Lost season finale (very much a SPOILER thread!)
Ok, so we find out:
- Why the plane crashed
- Why they need to push the button
- How Desmond got to the island and hatch

We are left with loose ends regarding:
- Jack, Sawyer, and Kate
- Sayeed
- Locke and Eko
- Desmond
- Michael and Walt (sorta)

We are also given new mysteries:
- Why didn't Desmond manage to sail away from the island?
- What's with that 4-toed statue foot??? :wtf:
- The invisible ink map that ex-army guy was drawing - why was he drawing it, and how did he know what he was drawing?
- With the revelation that the notebooks with all the written observations get tubed out to the middle of Tarzan's backyard, it does seem that the observers themselves were the ones being tested. Why?
- What is causing the electromagnetic buildup?
- What happened with the hatch and all that equipment? "Violet glow in the sky"???
- How in the world did Desmond's girlfriend know to set up a monitoring station that would look for an EM anomaly???

Along with a number of old mysteries (I probably don't remember them all):
- What happened to the black smoke monster thing that we haven't heard a peep from since Eko scared it off?
- What was the quarantine hatch, those vaccines, and (new) those isolation suits protecting people from?
- And of course, why are all the metaphysical things happening on the island (Locke being able to walk, the black lady being healed, people seeing other people from their past)?

"...The quintessential quality of our age is that of dreams coming true. Just think of it. For centuries we have dreamt of flying; recently we made that come true: we have always hankered for speed; now we have speeds greater than we can stand: we wanted to speak to far parts of the Earth; we can: we wanted to explore the sea bottom; we have: and so  on, and so on: and, too, we wanted the power to smash our enemies utterly; we have it. If we had truly wanted peace, we should have had that as well. But true peace has never been one of the genuine dreams - we have got little further than preaching against war in order to appease our consciences. The truly wishful dreams, the many-minded dreams are now irresistible - they become facts." - 'The Outward Urge' by John Wyndham

"The very essence of tolerance rests on the fact that we have to be intolerant of intolerance. Stretching right back to Kant, through the Frankfurt School and up to today, liberalism means that we can do anything we like as long as we don't hurt others. This means that if we are tolerant of others' intolerance - especially when that intolerance is a call for genocide - then all we are doing is allowing that intolerance to flourish, and allowing the violence that will spring from that intolerance to continue unabated." - Bren Carlill

How come Jack's dead dad got out of his coffin and appear around the island?  This was never resolved.  You could say it was just Jack's hallucinations but when he went to the coffin it was empty.

Perhaps he was hallucinating that his dad's coffin was empty? :nervous:

Can't tell if you're serious or not, but:
The plane crashed near the caves, a few episodes later they all moved to the caves.  I think someone would have noticed a rotting corpse in a coffin before everyone inexplicably returned to the beach.

Re: Lost season finale (very much a SPOILER thread!)
Judging by how many loose and barely knotted ends Alias had at its final finale this week, I can't help but think Lost will end up the same a few years down the road. And am I the only one who thinks jumping around between the past, present and future is getting old? Can no-one tell a coherent story in a linear format these days?
