QUOTE (mrpain @ Wednesday, Nov 30 2011, 21:22) Jax can't die. The show is centered around him. Agreed. I liked the episode a lot. Great job of really feeling like it ended in the dead middle of a story. Man, they have really made Tara's life suck ass this season. She hasn't smiled since season 3. That Mongolian man brow of hers has been furled for quite awhile now.

Season 3 Tara wants to be in the club.
Season 4 Tara wants out of the club.

Them crazy women.

QUOTE (GTAvanja @ Thursday, Dec 1 2011, 00:48) Happy was f*ckin' awesome: "He's gotta die. Like, a lot." He's weirder than Tig. It was weird to actually hear him speak! Here's my prediction for the finale: Clay tells Tig that Jax will try to kill him and if he wants to prove his loyalty to the club, he has to kill Jax. Jax goes to hospital to kill Clay. Tig will be waiting in the bathroom of Clay's room at the hospital. Once Jax arrives, Tig kills him. End of season. Eh?

So...new cast of characters in season 5, then? Because that sounds pretty lame. How does Clay explain WHY JAx is coming to kill him? He can't, really.

I think Clay will be waiting for Jax with a secret to share with him (Gemma didn't give Jax ALL of the letters, remember). There has to be some HUGE reason why Jax is going to stay in Charming, and not just to get SAMCRO out of the gun business. I think Clay will point the finger at Gemma. I also think Tara dies, which is the only real reason I can think of that would keep Jax around Charming, it would also push him further into the club (like Opie). As club Prez, Jax spends Season 5 trying to figure WHO killed Tara. The Cartel? The Hitman? Gemma?. . . Wendy? He'll also have the (eventual) war with the Niners to deal with.

lol, it was a far-fetched prediction I agree. But maybe he would tell Tig everything... just to test his loyalty?

Can't wait to see what the finale has in store for us!

[Leve-O]

Well that was somewhat dissapointing...

[GTAvanja]

I think it was great. I really liked the ending and I think we're gonna see a great season next year with Jax as the new club president

[.2D]

God f*cking damn, what a way to end the season. I don't know what I'll do with myself waiting for the next season, guess I'll lock myself away and play Skyrim until it comes back.

Honestly, ages back I figured they'd probably end SoA at Season 4, but sh*t really picked up and now I really wouldn't be surprised if this went on for 6 seasons. I hope so

[GTAvanja]

I like how it didn't end with a dramatic cliffhanger or I would go nuts like I did after each season of LOST. The ending was fitting, and much like the one from last season where we only got hints of what to expect next year.

The awesome finale song is already up on YouTube

[mrpain]

It was slow but that was alright. Every f*cking scene was an eye-opener! I'm currently typing on my phone so here's a brief thought about it. More to come when I get my hands on a keyboard.

The Cartel twist was a huge shocker. And Potter, he's an odd fella

Clay, wow totally didn't expected that.

But oh my f*cking god. That last scene was pulled off with a f*cking A! The way Jax sat down on the gavel, that's a classic moment no doubt. Then once you saw everyone sitting around the table, you realize all the troubles the club gone through. What a group huh? Just Tig, Chibs, Happy, Juice and Jax. I really like that Opie wasn't even there. Then Tara followed by Gemma, pure perfection! Nice to see Chibs being the new right-hand man, he deserves it. Not sure about Opie though. Glad that Juice sh*t is sorted out and Happy would probably get a storyline soon.

I like the song too. God I love that last scene!

Kurt Sutter has said he has a 7-season arc planned.

I'm really sourfaced with the ending. On the one hand, it magnificently sets up next season. On the other, it felt like one giant cop-out, making this entire season feel like one big tease. Very unsatisfying as a standalone season. But important in the grand scheme of things.


Oh, and nice Shield sighting. Sutter said Chicklis would appear.

mrpain gets his hands on a keyboard.

Been reading lots of reviews on the finale, I can tell you this, there's lots of mixed reactions.

The good reaction is that the finale sets up nicely for the next season. The bad reaction is that the finale erases everything this season has gone through.

Me? f*cking loved it man. Every single character gets his moment. From The Cartel being revealed working with the CIA, to Otta redeeming himself, I shall stop here. Too lazy to type the others out.

But man, still love it man! I'm so glad I have the entire Season 4 in my laptop now! Sons Of Anarchy is my number one favorite show!

If Charlie Hunnam, Kurt Sutter and of course Sons Of Anarchy doesn't win an Emmy, I'll cause a riot.

And guys, don't forget about that big gangster whom his daughter got killed by Tig. Any guesses which actor might play him? He's gotta be a huge character next season because he's supposedly a bigger player than LaRoy.

You know what I really loved about the finale? No one died.

I am hoping for Idris Elba (from The Wire and Luther). But maybe he's too big of a scene stealer. Forert Whitaker or Anthony Anderson, both were on The Shield, so there's that connection. But I think it'll either be Ving Rhames or an unknown.

Forert Whitaker

He was the first guy that popped into my mind

[darthYENIK]

Damn you Kurt Sutter! When the door opened, I was hoping to see Opie, but it was only Tara. Then it opens again and... Op? No dammit, it was just Gemma.

I really liked this season. Real good stuff. Not such a strong finale, but it tied up the loose ends. Next season looks good.

It would be unrealistic to expect Opie to sit at the same table with the man who killed his father and who had his wife killed. I don't see how Jax can convince him otherwise unless he tells him the truth.

[darthYENIK]

I know, but Opie is my favorite. Especially after he blasted the ATF bitch in the head with a Mac 10.

Didn't Jax already explain it all to Opie? Guess I might have to watch the episode a second time in case I missed anything. Oh well, I'm not complaining.

Maybe the most redeeming scene in the entire show to date.

Nah he promised Opie he would tell him the whole truth, but when it was the right time. He hasn't told anyone about the cartel being involved with the CIA except for Tara. I liked the season's ending but I think they purposely cock teased everyone making us think that Clay was going to die. I guess it makes sense that he doesn't just yet, because it sets it up to be far more dramatic next season. I bet next season is the last one.

I never cheer during TV shows. I audibly yelled, "Yeah!" when that happened.

I don't read this thread religiously so that part of the discussion definitely got by me. Three seasons is a lot more than I imagined it would be.
