Holy crap! Where is that commercial from? That is so awesome.

Jimmy Kimmel.

 

[GrueSam]

I'm not gonna get into my thoughts about this epi nor where I think/hope Lost is going.

But I will say that when they showed the "Tunnel of Light" I felt like I was watching Legend and was expecting a unicorn and Tom Cruise to go running through!

I've held off too, wanting to think about it for a couple of days... here are my thoughts. I liked the episode, but I feel betrayed! We didn't really get any answers (except for Adam and Eve), we just traded for new questions!

"Who are Jacob and MiB?" for "Who is the woman?"

"How did they get on the island?" for "How did she get on the island?"

"What is Jacob guarding?" for "What was the woman guarding?"

etc, etc, etc


Don't get me wrong... we got answers to a few "specific details", but the big questions just got traded and I feel like that is a cop-out. But of course... for every question that is answered, there will just be more questions... I guess.

 

[pixletwin]

If you recall that is exactly what Fake Mom said. If they answer all your questions there will just be more, so be quiet.

"Who is the woman?"

"How did she get on the island?"

"What was the woman guarding?"

Other than the island caretaker that preceded Jacob and that she is protecting a great power that binds together all life in this world, I don't need nor do I want any more clarification than that. The bits we saw aside, her history likely has no real connection to the MiB, Jacob, 815ers tale the writers are focusing on. Plus, I think it's a stronger story with the Island origins remaining a mystery and wonder.

It will all end with a yin/yang thing anyway, the rest is just tertiary.

I couldn't stop thinking about the West Wing.

Yup.
Midichlorians, anyone?

etc, etc, etc

But the writers addressed this in the opening dialogue of the episode. The island mother told the real mother, "for every question I answer you are just going to have more questions... so stop asking questions." This line made me smile... I felt that the writers were trying to say that some things we are just going to have to accept.
