  2.  @expecting747  The suit was dropped from what I understand. Sacha Baron Cohen not only dedicated the movie to her when he learned of her passing before releasing the film (she died after the film was finished shooting) but supposedly he actually had a production assistant or someone on the set basically go up to them and explain that he's playing an ignorant person on purpose and his real goal was actually to combat Holocaust denial, something that Sacha Baron Cohen fights with his comedies and satires every chance he gets. He didn't want her to misunderstand, though, so probably for the first and only time ever he actually let them in on the joke and that's probably part of the reason it's one of the most beautiful and touching parts of the movie.

  3. It was just yet another example of a man who was already pushed into a corner but only seems to find himself slinking further and further into it to a point where now he HAS to be the King. He has no other choice at that point. It was too late for any other outcome and to be completely honest whether Jesse did what he did or not I still think Gus eventually would've removed Walt. That point could be and still is debated to this day.

  4. Wow people were dicks to this guy in the comments section. "Oh I changed colors cause I changed my shirt!" Anyone who has seen Breaking Bad even just once knows that the cinematography is first rate. The use of colors and color filters on the camera lens were widely used to create more "mood", etc., with the use of color. So your observation on the color of something as simple even as his shirt, while maybe seeming trivial to the most casual of fans, from the production side of things it was most likely entirely on purpose. There was this one thing I saw a few years ago that analyzed the use of color in various scenes over the series' progression to chart various characters' "decay" throughout the duration of the show. Like Jesse, for instance. And Walt. How the colors they dress in change over time and reflect how the character's changed as well. For instance, Jesse wears more and more black as time goes on. Here's the link to that: https://vignette.wikia.nocookie.net/breakingbad/images/b/b4/Breakingbad-colors.jpg/revision/latest?cb=20130903001048 Or you can just simply go check the BrBa wiki and check out the entry on "Color". http://breakingbad.wikia.com/wiki/Colors The use of color is almost as intrinsic to the quality of the show as the use of time-lapses to indicate that time has progressed in certain other scenes, something BrBa quickly became famous for.

  5. Etc -- that's the dumb person's way of looking at it. Yeah, he was instantly panicked by the fact that Skyler had given Ted the money when they needed it the most. To pay the guy to change their identities so they could run away and start over and avoid Gus. She ended up giving it to Ted though because SHE was going to get in trouble because he had cooked the books without her knowledge but it had her signatures on them anyway. She didn't think it would be that big of a deal because she was just beginning to believe Walt when he said that his line of work was perfectly safe even considering how much money he was making. It all came crumbling down around him but it wasn't just that she had given basically all of their money to Ted -- it's that on top of that their lives were basically now over UNLESS of course he could figure out a way to kill Gus and his entire gang first. It wasn't an option anymore, it was either Walt or Gus at that point and Walt knew it. But if you think that the scene with him screaming and then laughing in the crawlspace after realizing the money was gone was strictly just because the money was gone then you're either really young or you're really dumb. Or both. Go watch the series again, and then again, until you start picking up the finer points of Walt's descension into the underworld and then later, madness. To think it was just because the money was gone -- poof! -- is such an elementary way of looking at the scene and frankly I think you misunderstood it considering that.

  6. The scene where he and his daughter go to the Debutante Ball is by far the most shocking part of it, and the part that felt the most true to the original Borat formula. I used to think we'd never get a Borat sequel because when he made the first one, you'd have to have been a follower of what WAS a cult TV show on HBO, Da Ali G Show. In that show, he played his three most popular characters, which were Bruno, Borat and Ali G -- all of which now have at least one movie of their own. None of his characters were as successful or as wide known as Borat was. Of course they addressed this in the second film, when he arrives in America he can't even go down the street without being hounded for $1 autographs and having people yell his various catchphrases to him, so he first goes to a costume shop where he gets in disguise, WHILE in disguise. The debutante ball actually felt like the room was filled with unsuspecting strangers, which is appropriate to the Borat formula. And they seem to be accepting of him, even though he and his daughter are clearly foreign, although some questions rub some of them the wrong way like "How much would you pay for my daughter?" and one guy seriously says "$500" and of course Borat high fives him, and the man's daughter rebukes him "That's fucking disgusting." Good for her. The real highlight of that scene is when they do the father daughter dance, which starts out really nice actually and the people start clapping, then Borat's daughter goes full on belly dancer, getting closer and closer to teasing what's under her dress, culminating when she lifts her skirt and we see that she's actually flaunting a horrifying blood stain near her genitals. Overall it's not as good as the first movie, but again we should feel lucky to have gotten another one at all considering I literally thought Borat and Sacha were TOO famous for it to ever work again.

