Ballz posted:I loved it too and she should give herself more scenes doing this I loved how casually intimate that scene was, as an alternative to the many "do crimes, Kim snogs Saul" scenes. She might be in love with James McGill, but she has the hots for Slippin' Jimmy, and it's starting to bleed into their entire relationship. Ozark fell spectacularly at the final hurdle, but I still have faith in BCS.

Beefed Owl posted:Sorry if this has been noted or talked about previously, but something I noticed which is a pretty obvious theme is the use of color Blue is innocence, red is criminality, yellow is latent criminality. Jimmy’s first car was yellow with a replacement red door. Kim wears a lot of red, especially outside the Kettlemans’ when she makes the Jimmy leaning on the car pose. And her outfit for lunch with Cliff is white-red with black-red on the cuffs. She wears blue when she’s meeting with her clients, but a very subtle detail is she says “bring as many family members as possible”… for someone wearing all red. That client did it, but Kim is still providing them legal council.

Any other shots from previous episodes or season 6 trailers that we haven't seen in the show yet, that we can wildly speculate on and misinterpret? I'm not saying this against our discussions but of the fact that the editors REALLY love pulling that move. Edit: So I rewatched the season 6 trailer... https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Qz3u06eXf0E As far as I can tell, we've already seen every episode that each and every one of these clips come from. Outside of the boxing ring (which isn't even IN this trailer) and 6x05's episode trailer, everything from here on out is as-yet-unseen and/or even hinted at. Neat! Edit 2: here's the second one. Again, most of it has already happened. You know we're going to get a 'second half of the season' trailer eventually. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=F8OuX3WYCdA Rupert Buttermilk fucked around with this message at 17:20 on May 3, 2022 |

yeah everything in the 1st trailer we've seen now. From the 2nd trailer we still have yet to see the boxing ring, Francesca banging at the window, or Lalo in his suit. All three of those elements have appeared in our "on the next better call saul" previews as well, though Lalo and Howard's scenes I think appeared in the preview after episode 2, as a curveball.

I liked the light-hearted touch Rhea gave the episode presumably before poo poo starts to really go down. The scene with Hamlin talking about his dream and then we cut to Jimmy, it almost looks like we're gonna get to see his dream for a second.

Sure, okay, but I imagined they would be discreet about things if they thought Saul might become an informant. Court secretaries and even, presumably, low-level criminals (Saul's new clients) knowing what happened means there's no way it could remain a secret if Saul cooperates.

Bill called de Guzman a murderer, not a cartel guy or a Salamanca. The office gossip may well be that Saul is a cartel guy and no one wants to say it to his face, but most of his clients before were charged with vandalism or larceny or at worst robbery, and he mostly earned them lenient verdicts or plea deals and the occasional mistrial. Letting an obviously guilty murderer skip out on bail could just be a bridge too far. fuckin Spooge knowing him as "the Salamanca guy" is a far bigger stretch in my book

moist turtleneck posted:yeah that looks like that nerd that likes WW I have to disagree; I know it's somewhat out of focus, but that's very much not David Costabile. Zulily Zoetrope posted:Letting an obviously guilty murderer skip out on bail could just be a bridge too far. Further to this, it was Saul/Jimmy himself who delivered the $7mil, so that likely doesn't sit well with his co-lawyers. Or is that how that's normally done, with the lawyer taking care of the bail money? Obviously, they don't know that he was the one who trudged through the desert with it, as far as they know, someone gave him the money outside of the bail office.

Zulily Zoetrope posted:fuckin Spooge knowing him as "the Salamanca guy" is a far bigger stretch in my book I'm not so sure that it's that big of a stretch. As far as BCS/BB is concerned, there's pretty much 2 major players that are running meth in ABQ, one of them being the Salamanca's. There seems to only be a couple steps between the Salamanca's and the users, so it would make sense for the users to have heard their name, and the same rumors that are flying around the courthouse would also be flying around the druggies. That also leaves a pretty big and obvious hole that we are in the dark on. There's not really anyone in ABQ to run the Salamanca meth operation with Lalo & Nacho out of the picture. There's Krazy-8 I guess, but he's 1 of dozens of 2nd tier dealers they had running, would be one hell of a power struggle, and also unlikely that Gus would continue to supply them with meth.

There's a difference between word on the street knowing the names Salamanca and Heisenberg and knowing who their go-to lawyer is. I kind of figured the underground was at least a little more tight-lipped than that, given that the DEA apparently never caught the trail of the Chicken Man despite how many of Hector's dude had heard that name or even met the guy.

I have a question about directing credits, since we know that this episode was directed by Rhea Seehorn (which I was really pleased to see, too). How synonymous in the TV world actually is 'director' with 'director of photography'? In film, they're separate roles often performed by separate people. Is it different in TV in that they're one and the same? I.E: 'directed by (this actor)' actually means they're pulling DOP duty and all the shot framing and camera moves are their call, or is it more 'there's still a DOP, (this actor) is handling bigger-picture directorial decisions'? Great episode. Good to see Wendy doing her thing again, further establishing that she has a rep as trustworthy among scoundrels. I definitely also thought the bald guy was NoHo Hank.

The director is the set boss, who has ultimate authority over every department. They don’t aim the camera but they can replace the DP or tell them to make different shots. On a full length television show it’s very unlikely Rhea Seehorn was storyboarding and making shot lists, but she was responsible for making sure everything got shot. More likely is that she had preproduction meetings where they pitched things and she chose between options. The main reason they have an actor direct is because I have an inherent charisma that makes them easy to be around, and they know characters and can have insights from that direction. Not because they know how many focus pullers you need or what the post production workflow is for drone footage.

Thanks, this is pretty much what I thought. Rupert Buttermilk posted:I always thought DOP was the professional, actual term for "cameraman/woman"? Usually they are the one looking through the viewfinder, but if you're running more than one camera you'll have other Camera Operators working under them. And like Golden Bee said, often times it takes more than one person to run a camera - Focus Puller is an important position, for example, especially if you have dynamic shots where the camera moves.

When we first meet Saul and for a while after his hair is different than how it is through BCS so far, and I was thinking maybe that since Wendy comments on his hair maybe that's the moment where he starts thinking about changing his hairstyle which leads into what we see at first in BB. vv for a second I thought this too followed by "WAIT DOES HE HAVE ON A CHUCK MASK?" before we see him Lastdancer fucked around with this message at 22:32 on May 3, 2022 |
