Desmond and Penny were great. Probably my fave couple from a tv show or movie or anything.. Don't really watch romantic stuff though.
Liked Jin and Sun aswell. And Rose and Bernard. |

And in the end, they all died and went to heaven. The series finale of Lost brought us both back to the beginning and to the threshold of eternity. In one world, Armageddon was averted. In another world, we got the Rapture. The closing moments aspired to a twist ending: Sidewaysabad, a flawed matrix of good-enough contentment, wasn't an alternate reality at all but a psycho-spiritual virtual reality, a vast active living intelligence system (to borrow a phrase from Philip K. Dick's VALIS) created by the collective yearning of the castaways, an ethereal transfer station located at an unspecified junction between life and afterlife. All along, the Sideways characters have been shells, waiting for someone to ignite their soul's pilot light. And on the Pentecost Sunday, it was total ''FLAME ON!'' I thought ''The End'' was a fantastic though not flawless fantasy that stirred more of my emotions than my mind, and I was satisfied with that. The Jin-Sun awakening. The Sawyer-Juliet reunion. The John Locke resurrection. The preservation of The Island and the promise that it lives in our imaginations under the stewardship of big-hearted Hurley and his humble Number 2, Benjamin Linus. Under their regime, a new era of the soul awaits mankind, which I think was one of the big points of it all: Let us rediscover and reinvent spirituality for a new generation that finds it's both too easy to fall for dubious ideas and too hard to believe in anything. I loved the opening montage, the crosscutting between the Island and Sideways characters as they awaited destiny. And I thought the final 10 minutes — which toggled between Island Jack's last moments of life with Sideways Jack's launch into the afterlife aboard The Ark of the Castaway Covenant — were pretty close to perfect. The final episode was a very personal work of its writers, Damon Lindelof and Carlton Cuse. I am grateful for the story they chose to give us.
In a way, this really was the zombie season of Lost after all, wasn't? The Sideways world was a Bardo, a kind of Tibetan Book of the Dead intermediate state. It was... Purgatory theory come true! All pause for laughter — and all pause to appreciate the point Lost hammered home all episode long. The Island world was real. Everything that happened on that damn rock mattered. We worried at the beginning of the season that five years of investment would be squandered by a time reboot. Nope. We worried the messy redemption struggles of each soul would be cheapened by Jughead's clean and easy atomic whiteout. Nope. ''Whatever happened, happened,'' Jack told Desmond, admonishing the idealistic Scot for his wanting cheap, painless shortcuts to salvation. Still, what did the Sideways world mean? And was it truly dramatically necessary to Lost? Some thoughts to come. NEXT: Man of finale, man of faith? Nice Read, from Entertainment Weekly. |

Couples on LOST.. hmm I didn't really care for that too much. But yeah Hurley and Libby was cool cause that would never happen in real life. and Jin and Sun was alright too, specially cause they had such an epic death. The others, not too fussed about. ahh actually, Claire and Charlie with the peanut butter was sort of endearing tbh. |
The fact that the show is over, yet there is still loads to talks about, proves the quality of it. LOST is brilliant. Fact.
|
Have saw it twice so far, will be watching it on friday when it's on Sky One again aswell.

Amazing news:
One more reason to love Michael Emerson: He just spilled the goods on an amazing surprise for any Lost fan planning to buy the final, sixth-season DVD. (And trust me, now all of you will be buying it.) There will be more Lost. There is more to the story, and we will get to see it! Praise Jacob! Or should we say...Hurley?! "For those people that want to pony up and buy the complete Lost series, there is a bonus feature," Michael just told our Kevin Pereira of Attack of the Show!, which airs tonight at 7 on E!'s brother network G4. "Which is um, you could call it an epilogue. A lost scene. It's a lot; it's 12 or 14 minutes that opens a window onto that gap of unknown time between Hurley (Jorge Garcia) becoming number one and the end of the series." Michael says this extra footage is not the premise for a spinoff. "It's self-contained. Although, it's a rich period in the show's mythology that ‘s never been explored, so who knows what will come of it." That said, as I reported earlier, we'll find out what happens to Walt on the DVD as well. And so for the last time ever (sniff!), I think I get to say, Lost spoiler alert! Whatcha wanna bet that during Hurley and Ben's adventures on the island, they run into Walt a few years into the future, when he's oh, 18 and looking just as Malcolm David Kelley looks now? Oh, genius show, I love you. Why must you make it so hard to let go? Just as we're trying to say good-bye, you dangle this most excellent carrot! See all you fellow fans in the overnight campout line for the Lost season-six DVD. Read more: http://uk.eonline.com/uberblog/watch...#ixzz0p5PLHUER :D |
ah that's great news, David. Can't wait to buy it now! :D

Wow! I need to get that. A spin off show with Hurley and Ben would be fantastic too
|
It was more fitting that Jack and Kate got together because of how in love Sawyer seemed to be with Juliet.. I think the chemistry was better between Sawyer and Kate though. But that love triangle should have been solved ages ago and was the most annoying part of the show, i'm glad it didn't get too much attention in the finale.
And I'd laugh if the scene with Walt on the DVD just brings up more questions about him instead of answers, imagine how many people that'd piss off. |

If that happened then they would be together in the ALT, not with Jack and Juliet :p
