what a completely pointless character
>>
1/10
>>
>>214406476
He was good.
>>
>>214406476
There's pointless people irl, who if threaten can fuck up your shit. A lot of things were put into motion because his boss got too greedy and threaten his unc.

Also his uncle/father or whatever was supposed to be the foil to Mike's character who believes he's doing good by working within a code.
>>
>we gotta include the nacho guy saul talked about in that one scene from breaking bad
>okay, what should we make him do?
>i dunno, we'll probably come up with something later
>>
>>214406664
the we have no plans at all for 4 seasons style of writing really made the last season of bcs suffer
>>
>>214406476
I don't like how Mike sort of took over his importance in the show. Nacho is supposed to be the secondary main character.
>>
>>214406476
??
that's not Walter Jr
>>
>>214406825
Mike was made secondary because he's an interesting character but most importantly because Vince and Peter fucking hated how retard fans thought Mike was le epic hero in BB and BCS dismantles that by showing Mike he's a shitty corrupt asshole who deserved what he got, since he refused to go straight even after his son's death.
>>
>>214406852
god I hated that retard. it was hard to listen to and added absolutely nothing to the show. the whole point of the kid being there is to make the viewer feel empathy and hate walt sr for being so selfish. walt jr was such an annoying retard you actually wanted him to have a terrible life
>>
>>214406825
>Nacho is supposed to be the secondary main character.
You made this up on your own. That's Kim.
>>
>>214406476
He put that asshole Hector in the wheelchair, what more do you want
>>
>>214406798
The final season really felt like 'oh shit, we've finally arrived at this point, wrap this up, make references'
>>
>>214406476
>I've been a criminal ever since I was in diapers, and I hang out with Cartel royalty. But Mr Salamanca looked at my dad funny, FEEL BAD FOR ME.
>>
>>214406476
the shapeshifts are getting worse and worse this guy looks like he left some of his skinsuit in the mold
>>
>>214409402
I liked the way the show started, but me and my girl kinda just shrugged when it ended. Was like a crawl to the finish
>>
I praise Better Call Saul for demonstrating how shitty Gus and Mike really are as people. Before BCS redditors used to praise them for being 'le level-headed and reasonable and Walt is le evil >:(' and now they're like 'holy shit noooo not the poor Nacho fuck those guys!!'
>>
>>214406476
I mean Vaas was a cool dude so I’d put him in my show quite literally.
>>
>>214406798
>>214409402
>>214409490
I guess pure unadulterated kino really is lost on some people
>>
>arrives at location
>talks to mike for a few minutes
>leaves
riveting
>>
maturing means realizing BCS mogs tf out of BB
>>
Worse... He's a DEI hire... Even for a Mexican role. ... Wtf
>>
>>214411174
Your weird cultist rules and notions of what's DEI or not don't actually matter.
What mattered is he looks Latino enough and had a good audition
>>
>>214411344
What is he actually? Italian? Greek? .... Portuguese?
>>
They couldn't find a way for Nacho and Lalo to tie back into eachother in the final season?
>>
>>214406476
I liked him. That's all the point I need.
>>
>>214409492
Please, Vince Gilligan is eternally butthurt that people like Walt, Mike, and Gus. He always does hacky over the top stuff to turn viewers against the characters. That's why he had Walt mess with the kid and Mike kill the German.Gus, I don't remember, probably them confirming he smokes pole at the end of BCS.
>>
>>214407905
yes and I hated him even more for siding with that cretin of his mother and with that hypocritical asshole of Hank
>>
>>214411397
He's mixed Lebanese and West African
>>
Just watching X-Files and Vince Gilligan is producer on it. Tuco is in s4e11.
>>
>>214411783
And Hector Salamanca was a jew from Philadelphia.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mark_Margolis

