Breaking Bad - Part 10

Walt calling out Jesse's hiding spot had to be one of the hardest things to watch walt do. The scarier part is how not only was he not flinching when the gun was to jesse's head and the trigger about to be pulled but he actually seemed to be savoring the moment.

His admission about jane was just him rubbing it in one last time.

He may have a change of heart in the months of his hiding or whatever but rescue or not I don't want to see Jesse depicted forgiving Walt.

I think if it goes down that way, Walt will be using the cyanide pill on himself before Jesse has any chance to forgive him or not forgive him.

Also, when Walt said "Wait" and walked up to Jesse, I thought he was going to spit in his face like Jesse did to him. His admission about Jane was somehow worse.

Walt has also saved Jesse a lot of times, this would just be another

Read what i posted above it wouldn't just be just "another" time after all that's gone down.

The problem is walt is like that possessive parent who's taken the "I brought you into this world, I can take you out of it" expression way too literally.

Did anyone get a chance to listen to the new Breaking Bad podcast? I'm about to start now.

 

[StrainedEyes]

Last night's episode was rough. It was brilliant, but it was rough. I'm sad to see this fantastic show end, but damn will I not miss being stressed out every Monday.

Did anyone get a chance to listen to the new Breaking Bad podcast? I'm about to start now.

Yup, it's fantastic

Idk if anyone noticed, but there weren't any credits during the first act.

 

[BatLobster]

Yeah, there's no way they could've just had the credits casually popping up during Hank's death scene lol.

 

[StarLord]

Yup, it's fantastic

Idk if anyone noticed, but there weren't any credits during the first act.

Yeah, he said he had to get a waiver to do that.

 

[TheNextNolan22]

God, I just love the opening of last night's episode. Man, the writing on this show is just ****ing brilliant.

 

[Brain Damage]

 

[BeserkerHilf]

I kept track of it, the credits didn't start until after the second commercial break. 25 got dam minutes into the show.

 

[TheNextNolan22]

I nearly died watching this. And RJ Mitte's acting was just tremendous too.

I don't get this "rooting for" thing that is so often discussed.
I think it's beyond the point of the show to have like favorite characters
you always root for, or the other way around, always hate. The show is not that kind of black and white in any way for me. It's about conflicted feelings, point-of-views and situations.

Let's take Walt in this episode for example: When he practically ordered Jessie to be killed and at the same time coldly confessed the whole Jane thing just to hurt him – I totally despised Walt as a character there and then. At the same time, at the end when he saves Skyler from her sins, I can't help but sympathize with him in that particular moment. I'm both rooting for Walt to kill all the Nazis + Todd and at the same time hoping Walt meets a bitter end.

And another dimension to the whole thing is how a big part of the show's brilliance
is going against convential good guy-bad guy rules, not going with the most conventionally pleasing choices and not taking the easy way out. Like that Walt moment with Jessie I talked about, I hate Walt for doing it, but I also love the show for doing it. Cause it's damn powerful storytelling.

Which is why I will never get the inane Skyler hate. If she acted and was like those fans wanted, she would be so much less interesting and more boring. Sure she's annoying sometimes just cause you are so invested in Walt, but from her point of view her choices has never felt jarring. It's not only Walt (even though he is the catalyst for it all) who has done a journey/transformation with this show, and I think Skyler's journey is an underrated one.

So I haven't been really active in this thread up until the last few weeks. I was wondering if anyone had any thoughts on Negro y Azul: The Ballad of Heisenberg and its meaning to the overall show?

 

[Keyser Soze]

I kept track of it, the credits didn't start until after the second commercial break. 25 got dam minutes into the show.

That was 25 minutes!? It went by like it was 5!

 

[BeserkerHilf]

I said earlier this season that for how quickly Breaking Bad speeds through an hour, The Newsroom sure as **** makes up for the difference.

''It's Hank, his name is Hank.''

Read what i posted above it wouldn't just be just "another" time after all that's gone down.

The problem is walt is like that possessive parent who's taken the "I brought you into this world, I can take you out of it" expression way too literally.

I think he treated Jesse the way he did now because no matter how much he tried to save him or he liked Jesse, his actions just ended up hurting his oun family, and that's something Walt will most likelly not be able to forgive.

Hahaha those 2 pics.

 

[Dr. Manhatten]

For the beginning of the next episode, what do you think they'll do in terms of timeline? Jump ahead several months or continue the current time period for a bit? As much as I like the jump ahead, I REALLY wanna see the fallout of the revelations and what kind of attention it gets. Plus, I'd really like to see how the vanishing guys operate

I just finally started watching Breaking Bad a few weeks back, and last night is when I finally caught up. Going from being able to watch multiple "new" episodes a day when I have time to waiting a week after THAT episode is going to be torture!
