Better Call Saul 3x3 ''Sunk Costs'' Full Reaction

quite right! i hate wishing bad to anyone.. even if they hate me.. dunno is just me.. but this Chuck is asking for it. and is got a baaaad feeling for him

interesting. until i started this reaction channel and patreon.. i haven't dug much into movies.. i mean i enjoyed them as entertaining.. but quite few really made me think more about them.. for me was the gaming world.. and i can relate some games too with Breaking Bad and Better Call Saul. for me (even if i don't like to watch behind the scenes) i really see the true talent of a show, movie or game bcuz of Directors. books or reality, fiction or not.. the real entertaining is not the ''wow effect'' that everyone is so intrigued by (specially these days) but some real down-to-the-core feeling that haunts u for the rest of ur life.. that's what separates a masterpiece from a casual screen project.. and Breaking Bad and Jimmi's show is not far from that.. can't wait to see what is gonna happen until the end!

This episode has some of the best moments of the series. 1) Jimmy telling Chuck he's gonna die alone and the booking montage 2) Mike sabotaging Hector's supply route 3) The iconic shot at the end where Jimmy and Kim decide to fight Chuck's PPD. Chuck firing Ernie for doing what he set him up to do is an underrated dick move of his. I assume it’s him being vindictive about Ernie lying to help Jimmy, but it’s one of those things that just makes it obvious how hollow his supposed respect for the law is and how ruthless and selfish his paternalism is. Howard agreeing to it (he has to know or he wouldn’t have consented to paying for a PI in the first place) is one of the scummier things he’s done in the show.

Vince Gilligan, and his good friend Peter Gould who is the series showrunner doing the lion's share of the work in this series, have a narrative agenda -- get obsessively and addictively into story details to reveal common human vices and virtues. In a sense Breaking Bad and Better Call Saul both tell the same story twice -- a tragedy about rising from mediocrity to falling from grace. They seem to have studied from the schools of John Steinbeck and George Lucas alike; tell a story about common human struggles and dreams that end in sad capitulation to greed (John & Geroge), and tell it twice with thick visually spice (George)! There's a lot of John's stories of "The Pearl", "The Grapes Of Wrath", and George's "Star Wars" in Breaking Bad and Better Call Saul. These stories from John & George also get into repeating descriptions about common human struggles that end up dealing with, in some way, the cost of greed. I somewhat like how Vince and Peter tell their stories with a lot of character exposition and visual precision and grandeur like John and George respectively did. But one thing I have to say -- with all the compulsive focus on the details in the worlds Walt and Saul, Vince & Peter are catering and centering their stories for the audience to get fixated on idiosyncrasy only to stun them when they find they are simply being presented the tried and true parable of "the hero's journey", but with a twist -- "the FALLEN hero's journey". That said, it's worth seeing each Breaking Bad and Better Call Saul episode all the way up until each stories' final episode. After all the nit picking details and hidden parable are laid bear in Breaking Bad's and Better Call Saul's final moments, you will *not* be disappointed! Your story journey in all these Breaking Bad and Better Call Saul episodes will be its own reward! :-)
