Welcome to the Unpopular Opinion community!
How voting works:
Vote the opposite of the norm.
If you agree that the opinion is unpopular give it an arrow up. If it's something that's widely accepted, give it an arrow down.
Guidelines:
Tag your post, if possible (not required)
Rules:
1. NO POLITICS
Politics is everywhere. Let's make this about [general] and [lemmy] - specific topics, and keep politics out of it.
2. Be civil.
Disagreements happen, but that doesn’t provide the right to personally attack others. No racism/sexism/bigotry. Please also refrain from gatekeeping others' opinions.
3. No bots, spam or self-promotion.
Only approved bots, which follow the guidelines for bots set by the instance, are allowed.
4. Shitposts and memes are allowed but...
Only until they prove to be a problem. They can and will be removed at moderator discretion.
5. No trolling.
This shouldn't need an explanation. If your post or comment is made just to get a rise with no real value, it will be removed. You do this too often, you will get a vacation to touch grass, away from this community for 1 or more days. Repeat offenses will result in a perma-ban.
Instance-wide rules always apply. https://legal.lemmy.world/tos/
Well that's kinda the point.
Walt is the definition of someone who overvalues himself and his role in an operation.
Hell, in that specific scenario that he's referring to, Walt literally wasn't the one who knocked because he got intercepted before he even got off his front porch.
For the majority of the show, the directing and pacing leads the audience to, even if subconsciously, agree with Walt and his side of his experience, that he's just a family man doing what he can for those he loves, or, in rare scenes, to see it from someone more reasonable like skylar's point of view, that this is an insane psycho threatening the lives of his family and his friends to live some stupid fantasy, but in this scene, when he says this line, he seems like neither, he just seems like a guy who is kind of dense trying to sound cool. I can't remember a time that it seemed like that.
That's his arc, he goes from a scrappy underdog to a shitty human monster.
thats my point though, this scene is not consistent with any side of walt we have seen.
It shows his transformation.
I don’t fear criminals, I am the feared criminal.
I'm the video game boy! I'm the one who wins!!!
Some clarity over who Walt is might help.
Spoiler, he's da Heisenberg
Walt is White
I'm keeping this intentionally vague so if you have not seen the show, you dont get what I mean and I dont spoil it.
disney was a gangster
yeah but that's one of the most iconic thing happened in the series lol
