New trailer!

Lots of new stuff, there are 2 versions of the trailer, one is longer with a little bit lower quality, and the other is a shorter version with better quality.

Both can be found here.



Here's a quick recap of the trailer, courtesy of The Sopranos board over at TVw/oPity.

Here's a transcript of the trailer that aired before The Sopranos rerun:

Wide shot of Tony in his bathrobe, by the pool.
Carmela VO: "The minute I met tony, I know who that guy was. I don't know if I loved him in spite of it, or because of it. I would go to my priest and I would cry and say how bad I felt, but that was bullshit."

THE SOPRANOS
The New Season
MARCH

Also, this trailer confirms the rumor that Treach from Naughty by Nature will be guest starring. Bobby can be seen sitting in a car with Treach exchanging a bundle of cash.



I'm also gonna include some analysis by members of the Sopranoland board. They had some interesting things to say.

-JT Dolan's back in town, and looks like he's getting slapped around big time. Could his appearance have something to do with Ben Kingsley playing himself?

-Glad to see some more time being spent on the Stugots, looks like the family's going on a fishing trip, something we haven't seen since season two (and that was just Tony and AJ).

-This carnival setting seems to be of big importance, all the major characters are there. (If I had to guess, I'd say this was episode 9 "The Ride")

-Interesting to see Vito, Paulie, and Silvio all eating in Tony's house.

-At the 1:44 mark, it looks like that's the new actress who's playing Angie Bonpensiero. She looks enough like her, so this change doesn't seem that jarring.

A side note: Just because Carmela says "A hired you to do a job" most likely doesn't mean she's hiring Tony's thugs to kill somebody. First, she would never have to hire someone, Tony would probably just get it done. Second, no way she could live with something like that. She's probably just talking to a plumber or something.

Vito, Silvio and Paulie at Tony's home. The kitchen looks curiously empty (no stuff on the counter).

AJ running to the front door. I looked at the other door behind him. It seems to be a security type of door. Maybe AJ trying to flee re-hab.

Uncle Junior. He appears very, very with it. Possibly was faking regarding his mental state.

I think that Bobby Bacala could get a bigger role it seems. At 1:49 he is fueding with Paulie with everyone holding him back. Also near the end of the trailer Tony says "You gonna take care of his kids after he is gone?". He could be saying that to Janice and referring to Bacala.

if you look very closely, in the still picture where Chrissy is shooting out the window, in the mirror you can see its Tony driving.

It seems linked to the still picture where Chrissy is pointing the gun at a few dudes and Tony is loading the car in the background.

It seemed to me Bobby was looking and shouting past Paulie to someone out of frame.

That said, Bobby's show of anger was quite surprising. We've really only seen him become angry (as opposed to disappointed or disapproving) twice, once to Janice's face when she was going on and on about how he should forget about Karen and he told her to "shut the f@ck up" and once when Tony drove off after a litany of insults about Bobby's weight.

But this scene in the preview was of another magnitude. He was showing the kind of aggressive, unmitigated anger that we're used to seeing from Tony, Paulie, Christopher, Janice et.al. It must have been something very personal for him to have reacted that way, maybe something involving one of his kids.

It looks like something happens to Paulie's mom. The scene with him covering his eyes in apparent tears can only relate to her.

In the scene where Tony is holding the baby, the slow-mo camera work and utter look of joyousness on Tony's face actually seems quite strange here...would/could Tony ever display such love and emotion for anykid other than his own or indeed if it was his grandchild? Both of those scenarios seem unlikely given the time-scale so could the child be the rumoured Janice/Bobby child or even could this be a dream sequence (given the camera-work) where Tony is infact the baby having paternal love granted unto it which he never had?

The 'feinting' of Ginny in this sequence is very interesting/ominous and obviously takes place at the wedding - what on earth could happen for her to feint??....A revelation by someone, an attack, heat exhaustion??!

In the scene where Vito, Paulie, and Silvio are in Tony's kitchen, Vito looks FAR too comfortble on the couch to suggest that Tony is there also as he is 'sitting in Tony's spot' as it were and with Vito sitting there tucking into a bowl of food in a tracksuit chillingly seems to manifest Tony himself.

