Breaking Bad 5x16 FINALE Reaction Early Access!

My guy are you ok? This is your fourth comment

Rob: "I don't love Jesse". Everyone else: "We don't care about you, Rob, try finding an argument once in a while". We couldn't have a clip about Jesse driving away but get three with this ape laughing?

Johan Liebert

Please, as if you can make Rob stop being a fanboy and the other guys stop being yes sayers all the time.

Johan Liebert

It's almost sad how stupid Rick is. "In Game of Thrones bad things only happen because of dumbass decisions". Almost every mistake happens in Breaking Bad because of Walt's pride. Him refusing tue loney Form Grey Matter, him antagonizing Gus, him trusting the Neo-Nazis, etc. Rick, you just need to accept that you're a GoT hater and a Walter fanboy. Blind Wave team, you don't need to *always* agree with someone. Sometimes what they're saying is garbage and you shouldn't always force yourself to agree with it.

Johan Liebert

Man, it must be though for Rob. Being a sociopath and the only one laughing 90% of the time and then seeing that no one else does. Also, Jane was the woman who wanted Jesse to gain the money he deserves, while Walter only cared about using Jesse 90% of the time. Sociopaths being sociopaths and Walter fanboys being Walter fanboys...

Johan Liebert

im just going to ask again even though i know i wont get any answer... Do you guys really don´t have any other option other than vmeo? I think I´m just going to end my pledge cause i seriously cant find ANY enjoyment on trying to watch a 10 minutes video for 45 minutos because it just doesn´t buffer.

Jjj.

Felina is a character in the Marty Robbins song El Paso, the song that plays when Walt starts the stolen car, and which Walt later sings to himself when he's building his gun machine in the desert. The song is sung from the perspective of a man who falls in love with Felina, a dancer at a bar. When the singer finds a man flirting with Felina, he shoots and kills the man. The singer then flees El Paso, evading the law for an undetermined amount of time. But, unable to get Felina out of his mind, he ultimately returns. The singer is cornered by the police and shot, dying in Felina's arms. There's a clear parallel to Walt's situation there. Walt's Felina is his meth empire, and Walt dies in a meth lab just as the main character in El Paso dies in Felina's arms. Someone made a really cool video set to this song, which shows how the show parallels the song. And it incorporates the song's appearance in the show in a really cool way. I'm not usually the kind of person who watches fan edits, but this is really good. I watch it every time I finish Breaking Bad. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=V106RGMPcHQ (Hopefully links are allowed here.) EDIT: I had meant to post this as a top level comment, but it works as a reply to your comment too, so I'm leaving it here :)

Fe Li Na: Blood, meth, tears.

This is why so many people have watched this entire series multiple times. It has a perfect end, there are so many details that you see upon a rewatch, and we love the characters. You forgot to mention Mike! He wasn’t even supposed to be in the show. It was a split second decision to have him as “the cleaner” after Jane died, and they loved him so much they wrote an entire character for him. Thank you for a great ride. It’s been awesome watching all your different reactions and theories. Cheers!

Walt’s downfall wasn’t because of his love for his family and Jesse it was his ego that took him down. He could have kept cooking for Gus but he couldn’t stand not being in charge or getting full credit for his work. It was grey matter all over again.

Eric Larkins

Hey guys. I’ve loved your brba reactions. As for the meaning of the title: the title is based off of the character Feleena from an old western song called El Paso, by Marty Robbins. The character Feleena has an arc similar to Walter that I unfortunately can’t put into a few words without butchering it. You’re right though about the letters representing elements on the periodic table... kind of. A popular fan theory is that FE, LI and NA represent Iron, Lithium and Sodium, which the theory states are key ingredients in Blood, Meth and Tears respectively. As poetic as that is, Lithium is rarely an ingredient in meth, so it doesn’t really make all that much sense. Undoubtedly though, Felina is an anagram of Finale, so I reckon that’s at least one answer to why it’s called Felina. I’m really glad you all picked up on the mirroring between the final shot, and the final shot in Crawl Space. That is undeniably deliberate, and a theory that I can actually get behind. Where the deeper meaning is that the first scene shows where Walter White dies, whereas the second scene shows where Heisenberg dies. Gilligan uses mirroring a lot. If you go back and watch the scenes where Walter enters his own home on his birthday, they all have the same shot of him entering his doorframe, but all shot differently to show a man gradually deteriorating in the eyes of everyone else around him. I love this show, and I’m glad you’ve all enjoyed it too.

Walt made many terrible decisions...

Phoebe

Fingers crossed for Better Call Saul for the poll

The Doctor

AlanBYW

When is El Camino reaction coming?

Slim Shady

Little fun fact: "El Camino" is spanish for "The Path/Walkway"

Edwin Gonzalez

They are reacting to it, with the full crew

TbcAlex

And so another reaction channel finishes a top 5 greatest TV show of all time. I signed up for Cowboy Bebop and this show. I am eagerly awaiting Berserk, The Wire, or YYH. I might be waiting a long time. lol

Ruben Lopez

I’m sure you plan to but please react to El Camino💜💜

Cameron

that was a hell of a lot of fun, guys. whether or not BCS wins i hope you react to it at some point. you wont be disappointed.

Carlos Hurtado

Fe is iron which is in blood. Li is lithium which is found in meth. Na is sodium which is in tears. So it’s blood, meth, tears. That’s according to Vince Gilligan at least

Great work Alan, loved that opening.

Gary B

Thanks guys! It was a hell of a ride.

Josée Benoit

I imagine Shane and Eric have already seen it, as they did a trailer reaction

Jack Mapstone

End times. What a fucking journey boys. Loved rewatching this series with you guys (even tho its like my 5th viewing!) Hopefully there will be a group reaction to El Camino soon?!?!

Joel Foster

You can also rearrange Felina to Finale but I suspect it has multiple meanings
