I couldn't believe the news this morning; James Gandolfini who famously played Tony Soprano, has died of a heart attack aged just 51...

Me and my girlfriend just finished watching Sopranos for the second time (her first time!), I can't believe it! RIP.

It is unfortunate, but it does show the dangers of being a big fat guy. Especially italian dudes have genetic heart troubles. Shame to see him go, he seemed like a really soft spoken human being when he wasn't whacking people

I enjoyed the sopranos a lot. Sad to die at such a young age

he dies at age 51 of a heart attack, he was getting really fat, so I guess it's pretty obvious what happened.

Haven't seen The Sopranos, it never convinced me the early advertising. But Gandolfini is that kind of "cult actor" because of his secondary roles in a lot of nice movies.

I have in list an intense drama in which he's protagonist along the girl from Twilight ("Welcome To The Rileys").
