Yea I never picked up on that part of his persona either but now it seems obvious. I love that show so much, there is so much foreshadowing and symbolism. Honestly though I doubt he kills Skyler (although I hope he does because she is so fucking annoying). I think the 52 bacon is more of nostalgic moment, remembering a time when things were more simple and what he has given up for this journey.

So does killing Mike, who was really driven by saving money for his grandaughter, ultimately make WW want to give up the drug dealing lifestyle and get back to his family? Seemed like thats where we left off with him.

Also does this apply to Jesse? He killed that relatively innocent scientist who was working with Walt under Gus. Has he killed anyone else?

I find this to be a fascinating revelation in the character development of Walter White, so I've been thinking about it a lot today (mostly because work is less interesting to think about). Anyway following this theory and line of thought, WW wouldn't necessarily take on the primary motivation of his "enemy", he would be taking on the character traits that make the person he consumed powerful, and things like the crustless bread would be more of a symptom of that. In fact the character trait of Mike you reference would probably be view by Walter as more of a weakness or liability. This is a pretty common super-villain characteristic also, absorbing the powers of his conquered foe's to make himself all powerful. Which is where I believe we are headed with Walter White. IMO WW will either become the biggest bad ass their is or he will destroy everything trying to full fill that fantasy. I guess it depends on whether you (or the writers) consider Walter to be a villain or a hero, Im betting on villain. This concept is also present in lots of ancient cultures, especially cannibalistic ones. The Aztec's would eat the heart of their enemies to gain their courage and other tribes consumed the brains to gain knowledge and so on.

Jessie I believe is a stark contrast to WW, and this theory applies in the opposite to him. When Jessie kills people it tears him up inside, eats his soul, and destroys who he is.

Another possible ending I just realized is that Jessie could be Walters savior.
 
"All I can tell you is... two things: A) You will not be disappointed, I promise, I promise, I promise. B) Every single storyline will be buttoned up, and there will be no loose ends. It's going to redefine last seasons of television. Its going to redefine series finales, which are almost inevitably disappointing. This one will not disappoint. I've seen all eight episodes. I've seen it through to the end, and I sat in front of my screen crying, myself, alone, during the last couple of episodes."

Have you ever heard/read anything about colors in the show? Certain characters are (almost) always framed by certain colors. Walter White, Jesse Pinkman, Skylar White (sky = blue). Marie wears purple almost every time you see her and many scenes are completely tinted orange or blue. However the colors each character represents seem to shift over the course of the show. Google it.

I have no idea where the show is going but I figure Jesse has to figure out about Walt poisoning the kid, letting his girlfriend die, almost killing him during the train heist, and killing Mike. Jesse clearly became the moral compass of the two, but a more interesting development from last season IMO was that Jesse started hatching plans and generally thinking things through better. Meanwhile, Walter stopped thinking as rationally and started acting on emotion and becoming prone to mistakes. If it does come down to those two going after one another, they could be setting it up for Jesse to take advantage of Walt's hubris as Walt did with the other kingpins hes bested.

I've read some interesting theories about how WW may just try to frame Jesse and perhaps hes been setting it up for quite some time.

Yes I have heard about the colors. I saw an interview with the director who said they use those colors to help subltly and instantly move people into the mind frame of a particular characters story line without having to do any story line catch up. The example he used were the hit man brothers from season3. They got a special ommonious tint when it was their story time, and while watching season 3 I remember knowing something bad ass was about to happen with them before they were even in the scene. I have also noticed the purple with Marie pretty often, in fact my girlfriend would always bring that up. Ill read more into each characters colors and what they represnent when I have the time, thanks for the reminder.

Also on a side note, I read the other day that a spin off series is planned with Saul Goodman (the lawyer). I have high expectations for that one as Saul is one of my favorite characters.
 
Interesting

"We're very afraid of what may happen to Jesse in the final eight episodes of "Breaking Bad," but we should all be grateful that Walt White's meth-making partner made it past the first season of the AMC drama, because he wasn't supposed to originally. Two-time Emmy winner Paul says series creator Vince Gilligan told him he had intended for Jesse to die in the show's ninth episode, but the 2007-08 Hollywood writers' strike gave Gilligan a chance to reconsider the decision.

Gilligan thought he was sharing a bit of good news with the actor — his character had proven too compelling and valuable to off — but Paul says it actually made him paranoid about his job for a couple of years… a fact that ornery co-star Bryan Cranston used to his advantage to play occasional pranks on Paul."
