While awaiting the arrival of the 3rd season of the prequel, centered on the invaluable advocate, we compiled the easter eggs honoring the original series.
Knowing that a link existed between the two series is obvious. Already, basic, you know. That’s all. Then, the universe, the sets, the plans: you find plenty of things. Also characters, including future lawyer “Saul Goodman” or Mike. And it’s not over ! The first two seasons of the prequel are filled with references to her creator, the Breaking Bad series. Here are some easter eggs.
Jimmy bump into a Cinnabon
From the opening scene, boom: a black and white image where he is seen wearing a mustache and holding the perfect sandwich preparer: apron and cap showing the brand name (Cinnabon), gloves. Which brings us back to Season 5 (Granite State episode), when Walter and “Saul” discuss what to do next if we need to stop in case of emergencies . Jimmy / Saul balance that he will make low profile, that will make a taf hidden while changing identity. What taf? “In the best of cases, I run a Cinnabon in Omaha . ” That seems to have been done. And we hear that it is called “Gene” .
The manicure salon
Before landing in his fat office of Breaking Bad, Saul made with the means of the edge. And at the beginning, it was in a cramped room of Ms. Nguyen’s aesthetic salon, as seen in Better Call Saul. A universe for which he retains a certain tenderness since he proposes this as an idea to launder money . Two times. In season 3 (episode “Kafkaesque”), to Jessy. Then to Walter in season 5.
The desert as a place of death … or almost
It is impossible not to remember the episode, in the 5th and last season of Breaking Bad, where Walter humiliates his opponent by leaving him as coldly as authoritatively: “Say my name” . When it stank, it reverses the situation. Well, James / Saul does the same from the second episode, “Mijo”. His fucking plan to get under, with two losers, takes him into the wilderness, with a Tuco decided to all butt . And the talented orator of the future lawyer saves them.
The Marco Ring
Before moving to Albuquerque, to follow his brother, Jimmy lived in Chicago. Without going so far as to say that he made the 400 shots, he made some bad ones. With his buddy Marco, precisely. The two lascars squatted a bar, unrolled their combine to draw money from businessmen, and life was rolling. In Better Call Saul, Jimmy goes back a few days in Chicago, finds his buddy and they make a final blow together. When Marco died of a heart attack. This is where Jimmy gets his ring, at the request of the deceased, after the funeral. The ring he carries to the little finger of the left hand in Breaking afterwards . And that symbolizes his penchant for scams.
Loyola’s Family Restaurant
Mike’s privileged location when he has to set an important appointment. In Breaking Bad, it is Jessy (season 4) and Lydia (season 5) who find it there. In Better Call Saul, we see Mike go there and obviously be a regular . At ease, he speaks with the waitress, limiting a little flirting. And it is there that he meets Hector Salamanca, who offers him an offer that he can not refuse. The creators pushed vice by using this restaurant as Jimmy’s meeting place with the Kettlemen family, as his office is a bit pitiful at this time.
The Casa Tranquila retirement home
This is where Jimmy inventes a specialist in the right of defense of the elderly, distributes his cards and seeks a big file to land the company that runs this barracks, and others in the country. And this Casa Tranquila is the same place where Hector Salamanca finds himself in Breaking Bad , when Tuco was killed. The old tent tries to build a plan to take revenge on Walter, Gus goes to see him, and so on. Until the moment when the two blow up their faces, especially Gus who gets trapped, by the craft bomb of Walter. This end of season 4, fucking. Who wants to complete with his finds (there are at least a dozen other references)?

Among all the winks made to the saga, Star Wars: Rogue One establishes a secret link with A New Hope that you may not have spotted. Warning spoilers, obviously.
If you are fans of Star Wars and that you went to see Snape One cinema, you necessarily like us: to drive the winks and easter eggs made to the rest of the saga. And you have found full necessarily, whether the – SPOILER careful – ” I have a bad feeling ” K-2 SO or the presence of some well known faces from previous episodes. Because, yes, although Gareth Edwards admitted he eased off in terms of references, Rogue One abounds still winks seven guns episodes of the franchise, and even the animated series Star Wars: Rebels . But as exercised as your eyes are and as observant as you are, there is necessarily an element that escaped you. Yet it establishes a secret link between Star Wars: Rogue One and A New Hope, which are already connected in many ways. However, it is not because you lack training that you missed this reference. In reality, it’s because … some images featuring secondary characters of Star Wars: Rogue One comes directly from what was shot in 1977 for A New Hope !
Before continuing, we would like to warn you that the sequel contains some minor spoilers, so if you have not seen the movie, we can not advise you too much. As for those who have gone to see him , they will recall the battle that takes place in space above Scarif led by Admiral Raddus, replacing Ackbar in Star Wars: Rogue One , while squads The Rebel Alliance are trying to destroy the shield that surrounds the planet. If the faces of the leaders of the Red and Gold squadrons seemed familiar to you, it is because there is a good reason. For imagine that the images in which they appear were filmed in 1977 to be integrated in the Battle of Yavin, but were never used . At least until now!
In an interview with the Radio Times website, Gareth Edwards has indeed admitted having found these unused sequences during his visit to Skywalker Ranch, where the offices are located Lucasfilm . ” We went to Skywalker Ranch where they keep their archives. And while we were doing a lot of cool stuff, like watching the Millennium Falcon, try the jacket Han Solo and all this stuff we saw at the bottom of the Reels of the movies.We asked what it was and we were told, ‘Oh, it’s Star Wars.’ And then they ask, ‘Has anyone ever sorted it out?’ ‘And they said something like.’ no, not really, the images have not been completely digitized ‘ . “. So naturally, neither one nor two, Gareth Edwards and his team have used in this immense source of archived footage and images never used to see if they could use some . And this is how Garven Dreis (Drewe Henley) and Jon Vander (Angus MacInnes) came back to life and participated in the Battle of Scarif! What did you think of this space battle?
