What was the point of this?
Boring plot, everyone has visibly aged to the point it's distracting, and it doesn't even feel canon with the BB/BCS universe

I wonder if this was tainted by being a Netflix original
It has that low effort Netflix original vibe to it

Fanboys wanted Jesse to have a happy ending, Vince wanted to do a favor to Aaron Paul.

I liked it, but it felt rather unnecessary.

I thought his happy ending was kinda implied in BB
And isn't Aaron Paul in other stuff already?
Plus they could have done this 5 years ago, before all the characters looked 1 million years old.
And how do you feel about the Walt scene? Maybe it's just because it's been a while since I watched BB, but it seemed kinda unnatural

Pure fan service. I liked the movie, but pretending it's anything but that is delusionial.

They probably could have done it as a 1 hour AMC special and left out the parts with Fat Damon

Fat Todd was the most canon destroying thing in BB history

I can't even believe he got that fat. Did he spend all of his BB money on McDonald's?
I drink 4 nights a week and don't diet at all, and even I'm not inflated looking like him

EL COOMINO XD

JUST

>I drink 4 nights a week and don't diet at all, and even I'm not inflated looking like him
You're 22.

El Camino was pretty much a breaking bad arc crammed into a feature length movie with Jesse taking Walt's role.

>Plus they could have done this 5 years ago, before all the characters looked 1 million years old.
Vince was busy establishing Better Call Saul which is a hundred times better than any Jesse oriented plotline.

Todd was meant to be a reflection of Jesse--his sociopath counterpart. Todd being that fat and behaving like a 10 year older dude was distracting.

I think I know. If you read the script to the finale of BB, its written that Jesse drives away "calm" and determined with a faint smile that everything is going to be ok. At some point in production they obviously decided that doesnt really fit given the scenario and changed it to what it is now, but I think Vince was upset that he didnt get his "calm, happy, determined" Jesse arc and literally made an entire movie to get to that point, since El Camino ends in the exact way the finale of BB is described in the script.

Of course, but it's not like much effort went into writing this

I enjoyed it as a kind of comfy fanfiction

I thought he was gonna rape him
And I know Todd had plot armor, but Jesse not shooting him when he had the chance made no sense

BCS is boring, Jesse's story was more interesting in BB.

wdym fan fiction? jesse was implied to have lived and had a happy ending

based xddd

If he shot him the gang would have killed Brock

Jesse was the worst main character on BB

The gang wouldn't have found out anything was wrong for hours.
That would have been enough time for Jesse to alert the authorities

He got fat for Fargo's second season, he played a butcher there so it made sense for him to be chubby

Butchers are known for being chubby?

Why the fuck decided Vince to give him so much screentime?

It was so emersion breaking it was almost like watching a comedy

Agreed. If they had to use him at all, just make it a quick flashback.
His behavior was also odd

you mean todd

I forgot this existed the moment I finished watching it

Honestly I thought it ruined Jesse’s character. A guy that’s supposed to be a softy suddenly shoots two randos for money then torches their place?

yeah he was suddenly an expert marksman. but i mean being a torture victim may have changed

The Walt scene added little to the overall film (plus Walt looked really weird there, I actually watched El Camino right after Felina). The amount of flashbacks in El Camino made it feel like fanservice, even if I liked how Jesse acted mature and competent in the film

Yes

What is more unbelievable is that the guy would risk getting shot with any bullet than just handing him over 1800 dollars

It still felt really out of place, like they were just including an action segment for the sake of it despite it not fitting Jesse’s character.

>Walt looked really weird
Old or just awkward?
Well, he agreed to Kill Gale who was completely innocent
So killing Nazi trash would not be a big deal to him

Yeah watching some of these actors age kind of ruins the suspension of disbelief.
Seeing Mike in the most recent episode is weird especially when you know these events take place before Breaking Bad so he's suppose to look younger.
I really love the show but they need to put a side a budget to youthenize Jonathon Banks

He killed Gale to save himself and Mr. White, and cried while doing it (also Gale was far from innocent). He killed these car repairmen or whatever for 2,000 bucks, it just felt dumb.

>youthenize
lmao

>I thought his happy ending was kinda implied in BB
I thought it was inevitable that he'd get caught immediately by police
El Camino was good. Walt apologists can't actually voice a proper complaint and are probably the same fags complaining about BCS while still watching it

Ok Retard.

he was on coke

>I thought it was inevitable that he'd get caught immediately by police
That doesn’t mean he’d be arrested. He cooperated with the DEA previously (Marie could attest to that) and was held hostage for almost a year (evidence all over compound).

I think people forgot Mike gave Jesse training, hell that's even why there's a flashback with the two of them. The action scene is there to show the influence of Mike on Jesse. I actually like the movie. Felt like a nice epilogue in a good book after finishing the main story.

Robert Forster was the only memorable part of this pointless waste of time.

It's all that milk he's been sucking from Dunst's orangutang titties.

Not sure if aging or just fattening

Hank was doing that without the DEA's involvement, though. Obviously Jesse couldn't be tried for anything he did while in captivity, but it wouldn't be hard for them to connect him to all the shit he did earlier in the series

same

painfully average

I believe Gale and Todd were the only two people he killed in the show across all seasons - maybe I'm forgetting one other character but he never became a cold blooded killer like Walt - so suddenly killing two people over petty amounts of money was silly and unnecessary

they should have killed jesse in the first episode like they planned to

>YO brock bitch, sorry but I got your mother killed

not sure if his hairline is receding or Walt made him big brained

the jesse/walt dynamic is what made bb what it was. there's no story without him

he was already 50% bald in breaking bad

>what was the point
aaron paul commissioned it to give himself some more work as a career hail mary.
stop any more question and answer about why do this when it seems unncessary etc. I just explained exactly why

but am I crazy or did his head enlarge a lot?

Filtered by bcs, how pathetic

This. There was no reason besides plot armor to not shoot that fat fuck.

He shot a dude after gus poisoned the cartel leaders

>"oh okay they're gonna give him sweeping shots and keep him hidden to mask the fat"
>*multiple extended closeups*
alright

I liked it. It was completely unnecessary, but it didn’t ruin anything about the show and was both fun and interesting.
