looks to me like his story ended up working out just fine so I'd say he made the right call



Brilliant analysis. Remaining enslaved was the "right call"? Are you implying he knew, or could have reasonably known Walt was going to execute all of them and save him?

Because if you are, you're dumb. And if you aren't, you're still dumb, because his "plan" was to remain enslaved.

Dipshit.

Really? Staying enslaved "kept everybody else safe". So Jesse is now christlike? That's super interesting. Tell me more about this.

Why? so you can continue to miss the point about him being a broken man?

How the frick not?

Todd had more experience using P2P with Walt when he hit 70 solo than Jesse did while hitting 90+ on his first solo attempt.

The mountain of cash Walt accumulated was from cooks with Todd.

And I dont think he was as open of a book with Todd.

If you say so

There are cooks we didnt see with them

Not near as many as he had with Todd. Again, the mountain of cash Walt accumulated came from cooking with Todd.

Jesse was able to hit 90+ prior to them using all of the first barrel of methylamine they stole.
quote:

And I'm basing all else on what I saw from the story, and how he comes off

They story made it explicitly clear that Todd sucked as a cook. It was a major plot point, but go ahead and make up your own story, if you think it’s more enjoyable.

Because he had killed Gus and had the market. And euro market.
Remember the $90+ million to their $3?..for 3 months? Walt went from 50 to 51 with jesse.

I'm not saying Jesse sucked at all. Jesse was great had talent and is on par with walter after walter taught him how to do it. Only after walter taught him. Walter wanted to teach him, walter enjoyed being a teacher to those wanting to learn. What I am saying though, is that I believe todd could have improved with a year under his belt with walter. That's why jack was wanting him to do more Cooks with todd as the stipulation on killing pinkman.

Now, was todd as good as jesse? I do not think so, he cared about impressing superiors more than the actual art of it and didnt care as much as about it as he did. Kinda like playing the chords on a guitar, but with no soul behind it. All I am saying is that I think he was a person with a mind capable of improving his percentage number with more time learning.

Damn straight on that. I've been consistent in my disdain for the idea of this movie from the beginning.

Watched last night, enjoyed it, but wasn’t what. I expected....

Solid last two episodes of the series and like other said, didn’t take away from the show, but didn’t think it was “movie worth’

7.5/10

This is where I'm at - instead of a page of text as an epilogue for Pinkman's "rest of the story" - they film it and it doesn't detract from the main BB storyline.

It also opens up a "Pinkman's Paradise" show in Alaska once BCS wraps.

Which could be interesting, IMHO.

I watched it last night and enjoyed it. Was nice seeing Jesse Pinkman finally get some peace. Although I thought Jesse Plemons as Todd really stole the show. Great actor.

Jesse Plemons as Todd


Aside from being obese now...

I remember seeing him in Fargo and being shocked how much weight he had gained. Then when they first showed him over the cage with his face somewhat obstructed I thought Vince would shield a full view due to his weight gain, but then he went all in. He's def smaller than when on Fargo, but dude is still 50+ lbs over what he was originally on the show.
