Does somebody have a link for next week's trailer?

My take on this scene was it showed Todd truly is just a sadistic psycho. It looked to me like he was treating it like a trophy.

how much would the tanker be worth if it were the only 22,000 gallons in the world? because that's effectively what the phoenix dealer's situation is. he doesn't have the first notion as to how to rip off a train and get away with it.

no 'may have' about it. this was one of sepinwall's worst reviews in some time. this episode was quite strong. the show promised to bring us scarface. how can you be surprised when it turns out scarface has a fast-paced life?

the pacing changed. that doesn't make it off. we've basically just had the climax of the whole series arc. and gilligan has told a hell of a story.

it makes sense to speed the pace. not only as a tactic of suspense-building but also because being a meth kingpin implies dealing with emergent situations in a big way.

were this 13 episode final season, i would not have been surprised to see an action-packed sixth episode. indeed, the sixth episode of season 4 of the wire moved a lot of the plot along a lot, with naimond meeting bunny and carcetti winning, and a couple other things. i'll grant that the series arcs are in some sense incomparable, but i can't compare breaking bad to anything else right now

You seem to have missed the many posts I've made in other threads ripping him. He's good on BB- but overall I think his fastball has lost a lot

yup. I also was wondering about this. If it's a market buy out, obv the cost is a lot more than the raw material.

Enough holes in this ep for it not be the goat. But god damn Aaron Paul killed it.

in Team America, yes.

yeah good point.

k I'm losing my mind now because I re-read the review and can't find any reference to the whistling scene at all

the perfect timing of the missing boy news report was more contrived than anything about walt's cuffing.

What perfect timing? They seem to watch a decent amount of TV on the cook while waiting for things or after they're finished. We saw like 2 minutes of it.

pretty sure mike was day dreaming when he tied walt up and left for that meeting. he yawned like he was just waking up from being half asleep. he's old and just pulled an all nighter watching walt remember.

I have absolutely nothing new to offer, but I loved it. Less then the previous couple, but loved it.

Seeing the preview and knowing the name of the next ep makes me REALLY happy.

this is a solid point.

I just realized final ep of this season is labor day weekend.. I have a wedding that day. I was already mega-tilted by these people having their wedding on a Sunday of a long weekend which is just an insanely huge dick move, but now it's costing me BB and requires me to avoid spoilers for a whole day. mother****er.

DOE'TH!

Dinner scene practically had me in tears. Masterful performance by Aaron Paul.

just finished the ep

awesome. dinner scene was quality

Really underwhelming episode.

I think he was the military leader guy in Stargate Universe.

because if he didn't leave, Walt would never get the drop on Mike, and the MM would be sold.

so they had to have SOME reason for Mike to leave.

Which is ******ed, because he is about to complete a 15,000,000 dollar deal, its not like he needed that 24 hours RIGHT THEN because we know the cops didn't follow him to the warehouse because he told us in the episode he's not that stupid walter.


One of the few times during my viewing of this show where I thought "that is completely ******ed! where the **** does Mike have to go that is going to stop him from

a. not doing this deal

and

b. leaving Walt 5 feet from the stuff he doesn't want him to steal and gave him a speech about how he is going to be there ALL NIGHT until the deal goes down.




terrible writing, but whatever

walt is a giant douchebag now. when he started this, he needed less than 1,000,000 to provide for his family.

The dude is now 51, he will be dead within 25 years. He has the chance to take 5,000,000 now and be completely free and safe to live his life out.

He doesn't want that, he doesn't want a nest egg for his family. He hates his life, his wife, and himself.


all he wants now is to be the big bad meth man and make people respect his formula.


turning down this money now is 1000x worse than during down the charity in season 1.

One thing I like about Breaking Bad is its kind of visceral and and they don't show you things enough to where it doesn't impact you as much. Like in James Bond movies nobody cares about deaths in Breaking Bad you do. With that being said, I am really losing my ability to fear a gun held by Mike pointed at Walt or Jesse.

missing boys fingerprints are on the jar.


other than that, don't know

Are there really that many egomaniac guys who are into Empires who have no desire to have sex with young women? This has to be the most unrealistic part of the show.

Getting lame.
