A Guide To The Stupidest "Sopranos" Alternate Ending Videos Ever

People are still reeling from The Sopranos finale. I'm just as consumed with it as I was last week. In fact, the way I viewed the ending has fundamentally changed. First I thought David Chase (the show's creator and writer) wanted us to think that Tony would live the rest of his life looking over his shoulder, waiting to be whacked. But after reading this dissection by Gawker, Bob Harris [updated: the Gawker piece was a parody of Bob Harris' article. Duh!]I now believe that Tony Soprano got whacked. Like the article says, it's all there -- and it is. Tony Soprano is dead. Long Live Tony Soprano.

The one thing that's been really bothering me is the crappy "alternate endings" that everybody and their mother is making right now. It seems like the only entry requirement is iMovie, and this is usually a good thing, but the crop of videos out there that parody the final moments of the Soprano family is just plane horrible and lazy.

Here is a guide to The Stupidest "Sopranos" Alternate Ending Videos Ever.

Note: All this videos are from YouTube and I've kept their original titles.

 1. Sopranos ending extended by Jake2112
 

Laziness Factor: 7

Why It's Stupid: Instead of a cut to black, it cuts to Journey concert footage and then back to picture stills of the Soprano family. What point the author was trying to make with this video I have no freaking clue, except maybe that Journey looked really funny on stage.

2. Unseen Sopranos Ending by ThePeoplesCandidate

 

Laziness Factor: 9

Why It's Stupid: Starts of with black video then cuts to a picture still of the family at the restaurant. Next we hear a voice over that says "Hey, Gabagool!" We also hear that Steve Jobs wants to take away everybody's iMovie software and pretend he never invented it.

3. Sopranos Alternate Ending by convergenceny

 

Laziness Factor: 4 

Why It's Stupid: Instead of cutting to black it cuts to a shot of an exploding Earth while Journey plays in the background. Does Earth explode because Tony got shot? Or because people were angry at the way the series ending? Or just because the creator of this video was messing around with Affect Effects? We have no idea.

4. Dear Tony - A Sopranos Ending by Chaos278

 

Laziness Factor: 6 

Why It's Stupid: The OC Season 2 Finale + The Sopranos Series Finale = I have no f**king clue why this was made.

5. The Sopranos Leaked Cut Ending by JMcGuirk72

 
Laziness Factor: 3

Why It's Stupid: Adding gunshot sounds and light flicker to the scene can't mask the fact that the guy who made this really has no imagination.

Of course, there are other craptacular alternate endings out there roaming around, but one can only take so much of this. In case this wasn't enough for you, can look at more right here.  I dare you to find an alternate ending this is actually good/funny. I dare you!
