I was a little disappointed, though, that, as I understand it, the sideways world wasn't "real". It was set up to be an alternate reality where the bomb went off and the characters were thus never influenced by the Island, but it turned out just to be their made up little fantasy? Because they needed it? OK, maybe they wanted to find each other again in death, but why would they find each other in a way that makes it seem like how their lives might have been if the bomb had gone off?<br /><br />So, really, Juliet was wrong when she told Sawyer "It worked"? It didn't actually work, and all of that bomb stuff (and her death) was for nothing. And the sideways world isn't a sideways world. Just a lie. Don't get me wrong, I still found it profound and beautiful, but it was also somehow dissatisfying.Elenihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07661310499468356602noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-21772340073542599.post-67922209889828425062010-05-24T16:39:58.185-07:002010-05-24T16:39:58.185-07:00Jan, I think "they died when they died" ...Jan, I think "they died when they died" suggests that despite the fact that they didn't all die at the same time or in the same place, because their time together was the most important of their lives they were reunited in the afterlife (the sideways universe). Hence, how Ben and Hugo had a shared history. "You were a great #2." They may have acted as the guardians of the island for years, but all we know is that in death they all found each other again. <br /><br />It took me a sleepless night and a thoughtful day to realize that I did love it. I just wasn't ready to let go :)Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06496951285566184807noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-21772340073542599.post-4424885737553245612010-05-24T15:24:01.606-07:002010-05-24T15:24:01.606-07:001.

2. I t...1. Does Lapidis' life jacket say 4DULT?<br />2. I totally called that shiz. Only you and my father know this.<br />3. Totally agree about overall opinions. All we can do is feel sorry for people who didn't find what they were looking for in the series, because I think it's pretty well contained.Da7ehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17999558543096035810noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-21772340073542599.post-4594355099651794452010-05-24T15:22:52.475-07:002010-05-24T15:22:52.475-07:00can someone please give me their interpretation of...can someone please give me their interpretation of "they died when the died"? so when did kate, sawyer, jin, jack die? i would like to think that they died when juliet hit the bomb last season. and that this last season was just jack's journey to the light. <br /><br />ahhck! if i think about it too much, ill lose my sanity. i already didn't sleep well last night....<br /><br />anyways, hope to read your take!jenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13992488905248968220noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-21772340073542599.post-89319649549697509182010-05-24T13:41:27.258-07:002010-05-24T13:41:27.258-07:00Completely agree with you. I think the first time...Completely agree with you. I think the first time I cried was Hurley's look of absolute delight at seeing Charlie again. And then when Charlie saw Claire. And when Sawyer and Juliet remembered each other. And when Hurley asked Ben to help him.<br /><br />God that was good. Without a doubt the best show of the decade.wickedgoddesshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12187612325213872810noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-21772340073542599.post-81768321540417866152010-05-24T13:36:29.464-07:002010-05-24T13:36:29.464-07:00I too only joined Lost late, towards the beginning...I too only joined Lost late, towards the beginning of season 4, and all of this broke my heart. I don't care about the questions that aren't answered: as you said, it's all about the character resolutions.<br /><br />I think what was most beautiful was the whole concept of the flash-sideways universe: if you've ever "lost" (hah!) someone close to you, especially recently, that's going to break your heart, but it'll also have you wishing that the real thing is just like that.burnallzombieshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14894545282773419764noreply@blogger.com
