All Good Things Come to an End

[commonpeople1]

My thoughts on Season 5, and beyond:

- Juliet is NOT dead. When she blew up the bomb, she caused all of them to return to the present, unharmed --> wishful thinking. I'm fairly sure Sayid won't die either in the new series - if they had wanted him dead, it would have happened at the end of this season --> more wishful thinking.
- John Locke IS dead! That was an awesome twist... I bet his incubus has got lots of evil things planned for all the people of the island in the next series. First thing he'll do is make everyone turn against Ben and hunt him down like an animal. And he'll get the Others in the temple to be his army against the Others with Ricardus. And there will be lots of shootings, stabbings, hiding, explosions, near death experiences, moody eyes between Kate-Jack-Sawyer.
- Charles Widmore in a good guy shocker. He finally returns to the island with the help of Daniel's mom, Penelope and Desmond. Showdown between him and Ben.
- Claire is found amongst the Others living in the Temple. In the three years that have passed she has become a leader for that group of Others. She probably has a new partner, and maybe even another kid? She bitchslaps Kate for taking little Aaron off the island.
- Miles gets to talk to the real John Locke when he encounters his corpse. Probably learns some key information that saves all their lives.
- Some big mega showdown between the main characters and John "the Incubus" Locke. Ben gives up his life in order to destroy Locke and the island. Everyone else manages to get off the island on Desmond and Penelope's boat just before it sinks beneath the sea, gone forever.
- As Richard is leaving the island, his body begins to decompose and he turns to dust.
- Jack dies. Kate ends up with Sawyer. Juliet is reunited with her sister. Hurley wins the lottery again. Sayid goes back to the Caribbean to do charity work. Claire is reunited with little Aaron. The final shot is of Ben at the bottom of the ocean suddenly opening his eyes. The end!

When Jacob says "they are coming", who do you think it means? Surely he's not referring to the "shadow of the statue" people? (since they are mates with Richard, who is mates with Jacob?)

Jack is whiny, stubborn, wrong most of the time, self-righteous and just - gah! I mind Kate less, but definitely rate the other female characters above her - especially Juliet.

I think I need to see the who five seasons ago in a massive marathon so I can prepare myself for the final one. :-)

I liked Richard telling faux-Locke (Flocke!) to say 'hi' for him... I think 'they' are the 1970s Losties. I mean, he 'touched' all the people who ended up time travelling or...whatever. I mean, he set up the Shadow of the Statue people (Richard speaking in Latin makes me go weak at the knees...) and gave them the code words and stuff, so he probably knows they're there. They've been on the island for ages now, so he must've known.

Jack is indeed whiny, stubborn, wrong, duck voiced, self obsessed and selfish - this whole "and then the plane will land as it was supposed to!" condemns Kate to a life in prison - the woman he loves. In prison. For multiple counts of murder. Erm? Nice, Jack. Real nice. Way to take rejection in a...sane...way. Way to handle the Aaron thing like a normal human being - yes, meet your nephew and...RUN THE FUCK AWAY! WELL DONE, JACK, you IDIOT.
But Kate's just f'ing deluded and the producers NEED to stop this idiotic love quad thing that they have going. It's SO TIRED NOW.

I love how Juliet always seems to side step Kate, or just...throw her off. I think Juliet f'ing rules and her with Sawyer is just - well, a great partnership.
