What's new

Breaking Bad (thread will have *spoilers*)

This is an impossible task. For one, you're not in a position to evaluate what constitutes "great insight" into the characters because you have the least exposure to them. Furthermore, your position is entrenched and you're the least qualified person in the thread to evaluate factual statements about the show. For example, if I told you that shot's of Gale's apartment in Season Three suggest deep connections with Gus Fring going back to South American roots and potential shared interests in Marxist philosophy and lite-opera patter songs, you have no idea if I'm feeding you a line of ******** or not.

If I talk to you about significance of Marie's color palette in recent episodes you don't have a lot to compare that too. You've only watched those recent episodes.

Are you even entirely sure why Jesse is so upset about Brock?

I understand you think you know enough and that's fine. Totally your call. But the reaction of other posters exists because it's almost like having a blind man insist to you he understands the color orange as well as you do.



I'm not rooting for Walt at all. I've been rooting for Hank ever since he yelled at Marie for calling his minerals "rocks."

And another day passes with you having nothing to say unless it's to attack me.
but my opinion is invalid because I wasn't paying attention to the color scheme . whatever man

so the key to understanding what is going on is lite-opera patter songs.....k
I guess I was focusing on trivia, but you... You focus on what is really important .

Oh crup, you are speaking in hypothetical. Were you just making things up, or not.... I have no idea. Damn you.
Now I can't enjoy the resolution of the series unless I understand the décor of the apartment of that dweeb Gale. Damn it all to hell!

I find myself wondering why I am rooting for Walt instead of Hank. It's the Tony Soprano Syndrome. The characters draw you in and you find yourself rooting for them no matter how bad they are. Maybe I think there is still some goodness in Walt, deep, deep down.

You root for Walt because his intentions at first were good and you could see yourself in the same situation doing what he did...... You then start to justify all the bad things he has done not cause he did it but cause you would also have possibly done them....

Rooting for Walt is rooting for yourself!!!

This is what has made this an awesome and in some ways terrifying show all the way through. Someone doesn't wake up one day and go "hey I think I will be a drug kingpin" or serial killer or whatever. That kind of thing is the result of many little decisions pulling you down the slippery slope and this show has shown that brilliantly. Of course I can see myself in his shoes. We all can really, which is what shows you how well thought-out and well-written this series has been. No big leaps, just little nudges closer and closer to the edge.

No one attacked you. There's not a personal attack anywhere in there.

Also, I've asked you via PM to stop responding in patterns of three posts and gave you a handful of reasons. It's annoying for me to keep consolidating your posts through the moderation queue. If you have more to say, just edit your prior post. I know you know how because you edited out the part about your favorite part of the show was watching "the scumbag lawyer" get beat up.

You are mistaken. It appears that you did not read my explanation of what I meant by an "attack", made in a prior post. If you aren't going to keep up with the past details, then you are unqualified to make comments later in the thread.

Not sure how much mike would appreciate that. Especially after what Walt did to him.

Last episode had a "filler" feel to it. Lots of posturing but nothing really happened except some idle threats. With Walt retired from cooking, the material is being spread a little thin.

I disagree. I think it is building tension now as the "action" isn't obvious anymore. The mental games being played take a greater degree of subtlety and are much more nuanced than a race to kill gale before they shot Walt for example. To me this is much more intense.

Skylar is going off the handle.... "What's one more" and Marie... My gosh what a turn around... I think she plays a big role on the final outcome of the show!!!

She's got a Lady Macbeth thing going on right now.
