>All of this - falling apart like this - is on YOU!>We had a good thing you stupid son of a bitch! We had a meth empire constantly assaulted by the Mexican cartel, we had a gay Chilean man who only built this to get revenge on said Mexican cartel, we had everything we needed and it all ran like CLOCKWORK (except for all the times it didn't), you could've shut your mouth, cooked while gus murdered Jesse and then killed you once gale learned how to do it. It was perfect for me. But no, you had to blow it up, you and your self-defense and your desire to live. You just had to be alive. If you'd done your job, known your place, Fring would have dissolved you, Hank, your wife and children in a tub of acid and I'd be FINE right now!
>>222935560Holly knew the risks. She's arguably the catalyst for Walt's entire transformation. She's the real villain, if you ask me.
Mike was such a sanctimonious piece of shit
>>222935599Kek
>>222935599No femanon, I don't think so.
>>222935560Mike and Saul were both way more evil than Walter prove me wrong
he was using the royal we
>>222935560kek all true
Hey Mike, have you read Hegel or Dostoevsky?
>>222935560If Walter hadn't messed with the arrangements Gus set up for him to bring Jesse into the fold for his own personal benefit none of that would've happened though
>>222935853>if I need a philosophy, I'll use one of his
>>222936445Gus was hoping Gale could eventually cook meth as well and that Walt could conveniently die of cancer and get replaced. If Walter took to long to die then Gus would've had him assassinated once Gale was competent enough. Walter realizes this and starts lying to Gale about making the meth wrong. It was never going to end well.
wowhe took the original quotesandand CHANGED themto reflect ... ummm REALITYwow
>>222935560isn't the point that Mike is a bit delusional? he obviously feels how fucked up the job is during Better Call Saul and he's trying to blame all the negatives on Walt. Walt didn't make his life easy so it was easy to blame him for everything getting shittier as time went on. Mike was too honorable for this gig, like giving up so much fucking money every cook just so his guys were happy.
>>222936667HOLY FUCKING SHISHKABOBS DUDE
>>222936667If Walt wasn't such a narcissistic asshole he could have easily let Jesse retire, removing any hangup Gus would have had about working with Walt. A tiny bit of patience and humbleness and Walt would have been swimming in money.
Isn't that infitting with mikes character? He's convinced he's some noble, higher form of criminal. The whole point of the show is to explore ego at its worst.
>>222936667Not really, because the average npc watching the show thinks Mike is based and Walt's ego was the downfall of everything. They kinda forgot about Jesse trying to kill Gus' men and Walt saving him. Jesse stealing from Gus to deal to people in rehab. Jesse blackmailing Walt to get his job back at the lab....
>>222937412wrong, retard. Walt only brought Jesse in to work with Gus because Jesse got dirt on Hank, and Walt had to bribe him to stay quiet. The moment Jesse got in he did everything possible to sabotage Walt's relationship with Gus with his stealing meth and trying to kill Gus' dealers.
>>222937476ok mr gay
>>222935560MILITARYGRADEGYMEQUIPMENT
>>222935560He's the perfect boomer representation
>>222936445His own personal benefit being continued survival, as op pointed out already
Jesse should've got whacked. He became a lazy crutch for the writers to generate conflict. Also no way irl is Walt risking his life against a literal drugs kingpin to save some junkie.
>>222937689Walt was too kind to Jesse. Only secondaries who never watched the show claimed he was abusive.
>>222937689>anon finds out that characters are designed to generate conflictMind. Blown.
without Jesse, Walt would be completely fine. Elliot and Gretchen money would help with his cancer.without Walt, Jesse would be dead twelve times over. He would have been whacked by Krazy-8 and Emilio right on episode 1.
>>222937744Good writers accomplish this without contrivance. If Jesse dies, then the writers need to come up with new storylines and conflicts for Walt. But instead it's just a constant switcheroo between Walt and Jesse.Walt wants in. Then Walt wants out. Then Jesse wants in. Then Jesse wants out. Then Walt just wants to cook for Gus. Then Jesse starts getting uppity. Then Walt starts getting uppity. Then Jesse just wants to cook for Gus...
>>222937641This,it's a very realistic scene
>>222937771>anon is still bemused that characters are designed to generate conflictYeah, FUCK those writers!
>>222937771you are very right anon. Ignore the tranny.
MILITARYGRADEPIMENTO CHEESE
>>222937744And yet, the average fan of the show thinks it's all on Walt instead of the character there just to generate the conflict Walt has to deal with. Nothing has shown me how much of a bot most people are than how people cling onto the nonsense that if only Walt didn't have an ego, everything would have been better, as if every other character doesn't constantly put their own egos above what would be best for themselves and everyone else.
>>222937895Indeed. They blame Walt because characters on the screen blame Walt. 90% of people's "thoughts" on shows is just parroting what some character said.
>>222937895people who actually watch the whole thing from beginning to end are overwhelmingly pro-Walt. It's retards who watch clips or essays of it on youtube that think otherwise. Zoomers do not have the attention span to watch this show.
