Sopranos

Also, when Paulie ran over Christopher's yard, he ran over a wooden duck.
 
 I like the Janice betrayal angle.  His mother and uncle have betrayed him so far, but his sister has been loyal.  Bobby getting pinched would be just the thing to send her farther over the edge.
 
 I don't think it'll be too over the top though.  I think it'll be subtle.  I only say that b/c the creator was talking about how gangster movies always ended with the boss either dead or in jail, and he wanted something different.

also, affirmative on the roulette table observation.

i know i asked about predictions, but didnt state any of my own.
 
   its because i have NO idea!! i cant imagine this show is actually ending...there are a few things though, as people have touched on that need to be tied up, i tried to take a look character by character and if they need to be "taken care of" or no.
 
   AJ, Paulie, Phil, Janice and Bobby all seem to need some closure.  Carmella and Tony, of course, but i still wouldnt doubt they remain alive and out of prison in 3 weeks.
 
   most of the other characters are either dead or really havent played a part in this most recent season, therefore leaving no real storyline hanging (Meadow, Silvio and Junior).
 
   so yeah, AJ and Phil Leotardo will be big ole parts of the last 3, Paulie should be too and perhaps Janice and Bobby, though something tells me they just may leave them be.
 
   i think Paulie lives, and Phil is a goner soon.

yes!

For what its worth, watching the episode with Closed Captioning turned on the quote was "I get it" - clearly captioning can be wrong but thats what it said.
 
 During the roulette scene he said "he's dead"

I had a whole conversation with someone the other day about the ducks. We can't agree on what they really stand for. Any thoughts?

  Aside from the AJ prediction, I think those other two are correct.  That's what I've been thinking as well.
 
 I really want the last scene to be the ducks flying back into the pool.  
 
 These past two episodes are some of the best television I've ever seen.  I will be sad to see this show go.

Tony's penis.

The synopsis on HBO.com says that he says "I get it."

 any predictions for the last 3 shows?

- Paulie (who has been GREAT this season) doesn't seem very long for this earth.  Probably at the hands of the NY family.
 
 - Bobby gets pinched for killing the guy in the laundromat and he and Janice rat out Tony.
 
 - AJ commits suicide. [/b]

you were *almost* prophetic...

The preview for the last two shows leaves at least 2 for 3 a strong possibility.

I'm still letting this episode soak in.
 
 wow.

[lbcardoni]

I was underwhelmed with last night's episode.  With only two episodes left, I think they have a lot of story lines to cover.  
 
 Is the finale going to be longer than one hour?

Almost...I was wondering is he would pull a "Christopher" on his own son too.
 
 Why will they not let the Middle East/terrorism plotline die?  The meeting with the FBI guys, the multiple references to Iran/Iraq, AJ surfing on aljazeera.com.
 
 Either Chase is trying to show how the war on trrr is somehow symbolic to Tony's life, or the final episode will end with a mushroom cloud over NYC.

Awesome episode!
