I think this is a great episode, a great episode for a lot of characters. It's Artie's best that's for sure. Also the little we get of Little Carmine is great. Him being like only person who asks if Chris is ok with drinking is a good showcase of despite him not being the smartest he is quite an emotionally intelligent guy. Also speaking of Chris, notice the presents he got for Tony, A women's watch, perfume, a doggy bag. Those gifts don't really suit Tony but they do fit Adriana who he clearly is still mourning. This is also Benny's best episode I will say. I do like Benny out of Chris's sidekick's he's probably the smartest.

- THE Sir Ben Kingsley (2006) How is it that Ben Kingsley is incredible in everything he is ever in?!

Chris you punched Bogart’s wife!

I think this might be one of my favorite episodes. Ben Kingsley and Lauren Bacall as themselves, the 'insider' look into Hollywood excess, the fight between Artie and Benny. Artie's final dig against Benny is something else... "have a Martina, it goes down real easy". This is a character that has had plot armor for 6 seasons, and they really played with that idea in this episode. The actor is great, he had so much screen time in this one and was giving it everything for a nice little contained character arc. Ben Kingsley had some great lines and nice uncomfortable comedy interacting with the mob. This might be the most unusual episode for A/B plots. It's a great example of how the Sopranos goes in strange directions and takes you on little journeys that you didn't see coming. With a mob show you expect it to be all about the hit on Rusty, but in this show that was just a footnote compared to everything else going on.

Artie is essentially Tony’s Frank Sinatra. Tony won’t let anyone kill Artie despite Artie repeatedly acting stupid around the crew because Artie is tied to Tony’s childhood and represents a piece of Tony’s innocence that still exists outside the mob, if anything happened to Artie, Tony would lose another part of himself. The irony is that Artie desperately wants Tony’s life, while Tony secretly envies Artie’s normal life. Artie sees the money, power, women, and respect Tony has, but he doesn’t see the violence, paranoia, betrayal, and misery that come with it. Artie spends so much of the series trying to prove that he can operate in Tony’s world, only to repeatedly demonstrate that he doesn’t belong there, while Tony, despite constantly getting frustrated with him, Tony keeps giving him a way back to his own world. That makes this episode the perfect culmination of Artie’s arc. He doesn’t become Tony, and he never truly belonged in Tony’s world, he returns to being a chef and living his ordinary life, the very life he spent years envying Tony for not having.

Bloodrayne. Though to be fair, no one was good in that. It is one of the worst movies ever made.

how is "alright" a vague answer lol the show doesn't really have an issue with censoring stuff. they showed full on sexual assault and more graphic hits before. the hit scene here was probably just a stylistic thing or the old man has hearing issues. he's also an older captain that was almost boss and is part of one of the most powerful mob families in the country so he probably wasn't expecting a hit to ever get him at this point of his life and when there's no active mob war.

Even though it was not smart at all I love how petty Artie was with Benny at the end. Artie is frustrating but damnit I just like seeing him try to get one over on the douches.

But "BloodRayne: The Third Reich" is the good one, right?

#SundayRundown Man I forgot how incredibly awkward & uncomfortable this episode is. It's like watching an episode of The Office. Artie gets the KO & redeems his humiliating loss to the scammer Jean-Philippe in 4X6. Artie is a very flawed person with deep insecurity being the biggest one. Yet somehow there's something endearing about him. The moment near the end when he pulls out his old composition book, carefully folds back the label with name & cooks the rabbit feels cathartic though like he's rediscovering himself.
