| Lost Finale Was Horrible
So here are some recent digs. To elaborate, the series finale only provided closure for a plot line that was introduced this season. People keep saying that the "sideways" plot was explained, which it was... but it has practically nothing to do with the rest of the show. It isn't that the ending was confusing, it makes perfect sense, but still has nothing to do with almost every other plot element introduced since day one. I think they expected that if the last season wrapped up a few loose ends and the finale was emotional enough, people would get overwhelmed into accepting a really generic ending. You know, you could end almost ANY show the way they ended Lost. Because the ending was, in all actuality, irrelevant to every character, back story, mystery, revelation... See More, and cliffhanger ever introduced by the rest of the series OTHER than the "flash sideways" introduced in season 6. You could have literally played that game during the series finale of Dawson's Creek if you really wanted to. It's like, "Hey, how do we end one of the most obsessed over TV shows of all time without having to end it or actually explain anything? Oh I know. Introduce another TV show into it during the final season, and end that one instead." | | 1 |  | Mouth Of The Architect

05.24.10 | dude I've never seen that show but i want to get the season. | JizzInMyPants
05.24.10 | rage wit me bro | DoubtGin
05.24.10 | srsly, just stick to one list...
its just a fukin show.. no need to have 5 lists cuz of the finale.. the first list has decent discussions in it at least. | porch
05.24.10 | ajfkal;hafha | NeutralThunder12
05.24.10 | excellent though unclear finale, we have to answer some questions ourselves. Your digs mostly suck too. | NeutralThunder12
05.24.10 | wow did you really say that the finale didn't relate to any character? Dude, watch again, you dont get it. | NeutralThunder12
05.24.10 | nah bro, Lost is brilliant. | liledman
05.24.10 | yeah i was disappointed too | Sowing
05.24.10 | im glad i didnt waste 6 years watching lost | Zion
05.24.10 | NeutralThunder I'm glad you enjoyed it, I'm not really that bent out of shape over it, just TV show, but if you think that ending was brilliant, you and I just wanted something entirely different out of Lost. No need to tell me I didn't "get it." It was easy to get. I understand exactly what was going on, what the "sideways" universe was, what it was for, and why they needed it to find each other. It wasn't that complicated, my gripe is that it was stupid and largely irrelevant to the first 5 seasons. It's not a matter of not "getting it." | Zion
05.24.10 | DoubtGin, I rarely make lists and regardless of what the title is, it's a list of recent digs. And if you're tired of Lost lists why did you click on mine? | liledman
05.25.10 | zion you hit the nail on the head | Deviant.
05.25.10 | I don't get how it made the previous 5 seasons irrelevant when "on island" it wrapped up everything the show had been building up too since day one, and "off island" it allowed the group too all be together once again, amidst all the sacrifices they had made | Dryden
05.25.10 | this show being discussed is just as boring as the show it self | liledman
05.25.10 | common sense andcas, you dont like lost, dont look at the list. or just troll.
deviant i think it didnt make the other season irrelevant but it kind of placed the characters happy ending in much more of a focus than the end of the islands plot... which was uh, the whole plot of the show. even though the show is basically a character study, characters are nothing without a plot. i think the balance was tilted slightly more in favour of the characters as it just rushed through revealing secrets in the end. | Deviant.
05.25.10 | But seeing as how the resolution of the show was to ultimately ensure the safety and protection of the island, and get off it, I would say that they succeeded in ending the island plot in a more than admirable way. The way they wrapped up the "other stuff/off island timeline" was simply for the fans. Just something nice to show that they would all one day be together again | liledman
05.25.10 | yeah everyone wanted a happy ending, and fair enough.
i still have very mixed feelings about all of it but i think they really did the best they could with the end. closure for characters, couples together, etc, and also at least ending the island saga. the show really had so much build up that in the minds of all fans... its hard to neatly end something so extravagant. | liledman
05.25.10 | i want to check out rosetta, not really fond of intronaut or giant squid. | buckfutter
05.25.10 | The lost writers just made this shit up as they went along. After JJ Abrams left, there wasn't a direction for the show, and it was pretty clear the writers had no clue where it was going. The show was good for 2 seasons, JJ Abrams dropped out of the writing, and the show went to shit. Anyone who watched every episode/season got suckered, and now they are just mad about it. | Zion
05.26.10 | liledman, to be honest I'm not really all that fond of Giant Squid myself, and only recently checked out Intronaut at the request of a friend, I just kind of needed to fill in a couple blank spots on the list and they were both on Translation Loss records with Rosetta, Mouth, etc.. lol. Giant Squid's lead vocalist bugs me. I want to like it but it's not working out. | oltnabrick
04.21.13 | o man nice list |
