But, I think you misunderstand... Zalis Send a noteboard - 24/05/2010 04:46:41 PM
I don't think the island was purgatory. It happened. (which leaves more unanswered Island-based questions)

The sideways flashes were a lot closer to purgatory.

Though, upon watching the Kimmel "Aloha to LOST," I see how people could also take the Island/Purgatory/Test view. (writer denial aside) I still prefer to think the Islands events were real, though much their own test, and that the Sideways stuff was afterlife.
The sword might be grateful to the forge fire, but never fond of it.

What a great ending! (LOST) *spoilers of course* GateKeeper - 24/05/2010 04:30:08 AM 2645 Views
I loved it until the last ten minutes, which I will try to forget. *NM* Deadsy - 24/05/2010 04:31:53 AM 768 Views
It's true the 2 hr lead in was more powerful and compelling... TaskmasterJack - 24/05/2010 04:36:28 AM 1525 Views
It had to be resolved. I just don't like the answer. *NM* Deadsy - 24/05/2010 04:56:01 AM 779 Views
What did you think/hope the side-universe was? *NM* trzaska2000 - 24/05/2010 05:01:20 AM 738 Views
I personally cared a lot less about the Sideways universe than the unanswered questions *NM* Arok Manok - 26/05/2010 07:19:57 PM 796 Views
Would somebody please explain the ending to me..... trzaska2000 - 24/05/2010 04:37:36 AM 1313 Views
Assuming that the main subject is already a spoiler alert...it's everyone's afterlife. Tom - 24/05/2010 04:58:27 AM 1627 Views

How far did you get into Season 3? Deadsy - 24/05/2010 06:37:29 AM 1448 Views
Not very far. Nate - 24/05/2010 06:44:01 AM 1319 Views
Season 3 was really bad for the first 6-7 episodes, but starting with the Desmond Episode... MightyYT - 24/05/2010 07:12:56 AM 1266 Views
Apart from the Jack's Tattoo episode (9 or 10?) which is the worst episode of the whole series. Werthead - 24/05/2010 11:06:35 AM 1352 Views
I think Bai Ling knows some ancient oriental sex technique she uses when she guest stars Cannoli - 24/05/2010 06:43:10 PM 1519 Views
I did the same, but my cousin convinced me to start watching again. It gets way better Cannoli - 24/05/2010 02:51:08 PM 1457 Views

Re: I think Eloise was probably "real" as well DomA - 25/05/2010 12:03:02 PM 1385 Views

Gotta agree with you here. This ending has all the flaws of "It was just a dream" plus some. Burr - 27/05/2010 04:53:15 AM 1317 Views
Do you hate everything? Kuke - 29/05/2010 01:11:05 AM 1203 Views
