Idk why people complain about Jesse looking older. Everyone on BCS looks older. That’s just an unavoidable consequence of doing prequels. I figured we’d all be used to this by now.
It's not the fact he looks older, he sounds and acts older as well. All the other actors were able to capture their energy from bb, and Aaron did somewhat with the kim scene, but he seemed just really tired and old in the Rv scene Edit: I'm not hating on Aaron ofc he's a lot older now, I'm just stating why it takes people out of the immersion
“Unavoidable”? It literally was avoidable… there’s de-aging technology that people on UA-cam use to make people look younger, also don’t forget the use of makeup. So, as big as the studio’s budget was, what stopped them from finding a solution???
@@RobertoMakh I’ve yet to see de-aging that really looked convincing. One of the producers of BCS said that they didn’t have the time or budget to do that. Im glad they focused their attention on making sure the show was well written and well made then bothering with de- aging.
@@RobertoMakh de-aging looks terrible. lol I'd take the authenticity of natural facial expressions over the artificial feeling of digital de-aging any day. As for Jesse's scenes, I don't have any complaints with the Waterworks scene but his acting was pretty off in the Breaking Bad RV scene.
You have to consider that the episode of the saul goodman kidnapping was recorded in 2009, while Aaron Paul was 29 years old, while the continuation shown here was recorded in 2022, 13 years later. In the scene with Kim, Aaron Paul is playing a 20 year old Pinkman at age 42. Difficult to get, but you can't recast an important character like him.
So that would explain why Chuck could never get along with Jimmy in BCS. Since he suffered from electro magnetic hypersensitivity. Jimmy even said it himself that: "Lightning Bolts shoot from my fingertips" lol
I love how after murdering people, poisoning a child, letting Jane die, working with Nazis, allowing Jesse to get kidnapped by said Nazis, causing Hank to get killed, and completely ruining the lives of his family to the point where his son no longer wants anything to do with him, Walt’s biggest regret is still the fucking Grey Matter stuff.
I think the point of that was that both Walt and Saul were lying about what their true regrets were even when they had nothing to gain from doing so. deflection and self-manipulation had become ingrained to the point of being personality traits by the end of BB
Because Walter could've become a billionaire scientist star, not some washed up chemistry teacher married to one of the most obnoxious women ever existing and having a crippled son with her. So yeah, it makes absolute sense that he would regret selling the grey matter shares.
@@qqqq-dp4rv He might have still ended up with the disabled son, because genetics, but he could have afforded the very best treatment for him. He also could have still been married to Skyler, because personality and people like her exist everywhere, they just could have split a lot more easily. And Walt was a bitter A-hole before he met her, which he also wouldn't be, so...
Let's just be happy that all of the main casts are all here and healthy enough to continue the story for us. Them looking older is inevitable, but the fact that they're here, willing to do this, is amazing enough
They could’ve easily digitally de-aged them. There’s a video on UA-cam of someone doing exactly that. So if some random dude on UA-cam can do it, the producers could’ve done it as well
I think Walt generally regrets dragging Jesse into this mess in the first place. He pretty much ruined Jesse's life by blackmailing him into selling meth.
"So you were ALWAYS like this" everything he tried to do to get away from slippin' jimmy, and the work and effort he put in to pass the bar, everything he tried to do to be legit, and the last thing he hears from walt is exactly what chuck would have said. and his face shows it
The best part is 6:10 - Walter explains how he was tricked and manipulated to leave his own company, when in reality, it was his ego that made him sell his shares. When confronted with the truth, he immediately humiliates Jimmys proposal. A person such as Walt, would never accept not being credited for such important work if he did not honestly sell his rights.
@MKO it's not that Walt's ego made him sell, it's that his ego refuses to let Walt admit out loud that he sold his shares before Grey Matter made it big. So he lies to Saul to make him feel like he was at fault and the Gretchen and Elliot were at fault, when we know he isn't
@@ScottGammans Kim doesn't really "escape" all of it we are just not told her fate. For all we know Howard's wife probably went forward with that civil lawsuit.
I love the idea of Saul only speaking English before they drag him out. Getting no response he switches to Spanish which is the only scene we see in BB.
