Don't Stop... Believin' (in the Power of a Hayden Ghost)

Today on HCRYFE, we move to the realm of Premium Cable TV. The very ending of The Sopranos infuriated many of the viewers on that fateful June night. Some people hated not knowing what happened, some hated the "cop out" feel, some hated that it cut off the awesome Bon Jovi Journey grooves mid-lyric, some just hate the color black, and 5 people enjoyed it (myself and creator, David Chase, included). Now, I bring you an ending that we can all agree is terrible, especially since an angsty ghost totally ruins the mystery, appeal, and slimming effects of solid black.

This is the one by my man George Lucas that started it all.

This adding of Hayden Christensen in post years after the film was made was so epic, that the following blog had to be created to see how this choice would work in other films.
