Re: TV: Breaking Bad
He did do it for himself, that was what the first part of season 5 showed us. He could have stopped prior to saying he was in the empire business, but he kept at it. he could of worked for gus and just made enough money and got out. But he wanted it all and dealt with the consequences.Mecca wrote:Similarly for me, it was heart wrenching to hear Walt jr say "why don't you just... DIE already?"

Oliver Stone:
I understand what he's aying, but Oliver Stone lecturing the people about violence & authenticity in the movies...???There’s too much violence in our movies – and it’s all unreal to me. I don’t know if you saw the denouement [of Breaking Bad], I happen to not watch the series very much, but I happened to tune in and I saw the most ridiculous 15 minutes of a movie -- it would be laughed off the screen. Nobody could park his car right then and there and could have a machine gun that could go off perfectly and kill all of the bad guys! It would be a joke. It’s only in the movies that you find this kind of fantasy violence. And that’s infected the American culture; you young people believe all of this shit! Batman and Superman, you’ve lost your minds, and you don ‘t even know it! At least respect violence. I’m not saying don’t show violence, but show it with authenticity.

Re: TV: Breaking Bad
Plus this seems pretty contradictory coming within sentences of each other. It would be laughed off the screen if it were a movie but it's also the kind of violence you see in movies? Huh?Harry Lime wrote:Oliver Stone:
