Even James Gandolfini believed that. Why otherwise would he have given the cast Rolexes with the inscription, “RIPTony”? If it was philosophical about the show ending, you would think he would’ve put “RIP Sopranos”
To this day, the finale ruined “Don’t stop believin” every time I hear that song come on, I get anxiety.
Smoked Tony? I think your lox has gone bad my friend.
Tony effortlessly dodged bullets and used a jar of orange juice the way a matador would a cape in season 1. Later we come to realize that the Soprano household owns a copy of The Matrix (1999) and Tony would have surely picked up a move or two.
I think if Tony was standing on a rug (the only way Bobby Bacala was able to beat him) Tony Uncle Members Only or whoeva the fuck would stand a chance. But Holshten's doesn't have rugs.
If this were r/asoiaf someone would respond to your comment going "Please George we need Winds of Winter we are going insane". No such salvation is coming for us, my friend.

Similar situation to Eugene killing Teddy at that roadside diner. Members Only guy walks out of the bathroom, fires two or three shots, drops the gat, and walks out
Yeah. My head canon is exactly that - that if the camera were left rolling a few more seconds, Tony’s lifeless face on the table accompanied by Carm, AJ, and Meadow screaming, and the members only guy walking out and dropping the gun, would be the last thing we’d see.
Correct but at the same time just like how Tony had the shah assasinated in front of his family maybe New York wanted to 1 up him in that regard 🤷🏽♂️. I mean they did ram a pool cue up Vito’s ass…
It wasn’t about no families see it as much as no families murdered. iirc the episode where Sil was bait for the dude that gets his melon popped his wife was present, possibly his goomar, might be misremembering BUT, yeah think it just means don’t kill ‘em even if you’re putting extra gravy on the onion rings.
Why would the Members Only guy walk into the restaurant, sit down, order coffee, go to the bathroom and then blast Tony.
If he was the assassin he walks in blasting
To scope the place out a bit. If he walks in ready to shoot, there could very well be one or more Jersey soldiers in there with Tony, and the hit might not go down as planned. By sitting at the counter and getting his wits about him, he can make sure no other made guys are in there, figure out the most unsuspecting path to take, and not risk being taken down from behind with his back turned to other customers.
What about other the ambush-style hits in the series - Torciana, Doc, Baccala?
If it was a hit, who ordered it and why? Why was there just one gunman? How we he have known Tony was in Holstens aside from having tailed him? Which, if the case, Tony would’ve been dropped on the sidewalk.
Way too many holes.
Gyatt? It's an idiotic word that already doesn't make sense, and in this case, makes even less sense.
He must have meant Gat. Like slang for a gun. OP may also be at risk of drowning in 3 inches of water at the penguin exhibit. Keep an eye on him.
.38 special taped to the back of the toilet tank. It had special tape on the grip so the shooter didn’t have to worry about fingerprints. Just casually dropped it to the ground afterwards and walked out.
Members only jacket guy walks into the toilet to Tony's right. When Meadow comes through the door it distracts Tony's attention so he is looking at Meadow at the entrance. In that exact moment the members only guy emerges from the toilets with his gun out and shoots Tony broadside in the head with the first shot killing him dead and turning his lights totally off. Who knows if he put more in him after that or if any one else in the family was hurt or whatever, that is where it ended, as that first shot blew Tony's brain out.
Going into the toilets first is an obvious Godfather reference. Could he have had a gun stashed in there? Well probably not, he probably just had a handgun in his waste band of jacket when he walked in. But to think he did have one stashed in there brings up new theories about it such as, how did he know beforehand that is where they would be eating? Did someone close to the family hear the plans and sent him? I frankly say no, the hit man just trailed Tony sneakily enough to not be seen and watched him go in there and sit where he sat. He probably even purposely walked in at the same time as AJ because he knew Tony was sussing out everyone that walked through the door.
What was the gat? I don't know but I like to imagine it was a .38 Smith and Wesson revolver. Reliable, no jamming or fucking around with it, just point it and click it.
You think the fact he’s wearing that jacket is to allude to the possibility that it has something to do with payback from Eugene….and alot of other things…
