Gonna end with Jack and Locke sitting on the beach with a cruise ship coming towards the island.

Pretty much what I figured too.

So then is the cruise ship going to crash into something on the way once it gets close to the island? Then people start jumping into rescue boats and head towards the island?

"Fresh meat" for the game between Jack and Locke? :wink1:

That would be a good ending, but I'll be suprised if we actually get that ending. We'll see...

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.

I feel the same after that Jacob/MIB episode. Who created god? The previous god created god. Just very unsatisfying.

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.

Thats too convenient for them IMO. They're sowing the seeds of a grand cop-out with a line like that. I love the show but I don't like that it seems they're going to leave so much open to interpretation. Endings like that kinda make me wonder why I bothered watching any of it.

But that's life. You will never have all the answers so why should absolutely everything be answered on Lost?

pixletwin · May 18, 2010

I am hoping they leave some of the big questions unanswered because that is what will keep coming back to THE ISLAND.

Found this in my kids note book this morning. I had to bring it to work and scan it. heheheh

i'm kind of torn actually...........as much as i like lost, i'm kind of glad it's ending. they could have gotten a few more seasons out of it but i think on a whole people are ready for closure. (though i really feel like not everyone is going to like how that's done)

but i look forward to rewatching the dvds again........ :yess:
