Re: TV: Lost
In Ben Linus' flash sideways Alex has a Confederate flag on her backpack.
Everything's perfectly all right now. We're fine. We're all fine here, now, thank you. How are you?

Re: TV: Lost
I enjoyed the finale much better this time around. Probably understood what was going on a lot better.
But that island was fucking purgatory.

Re: TV: Lost
I know I'm being manipulated, but the finale (which Hulu has combined into one episode) was an absolute gut punch of all the emotions at once.

Re: TV: Lost
Is there an in continuity reason why Michael and Walt weren't at the church? Are we just to assume that they weren't ready to move on. Nor were any of the 40+ survivors that were not the lead characters? or Danielle, or Alex, or Arzt, or Richard, or Miles ... why didn't anyone wake up Miles?

Re: TV: Lost
For Michael, it's the same reason Ben didn't go inside. Still had shit to deal with / atone for before heading to the final phase of the afterlife.B wrote:Is there an in continuity reason why Michael and Walt weren't at the church?

I believe it was suggested that you're in purgatory with those you were closest with or bonded to while living. The others you mention would've had their own groups.
Walt's got his own group of magical bird murderers.

Re: TV: Lost
Imagine if you were heaven bound, but someone you loved had to go to purgatory. Then you're stuck in purgatory working on their shit.
God sucks.

Re: TV: Lost
Ah, so you're saying the flash sideways was the purgatory. I'm not convinced that the island isn't purgatory.

After my week out and about traveling around, I can't tell y'all how fucking excited I am to get back to rewatching LOST. We're about half way through S3. I love this show so much!

I have a visceral reaction to advertising and promotion. There's just something about salesmanship that grates on me on a very base level and I react very negatively towards it. I want those people to suffer and I want their enterprises to fail.
