What was I supposed to take away from this utterly mediocre show other than that a man's struggles mean nothing anymore if he doesn't please his disgusting shrew of a wife and the family under her thumb?
>>215359232who knows man
Science, bitch.
if you were a loser when you were younger you will always be a loser and doing the coolest shit possible, doesn’t mean you will stop being a loser it’s ingrained in you to loserdom. So never strive to achieve anything, because you will always be the dork you were when you were younger

>>215359232There is no moral. Read a book. It's a soap opera meant to entertain you long enough to tune in next week. Which it did. Move on.
>>215359232it’s a five-act shakespearean tragedy that deconstructs the power fantasies born from the impotent rage of the modern american man
Don't wait until you're old or diagnosed with cancer to start living life on your own terms.
>What was I supposed to take away from this utterly mediocre show other than that a man's struggles mean nothing anymore if he doesn't please his disgusting shrew of a wife and the family under her thumb?but enough about Sopranos
>>215360090when do you become "old"I'm 34
>>215359232Crime doesn't pay
Breaking Bad really popularized inverted morality storytelling in American media. And not in the ways the writers think or wanted. They wanted you to hate Walter White, but everyone just hated the ones you were meant to like, like Skylar
>>215360459when your cock stops working
>>215360488I masturbated 5 times yesterday guess I still got it
>>215359232Family holds you back. Walt & Jesse weren't blood related but were like family to an extent. Jesse was a retard deserved to die and Walt should've killed him or let him die many times throughout the series but couldn't because he viewed him like a son or brother. This is a story about the burden of family. Better call Saul touches upon this, too with Saul's brother. I think Vince is trying to say something here about how gay it is to deal with a retarded brother holding you back.
>>215359232Better Call Saul was the better show. Based Vince made sure it had plenty of Seehorns feet.
>>215359232Breaking Bad was always a goofy live action cartoon for adults.>two face gus>i am le one who knocks>bbbb-bonfire>machine gun in trunk killing nazis>magnets bitch>any scene with le 4d chessmaster gus>it's not le meth>the two assassin brothers
>>215359232
>>215360482>everyone just hated the ones you were meant to like, like SkylarWe were supposed to like her? All she did was goad him into getting even worse.
Its overrated boomer power fantasy just like sopranos
>>215360459once you turn 25 and have your first child as all your ancestors did
>>215359232>What was I supposed to take awayThat you nerd to grow a brain and some taste.
>american has to sell drugs because his healthcare system is fuckedkek
>>215359232it was the first television show with character development
>>215360577>Better Call Saul was the better showIt was objectively worse. >Two major subplots mostly disconnected>the law subplot was more about drama than law>Jimmy wasn't as cool as Saul in breaking bad>protagonist mogged by several characters>Jimmy and Kim work to ruin the career of a good man just for the lolz>said good man gets kino character development but just dies randomly >the two big lawsuits that were so important to the plot don't see conclusion Better Call Saul was objectively mid and only people with shit taste think it was better than Breaking BadThe best part of Better Call Saul was unironically Walter and Jessie despite being just cameos
>>215359232life doesn't have a moralneither must fiction
>>215359232crime doesnt pay
>>215361168>>the two big lawsuits that were so important to the plot don't see conclusionBut they did conclude, did you not watch the whole show or what?
>>215359232if you look at season 5 as non canon fan service then Skylar is inconsequential and it's just a fun rags to riches story.
>>215361249I have like 5 more episodes to watch and the last season ends. I don't think Sandpiper and Mesa Verde end in these last episodes.
>>215359232Don't do crime and don't leave the love of your life for stupid reasons
>>215360584Wtf is this?
>>215359232The show was a CIA psyop to hook untold numbers of whites on meth and then later, fent.
>>215360099Powerful
>>215359232don't marry dumb bitch who will give you crippled son, cheats on you and steal your money.
>>215361093This. Walt changed. And he liked it. He was good at it
>>215361168Nah BCS was better, Vince's writing and cinematography improved a lot in BCS. Its jus that there's a lot of stupidity in BCS like the ramboing a gang stronghold and the lalo overstayed his appearance.
>>215361288Sandpiper ends because of Hamlin being suspected of being coked up because of the dilated pupils and his paranoid belief that Jimmy is setting him up all the time. Cokely makes them agree to the price he sets since everyone knows it's over and tells them to decide on the day because the offer shrinks by the next day.
>>215361350Breaking Bad and BCS have different styles of cinematography that fit their own shows well. Breaking Bad often has a lot of hand held camera work which fits the fast paced and high octane nature of the show while BCS uses a lot of well thought out static shots which fits the slow burn feel of the show. But I agree BCS cinematography is better overall
>>215361392In my opinion breaking bad had more of an earthy tone to it. Better call Saul has more of a light bubbly airy vibe to it.
>>215360584HEH WAAW
>>215361350>Vince's writing and cinematography improved a lot in BCS.No, it didn't. The camera was not shaking but that's it. And how I showed, the writing was much worse. >>215361355Shitty conclusion.
