El Camino: A Breaking Bad Movie

Continuity mistake: Jesse Plemons gained a considerable amount of weight since "Breaking Bad" ended. As such, Todd Alquist is noticeably husky in his flashback appearances in this movie, even though in the original timeframe, he was more slender.

Deliberate mistake: In the lab where Jessie is working, the canister that Walter had put his bloody hand on when he dies at the end of Breaking Bad still has the bloody handprint on it from that episode. However, this part of the film takes place before that episode happens. In the behind the scenes, the director stated he didn't have the heart to remove the handprint and decided to leave it in as a little "Easter Egg"

Trivia: Towards the beginning of the movie, we see that Los Pollos Hermanos has become a restaurant called "Twisters." This is also what happened to the filming location in real life, and is still in business as Twisters to this day.

Trivia: The working title during production was "Greenbriar." Eventually, the title "El Camino" was unveiled, which in addition to being a model of Chevrolet car, also translates to "The Path" or "The Way" in Spanish.

Question: In Jesse's parents house, the height chart is scrawled on the door frame. Did they move back into the family home?

Answer: Unless I'm forgetting the show mentioning them moving, I believe the Pinkmans stayed in the same house. The house Jesse lived in and later bought under their noses after their expensive remodel was Jesse's aunt's house.
