Wow.
Here's how it started:Whoever makes those comics is ******g hilarious
Yeah there's a few signs that point to potential foreshadowing of everyone's death (one small example is when Walt was watching Scarface with Walt Jr, he says "doesn't everyone die in this movie?"). However, I don't like reading into small things like that. Gilligan knows his audience is smart, he's more than likely just throwing out little hints for us to theorize but that may or may not lead to something.
Honestly, I don't think I'll stop rooting for Walt. I'm well aware of the evil things he's done and I was almost through with him when he killed Mike but that still didn't stop me from cheering for Walt in the following episode. Anna Gunn explained it very well on Breaking Bad. We veered towards him from the start because he was a broken man who never had much going for him, was kicked around for most of his life and then was diagnosed with cancer. The audience had many things to identify itself with Walt and so we took a liking towards Walt because he started to play the game by his own rules, something most of us wish we could do. He was an average Joe and decided "**** that, I'm doing what I gotta do."If Walt did attempt to kill Jesse, isn't that where the entire audience gives up on Walt and stops rooting for him?
Jesse has always been the one that everyone figures to survive, if Walt tries to take him out, his own partner who helped Walt get into the game in the first place, I don't see how everyone could back that.
Also, I find it REALLY ironic, that if Season 5 never happens, and we didn't think it would, they would have ended Season 4 with Walt and Jesse bein just fine, and walkin off into the sunset with their money. Remember them cleanin up the laundry mat together.
I never could have imagined Season 5 working out like this. Tremendous job by the writers.
Also, Matrix nod last week?
Red van for a new life, Blue pack of cigs to go back to his old life and fight a new battle.

So in a sense, it's like we're living the life of a badass vicariously through Walt and even though we realize that he's gone overboard and that his character has completely transformed from S1 to present time, we still want to finish the story with him. Most of us probably accept that he's going to die as well but we just want to be there on his side until he's gone. That's at least how I feel about it. Don't judge me.
