I was enjoying the island timeline immensely, but kind of scratching my head at the alt universe. I kept waiting for how it would end on that side.
Then came the scene in the room with the coffin. That was surreal. At that point I realized how great it was, and it all came together with the other stuff on the island.
Like I said earlier, when Jack stumbled into the bamboo I saw where that was going and I was just in awe.

Pretty sure at some point during these 6 years EVERYONE knew it would end like it did in that final scene, I just don't think anyone would've thought it'd be set up to come off so powerfully.

How often is the last scene of a show the greatest scene of a show? Especially a show this great?

It's obviously debatable, but I feel the final scene is the greatest moment in the show's history. I probably thought "We have to go back" was until tonight.

I'm firmly in the camp that calls it one of the greatest endings to a show ever. They didn't explain a lot but at the end of it I didn't want them to, it was about the characters and their journeys and what an incredible journey it was, I honestly don't think a show will ever come close to doing what Lost has done for a long time.

The producers said they wanted the show to end where the viewer felt the story was wrapped up, but the meaning was left to the viewer's own interpretation. If that was the goal of the people making the show, I don't think there's any question that they pulled it off perfectly.

The people who hated the finale are the people who watched the show firmly for the mysteries of the Island. The mysteries and strange connections are what drew me in to the show, but I would never have kept watching or cared if not for the characters I was watching.

The journey of those characters was completed in a conclusive manner, especially Jack's tale.

I only really started posting alot in this thread during this season, which is too bad because this is the best place I found to discuss the show.

Glad so many of you enjoyed the ending.

I'm not even sure if that made any sense, I've been awake now for about 30 hours so I'm pretty tired.
That is because these shows take place in their own universe. You accept that Doctor Who can time travel and do the shit he does because those are the rules for that tv show's universe. If all of a sudden Buffy turned into some flying superhero, it wouldn't fit into that universe. The special gifts are part of the Lost universe, but we understand why the Doctor does what he does.

I liked the finale.

though after thinking on i, I firmly do not believe this was the plan from day 1 (or at least many things changed) and the show was written as they go. Which is fine, but they like to play up the "we knew all along shit".

I still cant get over the idea that Jacob brought everone to the island as candidates and watched for 5 seasons while HIS PEOPLE continually tried to kill his candidates and allow them to leave only to come back in time etc.

I liked the ending, but i can see some frustration as they dropped so many elements and stories over the seasons.

And I love how in season one, most people were calling the Island as Purgatory, or the afterlife, and the producers were all " No, The ISLAND isnt" *grins*

totally fucking hilarious to me.

This

The more I think about it, the more I think that this was one of the most clever season finale's ever.

We've spent 6 years talking about our own opinions about what the Island is, etc. I think we've got enough about the island, but I also think it leaves so much "unanswered" that it allows you to keep your own opinions on what has been going on, what everyone is, etc.

Beautiful!

I was overcome with happiness over how the show ended, but some sadness too realizing the show is over. I loved how every character was awakened by the most important things in their lives, especially Jin and Sun and Sawyer and Juliet.

The jughead? I see that as simply being "the incident" of which we first heard about in Series 2.. The whole whatever happened, happened thing comes in. They were always meant to go back in time, and they were always meant to set off the bomb.

Yeah, but I thought it was interesting that Sayid awoke with Shannon who he basically had a fling with on the island instead of Nadia.

One interpretation of the ending where Sayid and Shannon end up together is that it's Jack's heaven, so it includes everyone that was around for the most important part of his life. Since Jack never knew Nadia it seems to make the most sense that Sayid and Shannon reunite if this interpretation is true. In Sayid's heaven he should be with Nadia.

I'm so excited for the eventual blockbuster movie directed by JJ Abrams. LOL! I think they definitely left room for the show to be revisited later in a prequel or sequel type manner.

I would definitely like to see how Ben and Hurley managed the island/ who their replacements were and the backstory for them. Ben's motives for staying could be interesting as well. Perhaps Walt returning to the island to free his father could be some sort of basis for a movie 5 years from now or so.

Also, when Eloise asked Desmond if he was going to take her son that told a lot about her knowledge. I think a prequel fleshing her story out could be intriguing as well.

I don't know about you guys, but I still have a hell of a lot of questions. Maybe because I don't want it to end. Actually that's exactly what it is. Damn that show. Beautiful end.

That's fair enough that you would want those things, but I personally would hate it if they revisited it at some point, especially for a movie a few years down the line.

