Does he? My memory is of him being a few steps above Chrissie and Junior, he's got his own place that's pretty nice, he takes care of his "Ma", etc. Maybe I'm wrong.

^^^thought it was a house...? I dunno I can't remember - I'll take notes when I get to that episode.

Paulie cuts coupons, but is that leaving meagerly or just thriftily?
― tokyo rosemary, Wednesday, 10 December 2008 00:34 (fifteen years ago) link
leaving = living
Well I think it's clear from the show that Tony is a much much more successful gangster than Junior is, but that Junior is still a cut above most of the rest of these guys.

My fave Richie quote from this season...
Tony: I thought I told you to back off Beansie!Richie: I did. Then I put it in Drive.

If memory serves, I believe this was based on a real-life NYC/NJ capo who was pretty high-up and wealthy but lived rather spartanly in an apartment over a butcher shop.
― Chris Barrus (Elvis Telecom), Wednesday, 10 December 2008 00:50 (fifteen years ago) link
yah junior/paulies living situations prob hav more to do w/bachelorhood than any financial realities

much like young attorney roommates sitting in a blank apartment before a lol hueg tv smoking weed they are just environment indifferent

ya exactly
and i gotta say i am NOT a fan of dream sequences as a rule but sopranos is a huge exception... they are really brilliant and totally integral to the show

are you referring to the GIF or your opinion of that ep?
― s1ocki, Wednesday, 10 December 2008 15:09 (fifteen years ago) link
man, this show packs in SO much. so dense.
for instance. i started this thread last night not having seen that episode yet (well, not yet re-watched it), and i TOTALLY forgot that pussy gets it this season!! i had just been assuming it was in season 3!
and i also totally remembered livia dying in season 2!
― s1ocki, Wednesday, 10 December 2008 15:10 (fifteen years ago) link
she livias on in our hearts

Shakey, that site we both bought the complete box from is out of business now. I'm glad we got while the getting was good...
― WmC, Wednesday, 10 December 2008 16:51 (fifteen years ago) link
there's a BIZARRE CGI shot in one of the S2 episodes... when the garbage gets dumped on the deli owner's parking lot and he's calling to complain about it and the garbage is in the foreground and it's clearly a static plate that's been pasted in... so weird
― s1ocki, Wednesday, 10 December 2008 16:52 (fifteen years ago) link
? where does this happen
― Shakey Mo Collier, Wednesday, 10 December 2008 16:52 (fifteen years ago) link
the episode when she dies, she has a scene with tony... nancy marchand died suddenly so they didn't get a chance to film anything with her.
― s1ocki, Wednesday, 10 December 2008 16:53 (fifteen years ago) link
huh - haven't gotten there yet. Don't remember it jumping out at me before. Oddly I DO remember that garbage thing you mention, that was weird.
― Shakey Mo Collier, Wednesday, 10 December 2008 16:54 (fifteen years ago) link
like, real garbage is so hard to come by, you know?
― Shakey Mo Collier, Wednesday, 10 December 2008 16:55 (fifteen years ago) link
obviously the shot was fucked for some reason or they were unhappy with it so it was a last-minute fix, i'm sure. totally weird tho.
― s1ocki, Wednesday, 10 December 2008 16:56 (fifteen years ago) link
I don't remember the shot, but I remember rewinding the Livia scene once I saw her haircut change about eight times.
― өөө (Pleasant Plains), Wednesday, 10 December 2008 17:30 (fifteen years ago) link
don't remember the trash shot.
don't remember pleasant plains rewinding the livia scene.
― s1ocki, Wednesday, 10 December 2008 17:48 (fifteen years ago) link
someone needs to pay more attention
― Yentl vs Predator (blueski), Wednesday, 10 December 2008 17:54 (fifteen years ago) link
I bet I pissed off a lot of Sopranos viewers when I did that.
― өөө (Pleasant Plains), Wednesday, 10 December 2008 17:55 (fifteen years ago) link
the livia cgi might have bothered me less if the dialogue didn't feel like it was just scraps from previous episodes and the conversation between tony and livia in that episode didn't come across like him talking to a computer program. would have worked better as a dream sequence.
― omar little, Wednesday, 10 December 2008 18:52 (fifteen years ago) link
do not envy david chase in that position tho. also had to scrub his whole season arc apparently.
― s1ocki, Wednesday, 10 December 2008 18:58 (fifteen years ago) link
nancy marchand kinda got a raw deal too.
― өөө (Pleasant Plains), Wednesday, 10 December 2008 19:12 (fifteen years ago) link
