'Just Rewards (2)'
[NAFDA] This is where we talk about the show! Anything that's aired in the US (including promos) is fair game. No spoilers though -- if you post one by accident, an admin will delete it.
The fact that it was actual bit of dialogue from Sideways-Juliet didn't come up, I don't think.
That was what was annoying me. Misdirect. I'd been waiting for the final Sawyer & Juliet dialogue to come up - but I didn't think "It worked" would. We were supposed to think that was an actual message via Miles - like some of the other messages he communicates.
Some humor courtesy of my brother.
We were on IM when I told him I had to go watch the finale. "Hurley devours the island," he predicted.
When I returned, I told him he wrong.
Tonight, he said, "You're a liar, Hurley did eat the island."
"No, he didn't."
His response: "He drank the island, he drank it up."
On the way in to work this morning, a radio station was doing a tribute to Lost, playing songs that were appropriate for each character. The only one I heard was for Locke: "Back in Black."
I laughed my ass off.
ABC says final images of wreckage 'not part of the final story.' They just put them there to ease the transition from the finale to the news. Which makes so much more sense because I didn't know why Cuse and Lindelof would want anything after that perfect final shot.

Now I'm even more glad that I never watch things on an actual tv. My acquired version of the finale ended with the eye close-up. I think I would have been thrown off my anything else.
eta: Wait. Aren't there commercials between a show and the news? Wouldn't that be 'something transitional' enough?
I have to work! But my brain is busy thinking about Lost.
At this moment, about the choices people made in sideways-land. Sawyer and Miles, who were con men, envisioned themselves as cops. Sun and Jin were in love but not married -- Jin never made the deal with Sun's father. Hurley was rich but not cursed. Jack had a son. Locke had a better relationship with his father, on one hand, but also caused a terrible injury to him.
Charlie, still a big druggie. Kate, still a fugitive. Sayid had to save his family by being the type of man he was trying to escape.
No real conclusions here, just a lot of hmmmmm.
