Growth then Decay, THEN Transformation. There's some true to life themes.
I was just re-watching season 5 under a new perspective.
First Gus definitely encompassed a devil boss figure. He created millions and millions of dollars of blood money from cooking up the most evil drug. All the people who he brought along and touched that money eventually GOT HIT HARD
Walt has immediately fashioned himself to take over that devil boss figure.
Mike was in league with Gus the entire time, every scene there's symbolism that Walt is eventually going to take out Mike. Mike thinks Walt is softer than he is even when he says shyt like your "A time bomb, tick tick ticking"
If you notice in all movies where there is a seriously evil character they have NO LINES. Michael Coreleone killed his own brother.
Psuedo bad people have some lines, Jessie will never hurt any kid ever. Tony Montana flips the fukk out when he's asked to kill some kids
Walt is truly compelled brehs
In the wrong way.
All these characters that danced with the devil are going to get GOT too
also all Evil characters when they reach out to touch people.... people usually DO NOT like that. But when a good person goes to touch the evil person Walt enjoy's that. I am seeing this occurring in manyy many movies
The blood money was the underlying factor behind why so many of the characters start breaking bad
A long time atheist is here telling you to walk with Jesus brehs.
