funny that you mention that—i've actually gone and re-watched the scene myself and you're right, it's kind of incredible how much they tried to hide that emotionally powerful moment from the viewer. upon my second viewing, even though i knew exactly what was going to happen, i literally had to sweep my eyes across the screen a few times before i finally noticed where mike and walt were located, tucked behind some bushes in the lower right corner of the shot.

RIP mike
kind of the extreme inverse of the minutely-detail-oriented cinematography that the show's been known for so far, now that i think about it. or, a perfect example of it, depending on how you look at it.
either way, i hate my shitty facebook friend, this would've been an amazing experience if i'd been allowed to have it unprejudiced the first time through
