Yeah I like to think that Hurley and Ben got the natives who survived and who wanted to leave (like the kids) back home. I can see Rose, Bernard and Vincent moving into Jacob's old digs in the statue and Hurley, Ben and any remaining natives moving into the Temple to take care of the holy hot tub. I hoped they figured out what the role of the island was suppose to be. Mother was a recluse and Jacob and Smoky spent all their island time caught up in their game. What was the guardian of the island suppose to do? Just keep people away from the power at the center?

If you haven't already watched the whole ep over and over on Hulu, ABC is rerunning it again tonight. Of course, it's running from 8 to 10:05, so they're probably cutting a lot of small moments and scenes. That's a nice way to go for what's likely to be ABC's last airing of Lost.

yeah, Jo, me neither.
I downloaded the music of the last 7 minutes of `The End`, which accompanies the scene in church and Jack`s death, and I started listening to it. It makes me just cry my eyes out.

I imagine it should give some comfort to Jack haters - although many seemed to have changed their tune on him after the finale - that the whole point of the ending, and of much of the series, was to eventually kill him. Remember, they wanted him dead in the first draft of the pilot, so it seems they spent six years working to finally get their wish - especially since they've said for years that they knew the final Lost image.

I kind of agree with this video.
The finale was a little bit disappointing to me! I loved the whole season, one of the best on my opinion..until it came to the final scene! I couldnt believe that this is it.

I'm still going through this entire conversation and drafting my responses, but I have to jump in at this point and say this: calling the sideways world "purgatory" is driving me mad!!! It isn't a purgatory; purgatory is a place of punishment, and that's not what we saw in the sideways world. What we saw was a limbo, as I've written elsewhere, "a world between worlds, an antechamber to the afterlife." Purgatory is a (now defunct) Christian concept, but the ending did not give us a purely Christian afterlife - it is an afterlife intended for all faiths. The writers created their own afterlife conception that should be regarded as distinct from the Christian purgatory. It's more of a holding tank for these connected souls to awaken and find each other again. Christian terminology simply does not apply to this concept, and especially the torments (because it IS a place of torment) of purgatory. There. Said it. Feel better now!! More responses to come... Yes! The sideways world was not Purgatory in any way. This is the definition. "All who die in God's grace and friendship, but still imperfectly purified, are indeed assured of their eternal salvation; but after death they undergo purification, so as to achieve the holiness necessary to enter the joy of heaven ... The Church gives the name Purgatory to this final purification of the elect, which is entirely different from the punishment of the damned." Catholic Catechism 1030-1031 However, as far as I know Purgatory is not a Christian concept, it is a Catholic. And it is not defunct. Purgatory is a current doctrine. I know this because I'm a religious ed teacher and I taught my class about Purgatory just few weeks before the finale aired. |
