Breaking Bad - All Bad Things Must Come To An End - The Finale Thread

[Sawyer]

Powerful scene right here.

I love how everyone was talking about how almost every one of the main players had no hair at one point, but it ends with both Walt and Jesse hairier than ever.

The Lydia thing I got. It was getting into the house that I thought was a tad much. I mean, Walt isn't exactly a ninja or anything. Unless there was an unused training montage that was supposed to be included while he was living in that shack.

I don't care how he got into the house, the zoom out to reveal him there already was amazing.

God, I almost want to go watch start watching the whole series again, but I don't think I'm ready to. I don't think a series this good will come around again for a long time.

One thing though. How does one put ricin into an unopened packet of stevia and then make it look like it was never opened? My only nit-pick

He made the most perfect meth ever. Bombs. Gun-shooting machines. And used science to save his ass multiple times. And you question how he closed a sugar packet?

 

[JaD]

Not gonna lie. I thought that they might have Jesse get into a wreck as he was speeding away.

 

[DyeLorean]

I think one of the best things about the finale is that it closed all the storylines -as much as a series finale can, that is-.

 

[Kane52630]

A very fitting end to the greatest show on tv.

 

[A Necessary Evil]

I do wish, however that the tagline for the season would have been muttered. Little nitpicky, but still would have been cool.

Remember My Name.

Walt had already observed her stevia obsession in their meetings before. I bet he worked out that idea sometime during his journey home; he just needed the ricin. The man is nothing if not prepared.

Guess I got what I deserve.

Except if Brock found Andrea's body in the morning or not.

 

[SnarkyLeigh]

I can't even deal with the ending; Good on the show for having me relate and feel bad about a character who has done really horrible things at the last second.

I finally finished my review for the finale is anybody cares to read it

Can anyone tell me why Walt left the watch on top of the phone booth?

Also, the flashback with Jesse, was it ever established in the show with Jesse that he wanted to be a carpenter or something?

 

[Shifty]

Like most, I was expecting something darker, but I'm pretty happy right now. Loved the closure offered and layers involved.

Yeah I thought it was going to be darker but there are so many dark episodes already in the series. I think a dark ending would be too much, we just had Ozymandias a couple of weeks ago, followed by Granite State. This needed to happen.

That is a good point.

Walt nearly poisoned her when they met in 5.1 after Mike's death. He had the ricin on him.

Pretty cool, and kind of sad article on Albuquerque:

In Kafkaesque, Jesse recounts being inspired by a high school woodworking teacher, about how he slacked off, but eventually applied himself and made something great.


Then gave it away for drugs.

 

[Upset Spideyfan]

You didn't let me down crazy future bearded character development Walter White.


Best show ever.

That scene is from Season 3's "Kafkaesque". Jesse talks about a wooden box he made in school that was his most prized possession.

The homage was maybe my favorite scene from the finale, actually.

1) That was the watch Jesse had bought for him in the first half of season 5. Walt was going back to kill everyone. This is open to interpretation, but I feel it's right considering his reaction when Skinny Pete and Badger mention the blue meth. Does he know Jesse is alive at that point? Not sure. But he knows the blue meth is out there, and the watch reminds him of Jesse. It makes sense to ditch it.

2) Jesse confessed in rehab that he was challenged by one of his highschool teachers in a woodworking class. He built a box and discovered that he loved working with his hands. He kept building different boxes until it was perfect. He traded it for weed.

Oh thanks forgot about that! Someone's been paying attention in woodshop.

 

[JJJ's Ulcer]

Yeah, it was rather straight-forward and surprisingly predictable, but it was executed well. I don't really have any complaints about it, it did what it needed to do. I'm surprised Vince called it controversial though, since it was about as safe an episode as there's been all season.

That's exactly WHY it's controversial.

 

[Boom]

"Cheer up, beautiful people. This is where you get to make it right."



We need this in gif form. Now.
