Mike was the only person in the show that was actually in the game to support his family. But the feds took all of his money, and Walter killed him because he hurt his feelings. Everything Mike did was for nothing, and his family will never get closure. RIP Finger

[@Micha-kv5dl]

At least they got a new apartment and all the things mike got for them before 😔

[@nameless_rambler]

What do you mean? He’s chilling in the suns of Belize 🤨

Edits like this make me realize just how brilliant the writing is.

[@Kunk_Manjeroon]

I love Mike. Walter lies about doing it for his family, getting satisfaction out of his evil and glory. Mike doesn't see glory in his actions, only a future for his family. He's a polar opposite to Walt and I just love him so much.

[@Sernival]

Walt wanted his family to remember him as a provider to look up to because he only remembers his father as weak, he wanted to do it directly in his own way. He wanted their approval almost as much as he wanted his own, because he was disrespected by his relatives on a regular basis. Breaking Bad's writing is much better than that

[@alexor081]

​@@SernivalIn the start, but his Heisenberg transition indicated that he didn't care about all the rest anymore. The scene with Jesse, "The people we killed, Gail, and the rest." At the start he had reasons but as he was going on, he simply wanted to be a better crime boss than Gustavo. Almost like a caricature villain. Lots of cringy lines with awesome deliveries.

[@Godloveszaza]

So that's the excuse yall have for loving Mike the hypocritical serial killer who couldve been left the game and lived peacefully but yet still chose to be with gus as if he didn't have millions? Sorry to break it to you but Mike was also doing this for his own rationales and not just for family. Both characters did this for family its just that walt actually loved the lifestyle and his ego more than anyone and thing but nonetheless he still cared for his family and seen the money as theirs. You cannot sit here and act like Mike did all of this solely for family and walt did it solely for the love of the thrill.

[@Kunk_Manjeroon]

@@Godloveszaza Yeah, I guess you're right.

[@Whaddayamean13]

Mike just buried himself deeper into his gangster work but justified with this "code" he claims to have, where he'll only kill if he has to or for his family. It's why I love the scene with Papa Varga, where he totally shatters his disillusionment and confirms his transition to being a full-on bad dude in Breaking Bad.

[@basiosrasian225]

It’s honestly a brilliant and subtle character arc.

[@flightofthebumblebee9529]

Papa Vargas gave Mike a much needed hard dose of truth. But I do disagree with Papa because they're NOT all the same. Mike had a heart, which is why he was there. Gus, Walt, Hector, etc, they were soulless by a certain point.

[@Fredrickthe2nd]

@@flightofthebumblebee9529 what's the point of having a heart If you're not going to use it he may care more than Gus but he still helps Gus at every turn and makes sure Gus can stay alive and hurt more people all just for money

[@thecowboy9698]

​@@flightofthebumblebee9529- Actually, Papa Varga didn't, for he said the words in Spanish, which Mike couldn't understand, so Mike never really got the message, at least not fully, but Mike could no doubt see and hear the contempt in Papa Varga's face and voice when the latter uttered those words. My guess as to the reason Papa Varga didnt utter those words in English was probably to avoid the possibe risk of Mike shooting him should Mike not like what was said.

[@darkknight-ls1dp]

mike is one of the greatest characters ever

[@Cubingkid1234]

Hands down one of the greatest characters in tv history.

[@chrisg.k487]

Oh yeah.

[@giodoray]

I feel for all of us, whenever Mike spoke, everyone listened. I may be making breakfast while watching BB or BCS, but if Mike was talking, I'd pause, drop what I was doing, and just listen. Such a powerful character and this edit highlights exactly that.

You make breakfast while watching? Make the breakfast first and then watch 🗿 this show is too good to not watch carefully

[@theawaited]

me but with iroh

[@babineaux.]

@@OoLiiMiiT3Dwhen you watch for 3rd time nah

[@Revolt-Theory]

Mike really does deserve his own series. He's such a dimensional character with so much depth. He's one of my favourite characters, even outside of Breaking Bad and Better Call Saul.

[@tix3027]

if you think about it BCS was essentially his own series. BCS was shared by both Saul, Kim, and Mike. Without mike Saul wouldn't have been as involved with the Salamanca's, it could've ended entirely with Tuco.

[@Robin-bg4lq]

bcs is his serie

[@bettertube]

That overlap between maddy's wife and mike saying "realised haven't thought about it" was so genius observation. Same goes with overlap of stars dailogue between that architect death scene and kelle starwatching😮

[@sandrovilaca6928]

Not motivational quotes, not sigma male bs, just the truth. This is one of the best edits about BCS and BB

[@thecowboy9698]

What do you mean "sigma male" bs? I don't understand.