  7. When Lorne Malvo single-handedly takes out that entire building filled with mobsters, that was easily one of the most badass scenes from anything I've ever seen. The way they shot it was clever, too. On the one hand it was probably cheaper to film, because you really don't see anything. Rather, you hear it instead, which is arguably even more effective because you can just imagine it all happening in any way you like.

  8. I guess the toenails scene was too graphic to include here when Charlotte's metaphorical drowning scene was not. Her character is so underdeveloped that I couldn't tell if that was a suicide attempt or if it wasn't happening at all and was meant to be metaphorical. I get it, swimming at night. Former swim team member.... nearly drowns at all. OK.

  9. Better Call Saul if you've not seen it, The Sopranos is great, Boardwalk Empire is also great, some people say The Wire is the best show of all time -- I think it's just good, not great -- some people also like Sons of Anarchy but I haven't seen very many of those so can't really offer an opinion on it. Or you can just watch Breaking Bad again. I've only seen it about, oh, 4 or 5 times by now lol... sadly.

  11. When I saw that scene for the first time I was like "Lester is truly gone now. Whoever he was is dead. This is the kind of thing I'd expect coming from Lorne, and in particular it kind of reminds me of Walt from Breaking Bad calling his neighbor under the pretense that he may have accidentally left his stove on because he expects to have hitmen waiting for him in there. Sure enough, he does. They don't kill her, though, they just quietly escape out the back door allowing him to go inside and get what he needs to get.

  12. Well that much is indubitably true. I guess it doesn't hurt that they're the ones, with their resources, who have literally written the book.

  14. There's theories as to why Buddy removed the bullets from Jonah's gun. Reason #1 -- he spotted Jonah hiding the gun, after giving him knowledge about how to properly use the gun, and is fearful after his parents report their growing suspicion of his... budding "serial killer-isms" or like school shooter tendencies, literally they mention that. So he wants to remove the ammo and prevent Jonah from hurting anyone and/or ruining his life in that way, if that was to be the case OR more likely IMO Reason #2 -- it's heavily implied he's a former gangster himself. "I used to work for unions" he said. "I killed Jimmy Hoffa." he says and after several moments Wendy laughs along with him. For all we know, he DID kill Jimmy Hoffa in the context of this story. In either case, he takes a liking to Jonah and from there I think he gathers/realizes that the Byrdes are up to something illegal just almost intuitively. That dangerous people might be after them. So he got HIMSELF ready in the event that it ever happened, that he'd be the one to pull the trigger like he has so many times before, not wanting Jonah to grow up with a life with the weight of having killed someone on his hands the way he did. Buddy was protecting Jonah from that. I really think #2 is the reason but they've intentionally surrounded his character in mystery but I am pretty sure he's a former mobster himself.

  16. I can't believe you even had to explain that. And just look at the fucking likes/dislikes bar. Like half of the viewers here can't understand the difference between dying out and not being relevant in the mainstream anymore. SMH people are fucking dumb as hell, I swear to God

  17. Just because you can see someone on YouTube with their independently recorded song and their independently recorded companion music video doesn't make them mainstream. Musicians and artists have more power at their fingertips and more choices career wise at their disposal now than ever before. The mainstream DOES still exist it's just operated and controlled by the powers that be. Well, more like the powers that USED to be, as recently as the mid 00's when radio stations and music channels dictated what a large portion of the country listened to. In other words, they controlled the mainstream. But ever since YouTube came along, it's basically revolutionized independent music for the better and put the power back in the hands of the artists where it should have been all along. But just because they may enjoy some modest YouTube popularity with a few million views and maybe a few hundred thousand subscribes, I mean, it's great they have that platform and all but that doesn't make them part of the mainstream. Not by definition. It's just made it more possible if not more likely for someone like yourself to be able to find it because some mega corporation didn't have to vet and approve it first.

  18. Exactly, this is exactly what I was about to say. Their idea of making it right is to give them another shot at being right? What the actual fuck

  19. I mean, not for nothing but if you get caught breaking and entering into someone's car AND steal an item worth $600 (or worse still, a litany of items that are valued at over $1000 or whatever) you're not just gonna be getting probation for that. Of course it all depends where you're from I guess, but I will say this that technically speaking if you get caught pirating movies or anything really, yeah, you're screwed. But I honestly think they put the numbers so high in those FBI warnings as more of a deterrent than a "we're actively seeking you out to impose these fines and penalties on you". The problem with piracy is so widespread that if they were able to catch everyone, we'd all be living in cardboard boxes or tallying up how many days if not years we have left on the inside of a cell block in some random federal penitentiary, anywhere in the country that has enough room to take you (as of right now, intellectual property piracy is a federal crime).

  20. scariest part to me was seeing the creepy smiling guy, not just during the wake scene before the funeral where he smiles at Charlie, something I did notice the first time, then seeing him again towards the end. He has a very particular look about him with the creepy smile, build and blonde hair, but then you see him at the very end in the corner, in the darkness, his teeth almost appearing blue, right before possessed Mom hops down out of the damn CORNER OF THE CEILING to chase him up into the attic, somehow getting inside even though he locks it (again, possessed) and then... yeah you know what happens next, what she does.

  21. He might be the best impressionist of all time. Certainly up there as one of the best of our generation.

  22. yeah well he didn't waste his shot like stupid ass Hamilton. what a jip. "Not gonna waste my shot" proceeds to waste his shot and die. Would've been so much cooler if Hamilton and Burr both shot and killed each other at the same time. IRL and in the musical.

  26. I recommend The Sopranos or Better Call Saul. BCS because it's a prequel to Breaking Bad. It's literally set in the same universe and is the closest thing to a sequel or spinoff you'll ever get with BrBa. But if what you are interested in is the exploits of a man and his career made in the underworld while also having the basically side-plot that he also has to love and deal with his family (including lying to them, etc) then The Sopranos in many ways is actually a better show than BrBa. BrBa is more of a "light" show. There's far fewer characters. The Sopranos has way more characters, way more episodes, way more violence (and also they aren't limited in their use of language, either, as it is on HBO -- something BrBa had to deal with even though it originally aired on cable). I just find myself encouraging anybody and everybody who hasn't seen it yet to see The Sopranos, cause I used to think BrBa was the greatest show ever made until I finally forced myself to watch The Sopranos again about a year or two ago.

  27. Batman & Robin absolutely deserves its spot on this list, but I don't think Batman Forever was nearly as bad as it has a reputation for being these days. Was it good? Not exactly. But it was entertaining enough, even considering how campy and colorful it was. It worked in that movie, it absolutely was taken to homosexual extremes in Batman & Robin. The lines weren't fun to laugh at like they were in BF; they were painful to listen to.

  29. Stannis isn't a troll or a bad guy, he was just an extraordinarily prideful man who felt he had been slighted his entire life by his older brother and wanted to win at all costs, so he began working in cahoots with the red witch lady to try to "cheat" his way to the top. He ends up doing things that are more and more and more depraved, by the time he finally makes that really spoilery decision about his daughter or whatever he was pretty much too far gone and his army was in a really desperate place. He sold his soul, in other words, but I do not think he's always been just an inherently evil man, but regardless he's going to whatever equivalent of Hell (if there is one) after all he's done at this point. He's the best example of a faustian character.

  30. Emo didn't even make it like 4 years, truth be told. 2004-2007, if that. And still I don't think it died soon enough.

  31. Real talk though, anyone who actually still a) listens to emo and b) looks that way is ... like, in 2004 when people still had MySpace accounts that was a very real trend in both music and lifestyle choices but anyone who is STILL doing that is either gay or bi. There's just no way to even justify it anymore, even though most kids call it "Scene" these days from what I understand, but it makes me wonder, what fucking scene is that? Again, it's not 2004 anymore, nobody is even close to being into that shit like they did back in the very, very short heyday it did have.

