Description:
We are in a bad age, an age defined by decadence and isolation and false alliances. But will it be remembered for its vices? for tech giants or political siren songs? Maybe, but maybe not. The 19th century was in some ways defined by industrialization, and imperial conquest. But the 19th century also had Beethoven. Where is our Beethoven? We have the bad, should not some good come too?

    Love the detail of the giant "$199" ad on one side of the newspaper and the news on the other half. Right as Tony asks "what do we got?" he turns the "standards and pride" news side away in favor of the "money" side.

    Dreyfus is so proud of the fact that they didn’t achieve general AI back in the 70s. But what about now? Recent advancements have shown that, given enough data (and advanced enough hardware to allow it) something resembling general AI seems to be possible (ala chatGPT).

      Likewise.Too bad he couldn't stay this size.Well to be fair he did lose weight but gained it all back because the studio felt the audience wouldn't be accepting of skinny tony and plus too according to an interview says that it's easier for james to play him as a fat guy.Gone way too soon but I'm happy we at least got imo the best tv character of the best tv show in television history.

    I know Tony is just self-pitying that he didn't get to be a mid-level mobster in the era where they could afford to do big scams and rackets, take out/beat up anyone he wanted, and skirt the cops with no fear. But as someone born in 2001, I somehow also get the feeling I came in at the end, after the best times to be American are over and that only the downfall and bad times are here to come in my lifetime.

      Born in 96 brotha…Join the Club. Ironically that’s an episode name from season 6A. Back to your first point though… That’s a massive message of this series that makes us correlate or relate so much to a murderous mobster like Tony. He’a still a man. He’s still an American like many of us and overall he’s still human like all of us. Keep your head up bruv. You aren’t alone with that thought.

    The ongoing theme I found to fit the most is decay. The decay of the mob, the decay of the American dream, the moral and physical decay of individuals. David Chase mentioned once how the characters in the show become fatter and more tired as the seasons go by. Their moral corruption manifests through their physical deterioration. The more I re-watch it, the more I think it was a show about nothing in particular. It was a slice of life, a specific moment in time of these characters' lives. We're captivated by it, we feel like we experience it with them, and then it's over quicker than expected.