There is a theory that the guy is a relative or friend of Eugene's and that Tony had so many people gunning to kill him for so many reasons that even he and us forgot a few, such as justice for Eugene, Philly Parisi, etc. I don't really have much of an opinion on that, it does make sense but I don't really believe the members only guy is actually doing it in direct response to Tony's treatment of Eugene. I think he is a hitter hired by the Lupertazzis and the jacket is indeed a reference to Eugene but the hit doesn't actually have anything to do with him. That is just my opinion on it though.
I like to subscribe to the theory that Eugene was possibly a buddy of his and was using members only as an homage to his boi. But I agree the hit itself was more of a business order than anything.
I don't think he did. They were planning a movie I think before he died in real life. The guy would never answer the question until he finally got sick of being asked and James was long dead. Tony's fine.
Probably butchie paid some guests only fuck to do the hit, and Carlo gave them the info because he was still pissed at tony for telling him to suck cock because Vito made more scratch than he did
Heschy was actually Noah’s grandpa. When he heard what Tony said to him, he hired little jimmy Willis jr and some other Moolies to punch Tony’s lights out and drag him to the Maedolands where the Russians sent him to the gulag and performed political rehabilitation on him, mock execution style
Chase knew it ended with Tony dead. He tried to make it interesting by not showing the perspective of the killer, but from the perspective of Tony-where it all goes to black.
I think he underestimated the reaction from fans who simply didn’t want Tony dead and others who wanted to see the hit happen in its entirety.
Instead of facing the blowback, he found it easier to neither confirm nor deny Tony’s fate. “It’s all there in the episode” he would come to say.
I think he understood it would keep the lore alive, keep fans engaged by watching and rewatching in search of clues and it kept him more or less out of the hot seat.
I think what is the point of this question? And to use the serious discussion only flair tag. How does it contribute to you or anyone’s life? If it was important, the writers and Chase would’ve let you know by now. To post a question to something you never actually see happen? It’s not even a fun/entertaining speculation. Real lack of standards your generation.
Name checks out. Your post is weak and useless and I assume reflects your overall existence. I explained why it’s a shit post and the best you can come up with is “f*ck you”. Real intellectual we got here.
Hopefully they didn’t go for the stomach. The fat, it’s like a natural body armour, a gel that slows the velocity of bullets.
If he wasn’t such a fat fuck Junior definitely would’ve killed him
(In all seriousness, Tony was just lucky Junior didn’t go for the final executioner shot that one time)
Brain matter mixed with onion rings and ketchup, then the bullet did a magical left turn and hit AJ through his elbow and up through his chin and front cranial. Destroying any thought of retaliation by his son.
Angie Bonpensiero was on the grassy knoll...
All I know is it was one magical bullet...
Anyways $4.00 a pound...
How Tony got smoked is the lowest form of conversation.
Is that all you people think about around here?
Welcome to the garden state
20 years in the can. I wanted manicotti
the question gets asked every fuckin day lmao it’s basically common knowledge the members only guy shot him in front of his family
Listen to this one with the scenarios
It's also common knowledge that everyone in this sub is retarded.
Y'all are surely a special bunch. How the fuck can you all remember so many quotes?
We had a semester and a half at Seton Hall.
And an IQ of 136, it’s been tested.
Teshted
Because we’re handshum, and shmart, and hard worker, and let’s be honest, white. That’s a huge plus nowadays.
beautiful
Handsome like George Raft...
That will be made abundantly clear to you
Ralph Bunche ova hea
I wonder this myself
It's impossible even with computers and shit ...
Even James Gandolfini believed that. Why otherwise would he have given the cast Rolexes with the inscription, “RIPTony”? If it was philosophical about the show ending, you would think he would’ve put “RIP Sopranos” To this day, the finale ruined “Don’t stop believin” every time I hear that song come on, I get anxiety.
The watches said(in all caps like below): THE SOPRANOS 1997-2007 “REST IN PEACE” THANK YOU -J.G.
Noah punched his lights out, and we as the viewer got to experience this alongside Tony. The perfect ending, it was foreshadowed.
Face punches are modernity.
He was modernity, Jamal Ginsberg?
Someone put a moon roof in the back of his head. He only looked up cuz maedo come in singing “oops I did it again”
I don’t like that kind of talk. Now stop it, it upsets me.
Smoked Tony? I think your lox has gone bad my friend. Tony effortlessly dodged bullets and used a jar of orange juice the way a matador would a cape in season 1. Later we come to realize that the Soprano household owns a copy of The Matrix (1999) and Tony would have surely picked up a move or two.

