The next season of Lost will be the final one. I think we will have to wait until January to get our next Lost fix.
Since the Season Five thread has now been closed, I thought a discussion thread before season Six starts might be fun.
So I'm just wondering what everyone thinks the big reveal will be. How will it all end, and what have the previous episodes been leading towards.
So here is an all round discussion thread for Lost, what has happened, what you think will happen, and how will it all end.
So go Lost fans 🙂
Some of my thoughts. Our first hint of what it may all be about, Locke playing a game of backgammon in season 1.
Locke: Backgammon is the oldest game in the world. Archaeologists found sets when they excavated the ruins of ancient Mesopotamia. Five thousand years old. That's older than Jesus Christ.
Walt: Did they have dice and stuff?
Locke: [nods] But theirs weren't made of plastic. Their dice were made of bones.
Walt: Cool.
Locke: Two players. Two sides. One is light. One is dark.
It might all just be a good versus evil scenario. Jacob is light, the man glimpsed in the season five finale is Dark.
The survivors are their pawns, and the game has always ended the same. With the dark side winning.
"They come, fight, they destroy, they corrupt. It always ends the same." -Man
"It only ends once. Anything that happens before that, it's just progress." -Jacob
Jacob is trying to prove that humanity's good side can win out. The man in the black shirt, has seen many times on the Island, that this is not the case, and is sick of playing the game. By finding his loop-hole and killing Jacob, he hopes the game has ended.
If anyone has their own thoughts and theories - please share. 🙂
