Leave your dreams to yourself Pilgrim!
This is a family friendly message board!
Has Desmond made contact with everybody in the flash sideways? That's gotta have something to do with it.
I don't think I would have been annoyed with it if they hadnt lied all season telling us they were going to answer all our questions and then answer practically none of them.
Like what was so bad about the smoke monster getting off the island? I mean they seemed to imply that he was pure evil and then end it showing he was just a man. I mean what would have been so darn bad about him leaving? And what the heck was his name?
And what were the rules that Jacob set up? Why did he try to keep him on the island?
When did they die? was it the original plane crash that killed them or did they actually go through everything on the island?
What the heck happened to the people on the plane? What did Hurley do? What the heck was the point of the side view that did nothing but say everyone was dead? I mean seriously, thats the best you could come up with?
This is currently going about FB, supposedly from Jack Shephard's site:
A Letter from Jack Shephard
On his facebook....
Let's put one thing to rest, the Island was NOT purgatory, nor was it HELL. Everything that happened, happened. The Island was real, Jacob was real, Smokey was real, Flight 815 was real and all of our favorite characters and their deaths were REAL.
The sideways world was their afterlife - it was not immediate nor was it far in the future, there is no time or time-lines in the afterlife. Because of their connections in life and on the Island, they all made the sideways world together as a place to find each other when they all eventually passed on. They all wanted to be together in the end, it was the power of their love for each other.
Just like Christian Shephard said to Jack, "some of them died before you and some long after you". It's the place you go when you leave this world and pass to the next.
In no way does it mean that the Island and their lives weren't real. Oceanic Flight 815 crashed on September 22, 2004 and they lived there for 108 days before the Oceanic Six left the Island for three years. The rest stayed on the Island as it shifted through time and we saw the Dharma Initiative and how our people caused 'The Incident'.
The Incident only served to put the time-lines back in place and put our people back in 2007 where they needed to be to fulfill their destinies. When Juliet died and said "it worked", this only served as an introduction into the sideways world, the afterlife. It was an easy way to slide us into the new story telling feature this season.
Jack became the new 'Jacob', but only for a short time, because he knew it was his destiny to save the Island. Hurley became the new 'Jacob' and Ben became the new 'Richard' for the long term. Hurley was innocent and pure, just as Jacob once was.
To clear up a few loose ends. Ben did not go into the church because he was not truly connected to any of the people inside and was not yet ready to move on. The people inside all had lasting connections throughout their lives and a few of them had life altering love that connected them, such as Desmond and Penny.
David, Jack's son, was not real. Just as Locke told him from the hospital bed, "you don't have a son Jack". This was something that Jack's mind created because it seemed right and he had not yet let go. Kate ultimately helped him to let go by taking him to the church, Christian finished the job.
They did not all die at once and their lives on the Island mattered as much as anything else, what happened - happened. They all died at different times and all met there at the same time, because there is no "now" in the sideways world, in the afterlife.
You will also notice that not everyone from our past was there, some were ready and some were not. Some betrayed their connections and some never felt anything for anyone on the Island.
I hope this serves to help you better understand what the ending meant and how it was meant to be portrayed. Please feel free to comment and ask questions and I, we, will do the best to answer them.
Thanks for all the memories and thanks for being the loyal fans that you have always been.
~ Jack
Correct me if I'm wrong:
That's the thing one has to realize, there is no set in stone date for when they all arrived at the church. Could of been three years after 2007 or a hundred.
Sort of reminds me of the ending of Six Feet Under, except we don't see all the deaths but instead see them all going "home" together.
Just a thought.
