Seems that way. We were led to believe Alt. Verse was running simultaneously as Island Verse, when it actually takes place afterward. So real life ended with Jack dying and Hurley and Ben taking over Island duties Or something. I don't fucking know. |

Ok I think I was on.
jack saved the island, life goes on for those who escaped. Hurley is the new jacob and ben was his aid. They all die at some point, some during the show, some after. The sideways is the afterlife or some form of purgatory until you are aready to move on. They all came together in the afterlife as it was their most important time together or some shit. That is why hurley says "you would a good number two" to ben. And why kate "missed" jack so much, since she lived a full life after he died |

I took it to mean that when you die in the Island timeline, you merge with alternate/heaven timeline. Or something Either way, pretty horrible.
I guess the writers/producers were right when they said the *island* wasn't purgatory/heaven. |

They werent ready
![]() So I am totally fine in a sense with the Altverse Purgatory. But why did jack have a kid in it? And where did he go? Now his parents are both moving to heaven/hell. Notice the window in the church? All faiths were in it |

My review of Lost:
Lost is kind of like the Aristocrats joke, starts of strong then slowly becomes less and less interesting. Then you get to the punchline and realize how that's not the joke, but the rest of it was. |

I really loved it. I knew a lot of people would bitch no matter what so I started browsing twitter after the end and sure enough it's there. But where normally I would think "wow, you people are retarded," tonight I just felt really bad that all those people didn't get what I got out of it.

Also, whoever suggested having Vincent come in and lay next to Jack at the end deserves some sort of reward.

I was hoping Eko would be the priest in the church, but it didn't happen. I understand Walt not being there...he never expressed any interest in returning to the Island. But Walt and Michael should probably have been there anyway.

Regardless, I thought it was a fitting end. I'm glad I've watched it all in six months instead of waiting around for six years though. The suspense would have been a bit much for me.

My thoughts:
- The Island is exactly what Jacob told Richard it was. Complete with cork holding back hell. It has existed for a long long time. Before anything we have seen. That's where all the other skeletons in the hole of light came from (previous Jacobs trying to see what is down there). That's where some of the statues, and whatnot came from. What we are seeing in the series is just a particular period in the history of The Island, telling the stories of this set of characters (mainly Jack). - Smoke Monster was released when Jacob committed an act of murderous hate, freeing this monster (possibly a demon from hell?) - The Island has a way of making people go where they need to be in life. The finale sees it bring what Jacob started to a close as Desmond, imbued with the ability to survive the electromagnetism pulls the cork, which makes Smokey corporeal and able to be killed. - Jack, meanwhile, has gone on an epic character journey and accepted his role on The Island, sacrificing himself to restore the natural balance. - Representing this new age of balance is the partnership of Hurley, who is probably the most innocent character on the show, and Ben, the most morally ambiguous. - The Alt-Verse is pretty self-explanatory as purgatory. Where they all go after they die (whether it be in earlier seasons, or years down the line). Characters who aren't ready to go, like Anna-Lucia, Eko, and Michael, don't go with. Walt wasn't there because he was a child when all this happened, so there are probably more important people in his life to be together with when he goes to heaven. - And so, the period in Island history ends as it began, with Jack in the bamboo field, closeup on the eye, this time closing. FINAL VERDICT: I loved it. Helped to distill my thoughts down into what may be my first lengthy serious TPWW post ever. Last edited by Lock Jaw; 05-24-2010 at 12:28 AM. |

Also, the whole Juliet saying "it worked" thing was her confusing purgatory for it working. Yeah.

Yup, makes sense since Miles talked to dead Juliet at that point and Desmond (The Constant between real world and Purgatory) said that nothing mattered anymore since he was getting them all together in the alt-world.

Forgot about that Jimmy Kimmel thing. I'll have to download that show tomorrow, or watch it online or something.
Also, I have totally been listening to the Lost Soundtrack on youtube ever since the show ended. |

In addition, yeah, Demond I think got a real glimpse behind the workings of the universe and was used by The Island as its physical conduit to get people where they need to go (causing the plane crash, seeing the future deal, and the purgatory stuff). By the end he wasn't really afraid to die because he knew where he (and everybody) was going, which is why he was so confident and laid back after Widmore zapped him.
