No kidding. Very distracting, tbh.
He did gain a lot of weight for Fargo season 2. Either he didn't ever lose the weight, they filmed his scenes weeks after Fargo wrapped or he gained weight again for another movie. Either way, it's distractingly but I'm glad his character was in it, he's one of the more interesting characters in the show.
4.5/5 pretty great and watchable too. Surprised by the quality, was worried that it could be a mess.
I enjoyed it. Much better than I expected. Basically the final 2 episodes of BB to wrap the story up.
Todd gained weight so his ties could match his wife's tbh
Seems so far the ST community approves of the movie. That's encouraging.
El Camino was a drawn out episode... it was alright but i wouldn't see it a second time. 3/5
tbh... it dragged quite a bit, felt more like a series of flashbacks then an actual story, and imo was just unnecessary. it still basically ends where breaking bad ended.
vacuum guy's shtick was completely unbelievable tbh. pretty disappointed overall
The actor who played him literally died the next day the movie premiered on Netflix. RIP
solid movie. Fun for BB homers like me. Was cool seeing old characters like Pete and Badger. When Pete said you're my hero prob best moment in the movie.
Old vacuum guy being a stickler for 1800 more dollars was dumb.
Aaron Paul did great, he's perfect for that role.
Overall the movie reminds me of a fan fiction epilogue for an ending that left some dissatisfied or with questions unanswered. Like Vince Gilligan did a fan fiction of his own work lol
had no idea, RIP. not sayin anything about him or the acting, but the character was completely unbelievable. oh here's close to 250k on the table, lemme not make this deal over 1800
It seemed kind of consistent with his character but overall it was pretty obtuse McGuffin manufacturing. RIP Robert Forster though. I'll always respect Tarantino for casting him as a lead in Jackie Brown.
I'm cool with this as a coda for BB; you can tell Gilligan and Paul love the character but there's nothing left to say about him. I do want to know if anything else is going to happen with Gene. His scenes are almost more compelling than Jimmy's.
I have to believe that those scenes are leading somewhere. On that note... they are taking ing forever with this latest season of BCS.
They need to wrap this up before Jonathan Banks dies.
I can't imagine they have much more than one season left now that Jimmy has gone full Saul... and what's left to do with the Mike/Gus storyline?
I would guess two, tbh.
it was especially odd given that that he refused to collect the original 125 on its own, but was making the guy pay 250k instead of 248,200.
I found myself in show paralysis last night and spent about 15 minutes scrolling through Hulu, Prime, Netflix and couldn't decide on anything.
Decided to re-watch BB. So good. I'm looking forward to being able to binge it instead of waiting a year in between seasons.
Then cap it off with El Camino.
I was in the same boat and watched a couple season 3 episodes while deciding. But it was too good and I had to re-watch the whole thing again.
I think they could've made it a good running series once Walt got into "the empire business"; but clearly certain people wanted to wrap it up. Possibly Giligan as an artist wanted it to not be drawn out; and possibly Cranston wanted to move on. Aaron Paul was still young and would've stayed on that gravy train, tbh.
Spoiler Alert.
In El Camino, I thought the part where Jesse wouldn't take out Todd when he had the gun was just some for a story line. I really didn't think that was true to the character whatsoever.
It's because he needed access to Todd's place. He knew he had stashed money there.
Possibly. If I rewatch it, I'll have to see.
So I finally watched this (quarantine making me catch up with all must see screen fiction). The show it's obviously great but pretty much everyone agrees on this, so, what's the fun of bringing that up?
Instead, what I want to point out, is that I'm not sure all that on screen crying by baby Holly White doesn't fall under the category of child abuse, tbh. There's one scene in particular where she looked straight up scarred for life terrified, tbh.
