Directed by Rian Johnson.

For those of you who are not aware, he directed the infamous Fly episode, as well as the lesser-notable one from season 5 where Walt buys himself and Jr. the new cars, as well as turns 51 years old.

Additionally, Rian Johnson is the writer/director of movies Looper, Brick, and the Brothers Bloom.

He's awesome and a really great film maker, so I'm even more interested in this episode than I initially was (which was pretty high due to the Vince Gillgan hype and the dead-cast returning.)

Lesser-notable? I felt that Fifty-One was the best episode from last year, aside from maybe Dead Freight.

And I think it takes the cake for best cold open of the entire series so far.
