JB’s Awakening

2010-05-24-JB's-AwakeningGreetings grieving Fold!

If this comic doesn’t make sense to you… then you don’t watch LOST and are therefore out of the loop.  This doesn’t bother me.  You just missed out.  Big time.

For everyone else… did you like the Finale?

I was disappointed at the end of the Finale. . . the more I&#039ve thought it through, the more I have come to hate it. . . I despise the finale. . .

I&#039ve never liked Lost. I fully agree with whoever it was that stated the reason the show is called "Lost" is because that&#039s what you are if you miss an episode.

In general it has nothing to do with it being a "good" or "bad" show. It&#039s merely a personal preference. Kind of like the reason I couldn&#039t stand Hill Street Blues, NYPD Blue, X-Files, Everybody Loves Raymond, and Seinfeld (among others). It had nothing to do with the caliber of the show, but rather my own disdain for the actors/writing/premise, etc. While I&#039m sure that there are bright spots to the show–just as there were with the other shows I mentioned–on the whole I just find it unappealing. I can&#039t lay a finger on one thing, but the whole show bores me to tears. I even tried to give it a second chance on Hulu, but no such luck. It just ranks with the shows that I&#039m glad to see gone.

I haven't watched the whole finale yet but i suspect I'm going to need a good thrashing about the ears and face as well to understand it. thanks for the confirmation.

I guess it was just disappointing because nothing was surprising. everyone suspected all along that the island was some vague good vs. evil redemption place
and the last episode didn&#039t answer anything that anyone particularly needed answered
I also didn&#039t understand why Jack didn&#039t become a smoke and chains monster, considering the same thing happened to him that happened to the man in black.

I tried to be as un-spoiler like as possible in my comment. sorry for what I did give away.

obviously it had something to do with the afterlife or it wouldn&#039t have a light on it and people with godlike powers over life and death

Well, I still think the Island was "special" or whatever and had crazy, supernatural or whatever things happening on and to people on it, but I don&#039t think it had anything to do with the afterlife because in the very beginning the producers said that wasn&#039t the case.

Well, now there&#039s where I agree with you. But, in the context of the show, Jack was the "main" character. By not resolving everyone&#039s story, they leave it open to books, video games, fan fiction, comic books, etc. to fill in the gaps. It&#039s actually pretty brilliant when you think about the marketing potential.

Lots of movies and stuff end like this to allow for further story in the minds of viewers/fans/authors/etc. People just want everything to end though.
