Visual style in BCS (and Breaking Bad) is dictated by character(s). Mike is a quiet, slow paced, methodical, menacing guy. Scenes of him doing stuff on his own are going to be slow paced and methodical. They could have shot the scene of Mike figuring out the bug and using it to make a trap of his own in smash cuts like in Hot Fuzz or Evil Dead, but it wouldn't have felt like we were watching Mike any more. Most shows have a consistent visual style regardless of character or often even what is specifically happening in the plot. This makes a show feel familiar to an audience but the side effect is that it feels generic. BCS is better than that. Whether you actually ENJOY the visual styles presented is entirely up to you of course.

cowtown posted:Should have erased the tape with a giant magnet. Ein cooler Typ posted:he just took the tape of out the casing I don't believe that the tape itself matters at all and they went to great pains to explain that it was legally useless anyway(*). What would probably stick legally is two witnesses to Jimmy breaking and entering, committing assault, and most importantly attempting to destroy evidence. The episode was called "Witness". (*) Hamlin said it wouldn't hold up, Chuck agreed it wouldn't hold up, Kim said it wouldn't hold up, and Kim confirmed it wouldn't hold up with her old law prof.

FlamingLiberal posted:He did create his own illness to a degree, but it seems to occur when Jimmy 'wins' something or does well. Like after he became an attorney. Or when Chuck had the meltdown in the copy shop last season. It's textbook for psychosomatic symptoms to increase during stress and it's also not unusual for the person to spiral because of that: stress causes symptoms, symptoms cause stress -- now you're looping until intervention or an actual stress related symptom takes you out. Chuck's disease isn't real but the consequences could be, in a physical way.

CBJSprague24 posted:Michael McKean is akin to Kevin Spacey in House of Cards where his character is a scumbag you'd have to restrain yourself from punching if you met in real life because he plays the character so well that they seem so real and you'd have to remind yourself it's an actor. It's wild. Nah ... I'll never be able to seperate McKean from David St.Hubbins. As somebody else mentioned: the last BCS episode should have cut to black with Chuck staring at the EXIT sign and then THIS should have been the soundtrack music: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Rk9aThIovMA

Rupert Buttermilk posted:Anyway, Michael Mckeen deserves any and all accolades. The Emmy Nomination committee gave him merely a two word review: it just said "poo poo sandwich".
