A new chapter is knocking, and it all starts with my favorite show of all time.
Breaking Bad follows Walter White, a high school chemistry teacher who turns to a life of crime after he is diagnosed with lung cancer. Joining him in his meth-making endeavors is former student Jesse Pinkman. Together, the pair run afoul of New Mexico’s most dangerous gangsters, including the murderous Salamanca cartel family and the criminal mastermind Gustavo Fring.

There is no moment where Walt becomes Heisenberg. He was always Heisenberg. Like Vince said, all that happened was that who he truly was showed itself more and more.

@wamyam 4 месяца назад

i disagree there's obviously a sequence of events that causes incremental change. his behavioral readiness to react to those events were present beforehand but he also had the readiness to become other versions of himself totally different from heisenberg if other sequences of events occurred. and even if you argue that the world is deterministic and it was fate that those attributes would be triggered that still implies that walt's transformation would not be spontaneous without those triggers which makes it a process of becoming by definition.

@hanakikoi 4 месяца назад

@wamyam I personally agree with the reading of Walt that's in line with C S Lewis' Mere Christianity. I'm paraphrasing, but he likens man to rats in a dark room. If you want to see the most rats, the best way is to rush in, to surprise them. You could sneak into the room quietly, not turn on the light, but surprising them didn't swawn them. When man is caught off guard, they act most like their true self, and we see that with Walt. The cancer caught him off guard, remission caught him off guard, the situation leading up to Brock's poisoning caught him off guard. Walt as a man was held back only by his circumstance, and being caught off guard showed him that. This isn't to say that Walt is completely evil. Just the divide he made was always superficial. Walt is the same man at the beginning of the show that he is at the end in my opinion. And every morally repprensible thing he did desensitized himself to his own true self. I say this because even though I am demonstrably a good person, I know I would be corrupted by own human urges. And that's what happened to Walt. As he put here, Heisenburg was Walt's pride. And Walt was always a deeply prideful man.

@trashteamracing8262 Месяц назад

When Gretchen expects an explanation for the lie, we truly see Heisenberg for the first time. He could have just accepted the money and gotten his job back at Grey Matter and he would have been fine. His pride wouldn't allow that, and he lashed out.

@@kheops8498 I'm just being general, it's how people talk, oh sorry, MOST people talk, not all. I'm using the argument that desperate people will do desperate things, crowds crushing people to death to escape certain danger, someone going on a drastic last ditch effort under the affect of an end-of-life crisis to ensure the stability of their family, not this kind of event mind you with the drug manufacturing overlord with an ego complex, but many other examples of this sort of thing have happened IRL with people under similar pressures, it's the nature of us as animals. Most people simply still won't assume it though because they have a moral compass that urges them to do what they deem ''right'', and most people must deem similar things ''right'' in order for society to exist.

thank you so much for the section about Skylar. she is absolutely a realistic supporting character, and it's very telling when people complain that she sucks and is annoying, etc. I will forever point out that even when Skylar was making bad decisions, her decisions mirrored Walt's, if anything. I don't blame her for panicking, for trying to protect her kids, or even leaning into the lifestyle by investing in the carwash. This is a woman who gets backed into countless corners and is just trying to survive being around her husband.

@They.Hate.Kris10 2 месяца назад

@WallyLaLa Месяц назад

Skylar led walt to spiral back into his meth business. He wanted to change, he wanted to stop, he had enough money to support his family when he was gone. He wanted to finally be honest. She just wanted to fuck her boss, even before finding out everything. Then after he made an effort to bond with his family again, after telling her the truth, she slept with him and told him she slept with her boss. That was when he realized the only time hes ever been truly appreciated for efforts was when he was making meth. That was when he stopped doing it for his family. I will forever hate skylar. But i do pity her in the last season. But she isnt innocent in the slightest. Im sure if she hadnt done it, if she saw his point of view, if she had supported him, not with his business, but with his situation, respected his decision on why he did it, and not go and decide to sleep with her boss, it wouldve been a different story.

@zacyquack Месяц назад

Yeah I do blame her for what she does after actively helping Walt. She was never required to do that, just keep quiet about it and don’t tell the police, and nothing would be taken away. Then after that her helping Walt makes her act poorly towards other people, as if she didn’t decide to do it.

