I feel so cheated.
Yh the ending sucked however the story up until Season 6 is great:)
I just wish some of the answers were explicilty stated in the show such as the death of pregnant woman etc. Although you can figure out why I would have liked some character to explicitly spell it out for confirmation.
Love Lost, my favourite tv show of all time. Such fantastic writing and utterly brilliant characters
Hoping to get S6 for Christmas to complete my collection.
Up until then it was brilliant but frustrating
I re-watched a few seasons and I think season 1 has Locke and Walt playing the game with the black and white pieces - very clever once we see how that relates to Jacob and Man-In-Black!
its too fresh in my mind right now
I agree, I will wait for the complete box set to come down in price, maybe when the complete blu ray box set is under £100 I will consider it, until then, I can wait
Also, I too felt cheated by the end:mad:
So much was left open to interpretation, why didn't Richard age, where did the light come from, why were Jacob and MIB special, and what was MIB name...
What was the light, why could the island move..
We know why richard did not age, same reason as Jacob as jacob gave him the drink in the richard centered episode. But I think once Jacob died richard started to age.
But your right, many questions unanswered
IMO if every question is answered then it's almost like the audience are being spoon fed. Losties are still discussing what certain things represented and the main character stories were resolved. Michael Emerson who played Ben says it's like the end of a good book and I agree.
The light was in the heart of the island. The laws of time & space did not apply to the after life/the light, and by extension, the light's immediate surroundings, i.e. the islands.
We may have had plenty answers as you put it but so many questions didn't get answered.
I have been re watching them for the last few weeks.
Am also on season two and watched episode 9 last night which was an Mr. Eko episode.
See my comment about being spoon fed. Thanks
After watching the commentary Damon and Carlton do hint that
1) Mother was smoke monster, which means is she was both black smoke and protector of the island. It was only till her final few days that she gave power to Jacob and then Jacob killed his brother.
2) The chamber with the cork in was built after Jacob sent his brother into that chamber of light. Which then begs another question, why was the cork chamber built in the first place? Damon and Carlton made comments about how the light was dammed up and looked less bright than it did when we saw the cave in Across the Sea. So what the hell was down in that chamber when MIB went down it and got transformed? Easy to say there's a pool of light, but was there? All the stuff was built after he was send down there as hinted by Darlton on season 6 commentary.
Now, if that's true then that means there is no cork when Mother dies. When Flocke 'dies' the cork is out of place. Are we to assume that Flocke isn't actually dead. Well his body his perhaps just like mother, but the smoke itself could still exists and then why didn't it take over Jack when he was in the pool of light before he put the cork back into place.
I also noticed that viewing today, when Jack and Flocke are lowering Desmond down that Flocke's hands are bleeding - which shouldn't happen till the cork is opened and then his 'powers' are gone.
I do feel a bit cheated with Dharma. They were this dominant group on the island, but they seemed to be forgotten once season 5 ended. Would of been nice to give them more of a purpose till the finale.
Also, what's up with young Jacob appearing to Flocke with blood on his hands and then appearing to Hurley towards the end of the season.
Also, what the hell happened to Christian and Yemi's body? Nothing happened to Locke's body once smokey transformed him to look like him.
Also somethign that bugged me is how easy everyone was with Flocke taking over Locke's body and following him. They knew he was the black smoke, but after everything that black smoke has done (killing Pilot, Eko etc) I would of thought they would be cautious.
I loved the ending of Sundown and Flocke stare down with Kate. I hated how in following episodes there was nothing and she was in camp Flocke. They just seemed to follow this guy so easily.
I did see your comment but i didn't agree with it hence why i posted what i did.
The trouble with Season 2 is they had to make changes with certain characters because the actors had to/ wanted to leave.
Play.com are selling seasons 3 & 4 for £5.99 each and season 5 for £9.99 today only if anyone is thinking of taking the plunge!
Yeah that was one of the problems with Walt and co. Plus getting the characters arrive as well!
I loved the ending & was very happy & satisfied with it. Lost will be my all time favourite show....
as for some of the answers to questions on the shiw, they were there, they just didn't answer howd you expect.
1) Richard didn't age because he didn't want to age. (so jacob made him that way) it was only when he realised he wantd to age did he find tht grey hair.
2) Why did the island move? Was it one of jacobs rules???
some questions people want answered are really irrevelent biut i have some key ones like what the hell was jacobs cabin? i always though it was a gateway to him!11
