What does /tv/ think about it?
>"good but not breaking bad"
I personally think it's an enjoyable show, and I'm hype for the third season after how the second season ended.
nothing happens : the show
>>81263282
its better than breaking bad ... its so fucking comfy i can't even put it in words
cinematography is beautiful, acting is great ... i love watching jimmy do "literally nothing".
Its just maximum comfyness and theres nothing similiar on tv/film that makes me more happy. Its the only show i can zone out with from the world. No idea why but i reaaaaaally love it and i hated Breaking Bad.
>>81263428
Agree, that's what I loved about Breaking Bad too, the cinematography is just fucking beautiful.
Surprised you hated Breaking Bad though, why's that?
>>81263465
>why's that?
its great from a technical standpoint, acting too i just think the characters are super annoying and i can't identify with Walters "struggle".
Just sell the fucking drugs and stop crying. It just annoyed the shit out of me. It could have been so much more. Also Season 4 was just AWFUL. Trapped in this dumb basement and it always felt like Walter never really made it anywhere. He was always just the bitch of the chicken guy.
Really lackluster and frustrating to me. I prefer The Sopranos or even Boardwalk Empire.
Maybe thats why i like Jimmy so much. Hes a rat and he loves being a rat.

thats just ur opinion my dude
I could watch it for years desu. I love this show.
breaking bad is bad and bcs is even worse

normies spouting beautiful "cinematography" over film school 101 shot composition.
it's ironic that the people that mention the cinematography usually have no idea what actual good cinematography is and just like "pretty scenes."
>>81263282
I kinda stopped at the start of S2, has he become a "criminal lawyer" yet or is he still dealing with being a loser and with his autist brother?
>>81264028
oh look the pretentious faggot is back again ... i missed you!
how is mike still alive in better call saul?
>>81264051
people who use cinematography wrongly are the pretentious ones. look up the definition of each big boy word please.
>>81263282
The fact that it's nothing really like breaking bad and still holds people's attention despite not much ever happening is an argument in the show's favour
>>81264091
take your autism somewhere else
You claim it doesn't have good or beautiful cinematography and is basically film school 101 (lol)
Make your case and support your argument or go away
its fun watching the shills in these threads, they're so obvious
>>81264122
>claim it's bad with evidence when i claim it's good with no evidence.

fpbp
>>81263428
I actually agree wholeheartedly. It's comfy kino. I would personally grade the writing above Breaking bad too
>>81264051
To be fair, cinematography incorporates a lot more than shot composition - lighting, movement, blocking. BCS is nicely staged but rarely beautifully shot for the most part. It's functional.

are you the same freak that insist on 'cinematographer' not being the correct word?
>>81263282
comfy
>>81263282
I loved the first season, but something felt dull this go around. Saul and Mike were the best performances, but all of the other characters save for maybe Chuck sucked ass. Kim wasn't a bad actress but I find it really hard to give a shit about her character.
I mean, it's really sad when your most interesting parts are the subplot between Mike and the old Mexicans from Breaking Bad. I think some enforced diversity really screwed up the series since the fat chick and black actors (this is supposed to be in New Mexico mind you) didn't really do it for me.

A shot that again falls under film 101 teachings and a couple blog post by redditors isn't really evidence bro. kys.

If he could "just sell the drugs" then there wouldn't be a conflict. What would you rather the show be about?
>>81263282
It's a great show. Hype as fuck for season 3

ive avoided it for years cause i knew its just not my personal taste plot wise ... its called "Breaking Bad" for a reason ... i dont want it to be about anything to confirm to my preferences. Don't think it has to be for everyone.

Great thread. Must be a really good show!
>>81263282
Patrician show. 1000 times better than breaking bad, only absolute fucking plebs on /tv/ that love capeshit hate it
Saul's half of the show is entertaining. Mike's half is a standard boring prequel where there's no real tension because we know all but two characters will be fine.
>>81265068
Nothing happens in the show that's why there's nothing of substance to talk about. Instead people pretend there's substance in the "cinematography."
>>81265117
>people pretend there's substance in the "cinematography."
There is.
My concern is with the people that don't understand it. I mean, this is an imageboard for people interested in television and film.
>>81265080
I have to disagree with you on the Mike parts. His parts were pure kino.
>1 same fag ruins a thread with his autism cause he dislikes a show/movie
classic /tv/

Maybe you should go back to that wonderful site where you can sit in your echo chamber and no one has a differing opinion than your own.