Also, the fact neither Vito, Pauli or Sil are looking at each other seems chilling to me.

If they are comfortable enough to be eating then why would they not all be eating together?...why is vito in the longue and Sil in the kitchen?

The flower arrangements may also suggest they are there as a result of Tonys alleged accident, perhaps to visit Carmella but inevtably Carmella, would indeed play the hostess to her guests, and they wouldnt tuck in themselves and wouldnt be so liberal when visiting, at a time when if Tony is indeed in hospital, to make themselves comfortable lounging on a sofa, when surely it would be more polite and repectful to sit at the kitchen table (hope that makes sense!!)

If Carmela isnt there (which she doesnt appear to be) then all the more confusion as to why they would even be at the house - i mean, how many times have we seen Pauli/Sil..let alone Vito at Tonys house in such a social context?.... I canonly recall the time of the Junior attempted whacking when Tony hurt his ear...but even then they wouldnt be helping themselves to the Soprano fridge!!

The fact they are all looking in different directions and Vito seems as a manifestation of Tony....could this be a dream??

The waterfront shot with Paulie and Patsy gets me very excited. With Patsy in the shot(perhaps still reeling from his brothers murder) and Paulie growing worried over his NY goofs, i had wondered if this was them talking to NY or the feds but a later shot of Pauli holding a gun to someones head at what seems to be the same waterside venue has me a little stumped!

There's one shot where Tony is being handed an envelope of what looks like money in a place that looks like a funeral home. Could this perhaps allude to Junior's death, or maybe someone elses?

When Junior is seen in his tan jumpsuit, I had originally thought this was Junior in a hospital, yet the breezeblock wall in the B/G and Tonys POV which resembles a 'visisting time' setting would suggest it is Junior in prison...yet if this is prison and Tony is visting, wouldnt Junior be in a traditional Orange jumpsuit - could it be a prison hospital? Junior seem weak in the shot.

In the shot where Tony is slapped, this was the most exciting revelation from the trailer for me!! I know someone else here mentioned that the bald person slapping Tony was Artie but look.....the orange robe with red sashes (spelling).... this screams buddhist/shaolin monk!!!!

Also look at Tonys reaction in the shot and in the actual video you will see how quick he actually recoils from the slap - his reaction and facial expression seem very 'slapstick' almost and his ending facial expression looks EXTREMELY reminiscient of his facial expression in TEST DREAM when he discovered Carmine in his bed so i imagine this is a dream sequence as how would Tony really visit a monk conciously - could the Buddhist monk have anything to do with Gloria as she was Buddhist.......also for me, Buddhist/Shaolin Monks always seem to suggest.represent a spiritual awakening/desire to become pure....all aspects which Tony would inevitably seem to harbour after.

In the dark scene where Vito is getting punched, Well done to the poster who ID'ed Vito here as this would tie in with the other pics released on Vitos own site of him with heavy eye makeup - i was wondering with Chase's insistence on keeping things under wraps this year how Joe Gannascolli would be allowed to post those pics on his site but perhaps the fact that the trailer is now released allows him to do so.

In the scene where Paulie is crying, This seems to be taken from outside of Paulie's condo and it seems the strain of something is taking its toll. Could it be the NY thing? Is Tony onto him - alot of the seems in the trailer point to Paulie seemingly becoming more desparate and ruthless - the stabbing which is infact (when considering all the murders we have seen over the years) looks rather brutal, his panic-run through the industrial looking corridor, his look of distain/disgust at his own mother which is first....Paulies is one of the storylines i am most looking forward to in S6!

The promo picture, which has that ominous shot of the Urn on top of Carmella's mantlepiece, seems to hint at Junior's death. In Season 5 (episode 2, I believe), Junior talks about his creamation, and he specifically reminds Tony about his desire for his ashes to be "placed in an urn on Carmella's mantle, surrounded be family." Well, that is the exact image on the promo.
