Film Thread.
I thought a trio of themed threads about other entertainment media might be good. If you're not interested, please just ignore the thread and pick some threads that interest you from here: http://celephais.net/board/view_all_threads.php

Anyway, discuss films...

Very good so far. Shaping up to be far more than just a Breaking Bad spinoff.


It is so, so much more than just a Breaking Bad prequel. Not as rich in the pure high-stakes, life-or-death action, but plenty richer in the subtext and the overall meaning of the story.

Jimmy McGill's arc is pretty depressing... until you take a clear look at everything and realise that he brought everything onto himself, ever the bitter loser. It's actually interesting how much his story follows that of Walt, only that Jimmy is more relatable (at least early on).

It's not without its weaker moments (I thought season 2 was treading water, and there's probably too much focus on Mike's storyline) but as it remains it continues to be some of the best television.