>>215360482Walter literally wins in the end
>>215362987How? He has no legacy, the meth heads that would actually care about him can't even remember their own names half the time.
Why didn’t he just take the money from rich friend in the first or second episode?
>>215363063Pride and jealousy mostly.
>>215361893
>>215359232Wow, you missed it entirely. I hate sharing this website with contrarians and retards.
>>215359232Pride and greed is the downfall of every genius in historyNo one is untocuhableLies always get uncoveredLiving as a criminal is living on borrowed time
>>215363063This for millionth time >>215363102
>>215363030Quite literally went out in a blaze of glory
>>215362987I never quite liked this about Breaking Bad since it feels like it goes against the shows intended message of crime doesn't pay. Other people I think have also pointed this out
>>215363313Well it doesn't pay, that was very clear. His legacy is a disgrace and everyone he ever knew in life hated him by the end.
>>215363313It really doesn't pay.Walter ends up with no family, money, friends or legacy to the world other than the toxic drug he sold to junkies.
>>215363332Yeah but it still felt a bit too much like Walt won despite all that. I kinda prefer this version of the ending without the baby blue song in some ways because I feel like it better emphasizes how Walter truly died alone.https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RXaSMaWuHRQ
>>215361301Look up "Breaking bad X Baki" on youtubeThey made 7 great videos
>>215363407Won what? That he made really good drugs? He died with nothing, not even the simple love of his family.
>>215359232You need to watch it when you’re older. This show is basically two shows that you have to watch 10+ years apart. The second one is better.
>>215360508This is retarded, Jimmy is the burden in BCS and Chuck is the protagonistBCS is about how you never let people with ASPD into your life even if you’re blood related
>>215363505He would've been alright if Chuck had actually let him in. Jimmy did make a change in his life and was worked hard, he was honest throughout his time in the mail room and did all the studying needed to pass the bar. He genuinely changed and wanted to be closer to his brother, and his brother rejected him and forced him out.
>>215363471It's truly ironic that Walter's massive ego and insecurity stem from his childhood trauma of his sick Father making him hyperfearful of how others perceive and remember him, but his ego ultimately ended up leaving his family with the worst possible impression of him.
>>215360099>What was I supposed to take away from this utterly mediocre showBigotry against Italians is always justified
>>215359232Family shit ruined the show. Better Call Saul is better in every way.
>>215361392Hard agree. however, BCS falls apart a bit aroud season 4/5 (forget exactly where), before pulling it in for a really decent finale.The show had so much fucking soul.
>>215363571>making him hyperfearful of how others perceive and remember himI haven't watched the show but isn't this how most people operate? After all once a group of people thinks you are a retard you will forever be ostracized and picked on. The only rational behaviour is to keep up a good reputation.
>>215364687Nta but it was more he was fearful of how his family would perceive him if he died sick and destitute, leaving his wife with a newborn and a disabled kid. The show tends to insist upon itself a little bit but Walt is not necessarily hyper fearful of everyone’s perception of him, his character is fairly dynamic. He does things he knows will end up getting him ostracized, like trying to fuck his boss and making enemies with his other boss for the sake of his junkie partner, but those are mostly plot devices. Walt’s issue really is that he did not give a fuck and just wanted to, for most of the show at least, keep his immediate family on his side. He goes full scorched earth at the end. Really he was fearful of how he would perceive his own life, him and his pride and his ego.
>>215359232>What was I supposed to take away from this utterly mediocre showWypipo BAD
>>215364409Yawn
Would have been kino if it ended at season 4, but Bravo Vince had already made his mind up about le epic methlab shot he wanted to end the show with.
>>215360577Dubs of trvthGodlike feet
>>215359232gilligan promised a monster by the end of the show but didn't deliver. the audience never gets a reason to root against walt and he's a sympathetic character until his death
If BB was an anime you'd be praising it
Do you think Walt Jr. got to bank Marie in the end?
It's a show about pride, and I'm not surprised by your language that you didn't get it
>>215359232White supremacists deserve death?
>>215360488Its thisT. Old
>>215361211Get well soon
Willy Wonka?
>>215364687>I haven't watched the show butThen watch it
>>215359232Damn Walt got caked..
>>215359232Were these promo images shot in a real location or just shot on greenscreen?
>>215359232Meth is kino
>>215361073>His entire family line had kids when they were already practically menopausalNo wonder you turned out such a sperg.
What if Jesse had just shot Mike and Gus after he killed Hector's Grandson and blamed their deaths on him to Gus' doctor?Lydia and Schuler could cover up how they died and the lab is not destroyed and a known entity to the dea now.
>>215366573What if walter didnt meth
>>215364474The finale was the worst part of BCS. Are you retarded?
>>215366753What an earth else were you expecting?It was beautifully constructed. >each major character from bb suffers a different fate>loops back to beginning>an actual bittersweet love story which lands>culmination of 3 timelines finally pulling in together>small flickers of light which keep you hoping until the very endThe final season is truly masterful TV.
>>215365604This.
