This is based on a game that came out in 2013. Kung Fury is almost half a decade old at this point. I have no idea who the actual audience for faux 80s neon and laser grids epic bacon poo poo is going to be in 2020 when an actually good show like Moonbeam City that used that aesthetic couldn't find an audience in 2015 when it was still relatively fresh and new.

synthwave is good, actually, and Moonbeam City bombed because the advertising for it made it look like complete poo poo despite being an OK show

I did like their little twist on that: Red John begging for his life and trying to get Jane to care about how he knew about his suspect list and some other inconsequential plot point. But Jane didn't care and just straight up choked him to death. It was very refreshing to see a protagonist actually commit to achieving their goal and not get distracted by dumb poo poo.

That was so obviously because they hadn't actually bothered to come up with answers to these questions they had teased for years that it's hard to give them credit for it.

He was definitely there.

Who else is loving stoked for that Breaking Bad Netflix movie dropping in a few hours besides me?

Breaking Bad is, no joke, one of my favorite shows ever, so more of it in the form of this feels like a gift.

What is this.....Breaking Bad? Is it a show?

So far it’s good but clearly very unnecessary. Still plenty to go though. Can’t complain about more Jesse Plemons in any context, either way.

El Camino was great. I'm still not sure it was necessary but it's extremely well done and nearly all the inevitable cameos and flashbacks felt organic. It's probably the best case scenario for a Breaking Bad movie.

The Skinny Pete scenes were unexpectedly touching and I’m glad they got one last Jane scene in.

Between this and Righteous Gemstones, Jimmy from The Mick cannot catch a loving break this year :eyepop:

No one should ever claim that El Camino was a story that needed to be told, but I’m glad it was told. If nothing else, it’s just a really good extended epilogue for Jesse Pinkman and I wasn’t looking for anything more.

I was satisfied with how Breaking Bad ended, but El Camino gave a little more closure and that was nice.

I’d like to think he really enjoyed being fat for his Fargo role and that’s just who he is now.

My Breaking Bad head-canon now is that Todd gained and then lost 60lbs in the time gap between Ozymandias and Felina because he kept eating bean and bacon soup every day.

Finally finished Too Old To Die Young late last night. After so many excruciating 80-90 minute episodes, the 10th and final episode was only 30 minutes and didn't really wrap anything up. Man, what a shitshow, no pun intended. I still barely believe this was a real show someone greenlit. Seriously, did nobody else watch it? (I'm not recommending it, just curious.)
