Gets mentioned this today in irc.
[18:22:11] @Gets: "attention everyone who watches LOST: GET OFF THE INTERNET NOW. finale spoilers are being spammed by 4chan, trolls. some are also coming to irc and spoiling."
No idea where he picked the quote up from, but yeah. Apparently the ending got leaked somewhere or something. blah blah. So if you care about that sort of thing, be warned. Advert thine eyes from Lost related comments and whatnot for awhile.

No Nerf, but I put a link to this very thread and I said that you all can guarantee for my purity. I even mentioned your case, and see if they can take a look at your lawn from a Michigan perspective.

I'm not quite sure what the hell I just watched. I do know that it beat out the BSG ending on the WTFometer.

That has got to be the worse piece of shit I've seen in my life. If anyone is wondering if they should ever watch this show, the answer is, "Don't bother". Fuck.  |

Not sure why all the hate, I really liked it. I think some people here wouldn't have been happy with it no matter how they ended it.

I'm going to reserve judgement until I see these three alternate endings that will be on Jimmy Kimmel.

I just don't understand. BSG was more tolerable because it at least gave hints in the last few episodes that it was going to go off on a retarded note. This was actually pretty sane up until the last 5 minutes....

I hope one of them is a comedy ending, where Ben is walking away and suddenly a polar bear jumps out of the bushes and mauls him as the final scene. |

I really liked it.
It was time for the series to end, but I'm still sad to see it go.

Alternate ending #3. Totally would've gone with that.

That would have been awesome. Though I bet at the time most people watching felt pretty cheated. So.... when's the movie coming out for what happened between? |

Well.
Yeah, I dunno.
I still enjoyed the show overall - certainly there was a lot of fun on the journey... the destination, well, not exactly what I was hoping for.
The thing is, they've known for what, the last two years that these were the last two years, right? I was sort of expecting them to build to something that felt a bit more coherent and a bit less tacked on, even if they ended up cheating a bunch to make it fit with the first four years.
Just didn't really hang together in the end and didn't even explain the "it worked" and the "alternate timeline" and such... the island on the bottom of the ocean in the opener to S6.
Ah well. TV.

If you stuck with the show for all six years and thought it was more about the "answers" than the characters, I am shocked.
Mind you, I would have enjoyed some nice coherent wrap-it-all-up answers, but at the end of the day that wasn't what kept me coming back every episode.

I just thought that comment was funny. After watching the ending I thought it was ironic that I would have enjoyed the last episode far more with one less answer given

Interesting thought. It certainly would have been a very different ending without the immediately preceding infodump to tell you what it means... EDIT: also: http://twitpic.com/1qjjtr |

It's weird. It's not like a hated it or felt burnt by it "the last six years has been a waste!" (the Jacob/MIB Origin Story episode probably wins the "WTF, You're kidding?" award for giving a horribly non-satisfying answer to a question). It's just that I feel like maybe they could have done better than the clip-show to remind me that I enjoyed these characters and their adventures.
A lot of the ending worked for me -- I liked Jack taking Jacob's role temporarily and finally ending up where he began. Hurley as the guardian of the island and Ben finally finding his purpose as Hurley's "Richard". The MIB defeated without us ever knowing if the world really would end (or maybe just the island). I mean think about that... a bunch of people were convinced that somehow the world would be destroyed if the MIB escaped, but really? really? None of those people were people who I believed actually *knew* anything (or that I would even trust to be truthful if they knew). It seems like Unlocke could only find freedom by becoming mortal, in which case he just doesn't seem like that big a threat to the world. And you know, I'm fine with there being no answer to that.
