Shall we anticpate the AMC series "Breaking Bad"? I think I may.

Jesse is so not going to kill Gus.

Wouldn't it be in Gus's interest to make sure his associates know how to cover their financial tracks? I don't understand the silent manner in which they're treating Walt, whether he deserves it or not. They're still in business together.

Has Walt killed anyone in cold blood yet, point plant? Because I imagine Gus will be his first. And then Mike the pragmatist will walk up to Walt, all cool-like, and be all, good job, now you better run. And then the last season will be Walt on the run, and his family in legal jeopardy.

Basically none of the financial stuff in the show makes sense at this point

xp

I also predict the season will end with Walt personally killing Gus. But one shouldn't second guess Breaking Bad really.

I predict the season will end with mike and jesse riding off into the sunset together, in a winnebago

Has Walt killed anyone in cold blood yet, point plant? Because I imagine Gus will be his first.

shot the guy near the end of s3, after running him over. did he also kill krazy 8? may have killed some dudes when he blew up that building with the chemical the guys thought was meth. could be more i'm forgetting.

Wait, who did Walt shoot in S3?

(Ha, point plant is funnier than point blank!)

Krazy 8 was a mix of cold blood and self-defense, he was gonna kill him but didn't, but then Krazy 8 got free and attacked Walt. And Walt killed him in the ensuing fight. iirc.

xpost - he shot the drug dealer guys who killed the kid

RUN

lol

would have been better if he said LOL

Huh. I could have sworn he just ran them over. Where did he get the gun from? Didn't he buy his first gun in the first minutes of this current season?

He ran them over, then used the still living guy's gun to finish him off

Like this?

virtuoso shit

it was but at the same time i'd like to see jesse deliver a few meaningful lines without the CRAZED INTENSITY so HARD IN YOUR FACE

(which is not entirely fair; he has - and it makes sense for a young guy like him, in his position, to flip back and forth between jaded cockish flippancy and SMOLDERING RAGE.. i think what i want from jesse is for him to get his shit together enough to play it cool without being a jackass, and this being a well-written drama that is the one thing i'm never going to get)

yeah i was gonna say, dramatic range wld be....dramatically out of character

And then the last season will be Walt on the run, and his family in legal jeopardy.

then they can team up with the Botwins

that's why pinkman is so hard to watch -- you never know if you're getting the smarmy charmer, the scary addict, the frightened manchild or what
i did not know at the start of that scene that he would go full on "you were CUSTOMERS" but there he was, going there
i want him to get his shit together so badly but he keeps not doing that

luvd him bringing the real to those recover fools

TBF, I think shooting an innocent guy in the face with no warning requires a slightly different sort of recovery. He should crash a Hitmen Anonymous meeting and see how his rage shit flies.

ha ha haa!

rafael van der vaart is a fat jesse pinkman, a fat jesse pinkman.

i think what i want from jesse is for him to get his shit together enough to play it cool without being a jackass, and this being a well-written drama that is the one thing i'm never going to get

This is because Jesse is stupid and thank fuck for that because it's given us so much drama and excitement.

When Jesse said "pop the trunk" the other week I did briefly wonder if that was a deliberate Yelawolf reference on someone's part, and then dismissed it.

well they're equally annoying characters

lol jesses mental image of himself is basically yelawolf

ha ha, yes

jesus christ @ this ep

wow best episode in a while in my opinion. maybe going a little hard on godfather/scarface mashup stuff but fuckin A that was effective

those last 10 min... damn.

I love that they run the episode twice because seeing the opening scene again is always, always great & especially this time

btw Hector is the actor who had the chainsaw in the Miami scene in Scarface - that fuckin guy

fucking rad

dammmmmnnnn

Great ep (not surprisingly, very little Walt & family action -- the goofy music vacuum bag closet scene felt like a bit of a bone thrown to her contract or sthg) but I wish we would see more of the Chilean chemistry student.

Not surprisingly, I am fixated on the dialect differences in Gus's/Hector's/Chilean student's Spanish. Gustavo does *not* speak with the facility of a native speaker. I thought for sure this could become a plot point -- maybe it will?!

I only say native because he is supposed to be Chilean. If the actor Giancarlo Esposito was bilingual as a child, he would still speak a different sort of Spanish than he does on this show.

wiki

Esposito was born in Copenhagen, Denmark to an Italian father and African-American mother. His mother was an opera and nightclub singer from Alabama, who once appeared on the same bill as Josephine Baker. His father was from Naples, and worked as a stagehand and carpenter.[1][2] Esposito lived in Europe, New York, and Cleveland until the family settled in Manhattan when he was six.

esposito was fucking RAD in this ep; glad we got to see him stretch his legs a bit

I fear the deal with the characters' accents is they all speak Spanish poorly

Marie not wearing purple.
Is it going to come out that Gus was a general in the Chilean military junta?

The student spoke beautiful Spanish and was clearly a native speaker, but I'm not sure he sounded particularly Chilean. I don't know what street children in Santiago sound like though, really. He sounded Caribbean/costeño to me. Possibly Colombian?

Totally confused though because AMC ep guide says that the chem student's name was Max Arciniega, which is the actual name of the actor who played Krazy-8. Ep guide says character "Max Arciniega" is actually named James Martinez. Either way, his Spanish was very easy to listen to and understand, totally natural. Unlike Gustavo's.

so was that Gus' lover or what

didn't enjoy this as much as the week before. interesting ep - but a little too much jumping around.
why are we just seeing scenes with Gus and wheelchair guy now?

xpost oooooooohhhhhhh

ah, yeah i didn't get that angle but it makes sense

i did wonder about his preference earlier, but hadn't thought about that last night!