Apparently Beanface is still perfectly acceptable in Hollywood.
>>
>>214411583
Hans knew the risks and knew Mike would have to put him down.
>>
>>214411583
are you that faggot who made this video essay https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ov54_EM8s70&t=72s&ab_channel=ApollyonAnalysis
>>
>>214411424
was a shame they had no confrontation. makes sense lalo would be after gus first and foremost and that nacho is trapped in mexico, but yeah that was my only disappointment with the season.
>>
For me, it's discount Vin Deisel
>>
>>214409801
All the chicanery in BCS was kino. It lost steam in its final season.
>>
>>214413767
faceblind
>>
>>214406476
Dis nigga zesty as fuck
>>
>>214411583
If you mean poisoning Brock, there was literally no other way out. Vince didn't see Walt as completely unredeemable (at least after deciding to keep Jesse alive, the original Season 1 finale is cursed AF and does not feel like he even wrote the episode) since Felina shows that he could still do things for the good of others. Meanwhile Mike and Gus were genuinely given many chances to stop and refused, they fled or threatened others like cowards and ended up fucked without a "good" ending like Walt got.
>>
>>214406476
The only point of any fiction is to entertain the audience, you “muh plot” retards are miserable, autistic, faggots.
>>
>>214414959
how pathetic you must be to think that
you think the only value of the works of Homer, Leo Tolstoy, Bill Shakespeare, and Alfred Hitchcock is that they fill a little time? Genuinely you are the most retarded person on this board
>>
he was mexican version of pinkman. cartel's errand boy.
>>
>>214406476
here's your (You)
You earned it buddy
>>
>>214415324
Nobody cares faggot, all of those fake pseud writers you tried to name drop were trying to engage their audience and entertain them.
>>
I mean all the characters on that show were retarded, the writing is bad.
Mike is a mary sue, Lalo was fun until he started doing superhero shit, Jesse was a fucking human cowbell, Walt was just a series of I*M A*C*T*I*N*G scenes that could be played in almost any order
>>
>>214415816
Politically speaking they help create a culture. Tolstoy and Homer weren't writing in English and had an intended audience. There's also the sublayer of marketing execs who use cultural elements to push ideas and products.

Unless you're a hermit you're basically programming your brain via the things you consooom.
>>
>>214415969
>Mike is a Mary Sue
Mike gets routinely shown to be miserable as well as wrong and pretty evil. "Five-Oh" is all about Mike's backstory and he isn't a Mary Sue in it at all, he's a crooked cop who degraded his son and then became a bloodlusty killer
>Lalo was fun until he started doing superhero shit
Most exaggerated thing he ever does is get through the ceiling in that one store. He's pretty realistic otherwise
>Jesse was a fucking human cowbell
Tf does this mean
>Walt was just a series of I*M A*C*T*I*N*G scenes that could be played in almost any order
Your taste is awful and you should be ashamed
>>
>>214416122
>"Five-Oh" is all about Mike's backstory and he isn't a Mary Sue in it at all, he's a crooked cop who degraded his son and then became a bloodlusty killer
You mean the one where he flawlessly kills 2 cops through master spy tier deception combined with navy seal CQC abilities?
>>
>>214406476
>what a completely pointless character