Walter took on so many of Tuco's mannerisms...mostly the random unhinged senseless and pointless anger all the time. You'd think he was tweaking on the blue meth himself.
he took on all of the personalities of the guys he had a hand in killing. Gus's heartless and cold way of executing. Tuco's unpredictable and impulsive nature. Mike's "just get it done no matter how" attitude combine all of that with his own overblown ego and intellect and you have season 5 Walter.
@@Adrian-gp7me yeah Walter was super smart and observant. He used his intellect for the wrong reasons though. Like hank said he could have done some world changing stuff but he chose to half ass his life and then it resulted in a midlife crisis which led to him manufacturing drugs. Wasted potential. But the truth is, Walter couldn't have done it, without Saul.
He was Walt's true introduction to the reality of the cartel, the criminal world, and how people act. Yes, he met Krazy-8 and Emilio first, but they were low level thugs, not Salamanca's and certainly nowhere near as powerful or as authoritative as Tuco. In part, he had to adapt to the environment he was in, so it would make sense for him to take the strongest aspect of the enemies he encounters and use them to his advantage
Best shows ever made. BCS is like the intellectual little brother that makes you think. Breaking Bad is like the intense drug addict older brother who constantly terrifies you
If you really think about it Walt pretty much destroyed everybody from the better call Saul, breaking bad universe.quite amazing for a chemistry teacher
BCS is amazing in that it is right up there with Breaking Bad as being one of the best dramas put out on TV. That's a rare thing, and of course the BrBa connection helped it along at first but it really grew into its own. These are the scenes I imagine most people were waiting to see, and they certainly delivered. Thanks for uploading!
I love that they gave the four main characters thyre own scenes together, like with Walt and Saul and Kim and Jesse, two important characters that got mixed up in nonsense by someone they loved/trusted and pretty much destroyed thyre lives (even though Walt hasn't put Jesse through any shit at that point) and the two main characters sharing a final scene together talking about regrets, bravo vince

Thomas Schnauz, one of the show's writers, explained that they refused to use CGI to dejuvenate the actors. Not only because of the low budget. But also to make the actors look more natural when acting. For them to show their real emotions.
To me, Jimmy never fully transitioned to BB's Saul, personality wise. Even in BCS' scenes with Walter, I see Jimmy talking, not Saul. Saul in BB was more comical, sleazy, always looking for his own profit. He didn't seem to have a care in the world but the moment you threatened him he would become a scared rat. Saul in BCS seems more innocent, has a softer voice, is more empathic. More Jimmy than Saul.
If you look at the BB scenes of Saul and Walt in Ed's basement, Jimmy had dropped the mask and was being himself, I don't believe this to be an inconsistency
@@fedeeeeeeI agree Jimmy was probably tryna be real with Waltuh for once which is why he even asked the Time Machine question but Walt instead went nerd emoji on him
That moment when one of the most vile and dispicable people you've even known is disappointed in your overall character and it does hurt, because he's actually kinda right.
It honestly looks a LOT more natural during his meeting with Kim. Probably a lot to do with how the scene is lit this time and how they dressed him. And I also think Aaron Paul got a little more used to playing young Jesse again from his previous cameo
The scene with Saul and Walt is genius. I could've watched a full movie length feature of just the two of them in that room. A movie about both them going on the run together somehow would've also been amazing. Walt is so demeaning and bitter towards Saul. Saul isn't angry about it. He feels pitty for Walt, he's almost trying to help him emotionally.... trying to figure out what makes Walt tick.
Just imagine for one moment how the audience in a movie theatre would react to seeing two of the most iconic television characters after 60 episodes of one of the best prequels ever made…
I have waited....SO LONG...to hear Saul tell Walt how he could've gotten back at Gray Matter. Like I was thinking "Criminal lawyer....sue them for your share of the company back?" like IDK why that never even occurred.
