well after viewing it yet again, and pondering the end of the Sopranos I understad it now.
It is WE, the audience, who got whacked.
After having followed the lives of tomny soprano and his two families, we were treated to 10 amazing tension building minutes, showing us how Tony Soprano REALLY lives, jumping at every sound, anyone can be an enemy, anyone could be a cop, constant paranoia, to thepoint where it feels like you are having an attack of some kind, and just as it builds and builds *CUT TO BLACK*
no sound, no light. It was not Tony who got it. It was the audience. We all got whacked. It came out of nowhere and with no warning and it was all just black.
excellent!
