Just Finished Lost and this may be my favourite ending of all time.
So a bit of a context: I was apprehensive when i started the show because i had heard the ending is bad, it doesn’t know what it is etc etc.
Imagine my surprise when a show actually gives its fans the ultimate closure by those final season flash sideways- where they all make up for their mistakes and flaws and loneliness- and all of them got to experience a positive purgatory at the end of which they meet before moving on- with my personal theory being the island making it possible for them- since it is a part of all of them- it was beautiful and made me feel as empty as only masterpieces have before. Haven’t felt that way after a show in a long time.
The ending is misunderstood. That’s my concrete opinion. Most mysteries were answered, maybe a bit too many- but thats fine. Yes some things were retconned, some threads lose, some plotlines dropped, it wasn’t perfect by any means, but my god the way it made me feel was unlike anything else. 2 days since i caught up and i couldn’t stop thinking about it. I feel it has a lot in common with well made shounen anime, the very best of them. Probably the only show out there that does that.
Incredible, unforgettable show.
