that whole plot is weird. I picked up on this connection when I watched it, but the name is just to weird. English name but GmbH, bitch? Sounds so fake.

And possibly big drug players from my country pushing drugs into the US? What?

What plot?

 

[Binabik15]

What plot?

Super evil mega corp actually being behind a restaurant that is totally a cover for a huge meth distribution operation that wins against a freaking Mexcian cartell.

 

[CrankyJay]

I think of the show as a graphic novel converted to a television series. That helps me suspend some of my disbelief.

AMAZING interview with Gilly, Milch, and Mattie Wiener:

http://www.gq.com/entertainment/mov...iner-vince-gilligan-david-milch?currentPage=1

Featuring this:
"Anyway, when you do a show about a man who's been diagnosed with cancer in the first episode, a very likely possible ending presents itself pretty readily."

[Cornballer]

Yeah, that's a fascinating interview. I posted it over in the general tv thread, but it certainly has a place here, too.

Milch is like scary smart.

 

[Willkiller]

I don't understand why AMC aren't just calling the 2013 episodes season 6?

 

[Cornballer]

Milch is like scary smart.

Definitely. Incredibly intelligent in an overwhelming way.

Contract issues. I posted about it few days ago.

I'll go find the post! I was just confused by it that's all, good to know they actually have a reason for it.

Spoiler

Germany

is where they built the Gus-bot.

 

[mattp]

Yes, you're right.

filming location for season 5

Spoiler

They filmed some scenes in germany. Assuming this to be the location of Madrigal Electromotive.

do you have a source for this?

 

[dave is ok]

do you have a source for this?

I kind of doubt it based on the budget of the show - but here's something spoilery that might interest you

 

[Master Thespian]

But before they ride motorcycles, Walt will give a speech on Jesse's wake, then he will receive a text saying "Shut The Fuck Up Bitch".

*bow*

Nah, after Walt is given five months to live, Jesse will fake his death in a burning building. Then Jesse and Walt will ride motorcycles into the sunset after Jesse tells Walt "Cancer's boring".

hahahaaaaahahahhaa

Sign me up for one of the Pollos shirts, but I wouldn't want to set foot in that store.

- LA Weekly: RJ Mitte: The Good in Breaking Bad

Great little article. I still say Mitte is kind of the unsung hero of the show. People appreciate the great moments involving his character like the drinking, but he has to be basically a moral center while holding his own with the rest of the cast. And he's pretty inexperienced. He manages to do an awesome job.

I dunno, Junior is kind of a douche at times. He's still a good person, but yeah. If anyone is the moral center of the show, it's Jesse.

Really? Jesse? Junior is a douche sometimes? lol

 

[Avinexus]

Really? Jesse? Junior is a douche sometimes? lol

Junior and Skylar are the two most annoying characters in the show.

 

[kehs]

Really? Jesse? Junior is a douche sometimes? lol

His dad has cancer and is dying, they're broke, a newborn on the way, and all he can think about is getting a car and having breakfast.

 

[Zombie James]

Again...the most amazing scene in the series for me, I present you, Crawl Space:

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cWfK5JyD2bA

The acting, the sound editing...fucking chills me to the bone every time I watch this.

Spent the past month or so catching up with the entire series and this is, by far, my most favourite scene. The maniacal laughter, the music (which I thought was very Silent Hill-ish), it all worked.

 

[Mr. Saturn]

God! When are we going to get some real news for season 5, I can't take the wait anymore!

Does anyone here have some high quality Breaking Bad fan fiction they would recommend? Something equal to or even surpassing the quality of the show would be nice, k thx bye.

 

[big ander]

His dad has cancer and is dying, they're broke, a newborn on the way, and all he can think about is getting a car and having breakfast.

Maybe "moral center" was the wrong term, but I think his character suggests innocence and normality. Being a worried teen is fairly pedestrian and when it comes down to it Junior's a good guy.

fan fiction of quality does not exist for anything in my experience.

 

[Admiral Bone to Pick]

His dad has cancer and is dying, they're broke, a newborn on the way, and all he can think about is getting a car and having breakfast.

Guess that's why he set up a website to help pay for his treatment and went around the city setting up flyers when he went missing.

 

[shadyspace]

A show's moral center should be a rounded and compelling character. See: The Shield.

Who was the moral center in The Shield? I forgot.

 

[shadyspace]

You're either being purposely obtuse or you've never watched The Shield.

Eh, it's been quite a while since it went off air.

I guess this chick:

[kehs]

The deleted scenes show he was taking a cut from the proceeds. The flyers are just to keep up appearances.

I know, I was actually hoping for some hilarious fanfiction to be posted, but you're right, there is no such thing as good fanfiction.

Oh and as for the Shield discussion on the last page, I'm certain the character Shadyspace is referring to as the moral center, is Lem.

 

[Good Job Bob]

Lem? He's engaged in some shady stuff along with the rest of the crew.

Has to be Claudette.

 

[shadyspace]

Being pulled along into some shady shit precludes a character from being the moral center of the show? Come on, son.

 

[Mr. Saturn]

Lem? He's engaged in some shady stuff along with the rest of the crew.

Has to be Claudette.

Well I could be wrong but I recall in interviews with some of the cast members regarding what happens in season 5, Warning massive spoilers for season 5

Spoiler

Lem getting killed by the grenade, that it was a big deal since the show was killing off the moral center.

I guess it'd be more correct to consider Lem the moral center of the strike team, rather than the whole show?

Just finished Season 4. I started watching Breaking Bad about three weeks ago, and I'm now prepared to say it's one of the best television shows of all time.

Are spoilers allowed here? I'll black them out, just in case.

I noticed that when

Spoiler

Gus walks out of the room after the explosion, and the camera shows the front of his face, you can see the muscles in the back of his empty eye socket moving perfectly in sync with his remaining eye. Creepy, but neat.

It's more easily visible in high definition, but you can just about see it in this gif. DO NOT CLICK ON THIS IF YOU HAVEN'T SEEN THE LAST EPISODE OF SEASON 4!

If it has aired, it's pretty much fair game.

Yes it is. It's the best show on TV since 2009.

"Saul's name is a play on words for the slang expression "'s'all good, man," meaning everything is all right."

Holy shit, how did I not notice this?

I think he just topped Bob Loblaw for best lawyer name.

 

[crimzonflame]

I finally finished season 4. That very last scene in the end was a mind fuck. Its so crazy how in the beginning of the series you are rooting for Walt but I have no doubt that that will all change in season 5 if it hasnt already.

 

[-Pyromaniac-]

I will always root for Walt, as long as his enemies are worse people. And if his enemies are the cartel next season, BUCKEM.

 

[SystemShock2]

"Saul's name is a play on words for the slang expression "'s'all good, man," meaning everything is all right."

Oh damn, that's too cool. Right in front of our noses.

 

[noah111]

Do we think Jesse will ever get killed? I mean, I know he was supposed to be killed off a long time ago, but will he still be standing when Walt eventually bites the dust (one way or another)?

 

[Good Job Bob]

He'll kill Walt, naturally.

My money is on Walt killing Jesse for being a bitch and going to the cops.