Because Walt sold his shares legitimately, it was all more of his classic ego BS. He had no legal recourse, he basically played himself and had nobody but himself to blame
They simply used a wider lense to film the set of the RV which made it look bigger. As to Todd: Yes, the actor gained a lot of weight, but I just recently rewatched El Camino but with the perspective of it being Jesse's flashbacks and us actually seeing his memory (doesn't explain the shots he wasn't there for, which contradicts this) and Todd being heavier simply because Jesse was so malnourished during his time in captivity that he remembered Todd to be much fatter than he actually was and adding to the horror Jesse must have gone through with Jack's crew
@@CaptainIglo fair take, but I like to think of it as actors shouldnt have to be judged if they put on weight (calling out the OP commenter, not your reply)
The way they chose to show Walt and Jess for the first time reminds me of one of those cheesy sitcoms where the person comes in and the fake studio audience cheers lol
Even the watch scene where walter looks at the watch which is obvious that he regrets what he did to jesse drove a fantastic element of breaking bad’s filmography. Outstanding!
I dont think its lost on the creators that walter white and chuck mcgil is very similar characters. Genius wrapped in their own egos to let others succeed. And jimmy spent his time in the shadow of one and supporting the other
Breaking Bad was crazy from the start to the finish and Better Call Saul slowly became crazy. But I kinda like Better Call Saul more because Mike , Saul , Gus and the Salamanca family got way more screen time and I liked that. Walt and Jesse got all the screen time of course the show was about them but it was nice too see some the side characters of Breaking Bad get more screen time. I liked Mike way more in Better Call Saul.
Jimmy's facial expression after Walt says "so you were always like this" is so brilliant. I imagine it's a mix of realising Walt is right and that he's always been a con man, but also remembering when he was trying to make an honest living and how far he'd fallen. Bob Odenkirk is so underrated.
Never remembered that Walt said that -“you were always like this”. Man the more I see Saul’s interactions with others is the more I see a true victim of one’s circumstances. He was always given the impression that he was ‘less than’ of others. Poor Jimmy, I feel so bad for him. Walt on the other hand, is one to talk. Someone who grew to disregard people. No one just “breaks bad” one day. I think if we saw Walt and his background we could potentially see that Walt, just like Saul, “was always like this”.
Idk understand why ppl can't emphasize with wants bitter mood. He has nothing to look forward to, he's dying, everyone he cared about is either gone or hates him. It only makes sense he would be a bitter dick
the scenes where walter and jimmy wait for the vacuum guy are so weird to me, they are fascinating in what they’re trying to do the 2 protagonists are at their turning point, they both have nowhere to go and nobody who loves them, they’re basically stuck in limbo they finally get to talk 1 on 1, and we get nothing more than walter acting like a jerk. They made their choices and now they’re stuck together, it’s something I’ve never seen in any other piece of media weirdly
It was interesting how these actors stepped back into their roles. Aaron Paul seemed too mature, wise, and introspective to be a pre-BB Jesse. Bryan Cranston was in full Walter White, chemistry teacher mode. We didn't see Heisenburg in any of these interactions.

A movie about both them going on the run together somehow would've also been amazing. Walt is so demeaning and bitter towards Saul. Saul isn't angry about it. He feels pitty for Walt, he's almost trying to help him emotionally.... trying to figure out what makes Walt tick.
The shaky cam makes me nostalgic to Breaking Bad
“We have to stop appearing, Jesse”.
Just imagine for one moment how the audience in a movie theatre would react to seeing two of the most iconic television characters after 60 episodes of one of the best prequels ever made…
I have waited....SO LONG...to hear Saul tell Walt how he could've gotten back at Gray Matter. Like I was thinking "Criminal lawyer....sue them for your share of the company back?" like IDK why that never even occurred.
Because Walt sold his shares legitimately, it was all more of his classic ego BS. He had no legal recourse, he basically played himself and had nobody but himself to blame
"So you was always like this "
Lol was? Is Walt southern now?
@@BOBINDUN XD
The RV was distractingly big just like Todd was distractingly fat in El Camino.
They simply used a wider lense to film the set of the RV which made it look bigger.
As to Todd: Yes, the actor gained a lot of weight, but I just recently rewatched El Camino but with the perspective of it being Jesse's flashbacks and us actually seeing his memory (doesn't explain the shots he wasn't there for, which contradicts this) and Todd being heavier simply because Jesse was so malnourished during his time in captivity that he remembered Todd to be much fatter than he actually was and adding to the horror Jesse must have gone through with Jack's crew
@@CaptainIglo fair take, but I like to think of it as actors shouldnt have to be judged if they put on weight (calling out the OP commenter, not your reply)
Dude it’s amazing he came back for his role, why you gotta insult him and call him „distractingly fat“ ?