@TheRealPrecaseptica 5 месяцев назад

Great essay. I'd just like to give an alternative explanation of when Walter White becomes Heisenberg. Could it be that the question should be flipped on its head? ie: When did Heisenberg become Walter White? Because the Walter we see celebrating his 50th birthday with turkey bacon and the saddest handjob I've ever seen is quite far from the Heisenberg that is the one who knocks we are led to the, i suspect intended, misinterpretation that Walter precedes Heisenberg. I think, however, that the Walter we see in flashbacks, confidently teaching Gretchen in an inspired way or boastfully home shopping with the pregnant Skylar, isn't actually the Walter we meet in the pilot episode. That is Heisenberg. Pre-crime Heisenberg, but the actual personality that used to reside in the shell of a person we meet first on his depressing 50th birthday. Breaking Bad is about Walter becoming what he always was. It is Walter choosing to fall in love with his fated end. This was always within him. Ever since he saw the shell of his father he knew, that he was predisposed to take radical measures to escape that fate. And yet he was well en route to becoming exactly that when he was awaked by a mustard stain with a side-order of a cancer diagnosis. Breaking bad, or, if you will, breaking out. Escaping the mundane slow suicide the dethroned and scorned Heisenberg was taught by civility to endure. Nietzsche would, I think, agree that Walter always had the capacity for Heisenberg within him, and I'm just taking it one step further by suggesting that perhaps there never was a Walter as we thought we knew him from the beginning of the show. We meet a man dying slowly, who comes to realise he may be dying a lot faster than he wasn't considering, and in that realisation it dawns on him that he is exactly the type of person who has always wanted, since he was a child, to design the stage more deliberately before curtain call. And, indeed, the show closes with Walter getting the only death that would fit the son of his father.

@FupaDoncic 4 месяца назад

There’s a fear and anxiety about things when we’re alive that we often just settle for the easiest path that also protects our egos. With him seeing death coming, he had nothing to hold back. It’s kind of like a xanny head, lying, stealing , cheating, getting over on people, and extremely moody. Fearing no repercussions do it the anti anxiety effects.

Some of the visual similarities from shot to shot that you managed to find are just si beautyfull!

Walter probably has one of the greatest character arcs I've ever seen. Mainly because it isn't an arc, but self discovery. It reminds me of the original Jekyll and Hyde, where Hyde wasn't an alternate personality, but Jekyll's deepest darkest desires made human. Heisenberg was Walter's Hyde, and like Jekyll, he used Chemistry to unleash it.

I always thought “the moment” as being the scene on Crawl Space (S4 E11) where he goes nuts because Skyler “gave it to Ted” and the plongée plan used is the same as in Heisenberg’s death after getting mistakenly shot by his own automatic .50. So, “the moment” for me it’s not exactly when he becomes Heisenberg but when “Walter White dies”, every piece of good in him is dead on that exact moment for me.

Walt started becoming heisenberg the day he was born. He was already an egomaniac frame 1, harboring resentment towards his former colleagues and boss. He doesn't just do things for the family, but their praise. He latched onto that appreciation once he got into business. He liked feeling powerful and in control.

@Connor-fj5rc Месяц назад

Walter White may not be the most psychologically complex character on television, characters like Tony Soprano or Jimmy McGill have a little more nuance; but Walt is still the best character on television because you don’t just understand his turn to the dark side in on an intellectual level, you can feel it. Breaking Bad is often criticized for being a power fantasy, but that’s precisely the point. Walt is living out his power fantasy in the form of Heisenberg and even when he is doing the most reprehensible things there is a tiny part of us that is still rooting for him. There is a tiny part of us that feels the same gratification Walt feels when he embraces the Heisenberg persona. That’s because there is a tiny Heisenberg inside all of us and the whole point of the show is to warn us that if we let it out, though it may feel good, we could lose everything that truly matters to us.

I always thought it was a mistake for people to think Walt changed into Heisenberg. If you look at the beginning and the flashbacks to the past, there really isn't any evidence that he was ever some great guy with a winning personality. It is even revealed that his initial hooking up with Skyler was a sort of manipulation more than an organic love affair. Of course it was. He is a mad genius. Every relationship he has is a manipulation. People with extremely high IQs can't relate to regular people. They are either alone or users.

Really slowed down the way I thought about this show. I’m waiting to start Saul back up again but I know I need to rewatch this whole series and really be present and learn things I haven’t compared to last time. And yeah, Jesse and Walt’s relationship I’m glad you saved for the end. It’s incredibly complicated under the surface level. It’s like a snake, that you trust, because maybe there’s some hope or respect you can earn from Walt mutually by all those years of work and working through problems in general, and Jesse, naturally under all that bs wanting to do good, he tries to still be there, but it destroys him. It’s the most tragic shit I’ve ever seen because unlike a movie, this whole series was gradual, 5 SEASONS of humor, minor conflicts, the good times and the slightly shitty times, the times they’d get in trouble together, the times they’d fight and want to get rid of each other, but still with love. All over years of consistency of this feeling real, 5 seasons we spent seeing them turn into this, it couldn’t have been any better. I’ll always look up to this show.
