Shall we anticipate the FIFTH SEASON of the AMC series "Breaking Bad"? I think I may.

agree

lol wut

No great stories leave ambiguity. Not one.

dude made a bargain with god to pull off one last gambit right before he zonked and then found the key. The humor of him getting his dying wish (for the little it was worth) seems a lot more twisted and cool than if he just had a really long and elaborate dream.

my god how could you want a show to end with a dream

i do think walts fantasy would be more excusable than a snow globe because so much of the show is about his fantastical solipsism already

I think this sums up what we're dealing with here:

Norm Macdonald ‏@normmacdonald 1 Oct

As for breaking Bad,I was expecting an unambiguous ending,not one I have to fill in. Am I expected to believe the police kill an unarmed man

hes just working through it man give him a break

is he yanking people's chains? norm likes to fuck with people

that would be pretty awesome

or maybe norm's just dreaming his tweets?

About 6 months ago I saw him sincerely tweeting bible verses and beefing with atheists and my childhood died a little

haha

beefing w atheists is awesome tho

it's cool if you're trolling them but legit argument on twitter is ugh

Norm Macdonald ‏@normmacdonald 2 Oct

isn't this 100% counter to his own argument?

he said it was ambiguous 2 days ago and was upset about it but now he says it's unambiguous and if you think it's ambiguous you're an idiot

ha! i was really hoping this a prank. the bob saget roast speech of breaking bad theories.

Wooh! Even with Crtl+F, scrollercoaster is necessary, so a little dizzy now, and may be duplicating effort, but will risk it: here's a good interview with two BB writer-producers, explaining how and why some things happened (though not everything Terry Gross asks about Some of us have had our differences with her, esp. re the Americana-era Neil Young interview, but yeah this is good:http://www.npr.org/2013/10/03/228813142/breaking-bad-writers-this-is-it-theres-no-more

why the fuck are you guys taking norm mcdonald seriously

one thing it isn't is funny

he also has boring tweets about golf and shit

there's no such thing as boring shit tweets, matt

feel like diaper tweets are played out tho

i prefer colin quinn's twitter trolling and twitter feed in general but macdonald's golf tweets are pretty amazing as well, one of those things like neil hamburger retweeting ppl get food poisoning from taco bell that i might not actually laugh at anymore but it still always brings a smile

steve martin is convincingly funny

@normmacdonald: My favorite scene was the one where Walt imagines his wife to love him again and to touch Holly as a tear comes to her eye. Only Walt.

I don't know at what point the fantasy kicks in but the finale is not walt's fantasy it's a medley of flynn's and skyler's and jesse's fantasies

that's much more plausible.

fuck is badass about that?

"The Nazis that visited Skylarr" - Norm lurking itt?

From today's Albuquerque Journal:

for really?

Norm's taking good solid literary analysis to the show, is all.

@normmacdonald 14h
People are having trouble with this but a flash forward to a real plan and to a man's delusion are equal. Flash forwards are unreal.

people way overcomplicating BB's normal co-incidence driven plot. Walt always had a bunch of unlikely stuff work out for him--think of how he would show up in Hank's office just at the right time to overhear key info. It's just that in the past other people would end up messing up his schemes and he would have to dig himself out. In the finale he shed the need to save himself.

@emilynussbaum @JoyceCarolOates @normmacdonald sorry all...I read Norm first, then. Still, Norm you missed your calling in critical theory.

Norm Macdonald ‏@normmacdonald 3h
@lisagabrieletv @emilynussbaum @JoyceCarolOates you're very kind. Born to the rocky soil of rural Ontario, this was no option.

I dunno if it's M Night Cockfarmer syndrome, the prevalence of twists in cable television in the 80s-90s, or just the typical human desire to overanalyze shit, but this was the last show I expected for "what if all that DIDN'T just happen" speculation to occur. I mean, yes "dreamlike quality", and "answered prayers", but there's a wide gulf between saying the show felt surreal and acting speculating that "it was all a dream".

I fucking blame Inception. thanks Nolan.

@normmacdonald 4h
I'm being told Vince Gilligan said the finale was not a dream. I don't believe it was a dream, I believe it was the thoughts of a dying man.

Norm is one of the all-time best twitter trolls

the thing people are complaining about things going too smoothly in the final is more about i think the tone than walts accomplishments being unusual in the context of the show, the thing is walt wasnt struggling anymore, he was a peace

theres def some weird stuff in the ep tho, praying for keys and they fall from above, jesses woodworking fantasy, an old ass car w a remote key

an old ass car w a remote key

this was weird! i guess it's supposed to be, like, aftermarket.

yeah i mean its not impossible, but a strange choice

previous owner needed to be able to chuck cabbage into the trunk quickly

Walt's elaborate Wile E. Coyote schemes always worked in the past. I don't get how people can accept a giant magnet truck or the train heist or the cartel slaughter or all the ridiculous coincidences around the plane crash but then demand a completely plausible finale.
