This is an incredible recap. I never thought of a few of your insights from that perspective. So much to comment on though! I think the idea of Jacob actually being a negative influence is a right good twist; meaning some of the O6’s behaviors in the finale appeared childish because Jacob’s touch CAUSED them to be unable to develop into much more mature adults.
It’s late but I LOVE this review, and the gifs are actually quite important for interpreting stuff you say. Excellent work!!!

Always great reviews, worth reading well after the show’s are over, in no small part thanks to the great pictures and funny, insightful words.
Thanks for helping with my withdrawls, Fishbiscuit!

It’s because Fish tells it like it is and doesn’t have her head shoved up the show/writer’s ass. If the writing is bad, she says so and the fanboys can’t stand that.

It’s one not wone. But neither of us are posting an article. we are commenting.. grammer isnt important. and yea im nitpicking with the grammer comment. but it seems to me that although i do enjoy her posts which i continue to stress.. fish seems to be nitpicking lost more then anything. doesnt seem like she even likes the show most of the time. thats my point. also if you are gonna post something on the internet you better be ready to be critqued… thats just the way it is.

Some excellent insight! Regardless of who first mentioned it, I particularly liked the reference to Pierre Teilhard de Chardin’s spiraling Omega Point description. Well, as a solution to LOST, I think it’s okay and certainly makes sense, but I’m more interested in its implications for real life. It works particularly well with Ian Lungold’s “Secrets of the Mayan” calendar: http://video.google.com/videoplay?docid=-489786527478456160&ei=8OxISuDZG5OAqwLCucmJBg&q=secrets+of+the+mayan+calendar&hl=en

It’s the idea that we live in periods of time where the same energy happens in smaller and smaller intervals all converging on December 21, 2012. This is why time, technology, events, etc, seem to be happening faster and faster.

It also fits with my own beliefs that time acts as a vertical spiral, and that similar events with similar themes all happen in alignment but on different levels, i.e., Tower of Babel, Titanic, World Trade Center all relate to the theme of ego claiming that something was the greatest being destroyed to make way for a new energy. These all happened within different levels of the spiral, but at similar points to form a straight line. This is why history continually repeats itself.

While plot-wise, it remains to be seen how satisfying of a conclusion this would be to LOST, as a mythological interpretation of our world, I think it’s really interesting and certain serves as a heads-up for what might be coming for us in the next several years.

You do the best recaps. Much appreciation. Especially glad that you’re not in the knee-jerk “Juliet is the only good character on ‘Lost’” club.

With what happened to Juliet, at least Sawyer and Sayid have something to share a beer over. Loves’ a beach. As for the “Jack n’ the bomb” well Kate really screwed him up, pass him a beer too. Kate needs to go, now thats something I can “let go”.

Point Being;

She destroys men’s lives by either killing them or emotionally numbing them to want to die. Poor “one-armed willie” in Aussie who had a “helluva mortgage” ended up knocked out and no truck, step-daddy blew up, poor marshall cracked skull, impaled, shot, then suffocated, the police hubby who married the woman was drugged and left to rot, our poor poor bank robber who just wanted help miss maggie got shot, dear ole’ Tommy OMG our male “Thelma and Louise” hero ends up shot and his poor family lost their dad and hubby…now Jack whose life was so twisted by this woman thought best to take the core out of a thermonuclear device and detonate it just for a remote chance to never having to meet this woman. Not even to mention our little Aaron who was just abandoned by this woman and then given to a woman Kate didn’t even really know, she didn’t even ask for ID. Katie the lunch box stealin’ witch. As per advice from Christian “Let it go, Jack” damn straight!

Juliet was the variable… w/o being touched by Jacob she was the only one with free will.

Juliet decided the stuff. She paid for her decisions. Stop saying shit about her. That was the most logical decision from her point of view. Period. The end.
Blame Sawyer for looking to Kate in front of the woman he has been with during the last 3 years. THAT was stupid.

You’re right it’s not a big deal. It’s a non issue. And you’re criticizing Fishbiscuit for grammatical errors? You should reread your own posts first (it’s “cite” for one thing, not “site”)

This is why I was so glad Fish left DarkUFO. All these nitpickers who feel the need to pick apart a great fun review that’s given to us for free, to enjoy if we like or ignore if we choose. I don’t get why Fish seems to be the wone who attracts this kind of rude treatment. It’s so uncalled for.

Thanks from me, Fish! I enjoyed it beginning to end. Just pure pleasure. Thanks!