[@sandrovilaca6928]

​@@thecowboy9698sigma male edits, with all that Patrick Bateman crap and "literally me" edits about some problematic characters that people use to justify their lives

[@angelaisacliche]

Here I am, just casually enjoying this, going 'wow this is really good, it really captures who Mike is and his whole story', and being quietly impressed, and then then the ending makes my heart jump into my throat and I tear up. Why'd you do me like that?

[@wilt2303]

The ending of this masterpiece of a video is genius. I interpret it as the idea that no matter who passes away, the stars up in the sky will stay. So perhaps Mike realized at this moment that his regret would be to spend more time with his loved ones instead of focusing too much on getting them money. Perhaps that sometimes, you just want to look at the stars with your granddaughter. He knew at this moment that he wouldn't be able to be visiting Kaylee too much anymore due to the choices he made, but that he'll be watching over her forever, like a star.

[@kindnessiscontagious3669]

This is literally the best BCS edit I have ever seen. I can tell you put a lot of time and work into this, well done! Earned a subscriber.

[@4am446]

even down to linking clips from massive time gaps together with what mike was saying

[@BoonkyEdits]

Wow! This edit is bone chilling. The song of choice is surprisingly good for Mike's character

[@bettertube]

Mike is the character i respect the most in the BB/BCS universe❤ i look up to him like someone we all can learn a lot from

[@Cadentpack]

its tragic how after all that hes sacrifice for his family. hes the one that truly lost everything hes worked hard to get were he was. and it was all for nothing. his family was screwed over because of walt. its saddening to see someones story end like this..

[@metim3011]

Best edit of bb and bcs ever❤

[@thereccher8746]

Mike's backstory in BCS is one of the best episodes of television ever made.

[@moon-forestt]

This edit looks like a trailer prequel, amazing.

[@SaulGone613]

WOW You captured a central theme, and you used a freaking awesome montage, how appropriate! RESPECT

[@richy_edits]

This is a killer edit bro, hella underrated

[@AxOwLynx00777]

So as to die, not fighting, not crying, not hurting, where no prayers are sung and no bells heard, to die in peace with but one wish that those we hold so close never hurt to know we fought so hard. Coming ever so far in a battle that really didn't matter, but just in peace their image comes clear in view with blue skies unending. Rest now weary traveler, you're battle has ended...

[@edwardga7624]

Stumbled on this masterpiece now. Bro you are a genius. Perfect edit: the way you cut shots / audio that start or sync same words is just unbelievably smooth

[@EitaGui]

MY BROTHER, THIS EDIT IS FREAKING PERFECT, THE SCENES MATCHING TO THE CHARACTERS SPEAKING, YOU ARE A GOD

[@williamkeese489]

“YOU! And your pride and your ego!” is one of my favorite deliveries in the series.

This is beautiful I come back to this many times a month

4:38 I love this transition.

[@sebastiancaris]

Normally these edits are awesome, epic and everything (specially Lalo’s) But this one is sad ):

[@nooneyouknow239]

BCS Mike was a good man who tried his hardest to not be the bad guy. BB Mike was a good man accepting he's the bad guy. And even then, he was one of the few characters you route for.

[@janno8116]

THIS IS BEAUTIFUL. It moved me deeply, now that I've finished watching both shows and cannot get over the fact that it's over now. This is one of the best edits I've ever seen.

[@chaoticfangurl567]

Mike didn’t get a happy ending but that’s what makes him such an impactful character.

[@alexandrejunior8404]

Excellent job. Congrats

[@JohnnieDouglas-nz9bl]

I love Mike he knows he's cold and beyond redemption but the good in his life is what he protects also he knows walts an ego maniac and Jesse is a good kid but a tragic hero definitely

[@mv8680]

The most incredibly well put together edit I've seen so far, out of all the ones I've seen my entire life, out of all the various shows and forms of media none has put so much meticulous detail into the audio, clips, dialogue and put them together like this. I'd love to see you make one of my favorite show the Sopranos. Incredible!

[@mateuslopss18]

This final scene.. heart breaking

[@ButtersCCookie]

Thanks. Was enjoyable.

[@WaterDrinker011]

This is quality

[@RudyBoy]

This is the best edit I've seen. Your understanding of the subject matter and film language makes this an art. Vince and Peter definetely should see this

[@thechonkconge]

"I never said you're a bad guy, I said you're a criminal." Sums up Mike in general.

I still believe they could bring him back in a sequel, as if everyone thought he died there but he just survived and went off the radar.

The editing of this is amazing. It really highlights how amazing the cinematography of these shows were.

[@Beslan_Myths_And_Facts]

[@kevinreinke4768]

Very well made 👏

[@thecowboy9698]

Sometimes I wonder if Mike was developed as a character to mirror Walt. Walt claimed everything he was doing was for his family, yet Mike showed what that truly looks like.

[@lunael0012]

he died for nothing. Even cops took all the money he earned for his family.

[@Makylucky]

So sad

Mike was the representation of what walyer could have been if he grown old without anyone knowing what he did he would have ended up directly like mike
