Not much box office news this week, but apparently Joker 2 is a contender for biggest second weekend drop of all time so we'll just have to see 
It could also surpass The Marvels as the biggest sequel box office drop of all time.
Meanwhile ticket pre-sales for both Wicked and Gladiator 2 are apparently pretty good. This bothers me because those movies look fricking stupid 
Anyway, what is everyone in !kino watching this week?

I'm re-watching Breaking Bad.
I first watched it back in 2013 back when I was still in High School and this is my first re-watch. I remembered season 1 Walt as being sympathetic but now after re-finishing season 1 I think he's a prideful bitter c*nt right from the beginning.
Also, he's a Caltech chemist and he worked for Sandia Labs by the time he met Skyler, that's a research lab of the US Department of Energy but somehow he still managed to frick it all up to end up as a HS chemistry teacher. Then people will say that Breaking Bad wouldn't happen in Yuroop because "le healthcare" ignoring Walt is doing it not to pay for his treatment but to leave money to his family and that he could have gotten it all by takin Gretchen & Elliot's offer.
!writecel, the whole show is a huge moidmoment

Bb would happen in Europe, just Walt selling zyklon b instead of meth to paleshitian supporters because he wanted some disposable income

I watched it for the first time last year. Not to be too much of a feminist
, but I couldn't understand why everyone hated the wife character so much.
Like they expected her to ride and die with this? Idk man

Because she's contradicts what she says, lacks any moral standing because of how she willingly benefits from what Walt's doing, is extremely fickle and petty, and ends up betraying him yet somehow is portrayed as a good and innocent person.

I dunno. It seemed like she was only willing to benefit from what Walt was doing when she didn't comprehend how much danger he was putting them in. Hard 2 hatre her for being dumb, she never asked to be a narco wife

Walt is correct he is the danger, though, everyone who fricks with him dies. He even tries to warn Hank.

!kino, Walter White was one of the best characters that American television has cranked out in the past 20 years. Dare I say it? He is the best they've done.

There's nothing wrong with Walt.
It's the entire world that's wrong. 
So why can't a man cook some meth? 
And I liked getting mad at his somewhat right but mostly wrong and r-slurred wife.

I remember thinking Walter was kind of r-slurred the first time I watched, too.
I kept reading about how there'd be a point where he truly turns into the 'berg, but Walter doesn't really grow as a character, honestly. He's really arrogant but kept in check by his own nerdiness from the get-go.
But virtually all his problems basically just stem from his own decisions and weird sense of pride. Another thing is that it's never actually explained why a nobel prize winner would even have to settle for teaching high school considering his portfolio'd be pretty stacked either way. Breaking Bad wouldn't have happened if Walter just quit being a whiny b-word and actually enjoyed some of his own success instead of being an actual deadweight to his family.

He didn't win a Nobel, the team he worked with did however a theme on the show is how Walt constantly self-sabotages. Still, he left Grey Matter and his girlfriend because he felt intimidated and went from working on a good government lab to high school teaching, how? Probably because he acted like an insufferable b-word and got himself fired, a guy like him could have finished his PhD and be hired as a professor on a top university but my take is that he believed Grey Matter would fail without him, when the opposite happened he became bitter and resentful and therefore unable to held any job besides HS teaching which involves not interacting with any of his colleagues (Walt has no friends and his social interactions are limited to Hank and his drug partners).

The weird thing is that Hank doesn't seem to think he's insufferable and seems to actually enjoy spending time with him, which is weird since Walt pushed everyone else away.

My actual
physics PhD uncle really identified with Walt as a brilliant washout. 
That was the last "new" TV show he ever got into.

Walt is a washout only because he purposefully chose to become one due to his pride (no wonder it's a capital sin). He had great opportunities throughout his life and squandered them all.

Pride is indeed the greatest of all sins, I'm copy/pasting this comment again from Narca's wall since it applies:
I think my uncle probably fell into the same category, unfortunately. Messed up and his pride was too great to pick up and network into lower positions or an adjunct teaching gig.

At no point in your rambling, incoherent post were you even close to anything that could be considered a rational thought. Everyone on this site is now dumber for having read it. May God have mercy on your soul.
