Psychologist here

Many people would freeze due to shock or because you wouldnt know if it was a joke or not

>introduce character that is basically mexican cartel batman
>realize hes too OP to make sense in the later plot so have to kill him off in some retarded way
Was he even mentioned in breaking bad? He was such a major player

>>220973143
>Was he even mentioned in breaking bad?
He was, Saul thinks they're first sent by Lalo when they go at him masked up.

>>220972565
the older I get the more I cringe at breaking bad (never even saw bcs because it's boring as shit). Sopranos is 10 million times better

>>220974000
that scene in BB makes no sense if it was truly referencing BCS and you know it

>>220974050
>never even saw bcs because it's boring as shit
What do you mean? You've never seen the show.

>>220974077
Saul has no idea what happened to Lalo.

>new scene starts in the middle of something without context
>viewer trying to figure out what is going on is tricked into feeling engaged despite the fact that ultimately the current scene does not in any way advance the plot or the characters
>repeat for 6 seasons
cudos to vince, dude figured out a way to turn mediocre filmmaking into an artform

>>220974077
Sure it does, it was the heaviest shit Jimmy had been associated with and when dudes took him out to the desert again he assumed it was to do with Lalo and Nacho.

>funny throwaway line to show saul is involved in shady cartel shit
>ackshually it's literally a reference to this totally believable character in the prequel
Bravo Vince

>>220974188
I don't understand people that get this emotionally invested in a show they claim to dislike.

Release the episodes of no te equivoques! I want to see the hot girl in it! Tony Dalton! Do it now!

>>220974077
>that scene in BB makes no sense if it was truly referencing BCS
It wasn't referencing BCS, when they made BCS they took those names and made characters out of them.
>>220973143
>have to kill him off in some retarded way
This was one of my biggest gripes with the show. His death was so lame. They didn't even have Gus pull off some crazy display of cunning. It was just kind of
>oh, that was lucky

>nothing happens
>nothing keeps happening
>sudden reference to the thing from the other thing
>"Greatest reveal in television history"
I hate normies so much you wouldn't believe

>>220974234
It was Gus’ 5D chess move don’t you remember him specifically putting that gun in the wheel well and noting the electrical cord? He saw it all coming

>>220974210
they're retards

>>220972565
BB and BCS are pure "cult of badass" pandering faggotry.

>watch pilot of BB
>middle aged nerd Walt effortlessly beats up a high school jock for insulting his retard son
This is meant to show what a fearless badass he has become, since cooking meth in the desert somehow gives you the ability to beat up a much younger larger man with backup (who are inexplicably terrified of this 160 lb boomer). Then you have characters like Mike who are totally indulgent power fantasies for the fat boomers watching.

>>220974468
>Walt effortlessly beats up a high school jock
He doesn't though. He steps up to him and starts bluffing. Walt had absolutely zero plan if the jock decided to take a swing. Just like he had no plan if those dealers in the parking lot didn't back off after
>stay out of my territory
Or any of the other times he tried to intimidate people. He just kept making gambles with his own safety and getting a rush from it.

The show never tries to portray Walt as actually being tough. Any time someone gets tough back, Walt gets his shit kicked in. Even Jesse beat his ass. When Walt made that shpiel about being a pufferfish, he was speaking from experience.

>>220974749
The state trooper pulling him over is a great example.

I didn’t mind Lalo dying but having him die like a cliche action movie villain was retarded. He had footage of the lab, he could’ve just killed Gus and left but the ultra competent character suddenly has to act retarded so the plot can continue.

>>220972565
>2 of which are men taller than me
So?

>>220974210
I liked BB.
BCS is pointless slop.

>>220974909
lanklets who've never been in a fight think height means an automatic win

>>220972565
A lot of people freeze when they experience dread. There are a surprising amount of videos out there of people standing still while their murderer fucks around with a malfunctioning firearm. Some try reasoning others cover their head with their hands. Visit any major gore site for proof. Vince redeemed.

If my psychologist was on fucking /tv/ I would kill myself immediately.
