Gwynevere 08/15/23 8:26:53 PM #1:	Didn't have enough appreciation for this dude the first time I watched the show, but he's the antithesis of Walt in every way. He doesn't want his name on shit for his ego, he knows to leave well enough alone and enjoy the money from the gig he's got, and saw right through Walt's bullshit frame 1. BrBa is full of unlikeable characters, that's kind of the point, but every scene with this guy in it is just incredible I'll probably watch Better Call Saul after rewatching this, and I'm glad they brought Mike back as a character for that one --- A hunter is a hunter...even in a dream [She/they] <cite>Gwynevere posted [p:975473862] in Mike reall...

Walt could have saved her life because he walked in while she was choking laying on her back!!!!!!! All Walt had to do was turn her over to her stomach so she would have thrown up probably on the bed/floor instead he watched her for a bit, took some money (I forger exactly why he was there) and just left as Jesse was more important to the business than him having a girlfriend. I literally cried at the time when her parents were talking about her funeral and picking out her favorite dress. Jesse probably got her using again, but still :/ I definitely didn't like what Walt did in that moment :( He coulda definitely did something there. --- "A lesser talent couldn't have pulled it off.

Torgo 08/16/23 2:58:45 AM #37:	Is it blasphemous to say I thought Gus was a terrible character after a while? He's like the big bad for the second half of the series, and he's just too dumb to shoot Walter outright. The better meth revenue could not be worth all the trouble and risk it put him in. I didn't find it very believable and started to lose interest in that aspect of the show. --- If what you believe is truthful and just, you shouldn't have to posture as someone or something else. <cite>Torgo posted [p:975478950] in Mike reall...

Gwynevere 08/16/23 7:31:35 AM #42:	pegusus123456 posted... lmao what else would you call it? He was a police who brutally beat a suspect in his case. For real. Hank was a real piece of shit during that period of the show. He just ended up being one of the characters that realizes what a bad path he's gone down and doesn't try to lie his way out of what he did. DnDer posted... I think that had to do with his eye on the vendetta, especially in light of some of the stuff we learn in BCS, and thinking Walter could be a piece that could be manipulated to the end That's exactly what it was. Gus was playing a long game, with his number one goal to kill the rest of the cartel members associated with the Salamancas. He just never expected Walt to exploit Gus's hatred for Hector to catch him by surprise. Unrelated, but I also ended up really liking Saul lol. He really does embody that scummy lawyer with the lame billboards and radio ads super well.

boxoto 08/16/23 8:27:07 PM #45:	Doe posted... Hank beating up Jesse wasn't institutional police brutality though wouldn't you say? It was completely personal, at that moment Hank being a cop had zero to do with it and in the show it's indicated Jesse will win if he presses charges. I think it's a gray area. like, it was incredibly personal, but he still used his position, resources, image as a cop to be able to approach Jesse like that and be able to beat him. --- Don't you agree, Zach? https://streamable.com/xqplw1 <cite>boxoto posted [p:975493803] in Mike reall...

Gwynevere 08/17/23 1:42:24 AM #46:	I just finished the last episode of season 3, full measure. For years, my takeaway was that Walt only ever cared about himself, but upon rewatching, I think Jesse might be the only one he cares about in a strange way. There's so many decisions he makes to his detriment to work with Jesse, or in this case, save his life. He could have easily just let the two dealers kill Jesse and go on cooking for Gus, but he saves Jesse anyway. I can't quite figure out why that is; does Walt really care for Jesse for his sake, or does he just like having some sort of control over him? --- A hunter is a hunter...even in a dream [She/they] <cite>Gwynevere posted [p:975498178] in Mike reall...
