Snake45 Posted February 15, 2020 Posted February 15, 2020 I see that tomorrow night (Feb 16) AMC will be showing El Camino, the Breaking Bad sequel movie. According to IMCDB, the title car is an '81 Elky, black with red SS-type stripes. Looking forward to it.
Dave Van Posted February 15, 2020 Posted February 15, 2020 It's been on Netflix for a while....GREAT movie.......
Snake45 Posted February 15, 2020 Author Posted February 15, 2020 Not everyone has Netflix. Here's your chance to see it if you have regular cable.
slusher Posted February 15, 2020 Posted February 15, 2020 I am looking forward to it as I have always been a fan of the show...
SCRWDRVR Posted February 15, 2020 Posted February 15, 2020 Pretty good movie, you won't be disappointed
BaBaBooey Posted February 15, 2020 Posted February 15, 2020 Great series, great movie. AMC is showing the movie because Better Call Saul starts the 23rd. Oddly enough, Netflix finally put the 4th season of BCS on this week. If anyone is a fan of the Albuquerque shenanigans, it's kind of an exciting time.
Mike999 Posted February 15, 2020 Posted February 15, 2020 "El Camino" tied things up pretty nicely. I don't have Netflix. But I do have antique geezer technology that...finds things. Fans probably noticed that the title of the last "Breaking Bad" episode was "Felina." According to the producer, that had a double meaning. It referred to the Marty Robbins song "El Paso," which Walter sings/hums all thru the last episode. But it was also an anagram for "Finale." Here's a guide to all the vehicles used in the series: https://breakingbad.fandom.com/wiki/Category:Vehicles
Rob Hall Posted February 15, 2020 Posted February 15, 2020 (edited) Saw the movie when it first debuted on Netflix last year..was quite good.. I remember the gold Fiero and Todd's El Camino in it, Skinny Pete and Badger had a big early 70s Thunderbird in green IIRC...can't find it on the IMCDB listing for the movie. Edit: it was a blue '72. https://breakingbad.fandom.com/wiki/1972_Ford_Thunderbird Looking forward to the upcoming season of the prequel Better Call Saul on AMC, starting back on the 23rd I think...saw a trailer for the upcoming season, looks like Nacho still has the red Javelin... I assume this season is when Jimmy/Saul ditches the decrepit Suzuki Esteem for the late 90s Caddy DeVille... Always enjoyed Breaking Bad and Better Call Saul...great writing and acting...interesting characters, love the locations...New Mexico/Albuquerque reminds me a lot of Colorado Springs and south central Colorado where I used to live..

Motor City Posted February 16, 2020 Posted February 16, 2020 Does the El Camino have a 4-speed manual? That was the last year for it, and I saw one for sale several years ago at a car show/swap meet in the western Detroit suburbs. I had to settle for a 4-speed automatic when I ordered my '87.

Column shift automatic IIRC..the shifter is visible in this still from the movie.
Motor City Posted February 16, 2020 Posted February 16, 2020 (edited) thanks, Rob; I'll have to see the movie; mine is almost the same color combination! Edited February 16, 2020 by Motor City eh

I have never watched Better Call Saul, was it any good.?? I did watch all of Breaking Bad and bought the dvd complete set..
Richard Bartrop Posted February 16, 2020 Posted February 16, 2020 Looks like AMC isn't showing it up here in the frozen north.

I would recommend it just because of the BB slip ins. Gives the background to a lot things in BB. Edited February 16, 2020 by BaBaBooey More info
BaBaBooey Posted February 16, 2020 Posted February 16, 2020 It's funny how BB made that Pontiac Aztec popular again. The Wagoneer in the show looked to be in great shape too. I might be remembering wrong, but didnt Jesse try to buy an El Camino from Badgers cousin the mechanic guy, but bought that POS red Toyota?

I like it..different story than Breaking Bad, well written w/ strong acting...interesting character development how Saul and Mike and other BB characters came about...

Agree completely. Very different story and tone from BB, but still excellent. What's really amazing about it is that nearly all the actors in it are comedians or comic actors, not "heavy drama" actors, yet they all do an amazing job with the drama. Well worth anyone's time!
Dave Van Posted February 16, 2020 Posted February 16, 2020 (edited) In some ways I like BCS better than BB and I loved it. Very different stories and arch. Can't wait to see where Saul is in the opening on the season......in the past it's where Saul is in his current day. Edited February 16, 2020 by Dave Van
