HaRRicH 07/15/22 7:30:22 PM #28:	A thought: this is the most blackmailable position Kim has been in before. She and Jimmy are married, Schweikart only had suspicions...but Gus and Mike now have Kim on-camera with her intent to kill at Gus's door. It's not that we expect them to go through the courts on her, but does Kim know that? Maybe with Mike, but with Gus? She also has the most to lose with such a video being released from their security footage. I don't know where that thread of thought leads entirely -- does Gus coerce her away or coerce her to work for him, does she live there knowing that exists or does she get herself disappeared because of it, etc. -- but it now seems like an avenue for power over Kim. ~~I'm also not sure that Kim's reason for going there ready to kill him will be considered~~...~~acceptable~~. --- O P E R A T I O N O U S T : Nominate SHEIK! https://i.imgur.com/OpudFxm.jpg <cite>HaRRicH posted [p:966603496] in Better Cal...

She could and should have won it every year apart from season 1 That said I'm a huge fan of Julia Garner so I don't begrudge her winning that at all I dunno... Season 2 she still wasn't that strong of a character and would have had to go up against Dame Maggie Smith's dowager countess from Downton Abbey and I'm not buying her winning that soon. Season 3 is also questionable due to its air date. The show started its third season before the cut off but finished after so either she's up against Ann Dowd (Aunt Lydia from Handmaid's Tale) which she could win or she's up against Thandiwe Newtown (Maeve, season 2 of Westworld) which she should not win. Hell, to even win for seasons 4 or 5 she would need to beat Julia Garner (Ruth, Ozark) and while I could see her taking it from Julia once, I don't think she could manage it twice. Even though the show ended up going off the rails in the last two seasons she was never not outstanding as Ruth. She's good. Very Good. But to take it *all* of those years? I don't believe she deserved it all of them. But she should have earned at least one by now! --- "If you ever feel good about yourself, just look on the Internet." - Ryan Reynolds <cite>ChichiriMuyo posted [p:966702463] in Better Cal...

Season 2 she still wasn't that strong of a character and would have had to go up against Dame Maggie Smith's dowager countess from Downton Abbey and I'm not buying her winning that soon. Season 3 is also questionable due to its air date. The show started its third season before the cut off but finished after so either she's up against Ann Dowd (Aunt Lydia from Handmaid's Tale) which she could win or she's up against Thandiwe Newtown (Maeve, season 2 of Westworld) which she should not win. Hell, to even win for seasons 4 or 5 she would need to beat Julia Garner (Ruth, Ozark) and while I could see her taking it from Julia once, I don't think she could manage it twice. Even though the show ended up going off the rails in the last two seasons she was never not outstanding as Ruth. She's good. Very Good. But to take it all of those years? I don't believe she deserved it all of them. But she should have earned at least one by now! </quote> ... Copied to Clipboard!
Mega_Mana 07/20/22 12:38:13 PM #43:	Reading the Mistborn books right now, and now hearing one of the character's voices (\|\|Clubs\|\|) as Mike Ehrmantraut has made it twenty times better. I don't know if applying Mike far and wide for everyone would work out, but here, being blunt and matter-of-fact and crabby seeming at all times? Yes. To the episode itself, \|\|it's amazing all around. One of the things that really popped out is just... how much things changed. We saw the Goodman & Associates sign being lifted up only to be a completely different sign cutting back. The new decal on the door was different. Just so much effort and bit-by-bit coming together of everything only for Jimmy's world to be completely shattered and fall into the void, a black hole where everything is sucked away and we wake up years later with Saul as he exists in Breaking Bad. Jimmy's life has no more meaning, and therefore everything from Kim leaving on has no meaning.\|\| --- "In my headcanon, some staffer saw Trump pull out his phone and start typing so they just Terry Tate Office Linebacker'd him out of his shoes." - FFD <cite>Mega_Mana posted [p:966709052] in Better Cal...

Or rather how he doesn't have a choice but to play the game. Saul couldn't choose either, ~~but Kim could~~. Super relevant to that episode. Also I read something about him planning the Salud assassination there. Since he was given an open drink, which has a blood iron flavor, and just recently saw Eladio drinking from an open container (sangue por sangue). So it was essentially Gus' garden state style call to action. --- _foolmo_ he says listen to my story this maybe are last chance <cite>foolm0r0n posted [p:966773894] in Better Cal...
