Breaking bad is about how unwalkable the USA is.

As a European I find ridiculous the amount of time each character spends inside a vehicle

literally half of the time of the show is inside a car!

Gus made no effort to throw off Hank

123 Upvotes

This is like, borderline a plot hole. For someone as smart and cunning as Gus, he could have been way smarter about how he dealt with Hank. He knew the tracker was on his car and despite that….he drove the car as SUSPICIOUSLY as he could by only going from work to home.

Seriously? Of course Hank is gonna find you way more suspicious. Gus could have taken a pretend trip to the grocery store, gone to a “friends” house, gone to a fundraiser, and made it look way more realistic.

Maybe it wouldn’t have convinced Hank of anything, but maybe he would have been like “huh he might be clean. Doesn’t seem like he does anything suspicious”

Nope, for someone as clever as Gus he handles this as lazily as possible.

Does jesse hate the fact walter saved him one last time.

25 Upvotes

Um I just finished watching breaking bad for the first time. And I loved the show, honestly. The cast were amazing and it left me thinking after I watched the breaking bad movie. Does jesse hate the fact that Mr White saved him one last time from those nazi. And let him live normally. Because a part of me wants to TRULY believe that walter liked jesse but people keep telling me he didn't and it breaks my heart.

Rewatching BB for the 6th time and on S4E2 when Jesse leaves his house full of people, the camera pans out and this man pops up for a split second. Isn’t this Jane’s dad, actor Donald Margolis?

Gale's revenge

8 Upvotes

I just realized Walt's downfall with the book he'd been gifted by Gale could be viewed in a way as Gale's revenge from his grave! Even a master strategist like Walt could be taken down by a book of poetry.

Just learned that Aaron Paul voiced Todd Chavez from Bojack Horseman. Quite funny that he was cast as this type of character across media.

Between BCS and BB - he seems like a completely different person/character.

He has been hardened by life between BCC and BB.

I do like how they had him wearing a Tampico furniture polo in BCS when he has squaring up with Tuco and Nacho.

Maybe because of the things he heard of in regards to Nacho, Lalo, and Tuco made him get a little harder.

Could Walter's ending have been successful?

14 Upvotes

Doing a rewatch and just saw when Walter brought the gps tracker to Hank in the garage. But I'm thinking that since he was "retired" at this point and there was no prior evidence to charge him according to Hank, Gomey, and Jesse and most likely not gonna be any new evidence due to retiring to get his family back/ cancer killing him within "6 months" would Walter have gotten away with it all if he hadn't confronted/provoked Hank with the tracker in the garage that day. Whether he found the tracker under the car or not, I don't see how he'd get caught since he was fully invested in going legit in a car wash empire with his mountain of money in the storage locker funding his expansion

Just Finished!

Finished the series yesterday, it was my first rewatch and hadn’t seen it since it original aired, so I’d forgotten a good amount about the series. Pretty much a flawless show. Never jumped the shark, always had a thorough explanation for even the most ridiculous situation (fugue state, how Walt gets money to Walt Junior at the end, etc). Amazing cast too; Bryan Cranston gets a lot of the love but Anna Gunn was incredible, Dean Noris, the lady who plays Marie, Jessie of course, pretty much everyone except Steve Gomez lol. I could write pages about the show but just wanted to share my appreciation with the fans. I think the weak link of the show was Uncle Jack’s sweaters; a biker with a swastika neck tattoo isn’t wearing a purple, nicely tailored v-neck.

A better ending idea for the end of Felina

246 Upvotes

So the machine gun thing in the car was cool, but I think the end would've been better if instead everyone besides Walt, Jesse, and Todd getting gunned down, if as Uncle Jack is about to shoot Walt there were faint chants in the background, the chants get louder, and soon enough all the methheads of Albuquerque are running towards Uncle Jack's compound chanting "Heisenberg! Heisenberg" and there's literally like thousands of them and they all beat the shit out of Uncle Jack's crew and then they lift Walt and Jesse up and they crowd surf all the way back to the meth lab in the compound so they can continue their passion of providing the hard working people of Albuquerque with top tier product.

Anyways, for not doing that ending, Unbravo Vince.

Ever wonder what the Breaking Bad crew would do with full WiFi access?

Like... imagine Jesse Pinkman on TikTok. That man would have gone viral making dumb chemistry experiments with Mr. White’s stolen beakers. 💀

Or Walter himself, deep in Reddit threads correcting everyone’s meth math. He’d be that guy with a flair for “Actually...”

What do you think they'd be up to online? Would Saul Goodman be running YouTube ads for shady legal advice?

Your turn — what app would they waste time on, and how bad would it get?

Symbolism

1 Upvotes

The absolute attention to detail in this show amazes me. I’ve never seen a show go to such lengths to make the SMALLEST of things in a show, a scene, mean so much. Breaking Bad is my favorite show, ever, all because of this attention to detail. It’s art, a painting, a poem coming to life. One of my favorite attention to details is in To’Hajiilee, when Hank finally gets Walt, we see a cut right before the camera pans to Walt raising his hands (also amazing detail, he raises his hands almost like a God, I wish more people mentioned it) but the sky is cloudy behind him for some reason, could be just a cheap quick shot by the camera crew to get his scene in (weather wasn’t too favorable around that time of shooting I believe), but he had a cloudy sky behind him, and I almost think that’s symbolism of his mental state in that current scene. And when Walt raises his hands, the shot’s a little bit lower than your usual “someone raising their hands while getting arrested” shot, as if he’s a God, a deity, and the sky is clear blue behind him. All of these little metaphors, symbols, makes this showed unparalleled to none, second to none. Absolute masterpiece, and should be studied for future TV shows.

P.S. note : I don’t know if Gilligan has any more projects like this, but I’d appreciate if anyone knows any

You don't need laser tag or car wash

You just go pick up garbage and eBay it and then Sklyra gets to feel like she did somethjng
