Lost finale: You got to be kidding me
Six years. Six freaking years building up to something, anything and this is what we get?
Epic fail.
The series finale of LOST aired last night. Amid much hype and promises of answers we got a sappy, anti-climatic mess that’s causing a lot of divison amongst fans.
The debates are raging all over the internet with people either having loved it, hated it, or left feeling dissatisfied and cheated somehow. (I’d mention the smug bastards who are gloating about how they didn’t get sucked in to begin with, but they don’t count).
Guess this is the result of writers painting themselves into a corner with no clear idea (despite their claims to the contrary) of what they were doing.
Apparently, the ratings for the finale were 13 million. Solid but not spectacular. As for the two and a half hour running time, a whopping 45 minutes went to commercials. That’s 45 minutes of my life that I will never, ever, get back.
JJ Abrams and company better deliever on Super 8 next summer, or it’s over between us.
