The two scene's with Hugo and Ben were great they were brief yet encompassed a never to be known span of time and space. I'll forever wonder two things:<br /> 1) Why would the Island still need a protector if the Smoke Monster is dead.<br /> 2) If the Island's role as some has posited was to maintain a balance between good and evil isn't the world in greater danger now that evil has been destroyed?<br /><br />But like the loss of a dear friend or family member, I'm coming to terms with the end of Lost.Orionhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03979702448430664019noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5149281632394942120.post-74445747500052084092010-05-25T23:31:53.114+01:002010-05-25T23:31:53.114+01:00I love how there's so many different views on ...I love how there's so many different views on Lost. I had two conversations about it at work today. One person gutted by the ending the other, like me, completely happy with it.<br /><br />There's a great piece here by someone from Bad Robot that nails it for me.<br /><br />http://lostmediamentions.blogspot.com/2010/05/someone-from-bad-robots-take-on-finale.htmlGray Collinshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13695434619102907210noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5149281632394942120.post-68842864096425853212010-05-25T23:22:09.181+01:002010-05-25T23:22:09.181+01:00A good review however I do disagree with your leaf...A good review however I do disagree with your leaf analogy. If you are the writer you are the creator of the world. You put that leaf on the pavement; you must know why you wrote about it otherwise why write about it at all. <br />I feel like Lost was like a magician you loved as child. You believed in magic in all its awe and wonder, as he finished each trick he promised a bigger and better trick next time and so we clapped our hands and came back for more, we would tell our friends about this great man who performed wonders and more people would join to watch. However as we grew up, our expectations grew with them. The magician couldn’t keep up with our demands and the amount of people he had to perform to and had no more tricks up his sleeve however he told everyone to come and see his last and final trick and as we all sat down the magician simply said ‘TA DA!!! ‘<br />‘Where is the magic we were promised?!!?’ We would scream.<br />‘It’s around us. it brought you all together.’ The magician would say, and as you look at your friends around you know that it was the magician was right. <br />You knew deep down that there was no such thing as magic but you loved the magician so much you expected him to perform a miracle. You loved the tricks he pulled and you made great friends in the process…. However all you ever wanted to see was real magic.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