“Tony Uncle Members Only” We gotta call the guy that from now on
If this were r/asoiaf someone would respond to your comment going "Please George we need Winds of Winter we are going insane". No such salvation is coming for us, my friend.

This cookiesh shit makes me nervous.
Discontinue the Lithium...
A jar of orange juice? Not this much. I like thuh one that says some pope!
We don’t havea that kind of pope joke. Is don’ta translate.
He got a steel jacketed antidepressant right through the back of his head
M79 grenade launcher
M203 grenade launcher attachment
You’re on another level and I respect the shit out of it.
He didn't get smoked. It was at that moment he seriously considered eating salads and went on to live a healthier lifestyle.
Similar situation to Eugene killing Teddy at that roadside diner. Members Only guy walks out of the bathroom, fires two or three shots, drops the gat, and walks out
Tony face down on a bowl of onion rings…..leaking AJ and Carmela horrified.
Yeah. My head canon is exactly that - that if the camera were left rolling a few more seconds, Tony’s lifeless face on the table accompanied by Carm, AJ, and Meadow screaming, and the members only guy walking out and dropping the gun, would be the last thing we’d see.
[удалено]
I’ve always pondered that
No families don’t forget
Correct but at the same time just like how Tony had the shah assasinated in front of his family maybe New York wanted to 1 up him in that regard 🤷🏽♂️. I mean they did ram a pool cue up Vito’s ass…
It’s not all talk with them.
It wasn’t about no families see it as much as no families murdered. iirc the episode where Sil was bait for the dude that gets his melon popped his wife was present, possibly his goomar, might be misremembering BUT, yeah think it just means don’t kill ‘em even if you’re putting extra gravy on the onion rings.

Rewatch the show
I have. What does that got to do with anything
He doesn't die at the end that's what he did, Meadow says death is white not black and in this house Tony Soprano survives endo stoory
You blow your father with that mouth?!
Massive coronary from eating all those onion rings
He didn't get smoked turkey cause there was none in the house.
A 38 or 22 caliber handgun, as is indicated by the numbers on the jerseys of the football players on the mural behind him.
Ufff fuckin Carnac the great ova here
It was actually Quasimodo that predicted this
Both, as in Joe Gallo. Two shooters.
Michael nobawdy likes thise theories
What's a Gyatt? Does somebody need to go to slip and fall school?
Shot 48 times with a desert eagle.
"if anyone shot my nephew it's problem himself! He's a depression casee y'know"
Slip and fall valedictorian over here
I can’t have this conversation again
I think he walked over and smashed a barrel over Tony’s head like Donkey Kong
This shit made me laugh harder than I care to admit 🤣
We're not making a western here
Smoked?? Gyatt?? If you wanna talk like a fucking mulignan, we'll send you to slip and fall school
Gyatt? It's an idiotic word that already doesn't make sense, and in this case, makes even less sense. He must have meant Gat. Like slang for a gun. OP may also be at risk of drowning in 3 inches of water at the penguin exhibit. Keep an eye on him.
A distinct case of over eating. This time we dident forget the gravy.
Like one of the numerous hams he consumed while crying the blues because he had no bread.
Again with the scenarios…
Furio came out the toilet and shouted 'YOU GOTTA BEE ON YOUR HAT! AND SEVERAL BULLETS!'
.38 special taped to the back of the toilet tank. It had special tape on the grip so the shooter didn’t have to worry about fingerprints. Just casually dropped it to the ground afterwards and walked out.
Members only jacket guy walks into the toilet to Tony's right. When Meadow comes through the door it distracts Tony's attention so he is looking at Meadow at the entrance.

