06.11.09 ‘LOST’ ENDING: INCREDIBLY POWERFUL, VERY SAD

lost-matthew-fox

Matthew Fox plays Dr. Jack Shepard on “Lost,” and as the sexiest and most important character (sorry, Sawyer) on the show, he’s the only actor so far to have learned how the series will end at the conclusion of Season 6.  And he makes it sound pretty good:

Fox says Lost creators Damon Lindelof and Carlton Cuse will prove they knew where they were going all along when the show ends in “an incredibly powerful, very sad and beautiful way. I think it is going to be pretty awesome.”

The only castmember to know what that crazy smoke monster is and how the show ends said, “I think it is going to be very satisfying and cathartic and redemptive and beautiful. I’ve talked to Damon pretty extensively and every time I talk to him it’s sort of surprising how moving it is just to talk about it.”

Fox also revealed some details to how Season 6 will transition from Season 5’s confusion to a more linear story arc, but it gets spoiler-y for anyone who hasn’t watched Season 5, so that’s after the jump. 

The sixth season will begin with an examination of what happened after Juliet seemingly detonated the hydrogen bomb. As usual, Fox said, “It’s very surprising and probably fairly confusing initially to the audience.

“Like, a third of the way in [to the season], I would guess we are going to [settle] into one time frame, and it will be very linear—no more flashbacks, nothing. It will be on the Island and sort of a final conflict to the end,” said Fox.

He assured fans that all the crazy storylines introduced in earlier seasons will be resolved and that the conflict between Jack and Locke (Terry O’Quinn) “will come head to head” this season, but he wouldn’t divulge more than that.

All right, sounds good.  But I’ll be disappointed if I don’t get to see the Smoke Monster fight the polar bear in a wormhole.

I just wanna know how Hurley managed to not lose any weight while stranded on a deserted island for 6 seasons….and don’t give me that “he was eating all that Dharma food” malarkey. Dammit, I want answers!!!

The only way the ending will not suck is if we find out this was all just a bad dream by Dr. Bob Hartley.

Does the season end with me having sex with Evangeline Lilly? No? Well that sucks then.

Now that they’ve revealed the statue I don’t care about much else except to see Kate get turned down by both Jack and Sawyer and then shot to death.

haha, I second motion of disappointment if the smoke monster doesn’t fight the polar bear in a worm hole. Great show, though, I hope they don’t mess up the end

The only acceptable ending is if there’s a very tasteful lovemaking shower-scene between the Man from Atlantis and the Smoke Monster.

I have a feeling there will be a strong religious tie, but hey, could just be me…and I’m not a hugely religious person.

Hurley was on the island for 108 DAYS….then he was rescued and off island for 3 YEARS…..he’s been back on the island for, at most, 2 weeks….so…he’s been on the ISLAND for a total of 125 days, MAX…..
hardley enough time to lose any significant amount of weight…

I think Hurley said it best- “I’m a big guy, it’s gonna be a while before you’re going to want to give me a piggy back ride”

Jack the hottest?!? As if! He’s a whiny little boy, looks terrible with any facial hair and never takes his shirt off (Thank Jeebus!) Sawyer looks great no matter what he’s been through and always has a great comeback. My only issue with him is that he sometimes IS wearing a shirt.
Just my $.02

Television Spy says:

lol I highly doubt they can even begin to answer 1/4th of the questions raised in the show especially during season 3 and 4 (which was the worst season).

will march says:

I think that the end will involve a neat opportunity for a film. I want to see them take some risks and kill a few characters off.
Don’t forget Michaels son. He had a comic book that seemed to tell the future in season 1. There have been so many curve balls that anything they will come up with will seem feeble.

Angela says:

Okay, I’ll hope for the best… I started reading Harry Potter when I was a teen and had a million questions that I thought would never be answered, but she did a great job of answering every one of them in the last book since she had a plan. So, I’ll give the writers the benefit of the doubt and hope they come through.

GeekEngineer says:

I think they have stretched the story long enough, and they should have ended it by season 4. They did several round circles in the story and now they plan to go further up to season 6. Thats kind of surprising, since I can’t figure out what can they possibly do next to surprise us

“Redemptive and beautiful” I’ll take. “Very sad”–NO!!!! I don’t want SAD!!!!

I hope that jack n kate get a happy ending .. I hope that whatever matt said abt a sad ending dusnt apply to him n kate .. I dun mind if the other characters get a sad end .. But JATE has to get the ending they deserve .. They’ve just been thru so much and they really really deserve it more than anyone .. I feel so sorry for jack after seeing him go thru all that stuff .. They need each other !!! It might seem that kate is in love with sawyer but I guarantee she isn’t .. Whenever anytin happens between jack and sawyer she always attends to jack first .. And she was so jealous when she saw jack n juliet having dinner together that she had to sleep with sawyer just to make her feel like she’s getting even .. And in season one when jack was stuck in the cave , we all saw how kate reacted .. She practically wudnt stop digging .. And when sawyer compared himself to jack she gave him a very sarcastic counter comment .. And not to mention the part where she goes to see jack in the aquarium , when they connected for a few seconds there .. U cud see it ! They love each other .. We cn see how kate always tries to get jacks attention and only when she fails to get jack then she goes running to sawyer.. Kate even took it back when she said “I love him”(him being sawyer) , she said that she only did it so that they’d stop beating him up .. And no matter what jack thinks , even tho jack thinks he dusnt have another chance with kate and that kate is actually in love with sawyer .. I think he is totaly mistaken .. They totaly are meant for each other .. And I’m sure kate loves jack more than sawyer .. Her love for jack is real , deep , connection and affection whereas her love for sawyer is just lusty and playful.. I just didn’t get the part when cassidy said that kate was in love with sawyer !

rebecca says:

Oh and she cried when she found out that jack saw her and sawyer together in the cage , it means that jack matters a lot to her .. More than sawyer !! And after her n sawyer got away after jack helped them escape and she was talking to him on that walkie , u could just feel the intensity of their love connection which I never saw between kate n sawyer ..
