so even in retrospect, you still think the shared church dimension which had no bearing on anything in the series was a proper finale?

not to mention that, in this pseudo-limbo/afterlife that was supposed to be picturesque, people were still getting kidnapped (Sun/Jin)?

yes, because it showed us what truly mattered about the show: the tested relationships, the proven friendships, and everything they went

through together, that brought them to where they are. It showed that in the end, the show wasn't about the mysteries, it's not about the Qs

I'm not talking on a meta level, I'm talking on a basic story level.

or the A's, but the bonds they made and the lasting impressions they have

sure, if that's the theme that they wanted to display in the final season, I'm all for it.

but to just create a religious experience out of nowhere felt like the exact wrong way to do it.

(and this isn't a personal attack, I've actually been thinking about S6 recently and my hatred was rekindled)

haha fair enough. I'll say this: it wasn't they way I would've written it, if it had been my say. However, I respect what they did

lol aight, I get what you mean. It definitely took balls to end it that way, that's for sure.

and I agree that the focus on character was much better than a lame answer-a-thon. But they had to know they'd be alienating a ton of fans.

it's true. Honestly, my biggest problem with the finale was the cluster-fuck that was what went on on the Island at the very end

Jack becoming the next Jacob, and then Hurley, and then a polar bear, and then Jacob, and then a rollerskating pineapple, etc

lol

damn it I wish there really was a rollerskating pineapple

did you two have a nice convo?
