Wojo 2,453 Posted November 7, 2018 Share Posted November 7, 2018 Pish posh. For some of the best reading at this forum, go back to the beginning of the Better Call Saul thread and reread the comments terrified about making a prequel series, that it won't be good, won't have an arc, will be comedic standalones, and will flop. Here we go again. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jay 37,369 Posted November 7, 2018 Author Share Posted November 7, 2018 Examing the life of Saul Goodman before he met Walter White makes sense. Showing us what Jessie gets up to after Walter frees him does not. Leave it to our imagination. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

KK 3,307 Posted November 7, 2018 Share Posted November 7, 2018 It's probably the latter. Or maybe some offshoot film set in the same universe. Still, some part of me thinks its a shame Gilligan never really found much success outside of the Breaking Bad world. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jay 37,369 Posted November 7, 2018 Author Share Posted November 7, 2018 Never? He's only 51 dude, plenty of stuff is in his future. He's been writing a miniseries about Jim Jones for years now that will come out on HBO Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mstrox 6,651 Posted November 7, 2018 Share Posted November 7, 2018 Breaking Bad, the series, is a complete story. It has a beginning and an end. No matter what they add to it, it will still stand up as its own Great Thing. I'm fine with them doing spin-offs, sequel movies, etc. If it's not very good, that's fine - I just won't watch it again. The show was still good. Same with anything else that's franchised. Stuff you don't like shouldn't diminish the stuff that you do. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Matt S. 493 Posted November 8, 2018 Share Posted November 8, 2018 18 hours ago, Quintus said: Jesse: The Movie Yeah, bitch! Makes me wonder if they will tie it in at all with the Better Call Saul flash forwards of Jimmy/Gene working at the Cinnabon. Maybe Jesse manages to find him, since he’s the only person he can turn to? They’re the only ones who can help each other? Jimmy’s complete isolation in last season’s opener was suffocating. Jesse Pinkman hasn’t been part of the Better Call Saul storyline so I kind of doubt it will lead to him (if anything I think Kim would be the one to track him down), but until we learn more it gives us some food for thought.

Jay 37,369 Posted June 26, 2019 Author Share Posted June 26, 2019 Well it has no fantasy, sci-fi, or romance aspects at all. It's largely about a high school science who turns 50 and finds out that his wife is pregnant and that he has cancer. He gets worried about his family not having enough money so he ends up cooking crystal meth with a former student of his who is now in his 20s, and from there they get more and more into the criminal world as they need to find dealers to distribute it, then people higher up in the drug cartels want to being selling his meth because it's better than theirs, and things keep getting worse from there. And then there are side stories largely all about various criminals, but also about some people including his brother in law trying to bring the cartel members and our "heroes" to justice. It's a terrific show with amazing writing and many scenes of great tension and character development and interaction, but if you'll watch it you'll probably complain to us about it being too confusing.

Jay 37,369 Posted June 26, 2019 Author Share Posted June 26, 2019 You asked what the show was like, and I told you. I also predicted you wouldn't like it, because I've been reading you talk about shows and movies for over a decade so I know what your tastes are, and based on that I predicted that you will not like this show. I don't see what the problem is and I don't care any more. Either watch the show or don't, it makes no difference to me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
