Lost Series Finale: Sound Off Now!
The end has come.
After six incredible, exhilirating, ambitious seasons, Lost concluded its iconic run tonight.
It was a two-and-a-half episode chock full of enlightenment, resolutions and action - and we're still trying to wrap our minds around it all.
As I work on my detailed recap and review of the series finale, I want to know your instant reaction to the show: WHAT DID YOU THINK OF THE FINALE?

SUPER LET DOWN !! Even after 2 years! If the writers claimed it was a show about characters, then THEY forgot the main one.... THE ISLAND..!!
1) What was The Island's purpose ??
2) How did Jacob's mother kill all those people? Was she also a Smoke Monster?
3) Was Jacob the mean guy in not
permitting his brother to leave The
Island ?
4) Where did Jacob & MIB go to after
death ??
The writers should have focused on The Island's purpose for existence. Then explain each human character's relationship to The Island.

One of LOST's themes was people learning how to get along. So it's ironic that the finale has fans sniping at each other. If they had wanted to, the producers could have come up with something to (pretty much) satisfy everyone. Sadly, they didn't.

The LOST series finale spent over two hours discharging six years of accumulated claptrap and plot waste into the Pacific garbage slick before segueing to a 15-minute clip of the tearful cast party in LA’s universal church of schlock. I am as disappointed as a fan can get.

Question: "What was the story of Jacob and Esau?"
Answer: Jacob and Esau were the sons of Isaac and Rebekah and the first twins mentioned in the Bible. Even before they were born, they were struggling together in the womb of their mother. Their prenatal striving foreshadowed later conflict (Genesis 25:21-26).
The twins grew up very different. Jacob was “a quiet man, staying among the tents” and his mother’s favorite. Esau was “a skillful hunter, a man of the open country” and his father’s favorite. One day, Esau returned from hunting and desired some of the lentil stew that Jacob was cooking. Jacob offered to give his brother some stew in exchange for his birthright—the special honor that Esau possessed as the older son, which gave him the right to a double portion of his father’s inheritance. Esau put his temporary, physical needs over his God-given blessing and sold his birthright to Jacob (Genesis 25:27-34).
When the time came for Isaac to bestow his blessin

Question: "Why did God love Jacob and hate Esau (Malachi 1:3; Romans 9:13)?" Answer: Malachi 1:2-3 declares, “’I have loved you,’” says the LORD. But you ask, 'How have you loved us?' ‘Was not Esau Jacob's brother?’ the LORD says. ‘Yet I have loved Jacob, but Esau I have hated, and I have turned his mountains into a wasteland and left his inheritance to the desert jackals.’” Malachi 1:2-3 is quoted and alluded to in Romans 9:10-13, “Not only that, but Rebekah's children had one and the same father, our father Isaac. Yet, before the twins were born or had done anything good or bad—in order that God's purpose in election might stand: not by works but by him who calls—she was told, ‘The older will serve the younger.’ Just as it is written: ‘Jacob I loved, but Esau I hated.’” Why did God love Jacob and hate Esau? If God is love (1 John 4:8), how could He hate anyone? When studying the Bible, it is critically important to always study the context of a parti

I understand that the sidewards world was them meeting in the afterlife and the island was the real world, but the writers could have just answered the questions which relate to what we have been watching for the passed 6 years, Why did we not even get a name for the MiB when we got a name for jacob and there brothers, even Dave would have done. but nothing, I dont hate the ending but it was a quicky cop out which in my mind could have been done with more though relating to the bulk of what we have watched rather than ending only answering the sidewards world. There is still room for a lost aftermath which i think should be done to quiet the lost fans who have put in years. we are owed that much at least, respect to the hurley bird. ps. WTF was the hurley bird. JAH

Right this is very simple:
They all Died together so they have to move on together is the main point.
•The start of lost showed us flash backs to the characters lives and the baggage they had
•The rest of lost showed us them working though the skeletons in the closet and becoming happy in them selfs in away they as a group needed to do it
•Last episode they all come to terms with there daemons and as a group they can continue to heaven.

One heck of a crash ending for such a good series. What a shame, but I guess the writers themselves became lost in all of their injected twists and turns over the years.

the writers of lost should be shot and not allowed to do any shows. they are stupid with no ideas in their pea brains. what a let down the finale was like an episode of dynasty in 80's. damon the geek and carlton the shit, kill ur self, as writers you should exceed in your work with people praising you for your creativeness, but you gave us a pile of krap. you guys are the worst writer ever,you have never had any ideas about how the show is going to end just mumbo jumbo. are you high on drugs or just plain retards you didnot explain nothing, feel sorry for the fans who say it was a good ending, they are just wierdos like the writers. damon and carlton you have let viewers down son dont put a smile in your ugly faces and retire.
