Oct 29, 2019 I don't know. Walt was just normal guy, I agree, but I think killing Krazy 8 triggered him to change so drastically. Walt was ready to die because of his cancer so what else he had to lose? Afterlife? He wanted money and all the situations that happened all along the way made him a bad guy... and it didn't feel exaggerated at all.
Oct 29, 2019 Wow, Hector's ding solo is huge, also Walt coming with that white punk rap vibes after dings >>>
Oct 30, 2019 What? I mean this is something that’s always going on within the show. It’s called Breaking Bad. the only unbelievable thing in breaking bad is him rigging a rotating machine gun to the trunk of a car and killing everyone perfectly.
Oct 30, 2019 I disagree. We're meant to piece together the time in between where Jr. was born til when he got diagnosed with cancer. There's reason to see why he would change into the bland and impotent Walt we saw at the start. Overqualified science teacher that isn't able to show his true intellect and enact change? Check Having a son with a disability and adapting to life with him in it, where it takes up a lot of emotional labour? Check Financial strain? Check Another baby on the way? Check Being bought out of Grey Matter and seeing them become uber rich, thinking what could've been and possibly harbouring resent/regret? Check Successful brother-in-law working for the DEA and from the outside, has a productive and adrenaline-fueled career? Check And possibly many more. After so many years, all these culminating factors would've weighed on him heavily. He's a prideful SOB, so of course he'd become bland. He was going through the motions before the diagnosis sprung him into action. And from there his ego was massaged as he got what he desired - money, power, control.
Oct 30, 2019 Good points, but no one knows him as that charismatic chemistry guy with long hair. When Walt does something out of the ordinary boring routine nobody believes and they think no way Walt would do that. No one says "now that's walt I remember!"
Oct 30, 2019 Because only a certain few probably got a glimpse of Walt in his heyday. And when he broke bad, it wasn't similar to when he was young. Both young Walt and Heisenberg Walt were out of the ordinary compared to his bland norm, but they're very different versions of him. So of course people wouldn't have proclaimed that "that's the Walt I remember!" It was a shocking and unfamiliar.
Oct 30, 2019 mm yes, but throwing explosives at your feet and destroying an entire floor of people while walking out unscathed is totally believable! lol f---ing r-----
Oct 30, 2019 I’m 64% sure he didn’t k--- anybody there. First time Walt killed was when he ran over two people to save Jesse. You tried way too hard to pull something that was unrealistic. Failed miserably. 0/10. You desperate twat.
Oct 30, 2019 yeah an explosion blows out windows on an entire floor, but doesn't k--- anyone. very believable. fa----.
Oct 30, 2019 I’m not sure what your point is exactly regarding his personality. Yeah he was a lame/nerdy/boring chem teacher and brother in law, then when he got in the drug world it brought out a different side to him. Like, isn’t it a psychological fact that your environment affects you? Also, Walt felt like a failure before the m--- world, because he was, then he was also diagnosed with cancer and set to die. Basically the ultimate failure. That’s why after transitioning to the drug world, he actually felt successful for the first time. He wasn’t a pathetic loser anymore. That’s why eventually it stopped being about making money for his family and by the end it was purely ego, pride and greed. Seems fairly realistic to me tbh. But yeah obviously a lot of the action stuff isn’t exactly the most realistic. But then it would’ve been a much more boring show if it was And wtf do you mean you can’t be a successful criminal without being “entertaining”? Do you think El Chapo got to where he is by being witty or being an entertaining emotional wreck like Tony Soprano? Or by having Tony Montana’s toddler tier temper? Your definition of realistic seems to be other TV shows and movies, not actual real life. Also there’s nothing weird about his family being shocked that he could do those things. Every criminal who’s walked this earth has had some family member or friend be “shocked” to find out about what they’ve done. Do you think criminals just have this permanent constant criminal personality and walk around acting and talking like criminals 24/7? Even at the extreme end of the spectrum with psychopath criminals and serial killers like Bundy were normal and nice with people, apart from those they weren’t killing. Even if you take the socially r-----ed psychos like Dahmer it’s the same thing. You think Dahmer walked around acting like a lunatic cannibal ? OP is r-----ed
Oct 30, 2019 Himmler the guy responsible for overseeing the final solution of jews almost fainted when he witnessed an execution because he got blood on him. On the Russian front he witnessed an execution which failed to k--- 2 woman after a firing squad. He lost his s--- when he saw them still alive in pain and cried to soldiers to quickly k--- them because he couldn’t bear to see them squirming in pain. That’s why he started using gas chambers as it was more “humane” My point is Himmler and probably most nazis seemed like boring normal people too, they didn’t act like Cartman or something. You would never know they were mass murderers. Himmler was the same socially awkward loser by the end of the war as he was before the nazis even existed It’s silly to think Walter White couldn’t do the things he did because he wasn’t some charismatic dangerous Chad in his earlier life
Oct 31, 2019 Maybe that's the case for kitchen tools, but humans do let experiences change themselves drastically, willingly or unwillingly.
