Lost Season 4 finale

If you haven't seen it yet, don't read further.

Ok - so who's seen it? I'm addicted more than EVER now. I can't wait another 8 months for the next season!

Jeremy Bentham - philosopher known for utilitarianism and the design of Panopticon. Transformation of identity from one opposing philosopher to another within three years after Jack and other's left. What do you think happened? The finale does make you wonder if the island indeed is a "purgatory" or a panopticon. Simply mind blowing.

I read in a Times article that ABC signed an agreement to let the show Lost finish after three more seasons and I'm somewhat glad it won't drag on like other popular shows of the past.

I am intrigued as well. I can't wait to find out what is going on. I have my ideas of what will happen but not sure.

I also hope that whatever happens that Jack does not crack completely. He's almost there now.

And I want to know what happened to all the other people on the island.

My question is when Ben said "You all have to go back".. does he mean Desmond as well?

Exactly, and what about Lapidus, does he have to go back too? It answered certain questions but then posed so many more. Waiting another 8 months will be truly painful!

I am starting to think that the Island was not moved so much in space as it was in time especially given the fact that in "The shape of things to come" episode which happens almost a year later, Ben was wearing the same parka he wore when he "moved the island".

What is the deal with Kate's dream with Claire? I remember Hurley saying that they would all be visited by a ghost but if the goal is to convince them to return to the Island then Claire certainly isn't doing that! What do you guys think?

Oh man, I didn't think of that! Of course the island didn't move physically, it simply shifted in time! But then, that means something happened within those three years that made the island disappear? With that theory, these "ghosts" are starting to make sense - esp. if they are just time traveling.

It might simply be that the original Oceanic 6 crew has to go back to the island, since they were put there for a reason and they failed to finish it. Meaning the island "chose" them to be there, whereas Desmond and Lupidus found the island through outside means.
