Jesse was annoying as **** by the end. Todd is now a fat **** as well which ruined the "Flashback"

It was alright, nothing special though and the gay little quick draw thing was pointless.

Didn't answer the 2 main questions I had after the series ended as well, guess the actors got too old or something so couldn't put them in El Camino

Ad Astra is comfortably the worst film I have ever seen. There are plot absurdities throughout with several twists inserted with no relevance to the final outcome.
The acting is terrible.

Bit harsh PS. I didn’t think it isn’t that good myself, the people I went with loved it.

Best film I’ve seen recently is Holiday, Isabella Eklof.

I liked Joker, and Once Upon is fun.

Irishman good too

There are three physically impossible events in the plot. Stopping on the way to Mars, getting back to his spacecraft from his father's ship and riding a shockwave back to earth.
There are also four completely pointless events...the fall from the absurd tower, the journey across the neutral zone on the moon, the fight with the gorillas (!) and the swim through the underground lake on Mars. All of these are totally unbelievable and are unimportant to anything else in the plot. We are also expected to believe that a man going on a mission that is crucial to the planet's survival would start by taking a commercial flight to the moon which terminates in a place where the only option is to cross a zone full of pirates in a moon buggy. The only possible reason for that is to get some cash into the film from Virgin.

I wonder if they are doing other spin off conclusions, like what's happened with skylar and hanks Mrs.

I doubt it, unlikely to be the interest in those stories. I would've thought they would have combined it all into 1 somthing like this would've worked well I reckon (stolen from the reviews on google)

Because Aaron Paul is a bit older now it would have made more sense to start off 10 years later as well and perhaps revisit characters instead of these silly flashbacks with characters who lets just say gained a bit more weight and wrinkles ...

It would be interesting to see how characters have moved on.

Skylar as a broken down mom, Walter Jr as a crack addict, Walters daughter in a foster home ... Hank's wife committed suicide, skinny Pete a suburban loving dad, Badger a bank manager.
Grey matter going bankrupt and the couple split up...and the man now works at pollo hermanos, which is owned by someone else now

And then the name Heisenberg pops up again and the blue meth comes back unto the streets ... Skinny Pete and Badger start using again.

Pete loses his family, Badger his job.

Skylar gets in the news because of it and due to her extreme experiences with the shame and a decade of poverty does what every former mobster has done and says she embraces jesus now, sells a few books, some talkshow appearances...the works.
She gets things in order again, regains custody of her daughter, puts her son in rehab.

There is a cop who is alone in thinking there is some connection with the Walter White case 10 years ago and does some investigating ... thing is that you don't see Pinkman throughout most of the movie, you just hear about some new guy , being ruthlessly effective in becoming the biggest supplier in the market.

And you see some news bulletins of violent extermination of the competition, one of which involves a guys face being burned of with what forensic experts suspect to be a blow torch.
Fast cut to pollo hermanos where the former owner of Grey Matter now works, whom upon becoming employee of the month hears he is invited to the new owners house for a dinner to discuss his future.

He arrives at the house and is being received by a butler who brings him to a room to wait ... in walks Pinkman ( who now has a different name) holding a blow torch asking the butler to store it away before he sits down and says something like " so mr ...? Let's discuss your future at Pollo Hermanos.

So instead of Jesse trying to run away from his crimes, due to his experiences now has fully embraced his darker nature and perhaps in the closing scene show that something of Walter White rubbed of onto him when he speaks to a new distributor to partner with who tries to rip him off by stealing his meth, where he picks up one piece and says ... this is not Meth.
And he throws it on the ground.

When he walks out of the building to his car, we then see the cop investigating the case on his own taking pictures.

Gonna watch the joker tonight. I watched half of it already up to the point he gets the sack as a clown, I'm hoping it picks up abit after that as it felt a little slow.

You’ve got a lot to watch yet.

It does pick up...if you mean is there a few more killings but generally the theme throughout is his psychological breakdown of everything that happens to him so there is a lot of dark moody moments throughout.
