Are you kidding I love endings that involve god the bible etc

[Pentegarn]

Since I never watched a single episode, I am a bit confused. Was the ending really dumb or something? Was Twisted Toyfare Theater right? Did Ultraman show up, grow giant, and carry Spiderman, Professor X, and a few others off the island?

:blah

I never watched even a little bit of one episode, right through to the finale. Like pitching a perfect game, it was.

EDIT: Having Ultraman show up would have been way cool, though. :(

[Esuohlim]

It turns out it was a sled :eek

[The Leader]

:lol

[Pentegarn]

I agree with The Leader

:lol

[darkvare]

pardon my ignorace what's a sled?

[Pentegarn]

A sled is a toy you sit on and ride down hills in the snow.

The joke itself was referring to a well known classic movie ending (name omitted to avoid spoilerage)

Wait so how did it work? Because I think all shows should do the Bob Newheart Ending

Imagine Matlock suddenly waking up in Mayberry and telling Barney "I had a dream I was a hotshot lawyer in Atlanta"

Or Captain Archer about to go down with his ship and all of the sudden Dean Stockwell steps through a portal to tell him why Ziggy (or whatever that computer was called) sent him to that time

Or on the last episode of How I Met Your Mother, Neil Patrick Harris goes home and types something insightful on his computer

Or In the Heat of the Night, Carol O' Conner wakes up in an easy chair and Jean Stapleton says, "Archie, wake up" to which he replies, "stifle it dingbat"

I could do those all day :lol

[MarioRPG]

Oh cmon, the Sayid ending was pretty good. But yeah, the third's set up was great.

[10,000 Volt Ghost]

:lol the sayid one was good.


I'll stay tuned for the newhart endings pent. I'm on vacation all week.

[Esuohlim]

Or on the last episode of How I Met Your Mother, Neil Patrick Harris goes home and types something insightful on his computer

This actually happened at the end of one of the episodes, complete with Doogie music :eek

[Kitsa]

I thought the ending of 24 was pretty damn stupid as well.

[Pentegarn]

This actually happened at the end of one of the episodes, complete with Doogie music :eek

I bet it was NPH's idea too, he is actually a pretty funny dude

[Sam]

HE'S PRETTY FUNNY.

FOR A QUEER.

[MarioRPG]

QUEERS ARE ALWAYS FUNNY.

AND THEN YOU HIT THEM.

[whoreable]

i never really liked the series but watch the whole thing(i hate myself). I did not like the ending sorry!

It seems like the alternate world thing that was really the focus of the ending was just written in the last season. Actaully thinking about it, the whole ending didnt really build much on the previous 5 seasons. Seems like someone did just write it all during the last season. maybe im just dumb though

[Esuohlim]

It turns out the show was about the characters and not the island :eek

The moral is that the connections you make with people during life are the most important thing :eek

Shit was gay >:

Also in the end even the all-knowing island entities were wrong and didn't know shit about the island, which is just a clever way around actually explaining anything

[10,000 Volt Ghost]

That's how I felt about it milhouse. About the not explaining thing.

[Pentegarn]

I didn't watch it (as I mentioned earlier :yayredundancy)

But as the last season was winding down, and I heard all the excited talk, I thought to myself, "There is no way this can possibly live up to all the expectations people have for it."

[Sam]

MY FAVORITE CHARACTER IN LOST IS ALDO.

[kahljorn]

IS THAT THE GUY THAT BLEW HIMSELF UP?

[Dimnos]

He is the guy who came out ahead because he cut his losses and quit watching after season two.

[Esuohlim]

ALDO IS THE GUY WHO BANGED EVERYONE'S MOM

[Sam]

ALDO IS A SERIAL KILLER.

[Esuohlim]

ALDO'S BANGING THE WAITRESS

[kahljorn]

that shows way too complicated

[bigtimecow]

it just seems like bullshit to me

earlier in season 6, the episode that was ben centric, showed him talking to his dad in the flash sideways and his dad mentions "good thing we left that island when we did... blah blah blah..." this implies that in this timeline the bomb in 1977 blew up and caused this alternate reality. also, the island in the first episode is underwater, also implying that the bomb worked and destroyed it. the reason why i'm pissed is because there is a difference between a plot twist and lying to your audience, a line which i don't think the lost writers understand

using somewhat ambiguous plot elements to move the story in one direction and then twist it for a surprise to your audience is fine, and also letting things unfold naturally via the characters or the story to have the same effect is also fine. but what they did here was heavy hand us information that was leading us down the wrong path. it's like the difference between the mysteries of the island and the mysteries of the flash sideways. the island had secrets and the people on it had secrets and they all kept it from us (the audience) because they didn't want other characters to know certain things at certain times etc. see, now that is the characters hiding things and that is totally fine. here, the writers have hidden things from us, and actually all of the characters do not know. yes they eventually "wake up" or whatever and realize but the audience is supposed to do that, not the entire fucking cast

[Esuohlim]

The bomb was a red herring. It caused the incident they were trying to prevent, so there was never ever a split in the timeline. The underwater island was a symbol to show that it was inconsequential to getting everyone together in the end during the whole bullshit purgatory epilogue.

Everything make sense when the flash-sideways is perceived as completely fake, even the cheesy stuff like Sawyer and Miles being partners-in-crime, but that still doesn't mean it wasn't completely stupid

[Dimnos]

I bet if you dropped a bunch of acid it would all become clear as day.

[Pentegarn]

I stopped watching Lost in Season 2 when it became clear to me that the writers had no fucking clue where the story was supposed to be going.

And it turns out that I was right. :)

[Esuohlim]

It was wrapped up pretty nicely, for the most part. It was the last seven minutes or so that was terrible as hell for people like me who think that believing in God and an afterlife is the gayest thing ever

[Dimnos]

So what is the deal? Can you spill it in one sentence?

[Tadao]

Only if you talk really dirty.

[10,000 Volt Ghost]

I liked how they showed they supported all religions with the pane glass in the church. I don't remember if they left a blank pane though.

[Dimnos]

What? They are Baha'i or something?

[bigtimecow]

I stopped watching Lost in Season 2 when it became clear to me that the writers had no fucking clue where the story was supposed to be going.

And it turns out that I was right. :)

i hate this fucking argument. do you honestly think that when ANY television show is being written they already know EXACTLY where the story is going? and people always say shit like "they are clearly making this up as they go along." really? NO FUCKING SHIT, THAT'S HOW WRITING WORKS YOU IDIOT

[Dimnos]

I would still think they have a general idea of where they want to take the show. What direction they want to move in.

[Tadao]

Lost is like a pretentious hipster. They act like they know what happened in the past, pretend they know what he future holds for us, while stealing your money in the present.

You should all remember the day the ripped you off.

[10,000 Volt Ghost]

I'd like to read a compendium made by the creators.

[kahljorn]

i think pretty much what they thought the entire time was, "LETS TOTALLY FAKE THEM OUT" then at the end they were like, "WTF DO WE DO NOW?"

[kahljorn]

that sounds fucking stupid. in fact didn't they just rip off alladin and turn it backwards?

My money is on Cash, he fell burning into a ring of fire and lived to sing about it

[Dimnos]

If Cash were alive he would probably just put a cigarette out on the pretty boys face and walk off. :\