It ended brilliantly and I would just love it to stay that way.

I don't/didn't ever want it to end but if they ever made a film etc, I think I'd murder Hollywood. But they won't.

It was a nice ending but I still feel unsastified when it's all said and done it's like the writers brought in all this sappy stuff to make peeps forget about all the plot holes made along the way.

They know full well that the backlash would far exceed the excitement. Not to mention the fact that the writers and creators flat out wouldn't do it, I don't think. I don't know them, so I can't say with certainty, but I'm pretty confident of how they operate, from years of watching their show and listening to them.

Not to mention any kind of film exploring the stuff Next Big Thing mentioned simply wouldn't draw. There's no respectable way to continue or expand upon the stories of Jack and Locke, and they're the big guns.

I wouldn't have wanted a movie or spinoff anyways, but after last night I REALLY don't want it, nor do I see it happening.
Maybe in another life, brotha.

I never felt anything was sappy in the least. That was one thing that actually impressed me. The goodbye between Jack and Kate, and the final heaven scene all came off as so genuine and natural, and never felt forced or sappy to me.

I remember seeing an interview with the writers saying that they personally would never touch the show again in terms of further episodes or movies or anything, but they then went on to say that it's still Hollywood and somewhere down the line somebody will probably try to dig it up and exploit it for some money.

You're exactly right. But there was definitely a point during this season and particularly the last episode that made me think they were leaving the door open.

As far as the writers... I also remember them saying that the island wasn't hell or purgatory, but it sort of seemed that way to me. LOL! And if it came down to them letting some hack bastardize the show and make a shitty movie or them stepping in reluctantly to do it, I think they'd jump in.

I think there's a difference between leaving futures for the characters in the story, and "leaving the door open" though.
In any good story you're always going to have closure, but also have characters and events that continue off-screen in the imagination. That doesn't really mean it's setting up for a sequel.
That would mean anything short of killing off every character is leaving the door open.

I don't feel like it leaves the door open any more than Return of the King, or Return of the Jedi, or any other final chapter to big pop mythology.

True. I don't want it to happen, but if we're talking about a hypothetical opening to continue... Walt's character has a connection to the island and major players which creates an opening for an intro. The last thing we had of him was John telling Ben the only way he'd participate in his scheme was if Walt was spared. Not to mention his father is "trapped" on the island for his sins.

As far as characters outside of Jack and Kates stories drawing and creating interest in a future show, the beauty of Lost was that minor, seemingly peripheral characters were able to develop into more. During the first season, Jack and Kate certainly carried it in my opinion, but at certain points from season 2 on, the stories and development of Hurley, Sawyer, Juliet, Ben, Eko, Jin and Sun, Witmore all carried and intrigued me more than Jack.

I have no doubt that if the show was revisited (God forbid, knock on wood) people would watch because of the intrigue that the backstory of these new characters along with their connection to the old ones. Again Walt could be a great focal points for flash backs to characters like Locke who is buried on the island we assume.

Again let me reiterate, I love the show. I'm kinda in denial that it's over. I'm probably going to regret saying this, but the scene with Jack and Vincent and later with Jack and his dad almost made me pass some eye water and need some weakness tissues. However, I see where the show could be resurrected down the line and still have a linear connection to the original.

Plus never say never. Sex and the City was huge and they're on their second movie now. Star Trek got prequeled, as did sex and the city. Star Wars was prequeled. Indiana Jones was resurrected and then viciously slaughtered by two greats in Spielberg and Lucas. Aren't there also talks of another great t.v. classic The Sopranos going to film?

I believe it had to do with their true loves. Who they were destined to be with. That's why Jack never had a flashback with Juliet even though they'd been married and saw each other all the time. They weren't meant to be together. Jack and Kate were meant to be together, Sawyer and Juliet were together, Sayid and Shannon, Hurley and Libby, Claire and Charlie.

Edit: Also, Christian said THEY created this place so they could meet up. Not just Jack.

My dreams were 100% Lost-related last night.

I ended up on The Island with Hurley and Ben, along with a new batch of people. Hurley was like "Dude, what are we gonna do" and Ben was like "People are always going to be drawn to The Island, Hugo. What happens next is up to you".

So Hurley set out to rewrite "the rules" of The Island so that these people did not end up like the Dharma Initiative or as "evil" as The Others.

I really, really enjoyed that.

Gave a good sense of closure and left just enough questions unanswered to keep a bit of a sense of mystery. Loved the symmetry with the end and the beginning as well.