I still don't believe junkies are that picky when it comes to meth. I'm sure as long as it's 60% pure or more it would be enough to satisfy them. Muh 99% pure meth might be the most unrealistic aspect of the show.
>>222937942I think the point should have been about yield efficiency relative to some invested chemical bottleneck. It made no sense that they would not just dilute their high purity stuff to just being slightly above the competition but instead give junkies the best product they could and even take great pride in this nonsense waste
>>222937412The word is humility, you stupid cunt.
>>222938013go rip some wires out of your walls
>>222937689Gilligan's original plan was to kill Jesse in S1 but he cucked out, probably because all the women around him begged him not to kill him.
>>222936667Is that so?
>>222935560>You just had to be aliveyou just fucking HAD to
>>222935560Do you think Walter is in the scene with him or a body double? Every time I see this shot reverse shot shit I wonder if the actual actors ever even met up for the scene or is it filemed completely separatly from each other.
The whole thing was retarded from the get go because chemistry is easy as fuck and anyone with a lab can make perfect crack. Walt wasn't doing anything special. Backing bad is essentially an idiot plot.
>>222938136people with a lab usually don't make perfect crack, anon. That's why Walt is valuable. He's the only Nobel-level chemist alive willing to cook meth
>>222938153I don't know how to respond other then just repeating myself.The whole thing was retarded from the get go because chemistry is easy as fuck and anyone with a lab can make perfect crack. Walt wasn't doing anything special. Backing bad is essentially an idiot plot.Maybe it will make sense to you this time.
>>222938222Why, you actually just copy/pasted your own misspelling. But yeah, everything about it is bullshit. From the purity, to Walt needing to steal chemicals he can easily make to Jesse somehow making better meth later on.
>>222935599Women, not even once
Bcs was better anyway
>>222938042Suck me off ya lying dog.
>>222938136>The whole thing was retarded from the get go because chemistry is easy as fuckt.
>>222935599fpbp
>>222938222You know very little about the synthesizing of drugs (not your fault)When LSD was first commercially produced by Sandoz Industries it was at a disgustingly low purity level, something like 70-80%. It wasn't until Bear, Owsley Stanley, began privately manufacturing LSD that 90%+ began hitting the streetsToday, anything less than 93% is considered 'low quality'. While you're learning, the various hardware used to brew the concoction has a serious effect on the product. Go ahead and make your drugs in some cheap highschool chemistry set aluminum crucible, see what happens. Manufacture of common drugs for someone who knows chemistry is indeed rather like following the instructions for making a cake, but that doesn't make the ingredients and oven can be from the streets too.
>>222938136This is very true. If you've ever brewed your own beer you would know that reducing contamination is the that matters. All Walt did was make sure the place was clean before cooking. That's all that was needed to make the best meth.
>>222937873>"Gomey wake up you lazy beaner! Ehehehheheheh"Jesus Hank was that really necessary
Walt saving jesse from those two dealers was the dumbest thing ever, made zero sense. It was done to milk the show for another few seasons I think
>>222938552Average street meth is like 96%, anon. That's podunk bikers making it in their bathtub. Walt's 99% is nothing that would be worth the trouble and expense Gus and company went through, especially when Gale could have done the job on his own. Same deal with the big Mexican cartel arc in S4. Breaking Bad worked in S1 because it was low-level. Walt's product could be a big deal in a localized 'burb of New Mexico. The lynch pin in a cartel racket? No way.
>>222939417The idea people would go out of their way to buy the 'purest' meth is really funny as well. I mean they basically address it when Jesse is like "We make poison for people who don't care", like yeah, people actually wouldn't really give a shit
>>222935599>t. 80% of women
>>222935669>>222935803you're completely right. Mike's naked hypocrisy makes him such a piece of shit. >boo hoo all my proteges either got killed or I had to kill them myself. It's just like my son all over again, I can't stop leading young men to their deaths. and I won't stop because I'm old and enjoy shooting people
Waltuh.... I'm not having sex with you right now waltuh. Put your dick away waltuh
>>222936612Gus only was actively trying to replace Walt after Walt went rogue and killed two of his dealers to save Jesse, if Gus was always going to off Walt at some point he wouldn't of brought Jesse into the lab. Gus making a huge exception for Jesse indicates he did truly trust Walt and was going to integrate him into the business long term and he had no reason to kill him since he was told by Mike he wouldn't live much longer anyway. 5 star meth cooks don't grow on trees.
>>222937689This is definitely one of the weak areas of BB for me is that a character like Jesse really overstayed his welcome past S3 and just becomes a brooding depressed man. Jesse should of died in the Cartel coup that Gus pulls off then Walt in a fit of rage tears down Gus entire empire. That would of been more cathartic.
>>222940603it doesn't help this stupid nigger gets away with everything. He killed an innocent man in cold blood and should have done 20 years in jail, even longer than Saul.
