Found some breaking bad trivia to prepare us for the finale, I'll post the interesting ones: Walt's car is a well-used 2003 Pontiac Aztek, repainted a pale non-factory dull-green chosen by series creator Vince Gilligan perhaps to mimic a faded original paint job and thus symbolize Walt's previous bland existence. The windshield has been broken and replaced several times due to catastrophes both great and small, all traceable to Walt's descent into the drug world. Though Pontiac's Aztek was widely derided as ugly, overpriced and beset with quality issues (it never met sales quotas), it has built a loyal following for its versatility and is considered something of a good used-car deal - a deliberate analogy maybe to Walt's survival skills in his dangerous second career. The show's production keeps at least 2 Azteks equipped for different filming situations. The actor who portrays Walter Jr. in the series (RJ Mitte), actually has cerebral palsy like his character on the show. However, his real life affliction is much milder than his character's, and he had to learn to walk with crutches and slow down his speech to play the part. Characters and their values are represented by the colors they wear. Skyler is usually dressed in blue and Jesse in yellow and red (when he is in recovery, he wears gray). Walter wears green because he is stuck between his family and the drug trade. When the Whites' daughter is born, pink is introduced to the spectrum. Similar color patterns show up during the series. The DEA agents, Hank and Gomez, wear orange, representing police. Marie is usually in purple and many of the other doctors on the show are seen in it as well. And Jane, the recovering heroin addict, wears black. The title of the series is spelled using the chemical symbols for bromine ("Br" ![]() ![]() When characters on the show are smoking meth, they are actually smoking sugar or rock candy but do not inhale. Walter White's alias, Heisenberg, is a tribute to Werner Heisenberg, who formulated the uncertainty principle, which states that it is impossible to determine simultaneously both the position and velocity of an electron or any other particle with any great degree of accuracy or certainty. In the beginning of each episode, the chemical formula C10H15N along with the number 149.24 and the word "Meth" can be seen just before the title Breaking Bad appears. C10H15N is the formula for methamphetamine, which has the molecular weight of 149.24. Lead actor Bryan Cranston stated in an interview that the term "breaking bad" is a southern colloquialism and it means when someone who has taken a turn off the path of the straight and narrow, when they've gone wrong. And that could be for that day or for a lifetime. During filming, the introduction of Wendy the prostitute was briefly interrupted when a non-actor attempted to pick up actress Julia Minesci, mistaking her for a prostitute. Samuel L. Jackson showed up unannounced during filming on the Pollos Hermanos set one day, dressed in his Nick Fury outfit from "The Avengers". Both productions of Breaking Bad and The Avengers were happening on the same studio lot, and Jackson wanted to be an extra during the scene being filmed. The producers denied his request to appear as Nick Fury on the show. A main plot point of Breaking Bad concerns the main character, Walt, being a bona fide chemistry genius. Marius Stan, who plays Walt's impressively-eyebrowed boss at the carwash Bogdan, in real life is an actual chemistry genius. He has a PhD in Chemistry, and still works in that field. Breaking Bad was his first foray into acting. The pseudonym for 'Bob Odendkirk''s character Saul Goodman is derived from "it's all good, man." Vince Gilligan revealed that AMC allowed only one use of the term 'Bleep' per season. Gilligan took this opportunity and used it with effect at all times. 1 Like |

"Breaking bad" received a typical boring "Hollywood end."The show should have ended after "Hank" arrested "Walt".Everything else after that was nothing but unnecessary prolonged drama.Good show but a poor end."The journey to the destination was more enjoyable than the destination itself." |

It's indiscernible how many people will have gotten away with their crimes if it ended then. All the loose ends were tied up and everybody got what they deserved. I don't wanna call you joyless but it will take a lot to appease you! |

"Breaking Bad" had a lazy finale(chewing gum for the eyes).The show's writers succumbed and gave the fans a "pat on the back";every ambiguity resolved and motives needlessly explained.It demeaned the depth of the characters and the story. |
Re: Breaking Bad Discussion Thread by chromatic: 9:24pm On Sep 30, 2013 |
Finally watched the finale, it was tough not checking social media all day( self imposed embargo)..Wow! What a show! Take a bow!! Neatly wrapped..I got no superlatives for the amazing 5years man.. |

Re: Breaking Bad Discussion Thread by Brisingr(m): 10:46pm On Sep 30, 2013 |
It ended exactly like I wanted also I enjoyed the skinny P and badger cameo. issues with finale guy, how would you end the show. |
Re: Breaking Bad Discussion Thread by tuagbo: 11:41pm On Sep 30, 2013 |
What made "Breaking Bad" a great show was the unpredictability of the storylines.The show's finale was too predictable and simplistic(it was like an Arnold Schwarznegger movie in the 1980s).The show would have ended perfectly when "Hank" arrested "Walt" but the writers preferred to spoon-feed the viewers by explaining everything.My biggest problem with the last episode was why the white supremacist leader cared if "Walt" thought he was a liar when "Walt" would soon be dead anyway(shoot him and get it over with!!)They should have learnt how to end a show from "The Sopranos." |
Re: Breaking Bad Discussion Thread by Brisingr(m): 8:28am On Oct 01, 2013 |
The sopranoes ending is crap,I love that show but that blacks screen stunt at the end ? Many people enjoy that but it didn't sit well with me no resolution what so ever the Tony survive or he got shot we will never know. But here Walter couldn't redeem himself but he tried at least an ending with Walter alive ,in jail or worse escaped with the money would suck big time. |
Re: Breaking Bad Discussion Thread by rhowly(m): 10:33am On Oct 01, 2013 |
Breaking Bad even before it's conclusion was rated 13th best series movie of all times. Def a stand out...satisfying ending or not |
Re: Breaking Bad Discussion Thread by Pet79(m): 12:20pm On Oct 01, 2013 |
Best Tv series so far dis year. What s great season finale. I will truly miss all d drama especially Mr. White d great Heisenberg and my stupid Jesse Pinkman who can not do anything right. If there is any consolation thank God they have started viewing Greys Anatomy Season 10 and I'm seriously waiting for walking dead season 4. Goodbye Breaking Bad |

Re: Breaking Bad Discussion Thread by Nobody: 1:09pm On Oct 16, 2013 |
My first impressions of this series was wrong, i went back and continued from where i stopped, am in season 4 now, and this is probably the best tv series i have ever watched, everything about the Movie just makes sense(unlike My favourite supernatural), but una don use spoilers scatter the thing for me o. 1 Like |
Re: Breaking Bad Discussion Thread by Iceman296: 7:30pm On Oct 16, 2013 |
..Great Movie, I think That Jesse Pinkman Character was Just the Cause of all the Trouble Walter white Encountered Especially in Seasons 2 &3. Ironically, Walter white Grew Emotionally Attached to Silly Pinkman. I love the way Saul Goodman Speaks and the Jokes Hanks Cracks Up! Breaking Bad is Undoubtedly a great Movie Check Out the Ratings metro.co.uk/2013/09/05/breaking-bad-is-officially-the-greatest-tv-show-of-all-time-3951769/ m.hollywoodreporter.com/bastard-machine/breaking-bad-greatest-series-tv-606472 |