  33. No the fact is they don't rely on incest. They send people out to pull new people from the OUTSIDE aka OUTSIDERS to breed with. Christian being one of them. Dani probably being another. I am not saying they probably don't have some incestual relations but no that's the entire point they'll attract men primarily (and Pelle brought primarily men) to breed if they're selected for it and this happens every single year. And Pelle was just one of them, too, mind you. Beyond that, they only do the mass murder ritual every 90 years. It just so happened to be the year Dani went. The suicide ritual that happened first happens every year to elders that reach the age of 72. Someone like Rubin who is deliberately inbred is a rare occasion for them, they do that because they believe he'll be more intuitive and a prophet of sorts. It's not like they have noone else to reproduce with so they rely on each other, they rely on outsiders. That is the entire point of the reason they were brought there to be screened for breeding properties OR sacrificed OR both.

  39. More than anything else you can point to as far as what went wrong, above all else the writing was extremely bad. And in particular the pacing was awful. This can be directly blamed on D&D themselves. They should have just stepped away from the project as soon as they began noticing they were getting burnt out, but their egos wouldn't allow that. They started it, they demanded they be allowed to finish it. All while they were eager to leave Westeros and try their hand at Star Wars. The ending of Game of Thrones was so bad they ended up losing their deal with Star Wars/Disney on the heels of it. Behind the scenes, their careers are in shambles as a result of the blunder that was Thrones, but you'll never hear people in the industry actually say that. It backfired on them, it's safe to say.

  40. "HBO poured all of it's resources into one final season". Please. Don't blame HBO for this, HBO wanted to drain it's bank accounts and give us at least 10 seasons with the standard 10 episodes each, presumably, while GRRM believed it had 12-13 seasons in it. The decision was not on either of them. The decision falls on D&D, predominately, but you also have to consider that's at least two more years more like 4-5 (based on how long this took) of their lives. Maisie started at age 12, ended at 22, to put it in perspective. It almost makes you wonder to do an epic fantasy on the scale they did on which fans are spoiled now for longer than 8 seasons is even possible with live actors.

  41. Yeah man Freud was a huge cokehead. Beyond that are cigarettes a gateway drug? No, but I do think in this day and age especially less and less people of the non-sketch variety are smoking (I still smoke by the way, so not all of us lol) so like I think in a way if you associate with other smokers or people who use substances on an addictive level your chances of running into drugs of any kind must go up substantially.

  42. Yeah Star Wars Episode I Racer is easily one of the hardest games on the system. I am pretty sure I broke at least one controller trying to beat that game.

  43. Anderson Cooper also had sort of a personal stake in the game if you wanna call it that where that Orlando shooting occurred. That was a gay nightclub. Everyone knows that Anderson Cooper himself is gay. And it very much was an assault not just on human beings but especially human beings who are gay themselves. I don't think it makes it more or less of an assault on humanity in general but I am just saying that from his lens this was a terrorist attack on top of the fact that it was an assault against gay people of which he considers himself a community member of so to speak.

  45. I've seen Requiem for a Dream probably like ten or twenty times over my life. So not one of those movies I would only watch once then digest it the rest of my life, but I can see why other people might feel that way about it. I have some problems with that movie for starters the idea that NYC would EVER just be "out" of dope causing them to "starve" for it the way they did, it's false. A big city like that, someone always has it or knows how to get it. YOUR dealer may get killed, that's true. YOU may only know how to get in touch with like one or two other people to get it, but the idea that the city is just flat DRY? False. They have enough dope even if all the poppy plants were to be eradicated today to supply ALL of the world's current addicts for 20 years. BUT RFAD is not meant to be viewed that way anyway, it's not fiction or non-fiction, it's a fable. In other words, a cautionary tale.

  46. This is kind of one of those things that almost make you sort of regret the Internet era. I wouldn't trade it back for anything in the world, but before the Internet fun rumors spread like wildfire just cause nobody could look them up conveniently like they can now and put the myths to rest. People used to think Marilyn Manson had a few of his lower ribs removed so he could give himself blowjobs as well, that was another good MM rumor that spread during the non-smartphone era or whatever.

  47. The scene with Hank for me is the best. You know what I mean if you've seen it, if you don't, don't look it up. And get the fuck out of here if that's the case, too, please don't ruin this show for yourselves. But yeah the Hank scene to me was the best. Sad, powerful, tragic. Heartbreaking. It can and should be made into an opera or something.

