James Gandolfini dead?

Post by Req »

http://www.deadline.com/2013/06/r-i-p-james-gandolfini/
I’ve learned that actor James Gandolfini died suddenly in Italy after a suspected heart attack. He was 51. Gandolfini will be forever known for his portrayal of mob boss Tony Soprano on the seminal HBO series The Sopranos, which won him three Emmy Awards. He remained in business with the pay cable network and was in pre-production on a new limited series, Criminal Justice, in which he was to play the lead, one of several projects he had in the works.

Such sad news. Guy was mad humble and a gentleman in real life. It goes to show you how good of an actor her was, in that he mastered the role of someone who was the total opposite of him. RIP

Umm, already been said but I always thought they left it to your own interpretation.

Said it before and Ill say it again, feels like losing an uncle.

This is one of the most :ardy: things I'm about. The ending is left for your own interpretation. There is no finality to it just in case they were to revisit it again down the line. Almost every actor who was apart of the show has stated he is alive. Maybe that's just wishful thinking because they want to get $ but other than Chase alluding to some shit this whole ending has been ranked up there with Loose Change as one of the greatest conspiracy theories ever.

Everyone is conflicted because you know it would have been more artistic and complete if he died. The other half of us know we never wanted it to end.
