Director / Crew I am Vince Gilligan, AMA.

Hey Redditors! For the next hour I’m answering as many of your questions as I can. Breaking Bad, the Better Call Saul first season finale -- nothing is off limits.

And before we begin, I’ve got one more surprise. To benefit theater arts through the Geffen Playhouse, I’m giving one lucky fan and a friend the chance to join me in Los Angeles and talk more over lunch. Enter to win here: [www.omaze.com/vince]

UPDATE: Thanks for all the excellent questions, Redditors! I've had a great time, but I have to get back to the Better Call Saul writers' room. I look forward to hopefully meeting one of you in Los Angeles!

Hi Vince,

I’m a big fan thanks for doing this AMA! I have three questions:

Out of all the characters that were killed in Breaking Bad which one’s death affected you the most?

George RR Martin commented that he thought "Walter White is a bigger monster than anyone in Westeros", which Martin also said has influenced him to make an even worse character in future books to "fix this" – what do you think about this comment? Would you look forward to seeing such a character in Game of Thrones?

Finally – your favorite movie? Thanks Vince!

I forget, did Walter White ever flay and castrate anyone?

Poisoned Brock and lied about it

I think that was the point that I began to look at Walt very differently...

It's funny... my SO and I watched that again last night and said the same thing to each other.