  48. "A game so difficult you have to assemble a team of neighborhood kids to beat it" That's so accurate, that's something to me that I think might be missing from games nowadays. Now it's all about the online thing, it used to be "OK after school today you wanna come over my house and play PlayStation or we going over your house to play Nintendo?" At least that's the way it was for me and my friend group. Some of us had the Nintendo, some of us had the PS1. Only one of us had both. And we'd basically get to experience all the new games that way and yeah there were like specialists in the group, like some of us were great at boss fights, some were good at puzzles and platforming. Some were good at driving mechanics, etc. And it became a community thing more than it is now. I will say this to see games have online modes was a dream come true for me at the time but I do think it also robbed some of the socializing and magic that could only be experienced from playing games together, in the same room, on the same couch. And the only way to play together was with "split screen".

  49. The Columbine High School massacre would likely still be the worst of all time if their real plan succeeded. This video points that out, as well, but here's a bit more detail into that: Their original plan involved home-made propane tank bombs that they strategically placed throughout the cafeteria and were timed to go off at a certain time, the peak of lunch hour beginning around 10:30 am or so. There would be lots of people in the lunch hall by the time the bombs went off, but more importantly than that the cafeteria was right below the library. Their hope was that the blast would bring the ceiling down which had the people in the library in it, probably instantly killing hundreds who were in the cafeteria and the library above it, then they were going to wait outside in the parking lot, picking the survivors off as they scrambled out of the building. Realizing the bombs failed, though, then they stormed the building starting the shooting outside the school then working their way to the library upstairs after visiting the cafeteria first which fortunately was already empty by then. There is CC camera footage of them trying to set the bombs off anyway with their guns but the bombs didn't work. Thank God. After that they worked their way to the library, shooting whoever they saw on the way. The library is where the worst of it happened. All there is is audio recording of that, and it's absolutely horrifying. It was the beginning of a new era for America, where these shootings were slowly becoming more and more normal to the level we have them today. And yes it was horrible. But it could've been so, so much worse. We're talking hundreds of dead and wounded, which again would still be the worst ever even now that we have had so many more of them since then.

  51. Would I like to live my entire life in Medieval times? There was a time in my life (as a young child) where I couldn't get enough fantasy and medieval themed content to the extent that at some point I remember I wanted to actually live during those times more than anything else. I even said it to my Mom one day and she told me that "you're only seeing the good parts". And as someone who has more knowledge now, she was completely right. Living in medieval times would probably suck major, major balls. Just in general I think living back then would've probably sucked, especially for most people. Not only were there no treatments for many, many diseases, the actual quality of life for most people was pretty freaking bad. Even the ones who had it well would've probably looked longingly on the technology and comforts we DO enjoy today. Like the Internet and TV. The life of a soldier would've been grueling as well, I mean say whatever you want about violence on a show like Thrones and/or violence in modern shows that if they feature violence of any kind it's generally going to be within the context of firearms and guns, but ask yourself this, would you rather be shot or stabbed/cut? I would rather be shot. Personally. Something about combat that predominately features things like blades and/or hammers or maces, axes, things of that nature (and oftentimes weren't even sharp, were rusted and/or dull, see the comment about "quality of life" for MOST people again) just kind of disturbs me. Granted, I wouldn't want either to be the case preferably, don't get me wrong. But it's not like you had the right to even deny fighting back then, either. If you were like most people you were but a lowly soldier who belonged to a vassal or lord and if tehy called the banners, you'd better show up. If you deserted, they had very harsh penalties for doing such a thing. And basically little to no room for advancement because if you were lowborn, you will stay lowborn 99% of the time. It's not like the army of today where (unless of course there will be a draft when WW3 hits or whatever... God forbid) you have a choice in fighting or not. Back then you HAD to fight. And sometimes you'd be given the vanguard which made it even more likely that you'll at least get cut if not cut down altogether. From so many angles it would just be a miserable existence I think but hey, it does make for some great TV right? I would maybe like to live like a week or a month in medieval times but beyond that, nah. And it would have to be during a nice time of year, wherever I went. No AC and all.
