Say goodbye to the Sopranos conspiracy theory. Even though nobody has talked about the show in three months, creator David Chase has decided to bring it up again and crush any sort of creative interpretation Sopranos fans dreamed up.
Tony Soprano was not whacked, according to Chase. In fact, he's exasperated at the fact that Sopranos fans were not satisfied by the infamous "cut to black" ending and berates them for wanting to see Tony dead.
First of all, this guy has gotta realize that you can't please everyone ever. Then, he needs to realize the importance of mystery, intrigue, imagination...Why would you create an ending so incredibly open to analysis, and then months later decide the ending for everyone?
Personally, I'm not a Sopranos fanatic, but I found the finale intriguing and wanted to know more. I really liked the Tony gets whacked scenario, flashing back to the conversation on the boat, that "you never see it coming." When I heard that, I thought 'genuius!' But now hearing this? It's so anticlimatic and completely contradictory to the spirit of the cliffhanger. Bad move, Mr. Chase.