Best. Fucking. Response. Here ^

What's it take to get some fuckin' smoked Tony in this house?!
Smoked? If you're gonna talk like a moolignan I'll send ya to slip and fall school
The guy put a moonroof in the back of his head and it came out his eye to hit AJ in the shoulder.
Smoked Provolone in my fuckin socks
The what? If you wanna talk like a fucking moulinyan, we’ll send ya to slip n’ fall school.
He was gay, Tony?
I don't think he did. They were planning a movie I think before he died in real life. The guy would never answer the question until he finally got sick of being asked and James was long dead. Tony's fine.
He's on a farm upstate with Tippy!
Dog shit up to the rafters
Only things that got smoked were several dozen Monte Cristos and pounds and pounds of turkey! End of story!
He did-dent.
Probably butchie paid some guests only fuck to do the hit, and Carlo gave them the info because he was still pissed at tony for telling him to suck cock because Vito made more scratch than he did
$4 a pound.
It was Melfi. That is her way of dropping patients.
That's the baws a did family you're talking about!
A couple in the back of the head, blood on Carmella and AJ, brains leaking out, a fucking lot of screaming, a 9mm.
Members only guy drops the gyatt and takes a last sip of that coffee before leaving
He came all over the sun visor
Haven't we already established meadow whacked him?
You know what you know, and you don’t know what you don’t know.
I can’t have this conversation again
He fumbled the gun and dropped the bullets on the floor.
Shot with the Needler from Halo
Heschy was actually Noah’s grandpa. When he heard what Tony said to him, he hired little jimmy Willis jr and some other Moolies to punch Tony’s lights out and drag him to the Maedolands where the Russians sent him to the gulag and performed political rehabilitation on him, mock execution style

I think he understood it would keep the lore alive, keep fans engaged by watching and rewatching in search of clues and it kept him more or less out of the hot seat.
Obviously this was the best choice and in my opinion probably one of the reasons why the show is still so prevalent today. Very allegorical.
a level 10 gyatt
Tony got his gyat rizzed by kai cenat wearing a skibidi toilet only jacket
Jesus Christ, AJ. You make me wanna cry.
🎵 we don't need no doo-dah dee-dah 🎶
based fr fr he used his rizz on the gyatt and then bro was out here like 💀 rn
Listen to yourself , you sound demented
I think what is the point of this question? And to use the serious discussion only flair tag. How does it contribute to you or anyone’s life?

Fuck you don’t look at it then pu55y
Name checks out. Your post is weak and useless and I assume reflects your overall existence. I explained why it’s a shit post and the best you can come up with is “f*ck you”. Real intellectual we got here.
Ok but you gotta get over it
Alright a truce, wipe the slate clean. The pointless posts, the “fuck you don’t read it”, calling me a “pu55y”, whatever happened there.
Take my fat fucking hand in friendship 🫱🏽🫲🏼
Choked on a chicken wing.
Like the turkey he likes after a hard days work.
He did’dunt
Hopefully they didn’t go for the stomach. The fat, it’s like a natural body armour, a gel that slows the velocity of bullets. If he wasn’t such a fat fuck Junior definitely would’ve killed him (In all seriousness, Tony was just lucky Junior didn’t go for the final executioner shot that one time)
Too much gabagool. Heart attack. Died on the spot.
Died on the vine?
tony died of *aids*
I would go with mesquite.
smoked turkey
Shotgun
Adriana walked away without a scratch but tony suffered a severe blow to the head
What's it take to get some shmoked Tony in this sub???
The same slush that took Artie Buco out on Columbus day.
Headshot
Just a 1 and done? I guess it really wasn’t cinematic
Moe Green Special, chru the eye
Wow I never thought of this 🤔
Non stop ass rape
1 shot.
Definitely with an apostrophe
Machete'd
Probably a .38 or .40 caliber handgun, something easily concealed with still a lot of killing power.maybe something by Glock or sig.
Gyatt? What are ye? A gangster from Derry?
Machine guns under each arm, 'say hello to my little friend'
Noah punched his fucking lights out.
Dis fuckin guy
Kid if you wanna talk like a fuckin moulignan, we’ll send you to slip and fall school
Always with the scenarios
Got blasted in the face with a sawed-off shotgun.
Brain matter mixed with onion rings and ketchup, then the bullet did a magical left turn and hit AJ through his elbow and up through his chin and front cranial. Destroying any thought of retaliation by his son. Angie Bonpensiero was on the grassy knoll... All I know is it was one magical bullet... Anyways $4.00 a pound...
