How about putting spoilers on whatever was said in that interview?

Done, but if the creator of the show gives an interview to Entertainment Weekly and doesn't indicate it as a spoiler then I assume he has no problem with it being known.
Not trying to be a dick, but I think most people would agree. |

I actually agree, but I think it's going to be Jesse. I'd almost put money on it at this point. |

I agree. I purposefully avoid the articles in EW for just that reason.

I see where your coming from but wasn't Jesse gonna be killed off at the end of season 1? I would think that Gilligan had and ending planned out for the end of the show beofre then. Not in detail planned out but the way it would end.
Mike's role only existed in that one episode in the second season because Bob Odenkirk wasn't available for filming that day. The very definition of a happy accident I think. |

not really - besides 'Mr Chips to Scarface', Gilligan really didn't have an exact ending planned out. They try to be as fluid as they can...

You are comparing a supporting role to the conclusion to a story arc. They only reason to even tell the story is cause it has a great end planned out. No?
do you really think every TV series has these detailed outlines of 4, 5, 6 seasons laying around? they DON'T |

oy. In many interviews Gillian has said he didn't know exactly how it was going to end.

Don't get so uppidy bro. I'm not saying all the details are all ironed out but I think Vince knows if Walt lives or dies maybe I'm wrong all people are different.

Did Skylar know about Gus specifically, and who he was? I'm trying to remember or figure out how Walt proactively killing a man who threatened the entire White family (Gus dragged Walt out in the desert and told him that he would kill everyone he knew, including his infant daughter) is somehow reason for her to be scared of *Walt*.

Re: Breaking Bad -- "Hazard Pay" -- 7/29/12
Finished this last night after being busy most of the week.
rotfl Skylon's meltdown had me LOL. The tension between her and Walt is interesting. Her facial expressions makes it seem like she's genuinely terrified of Walt. Did this all really happen based off her phone conversation with him after she found out Gus was dead? It's not like Walt is a mass murderer like Ted Bundy. He had to take out the guy who was a threat to himself and his family. :lol: at how Mike was kicking their asses with all those expenses. There is no doubt in my mind that Walt/Heisenberg is going to want to branch out on his own at some point. I'm also not in the "I hate Walt" camp. I still find him a compelling character and sympathetic to an extent. The character has evolved alot. BTW, I saw Cranston on the news last night being interviewed promoting Total Recall. His hair is growing back and he's clean shaven. I guess they won't start filming the back half of season 5 until later this year. |

I'm pretty sure it's all already filmed and mostly even edited, all 16 episodes mostly ready to go. Splitting it up was AMC's idea after the fact, not the show-runners.
July 3rd, 2012 - Last week the cast and crew of AMC’s Breaking Bad finished filming the first half of their final season and will remain on hiatus until November 2012 when they’ll resume shooting the show’s final episodes. |
Re: Breaking Bad -- "Hazard Pay" -- 7/29/12
^^^ Yeah that's what I thought. Cranston already mentioned they were taking a 4 month production hiatus since they are in no rush to film the back half.
|
Re: Breaking Bad -- "Hazard Pay" -- 7/29/12
They haven't even finished writing the final 8 episodes.
|
Re: Breaking Bad -- "Hazard Pay" -- 7/29/12
Then why the fuck are they calling this current run the final season? It's one thing to split it in half, separated by a year, but when they haven't even finished filming, it is so NOT the final season.

Re: Breaking Bad -- "Hazard Pay" -- 7/29/12
Mike is supposed to be being closely watched by the feds.
Yet, he is able to go in and see all the prisoners related to the case????????? |
Re: Breaking Bad -- "Hazard Pay" -- 7/29/12
I thought that was odd too, but then I remembered different branches of the government often fail horribly when it comes to communication.

Re: Breaking Bad -- "Hazard Pay" -- 7/29/12
I did enjoy many of the scene quite a lot in this episode --- the viewing of the locations, Walt telling the sister about the affair, the money discussion
|
Re: Breaking Bad -- "Hazard Pay" -- 7/29/12
I really enjoyed the thrust of this episode, but surprisingly Saul fell a little flat this ep I thought. I don't know why but his lines felt a little more forced and unnatural than in the previous episodes. Felt more like a different actor trying to be Saul than the slimy lawyer we all know and love. Maybe some of those early scenes (like going to the Lazer Base) were too obviously played for levity.
Still a great ep though, and I love how unpredictable and deliciously surprising this show is. For five years now I've never been able to predict to direction of this show or felt the writing was lazy. Moving from house to house for cooks under the guise of exterminators is brilliant writing, and I never saw it coming. I was also confused by Walt's little comment at the end of the episode. My first reaction was that he was threatening Jessie. Walt seemed pretty pissed when Jesse rolled over and offered Mike his share of the money, effectively shutting down Walt's argument. His comment almost seemed to me like, know your place - you're my assistant. Seemed weird, but I think you guys are right that he is probably talking about the need to kill some of the guys in jail rather than pay them off. Victor knew too much and was close to being arrested by virtue of getting spotted at Gale's house, so he had to die. This makes more sense to me. Cranston has just been great this season. I can't tell if Walt is just oblivious to Skylar's obvious repulsion towards him, or if he knows and gets some kind of enjoyment out of it. Now she sees him as strong, cold, and dangerous instead of some weakling always on the verge of death or failure and in need of charity. It's awesome how they have turned his character on the audience too. You just want to slap Walt for being dissatisfied with netting $170k a week. |
