Vince Gilligan Didn't Know What To Do With Walt's Machine Gun | Breaking Bad #shorts

It was one of the best parts, ive noticed some of the best things in shows ands movies are by accident or on a whim

Chekhov's literal gun.

Vince wrote this show like "thats future vince's problem now" 😂

It ended up being one of the most iconic and memorable parts of the show. But only because of the execution. There was no other way to pull off Walt using an M60 than him building a contraption.

He didn't have a fucking plan for it? Coulda fooled me. Don't do this often, but man, Vravo Bince

JJ Abrams would just completely forget about it

And then he does it again with a Nuke in Pluribus

honestly even without the payoff, it still works as a bigger allegory for his power tripping/overzealous reclamation of his masculinity. Buying a big ass gun he can't hold, purely out of ego, is super on-brand.

Nah the M60 was so cool to see especially to us gun nerds

Not only was the M60 an amazing scene but MythBusters proved that it's possible

And yet it was one of the best scenes in the show.

"i did it for myself, I was good at it" the machine gun really paybacks when you have walter as character and the writers

The m60 scene was amazing

I think this is a great plot trope. I also liked the eye in the pool thing. It makes you wonder what's gonna happen.

Walter using the machine gun like he did was amazing.

He just did this in Pluribus with a literal nuke.

It’s literally the way Walt saves Jesse gets revenge and kills himself all in one

That one was good cause the payoff was so huge, the one I HATED was being teased about the plane crash for the entirety of season two. That freaking plushie on the water was so overdone

How mcguffins are born.

I thought it sort of ruined the ending. A high-school chemist build a turret.
