That Metastasis extended trailer actually got me excited. I will watch, if only to see the changes they make, and for the sex scenes with Cielo Blanco

A whole mess of Breaking Bad characters in 8-bit form: http://studiostobie.com/studio/?p=1040 You can see a little better on the website, since mousing over brings up a little magnifying glass type thing. Here's the whole list of who's there: Walter White Heisenberg Mr. Lambert Mr. White Jesse Pinkman Jesse Pinkman 2 Skyler White Walter White Jr. Hank Schrader Marie Schrader Saul Goodman Gus Fring Mike Ehrmantraut Steven Gomez Badger Skinny Pete Combo Tuco Salamanca Hector Salamanca The Cousins Jane Margolis Ted Beneke Victor Gale Boetticher Lydia Rodarte-Quayle Todd Bogdan Wolynetz Krazy 8 Wendy Mr. Pinkman Mrs. Pinkman Gretchen Schwartz Dr. Delcavoli Donald Margolis Tim Roberts ASAC Merkert SAC Ramey Clovis Holly White Group Leader Kaylee Ehrmantraut Old Joe Andrea Cantillo Brock Cantillo Huell Kuby Tyrus Kitt Dennis Markowski Declan Chad Carmen Molina Dr. Belknap Emilio Koyama Ben Louis Jake Pinkman Ken Elliott Schwartz Farley Hugo Archilleya Gonzo No-Doze Spooge Spooge’s Lady Tortuga Getz Francesca James Kilkelly Rival Dealers Tomás Cantillo Pamela Benicio Fuentes Juan Bolsa Duane Chow Lawson Gaff Don Eladio Max Arciniega Joaquin Salamanca Barry Goodman Chris Mara Peter Schuler Herr Herzog Dan Wachsberger Ira Benny Ron Forenall Drew Sharp Uncle Jack Jack McGann Andrew Holt Anthony Perez Isaac Conley William Moniz Harris Boivin Raymond Martinez Vince Gilligan

In It For The Tank posted:I love that there is apparently a stock camera angle for dialogue scenes where it's a 3/4 view. It looks like something out of a high school film project. You can see it when Walt is reacting to his diagnosis and again when he's talking to Jesse. Would you believe this is actually much higher quality than the average latin soap opera? My most positive thought was something like "Oh, they at least managed to copy that camera angle from the original in a not very embarrasing way". edit: Also, Walter "Gets twisted", he doesn't "Break Bad" according to Jose Rosas Yes, of course I'll watch it Last Chance posted:Agreed, fellas!

So Bob Odenkirk got cast in FX's Fargo show. I mean it's possible he could be on the cast of 2 different cable network shows at the same time, I guess, theoretically...

I much prefer tv to films now anyways and the more talent that wants to do tv the better I think.

Rehashing an old movie that didn't really have any loose ends as a miniseries instead of coming up with something new and creative. They've had a few misses, but for the most part the Coen's past work has been fantastic. I just don't see a Fargo miniseries as anything but a lazy cash grab. I'd be delighted to be proven wrong though. edit: It might undermine my point to say that I'm going to watch the HELL out of Metastasis, but I don't care. Even if it is as bad as it looks I plan to enjoy every minute of it.

If the Coens are actually attached to it in any meaningful way it will probably have decent production values. I'm just skeptical of the idea that Fargo can be the setting for a season's worth of interesting story without feeling like we're just loitering on the decaying set of a Coen brothers movie long past wrap. I'd be excited about a truly original work from the Coens, but spending a season in Fargo just sounds like they wanted to do a show and didn't have any better ideas. It's more than a "vibe." The other issue is that by sinking time and effort into this they have less to come up with another film. But again that's just my gut reaction and I hope I'm wrong. I'll give the thing a chance if it happens.

Wire sucked, Breaking Bad #1. Also, Badger and Skinny Pete have it right, B5>DS9. The only show that comes close to Breaking Bad is Always Sunny in Philadelphia. Totally different genre and totally different progression. But that is in keeping with the style. Breaking Bad started out amazing, yes. Rather than go into some pitch about the plot (which doesn't do BB justice) I just ask people for an hour of their time. Everyone knows that pilots are a show's weakest episode. I mean, unless a show survives too long and decides to suck or something like that. But in terms of cohesiveness and poo poo like that. I clarify that point because it is worth making explicit. Then I show them the pilot of Breaking Bad. Works every time. Boom. So Breaking Bad started off good. But then it magically kept getting better. The way it played out, it almost doesn't even loving matter. Pick a random number on your calculator and hit "x^2" and pretty soon it maxes out. Doesn't matter if you start with 2 or 2 million. Breaking Bad happened to start out high but, drat, it got exponentially better. drat. Always Sunny is a different beast. Breaking Bad is Honda -- Continual improvement! Always Sunny is the Iron Cross. They let everybody know precisely where they were from the get and then just held on. And held on. And held on. A different kind of impressive, but no less worthy. Edit: As someone raised outside the Christian tradition, I seem to be missing something when it comes to Breaking Bad (?) People keep talking about how obvious it is that God and the Devil are characters and how everyone is a rotten sinner and such. I don't get it. Rather than present that as a given, could someone explain that one in more detail for me? Shbobdb fucked around with this message at 12:41 on Oct 12, 2013 |

Vince Gilligan has stated that his beliefs about morality influence the show's arc (no poo poo!), and cites things like the plane crash as Hellfire raining down around Walt as punishment, etc. Though he probably doesn't mean this as literal in any way, since "is God real, is Satan real?" doesn't add anything to the apparent consequences of Walt's actions. Other than small things like that, I don't see much of anyone saying that God/Satan are 'characters in the show'. Capntastic fucked around with this message at 13:25 on Oct 12, 2013 |
