Is this character just a boomer power fantasy?

why did Walt not prefer his favorite sandwich for Mike, like he did in season 1?

Not so much in Breaking Bad. He was shown as competent and tough, but not infallible. He was outsmarted by Walt at every turn and failed at various points in the show. In Saul he was the invincible Super Grandpa and it was immersion breaking.

Did he bang any 30 year olds?

>>220284700
He's more like a zoomer dad fantasy.

>old, but with a dangerous Bronson side
>hyper-competent
>spouts profound street wisdom and is right about everything
>mysterious past, possibly worked for some Tom Clancy agency
>can solo a whole warehouse of gangsters when they PUSH HIM TOO FAR

"Wow, I wish he was my pop!" squeals Johnny Zooms.

Mike lives below his means and tries to set up a fund for his granddaughter so she'll be set for life. Yeah, he's Silent Gen, not a Boomoid.

There are much worse Boomer Mary Sues.

Picrel:
>Refuses to use smartphones and computers and it's portrayed as a lovable quirk.
>His mid 30's deputies are treated like little kids.
>Other Boomers rally at the last minute when he's going to lose his sheriff election.
>His 30ish year old lawyer daughter is so loyal to him she won't take any legal job that might pit her against him, which is basically everything in the area. So she works as a waitress instead but somehow still owns a house.
>Beats up much younger men.

This. They all agree boomers are evil but they can't decide why. Is it because they were heckin unwholesome and racist / sexist, or was it because they were too individualistic and self centered.
>>
>>220285343
I literally just posted the answer. Read nigga, read! >>220285281

1 Timothy 6:9-10 KJV
But they that will be rich fall into temptation and a snare, and into many foolish and hurtful lusts, which drown men in destruction and perdition.
For the love of money is the root of all evil: which while some coveted after, they have erred from the faith, and pierced themselves through with many sorrows.

I just find it funny how often you take the same side as the faggy Communist left you claim to be against. Is that why you're called the Marxist right?

>portrayed as the most cautious and aware person on the show
>avoids multiple ambushes purely through sensing trouble
>in his final moments decides to attack the ego of walt who he hasn't liked or trusted since the start and has recently determined is so reckless and dangerous he will get them all killed
>afterwards simply turns his back on walt and casually strolls to his car to sit in the driver seat and reflect on life and wait to be shot
it was partially their fault for turning him into a terminator so most deaths would be unsatisfying but him just becoming a retard and unable to read a situation made absolutely no sense for his character.

Are you pretending that everyone who watched that scene expected Walt to spazz out and outright shoot him? No. What is this autistic writing advice that keeps being pushed on the board of characters requiring 20/20 awareness? From where should Mike have "read the room"? When did Walt outright irrationally kill people out of personal disdain before?
The irony of Mike's death is that he unknowingly predicts this scene. When they are trying to hire him back in the beginning of season 5, he says that Walt is "a ticking time bomb" and he "doesn't want to be around for the explosion," except he both goes back to work for said bomb and inadvertently lights up the fuse that kills him because just once his personal feelings overwhelm him and he has to have the last word.
I will never understand how people think this is a writing flaw. Was Mike established to be a cyborg? Was his boiling hatred for Walter never been pronounced before this scene? What's the issue? Ah the character didn't read his own script. Shame shame.