@@nooneeey fat enough. But you couldn’t not notice it
The way they chose to show Walt and Jess for the first time reminds me of one of those cheesy sitcoms where the person comes in and the fake studio audience cheers lol
Jesse sounds like he just got done smoking 10 packs of cigarettes in the first scene.
not the kind of cameo we expected
All the horrific things Walt did and the only regret he has is leaving behind money...can't help but despise this guy
@@H.K.5 they aren’t meant to be loved
Even the watch scene where walter looks at the watch which is obvious that he regrets what he did to jesse drove a fantastic element of breaking bad’s filmography. Outstanding!
I dont think its lost on the creators that walter white and chuck mcgil is very similar characters. Genius wrapped in their own egos to let others succeed. And jimmy spent his time in the shadow of one and supporting the other
People seriously complained about the actors looking older because if so that's sad
Probably the best 2 shows in history. If not it's up there with shows like M.A.S.H. and The Sopranos.
Boardwalk empire. The wire the shield
@@janzesguerra499 I couldn't get interested in Boardwalk Empire or The Wire. I have never seen the shield.
Breaking Bad was crazy from the start to the finish and Better Call Saul slowly became crazy. But I kinda like Better Call Saul more because Mike , Saul , Gus and the Salamanca family got way more screen time and I liked that. Walt and Jesse got all the screen time of course the show was about them but it was nice too see some the side characters of Breaking Bad get more screen time. I liked Mike way more in Better Call Saul.
I still couldnt get into The Wire. Ill try again some day
Jimmy's facial expression after Walt says "so you were always like this" is so brilliant. I imagine it's a mix of realising Walt is right and that he's always been a con man, but also remembering when he was trying to make an honest living and how far he'd fallen. Bob Odenkirk is so underrated.
Never remembered that Walt said that -“you were always like this”.
Man the more I see Saul’s interactions with others is the more I see a true victim of one’s circumstances. He was always given the impression that he was ‘less than’ of others. Poor Jimmy, I feel so bad for him.
Walt on the other hand, is one to talk. Someone who grew to disregard people. No one just “breaks bad” one day. I think if we saw Walt and his background we could potentially see that Walt, just like Saul, “was always like this”.
5:12 Walt sounded like my Algebra teacher for a sec
alt universe series about walt and saul going after grey matter would be a hit
Where's the most replayed bar?
That scene in the end is that after Hanks death and before Walt goes to New Hampshire?
Yes
Idk understand why ppl can't emphasize with wants bitter mood. He has nothing to look forward to, he's dying, everyone he cared about is either gone or hates him. It only makes sense he would be a bitter dick
Crazy how walt didnt think saul couldve been a good lawyer seeing all the slimy shit hes done
I loved better call saul and really enjoyed these cameos!
Might just be me but aaron pauls voice or the way hes acting as jesse just seems so different.
His voice changed a little
they even shot the scenes shaky like in breaking bad lol
"I have a fish that could use this as a vacation home" 💀
the scenes where walter and jimmy wait for the vacuum guy are so weird to me, they are fascinating in what they’re trying to do
the 2 protagonists are at their turning point, they both have nowhere to go and nobody who loves them, they’re basically stuck in limbo
they finally get to talk 1 on 1, and we get nothing more than walter acting like a jerk. They made their choices and now they’re stuck together, it’s something I’ve never seen in any other piece of media weirdly
Walt saying the cold “so you’ve always been like this” mirrors Chuck immensely
It was interesting how these actors stepped back into their roles. Aaron Paul seemed too mature, wise, and introspective to be a pre-BB Jesse. Bryan Cranston was in full Walter White, chemistry teacher mode. We didn't see Heisenburg in any of these interactions.
Walter is basically another Chuck to Jimmy.
“People don’t change! You’re slippin Jimmy!”
“So you were always like this”
People: "Jesse looks older"
Aaron: "oh sorry, let me just de-age myself real quick no biggie"
"So you were always like this"
Jesus such an unneeded cruel putdown
5:12 The moment Walter White became a Whovian.
so you are always like this, slippin jimmiy
