerk Posted January 9, 2022 Posted January 9, 2022 Haven't peeped. I'm guessing it's like El Camino - not bad but really not nessicary. Quote

Have not watched Many Saints. Based on reviews. Wanted it to be excellent. Wonder if it’s a lead in to a prequel series. That would be cool. El Camino. Had to watch it a few times, better the 2nd time. Good, not bad. Didn’t want it to ruin the actual series, and it didn’t. Quote
