After watching the Hank's Wedding Minisode, this totally changes, Hank always looked up to Walt's old confidence in life, he felt like he was his little brother who always had something to learn. When Walt's life became boring throughout the years and he started to be more of a quiet and soft person, Hank tried his best to make him go back to his former spirit glory, that's why the scenes between them feel so awkward when they just don't share the same vibes anymore. But here you see Hank, seeing that side of him again, for a minute, it was his old and emotionally strong buddy again telling him to man up and to not fall until he gives his last breath.

Despite the dark and truly ugly transformation Walt goes through over Breaking Bad, this scene goes to show that at least a part of his change is low-key inspiring. He really did push against his fears, he really did work like a maniac and become the best in his field, he really did fight and sacrifice and struggle and overcome almost impossible odds. He conquered his fear and became a force to be reckoned with. Its the basic structure of any good hero story (whether in fiction or in real life). The problem is, he sacrificed his morality to do it. And he let the wrong motives - like ego, resentment, rage, greed, spite, etc - pollute him entirely. Walt had 50 years of repression and dissatisfaction to vent, and then a cancer diagnosis came along to blow the top off the volcano let it all explode out at once. Tragically, if Walt had taken his own advice earlier in life then it all could have been avoided. He could have learned to face his fears and manage his ego. He could have integrated his shadow and asserted himself properly. He could have put his genius to good use and made a positive difference in the world (instead of slowly poisoning it). If he`d done that, Heisenberg would never have needed to exist - and we`d have had a happier, more confident, more successful, fully actualised Walter White. Still, it makes for TRULY good television that that didn't happen... God bless all. And good luck kicking whatever it is you need to right in the teeth.

Every single actor on this show does such a phenomenal job of listening and being present for their scene partners. It makes the tremendous writing land that much more when you see that the characters are really taking in what’s being expressed. This truly is the best show, on so many levels.
If BrBa was told from Hank's POV, this one of the scenes that fans would theorize as evidence towards Walter being Heisenberg.
I think a very subtle yet powerful bit of acting from Dean Norris is at 0:17 right after Walt tells Hank that he can talk to him. You can see his body get more loose and he leans in slightly as he's about to open up to Walt before he tightens up again and comes up with a an excuse to no share anything. He wants to open up to Walt but he's scared and his pride won't let him share his feelings. When I first watched this scene I thought Hank was insulting Walt when he said they don't have a lot of overlapping experiences by saying he wasn't qualified due to living a "simple" life but I don't think that's the case anymore. I think Hank was afraid that if he opened up nobody would understand what he was feeling and why he was having panic attacks and his justification for that was that nobody had scene the horrors that he had.

Fear is the mind killer. After the fear is gone. Only I will remain
“The only thing we have to fear is fear itself”
“That fear, that’s the worst of it, thats the real enemy” one of the best and most real lines in the series
As a person who struggles with anxiety, ive always found this somewhat comforting.
Really tragic scene to look back on with retrospect, Walt truly loved Hank as a brother. One of my favourite scenes in the entire show
One of my fav scenes ever. Than you Vince.
Jesus, I completely forgot about this scene. Maybe I wasnt ready for it at the time I watched BB, but its got a ton of meaning and weight behind it now.
Today i looked for this scene. It amazed me from the first time i saw it, and it still does. You know, i empathize with Hank and his fears about his experiences, and Walt, in this scene, works as a consciousness for him. My favorite details are the looks of these two characters: 1) Hank looking to Walt after the speech. He understands W.'s words, he is surprised from being "hit" by a man he retained weak, like Walt. 2) Walt last look, facing the wall, after the speech. He was finally awake, free to be himself, free to talk with the "voice" he kept shut for a lifetime. Both of them lived a near-death experience, in two different ways, with two different answers, in two different roles. And thats the result. In this scene i think that the one who talk with Hank is the "new" Walt, the perfect result of the Old Walt and his negative, Heisenberg. I think that Heisenberg is a result of a life spent in fear, greed and remorse without having a way to show it. Heinseberg growed up as an identity cancer, and when walt faced the death with no return, he let Heinseberg free, with pros and cons. So he will spent the rest of his time finding himself again, trying to balanced the Heisenberg identity. Which part kill and which part let live? The rest is history...an incredible history. (sorry for eventual mistakes...Savonarola)
I gotta rewatch this entire series, it’s so good
The lighting in Hanks bedroom when its just him and Walt tends to always be awesome
Between this and the "A man provides" speech, Breaking Bad gives us some of the best and most honest man-to-man motivational speeches in recent film/television history. Say what you want about what exactly gets done, but there's no question that men get it done.
"My whole life I've been scared, but now that I know I will no longer have to face any consequences of my actions because I will be dead in a year from now, I sleep just fine". Yeah, you don't say bro, thanks for the advice

THE BEST SCENE
Loved Dean's acting here durrning walts speach. He goes from depressed/worried to currious about what walt was about to say, then almost sort of intemidated/ashamed at how clearly Walt was talking after hank tried to rise above/distance himself from walt with his comment about them not haveing an overlap in experiance as hank could not hold his gaze at walt. then bucking up and have a solid gaze and a shocked but angry look ready to spring into action after walt tolld him to get up and kick that B*****d as hard as he could.
walter looks cell shaded
There's another aspect of this scene not many people talk about. Hank is a DEA agent, and alot of aspects of his job left him traumatized, with PTSD, and likely unable to sleep at night. Walt might have said since his cancer diagnosis he sleeps just fine, but that diagnosis also directly correlates with his ventures into the criminal underworld. Keep in mind he'd already killed two people at this point. It really highlights the nature and psychology with the two characters and how they contrast
Of course Walt can do this. He’s a teacher.
"Get up, make it fun for me" That is all I heard.
Hank stands up in the end… sitting
Greatest TV series of all time. Respect 🙏
You have to wonder how much of Hank's blinding rage (once he found out who WW really is) was based on his hurt ego, rather than an indomitable sense of justice as a lawman. Surely, he would be forced to think of moments like this, knowing that the whole time Walt was playing 3D chess and he was fumbling at the checkers board.
Hank was my favourite character in this show. Started as a douchebag blowhard, went through hell, but proved himself a good cop and a good man in the end. Went out like a boss. Him and Gomez really were a great duo.

Yeah but I think Walts intentions were good here. He sees Hank at his lowest like he was when he found out about the cancer, and he motivates him to keep going and not to let fear stop him, when it's in Walts best interest to motivate him or push Hank towards taking as much time as he needs or quitting. There's really no benefit for Walt to do this.
Glad Walter learned something from Tuco
I love how Hank is like "you wouldn't understand" and then Walt is like "well maybe I do" Obviously Walt is referring to the fact that he was literally there with Tuco the day the shooting happened which spurred on Hank's PTSD Walt is struggling with the exact same trauma but he obviously cant talk about that with Hank so as to not blow his cover, so he talks about his cancer instead. Two people who went through the same traumatic experience with the same monster of an individual and the only one who knows about it is Walter. This makes me sympathise with Walt so much more.
No means to be rooting for Walt, but I think the "Walt is narcissistic lol" observations from this scene is actually funny. This is the first time Walt actually opens up about his feelings.
For people saying that Walt was making it about himself, sometimes you need to share something vulnerable about yourself first to make someone comfortable with doing the same. Hank didn’t really want to talk about it so Walt had to step in and ease him into by sharing something personal as well.
Imagine if he had confessed right here after his speech
Tragic
1:54 Gladly, sir.
And finally after that, hank got up and kicked himself in the face like a real man.
I love the part where you see Hank swelling up 💪
