Jesus, Che is petty. In one of the first emails referenced, he wrote without capitalization, then added a post-script: “my refusal to capitalize or correct the grammar of my language of this message is a deliberate informality and disrespect.” Sounds like a better educated Trump.

Yeah. I’m all for not body shaming. He looks fine. He looks like many of my friends who are his age. But, let’s be honest. If he was a lady with a typical body for a lady that age, they wouldn’t be calling it “slim.” AT BEST, it would be “brave” or “comfortable with herself.” More likely “let herself go” or worse,

Yeah, a woman would be called “brave” for being photographed (likely without permission, we should note) in a similar body.

The female version of that body would be shamed over and over.

Maybe she has an allowance that tops out at $18K per diem.

You are being ridiculous and melodramatic.

This is a long-winded piece wherein Juzwiak tries to squeeze something juicy out of an artist who’d like to talk about her music.

I didn’t sympathize with him. That is what all of my comments have said. I get that a lot of people loved the show, that’s fine! But I thought he was a shit bag and I couldn’t feel bad for him, so I couldn’t get into the show. You can explain his character however you want, but at the end of the day I didn’t like him

But... that’s the whole point of the show. He finally even admits “I did it for me.”

Lol “becomes less of a sympathetic character” is putting it gently. He becomes a monster with no redeemable aspects to his character at all. What I found interesting about Walt is how deep down the well people were willing to follow him, even when it’s clear he’s the bad guy. Skyler is just a woman who is pushed to

Hero might not be the right word, but I definitely felt like the show skewed the story to have people sympathize with Walter.

after season 1, that kind of becomes the overarching theme- that walt is actually a sociopath.

If you thought Walter White is portrayed as a hero in Breaking Bad, you and I must have been watching different shows

I can’t count how many times I’ve pointed out to people that Breaking Bad could have ended after Episode 2 if Walt actually gave a shit about his family. It’s amazing how many fans completely missed the “I did it for me” part.

I argued this at the time. Walter didn’t go suddenly bad, he was ALWAYS a rat bastard, he just got worse and way in over his head as a result.

In no way does Breaking Bad want you to see Walt as a hero. Pride and selfishness are behind every decision he makes practically and they have no problem making the audience aware of that. All the illness did was free his darker impulses under the guise of having nothing left to lose.

*Throws Good Will Hunting onto the bonfire.*

From what I’ve read, Vince Gilligan and the writers were shocked people thought Walter was a hero and demonized Skylar- we were supposed to hate him and support her! Sure Skylar waffled a bit on whether to enable him or reject him but damn, give a woman a break.

I never thought of Walter as a hero. Part of that was that he may have been initially motivated by the right things but he never acted with any sort of decisiveness or resolve. The other part was definitely that he was an asshole to his wife and son, the people who were supposedly benefiting from his actions. He’s the
