ApexAftermath posted:It was brought up in relation to the prayer discussion in Breaking Bad. It was relevant enough for the point he was making. There's also a huge prayer reference in the Mel Gibson movie The Passion of the Christ, you guys should all go check it out RIGHT NOW! Guys if you enjoyed the buddy cop element of the relationship between WALTER WHITE and JESSE PINKMAN, you should all go check out 48 Hours Harry Potter's Dumbledore character has a pretty similar storyline to Gus Fring arc in Breaking Bad, why not go check it out?

Earlier in this thread, a few folks were saying that they didn't like the infusion on the part of critics of Christian morality into the show. I think it was a deliberate move on the part of the writing team to have that, though. Especially with the "Walt as the Devil" imagery. He resonates a lot with Paradise Lost's Satan too, incredibly powerful but ultimately struggling against some ineffable, higher force (Walt with the overarching, in-universe morality that damns his actions time and time again) and has the same motivation, that it'd be better to rule in Hell (dying in the meth lab) than serve in Heaven (Walt before the show began)

My thought was to make the wallpaper have 4 quadrants with each of the colors in the image rather than white space. The palette goes with ios 7's design themes pretty well. I'm loving with it in paintbrush although I know the results are primitive. brap fucked around with this message at 02:51 on Oct 14, 2013 |

I was pretty tired when I listened to it, but I thought he said that there was no agreement in the writers' room as to where exactly the line was directed. No time to go search for that part of the podcast though. You might be right.

Everything is exactly the same but with less production value (which was already pretty low in the pilot). Spanish Jesse has the same tattoo, same dialog, same escape from the raid. Spanish Jesse's tattoo looks like it was drawn on with magic marker

There's just a lot that lines up. Satan invents gunpowder in Paradise Lost, much like Walt makes explosives a few times. Jesse is big into carpentry, suffers a bunch for other people's sins (including his own), spends some time in a cave and has a spiritual resurrection. I just take it as an allusion, not like actual spiritual forces are involved in anything in BB or they are meant to be direct adaptations. Like how Walt has an LOTR One Ring symbolizing obsession, but the Nazi Meth Lab isn't Mt. Doom.

Ultimately Jr would find the guy and try to help him, and when the guy figured out that it was Walt's son he would have set off the suicide machine and kill them both. That is Dexter levels of terrible. Sagebrush posted:I think I found my new favorite Breaking Bad comic. This is sublime.

Breaking Bad definitely fits my top 5 shows. It was very consistent throughout the whole thing, the motives where there, the characters were there, everything made sense. I'm sorry I can't help to compare this to that train wreck of an ending in Dexter. I mean really? My last question for Vince is, What happened to Huell?

Whatever happened to the Cartel and that "Negro y azul" mariachi song from season 2? It was about how the cartel wanted to kill Walt because he was taking over their business, but as far as I remember it was never a thing: the cousins came to avenge Tuco, they weren't sent by anyone and the cartel never really cared about Walt. Was it a dropped plot point or they just thought it'd be funny to have that song in an episode? (It was )

The twins were sent by Don Salamanca to avenge Tuco's death. Hector was a former Cartel leader and he seemed to still hold a position of respect judging by that one meeting with Gus, Hector and that Cartel dude who died after Hank's big shootout. So yeah, the song was about the twins coming to get Walt.

Did anyone else get the impression that the Twins weren't the most formidble killers? I know they were supposed to have an air of Terminator about them but to me they just sort of looked really slow, the sorts of guys that could be defeated by breaking into a light jog. I'd be far more scared to learn Mike, Todd, Gus, Tuco, any of the Nazis, or Walt were coming after me.

Once Walt started working for Gus, he was off limits. Once Gus betrayed the cartel, getting him back in line became their priority.

Timeless Appeal posted:I think that Hank is genuinely kind of a badass and despite the way he often comes off, he's actually pretty brilliant. What I'm saying is, you're probably no Hank, son, and he barely survived the twins. I like to imagine that Hank, like Dean Norris, has a degree from Harvard College. As well as Marie having a degree from Northwestern University because purple.

I'm barely a skinny pete, but for two guys billed as super hitmen they sure got their arses handed to them quite badly by a lone cop.

They lost the element of surprise because of outside intervention, and the cop was armed with a vehicle. They still beat the cop to within an inch of his life, and would've had him dead if not for hubristically choosing to go get the axe to kill him. They were also 100% going to kill Walt until Gus called them off. It's pretty clear that they can get just about anything done unless Gus intervenes.

I thought that if Gus hadn't dealt a major blow to the cartel via his carefully constructed revenge plot, they would have been in a position to kill Walt, one way or another. Gus put in the time and planning, Walt got to reap the benefits. I doubt there's any way he could have built his "empire" without Gus first clearing the way for him (but then again, Walt always was luckier than everyone else...)
