Breaking Bad

I'm with the Cardinal on this - I patched Better Call Saul after the first season became a chore but I rather enjoyed El Camino.
Saul's story isn't particularly good, especially the ridiculous brother storyline. But, without giving spoilers, the general storylines of breaking bad comes into it more in season 3 & 4.
It's almost overlapped the start of Breaking Bad now. Not sure they can go beyond a 5th season unless it morphs into a sequal or something.

Seen a lot of people complaining about it on Facebook saying how shit it was. I don't get all the criticism. Yes it was quite slow at some parts but so was BB. My only criticism was the weight of plump Todd. They should have made him go on a diet and training regime to get back in shape for the part.

I also really enjoyed it, was engrossed the full duration and it seemed to fly by. A solid 8/10 at least.
Did the film really need to be made? Not really.
Am I really, really glad it was? Absolutely.
Yip, agreed. I was worried that it was going to be Jesse on the run, but it was very much Jesse on the run. Really stripped back.

It's a film that's made a few times a year and I'll probably forget about it by next week, but I really enjoyed it, I'm glad it exists, and it certainly didn't do the ending of BB any harm.

That’s exactly what I was thinking. Gilligan should’ve insisted on it. He looks horrendous.

There must be more than just me who liked Breaking Bad but didnt neccesarily rate it way up there like many do....

I would recommend a second watch through. I am appreciating the quality of it much more.


I appreciated the early series a lot more second time round.

I loved breaking bad but never felt it was at the level of something like the sopranos. If the sopranos is ever on tv I will stick it on regardless of episode. Wouldn’t say the same for BB.

In one of the early scenes, you see night becoming morning in Albuquerque and then various buildings. There is a fast food chain called Twisters. I think that was the old Los Pollos Hermanos restaurant?

It’s where Los Pollos scenes were filmed.
