The Sopranos: The Complete Series [DVD] [2007]

Product Information

A Sit-Down with The Sopranos (SD, 14 min.) - The cast members of the Soprano family discuss the how and why they wound up doing the show, and what makes it so great. There is a great deal of attention paid to the show's humor and how it is balanced with the violence and drama. Early in the first episode, Tony Soprano (James Gandolfini) remarks to Dr. Melfi (Lorraine Bracco), the therapist he recently began seeing, how he feels as though he got in at the end of things. Obviously, he's talking about how the mafia's glory days were over, that he and everyone else still clinging to an outdated concept of organized crime were just fooling themselves. It would never again be as good as it was before he got there. Dr. Melfi's response was, mafia aside, a lot of Americans felt the same way.

The Music of The Sopranos (SD, 17 min.) - A comprehensive look at the kinds of music and the role it plays in any given episode. The Series is very good, the box is nice. Unfortunately one Disc was missing and the Dealer refused to deliver for demanding it two weeks late. In Germany (and it is a german company) you have 6 Months time to tell it, but they don't care. So good series, buy it from someone else. Extras: DVD 9, Language(s): English, Hard of Hearing Subtitles: English, Subtitles: English, Interactive Menu, Screen ratio 1:1.78, Dolby Digital 5.1

The show itself is great. I haven't finished watching it yet, but the first 2 seasons are excellent. If you like crime/mafia-related movies, with good characters, good action (and drama), and also good storytelling, then I would recommend buying The Sopranos box-set. And through it all, through the unforgettable and memorably ambiguous episodes like 'Pine Barrens,' or the emotionally devastating 'Long Term Parking,' 'The Sopranos' excelled in crafting moments of genuine art and genuine emotion that contrasted (or was perhaps enhanced by) the gruesome violence and other prurient details lingering around the edges of any given episode. Perhaps, though, the series is best remembered for its consistent dreamlike quality – and love of dream sequences, for that matter. The sixth and final season begins with Tony spending the better part of two episodes in a coma, living the life of another man and ultimately being welcomed to accept death. He declines. Every episode ever from The Sopranos plus 2 brand new discs of Sopranos extras. Out only 12 months after the previous Complete Sopranos and loaded with much more extras. And because of that, it all comes down to people clinging to the idea of a "better time" and maybe even a "better place," even though doing became yet another destructive force. It consumed the individual (and, in this case, the violent, insular community he's a part of) faster than the unavoidable tide of change – or, in the case of 'The Sopranos,' the inevitable end of it all.

Here's everything you need to know!The Real Deal (SD, 5 min.) - A featurette with critics and writers discussing the importance of The Sopranos. Apart from all six seasons of The Sopranos, Hulu has an enviable catalogue of movies (including The Devil Wears Prada, Mission Impossible, The Silence of the Lambs) and TV shows (The Handmaid’s Tale, The Mindy Project, and more).

There are a few episodes here and there that are uneven. The most blatant is in the brilliant 'College.' While the Tony and Meadow scenes look tremendous, and may even be some of the best on the disc, the scenes between Carmela and Father Phil (Paul Schulze) tend to run red, and green. Now, granted, Carmela was just getting over the flu in the story, but even then, it is a little off putting. The Sopranos' not only elevated the medium, but also illustrated some of television's distinct strengths over feature films, especially when it came to exploring the lives of its characters and delivering subtlety and nuance over bombast. Moreover, it helped TV to solidify itself as a writer's paradise, a place where those crafting the stories, building the characters, and giving them voices were the creators and supreme masters of their own microcosms. Directors – though some helmed magnificent episodes – came and went throughout the season, but the showrunner always remained. The popularity of the series and recognition of the level of its craft, then, gave rise to the age of the showrunner (or, at the very least, the concept of the showrunner as auteur), making celebrities out of the grand overseers of everything from a New Jersey crime family to a philandering Madison Avenue advertising executive in the '60s to a man literally and metaphorically riddled with malignancy, determined to leave his mark in the world. The opening sequence is more than just the song that will forever be linked to the series; it serves as a template for what the show was about: A world slowly eating away at itself from the inside out. It wasn't just an indictment on morality and greed, consumer and corporate culture, and the franchising and branding of everything down to slightest minutia; it was a heady insight into American life enraptured with the world as it once was, and unable to reconcile itself with the world as it is now. Behind-the-Scenes Featurette (SD, 4 min.) - Another entertaining behind-the-scenes featurette that catches up with he cast and crew in the third season.The Sopranos is the greatest piece of work in any moving image medium that I know of. Quite a statement I know, but hear me out... and I will take you through the [obvious] facts of the case, as well as my own feelings on the matter. Supper with The Sopranos: Two sit-down dinners with the cast and crew of the show discussing the series finale

Meet Tony Soprano (SD, 4 min.) – This is similar to the 'Family Life' featurette with a short look at the character of Tony Soprano. Other elements are balanced nicely throughout the discs as well. Sound effect come in a variety of immersive and straightforward moments that are either subtle and nuance, or blunt like a shotgun to the face. Rear channels often generate strong sense of atmosphere and immersion by bringing large and small elements to the listener's ear. As such, the main floor of the Bada Bing sounds completely different from, say, Dr. Melfi's office or Artie Buco's (John Ventimiglia) Nuovo Vesuvio. In other words, the mix delivers a convincing atmosphere filled with many different components, regardless the location. The Sopranos is hailed as the best television series of all time by TV Guide and Vanity Fair, with Rolling Stone awarding it first place in its 2016 roundup of the 100 greatest TV shows of all time.
