i thought it was a great way to end the show. i'm sure a lot of people just wanted eloise sitting in a chair in an empty room explaining shit for 2.5 hours. 5/23/2010 11:34:12 PM |

Great stand alone episode. Not what I expected or wanted, and I'm still confused by a lot, but I'm satisfied. 5/23/2010 11:34:13 PM |

I honestly would have been more satisfied with a 10 second intro of Jack sleeping on a plane, 2.5 hours of commercials, and then 10 seconds of someone waking him up saying it was all a bad dream.
Atleast then I would think the directors were just brilliant business men rather than mediocre writers.

has to be one of the (if not the #1) cop-out series finale ever.... they could have done so much more but wanted to be gay about it 5/23/2010 11:36:57 PM |

Exactly, the show has always been about people and the jacob scene last episode was most indicative of that. I was really kind of expecting Ben to die, i guess he got his fair share of revenge for not being able to move on but that was really the only thing i was disappointed with.

no, the sopranos had the #1 cop out finale. it was still good and made sense ending the series the way it started (a day in the life of a mafia boss), but it was still a cop out.5/23/2010 11:39:11 PM |
Schmitty All American 982 Posts user info edit post |
So when did the alternate time line begin? And how far in the future was it, since Ben and Hurley were presumably dead by then too? I think it was a cool idea, but right now it doesn't make much sense. 5/23/2010 11:39:13 PM |

so jack died on the island. how does he have a son then? 5/23/2010 11:39:36 PM |

Uh the alternate timeline is some kind of pre-afterlife it began when time began.

WORST FUCKING SERIES FINALE EVER.
WORSE THAN BATTLESTAR GALACTICA WORSE THAN STAR TREK VOYAGER WORSE THAN THE SOPRANOS WORSE THAN SEINFELD
So they were all dead on impact???

Agreed, Sopranos takes the cake on that one. They could have done a lot more with the finale but was a decent episode for just entertainment's sake

It essentially explained the sideways world and how it tied in but didn't answer any of the weird shit that happened when they were on the island. They were able to kinda tip-toe around that by tossing in alot of emotional stuff. In the end, lots of questions still remain. 5/23/2010 11:40:48 PM |

So, those of you that liked this episode/show enough to care to answer...what do you guys think happened in that ending? Was everyone there dead? Did Hurley, Ben, Sawyer, Kate, etc. all die later and then "meet up" with them? Why was Christian the one to walk out into that light? Did they die when the plane crashed? 5/23/2010 11:42:36 PM |

basically everything about the finale was fucking stupid. the entire alternate universe where jack is dead or whatever is completely pointless, and in the real world the island is powered by glowing water with a giant plug that you can't remove..... 5/23/2010 11:43:23 PM |
Shrike All American 9594 Posts user info edit post |
Yeah guys, the island, original timeline, whatever you want to call it was not purgatory. That all happened. The sideways universe was some sort pre-afterlife they all created after the detonation of jughead. 5/23/2010 11:43:37 PM |

everyone died at different points (Kate, Sawyer, etc. after getting off the island)
boone and shannon early on locke later juliette jack etc..
Christian explained it pretty well I thought...they were all there to help each other "let go" and move on 5/23/2010 11:43:50 PM |
Robopimp Veteran 439 Posts user info edit post |
The way I took it was they didn't die on impact. Everything on the island, including the shit that made no sense, was real. So, they fact that they eventually died of something doesn't all of a sudden made the unexplained weird shit make sense. 5/23/2010 11:43:59 PM |

Would have been better if they just said hey Jack, you're in the matrix and then unplugged him 5/23/2010 11:44:05 PM |
DannyBoy All American 883 Posts user info edit post |
^ right i think that they were all dead
Christian said to jack that some of them died before him and some died after. for some reason everyone in that room needed to meet up with one another before being able to 'move on.' presumably b/c that group had 2 timelines...they needed to join the 2 first? 5/23/2010 11:44:08 PM |
