wtf its crazy drug cartel guys, it was personal and wanted to use his signature to finish him. They have used the Axe for killing multiple times now, its not unrealistic for them to want to use the axe.

is it unrealistic to be shot 20 times and survive? nope
is it unrealistic to survive a car accident after 3 cars ran into you? nope

is it unrealistic to survive a car accident after you've been hit by 20 bullets? hell yeah it is !

And why is the cagey Gus talking business on the phone?

well he says all the things that happened arent unrealistic, without considering the fact that a lot of those things happened after each other.

so my argument is: while all those thing could happen singularly, it is unrealistic that they happen all at the same time.

when did they all happen at the same time and it would depend on the degree of how bad the accident was obviously.

yeah have you ever seen an axe that looked like that? It's a ****ing chrome headed axe with a mirror finish. He wants an excuse to use that thing and a nearly dead DEA agent that killed his cous works just fine

THIS IS TELEVISION, NOT REAL LIFE!

Yet good television is, after my definition, something that tells a story which could happen in real life.

This was straight out of Mission Impossible or some crap movie.

why does it matter if it has happened 1 million times or not? it's the same argument troofers make. is it slightly unrealistic? maybe. is it in the realm of possibility? definitely.

plus it's a f-in tv show. The tension in that scene was only matched by the rv scene in the previous episode.

remember when Omar jumped a 5 stories building and survived with a broken leg and people complained how unrealistic that was and it turn out Donnie Andrews, the guy who inspired the character, jumped from a building 2 stories higher and hurt his ankle? same thing here.

there is still a difference

Wire spoiler:
Spoiler:
This scene comes close to the fake serial killer bull****. Completely unnecessary.

the guy that was locked up in jesse's basement didnt like the crusts on his sandwiches. Walt choked him to death and has been cutting them off ever since.

people focusing on the unrealistic nature of the final scene are kinda dumb. I had PJ's experience with it. I was in suspense and super excited through the whole scene. It IS television. We can have a degree of theater to it.

Like I said, my real problem with the episode was all the jesse/walt stuff.

I think people are misreading that line. It's not about the brother showing some honor to Hank and trying to give him a better death, it's about causing more pain. He wanted Hank to die horribly, piece by piece, for killing Tuco and crushing his brother, hence chopping him up with an axe.

never claimed they did. but there is not a single event in human history comparable to the crap that happened in the last 5 minutes.

we have to agree to disagree on this.

I can handle unrealistic stuff to some extent, but not all of it. It was too much for me.