He gimped Hector.... so there's that.
>>
>>214416444
>master spy tier deception
You retarded? He didn't do "master spy deception", he hid a gun in their car, unloaded his own knowing they'd take it and then played the drunkard and let them know he was aware of what they did. It isn't a mega smart move, it's certainly calculated but cops can do shit like that. He also doesn't flawlessly kill them, pretty sure he gets shot in the shoulder
And again, you're missing the point that the episode shows Mike basically being broken due to being responsible for Matt's death while also showing he never improves and only gets worse as he gets closer and closer to BB. Another example of him being taken down a peg is when he has his talk with Nacho's dad
>>
>>214416666
quads checked also yeah /tv/ just hates breaking bad and better call saul in particular because anything that normies like they must hate, even if normies can like good stuff every now and then
>>
>>214416923
Normies like BB and BCS but they seriously misunderstand the shows. If I had a nickel for every time I've heard them talk about Walt's ego and pride and miss the obvious fact that Mike was bluffing and lying through his teeth in his last rant I'd be filthy rich. I'd expect /tv/ to have a reasonable reaction and point out to ledditards shit like Chuck and Hank being right, but no for some reason its these shitty subpar ragebait threads nobody gives a fuck about
>>
>>214409492
>no reason
are redditors this retarded?
>>
>>214417092
Considering a lot of them are wholeheartedly on Gus' side, think Chuck was evil for not being a nepotistic asshole and bringing his criminal brother into his firm, think Hank making jokes about mexicans is worse than Mike going around killing people and a bunch of them actually think Skyler was just a poor angel, yes, yes they are extremely retarded
>>
>>214415969
Lalo isn't the one doing superhero shit so much as the Salamanca twins. They win a battle with rival gangsters by themselves while outnumbered at least 5-1
>>
BB and BCS are excellent shows which have 1 extreme fatal flaw.
Every important character that is supposed to be hispanic has dogshit Spanish. It's actually distracting.
>>
>>214416666
You actually didn't watch the show and/or are retarded. That sucks
>>214416923
I have seen both shows multiple times over and I like them. You actually didn't get what the shows were.
>>
>>214406476
All the cartel shit in BCS was pointless filler because Vince couldn't carry a show solely on Lawyering
>>
>>214416122
Lalo is the most wanted man in the US and he just flies from Germany to ABQ and no one notices a thing?
>>
>>214406476
around lalo, watch your tallow
>>
Mary Sue issues aside, can we agree that Lalo is the best side character in the show? He steals every scene he's in. Tony Dalton is such an underrated actor.
If you'd like more shows about scheming, Los Simuladores is great. I'm sure that it's the reason why Vince casted him.
>>
>>214417324
Lalo and Nacho have good Spanish. But yeah Hector sucks ass, love the actor but man his Spanish is subpar. And seeing Giancarlo try and speak Spanish is just hilarious
>>214417335
I did watch the show you fag. Mike breaking into another guy's car is not exactly Mary Sue characterization
>>214417366
There is no evidence that he went from Germany to ABQ. Chances are that much like his trip to Germany he did it in Mexico and then went past the border with a car.
>>
>>214406476
>it’s another /tv is too retarded to understand why a character is in a show
Duhhhhhhhhhhhhhh which character does Nacho interact with the most? DUHHHH who is the other main character apart from Kim and Jimmy?
Nachos purpose is to complete your image of Mike and if you think Mike is a good guy or partially “good” you fell for it
>>
>>214417437
Well yeah, Lalo's actor is Mexican. Nacho can actually pronounce the words but has trouble with Rs
But Giancarlo's Spanish is inexcusable. I don't understand why he's in the role of his lifetime and he refused to learn Spanish. It's not like Hollywood doesn't have countless of linguistic experts to teach actors certain languages and accents.
>>
>>214406476
Fucking who?
>>
>>214417437
It's Mary Sue. Mike is only second to Walt in his Mary Sue status (until it's convenient for the plot)
>>
>>214417575
Kek you have no clue what you're talking about. Do you even understand what a Mary Sue/Gary Stu is tard? It's not just being clever and taking out their enemies
To say Walt is a Gary Stu is mega fucking retarded, considering all the character goes through and the fact that by the end literally nobody likes him and he dies with tons of regret and misery.

His Mary Sue shit really got on my nerves. It was so fitting that Woltuh was the one who finally got one over on him. In BCS he was like a cartoon character with magic crime skills.
>>
>>214409467
The over manicured lined up wigger haircut is not helping.

>>214417525
Esposito is Belgian and Nando is from Montreal.
Esposito was convincing as a Puerto Rican heroin dealer in "Fresh".

He's really good as Vaas if you've ever played Far Cry 3. The actor isn't the problem, it's the shitty script he has to work with in this series.

It must be hard to play an extremely kino villain and then have to be a watered-down anti-hero in another project.
>>
>>214417599
You don't even know what Mary Sue is. lol
I'm not gonna clown you for being ESL. I appreciate the effort
