I've never seen Lost...Just not my cup of tea I guess

I thought the show ended....

i gave lost a chance once when it first started, watched about 5 episodes and though

wow ive just wasted somewhere in the region of 5hours of my life and this show is indeed a huge steaming pile of dog poo!

Why is it people post negative comments in threads like this and think people actually WANT to hear it?  Personally I could give a crap if you don't like 'Lost' as this thread was aimed at people who do.  If you want to bash it go start your own thread and I promise I won't post any pro-Lost comment within ten miles of it...   

The big question now is 'Who are the Oceanic 6?'  In his flash forward, Hurley refers to the 'Oceanic 6' which would indicate only six people left the island.  They already have identified that Jack and Kate have, because they met at the airport and Jack tried to talk her into going back.  At least one has died, because Jack went to the Funeral....

So, who are the other three and which one died?

Personally, I think it was Ben or Locke in the coffin...

Why are people still watching it?

I don't think it was Locke in the coffin, and I'll tell you why. So far, we know that Jack, Kate, sayeed (spelling?), Hurly, and Aaron (Claire's baby) survived. That's five of the oceanic six. I'm not counting Ben becuase I just can't see that guy allowing himself to be rescued, I think he is up to something secretive and super-villain-like, and got off of the island on his own. Anyway, we know that the group split and a bunch of people went with Jack, while Hurly, Kate, Claire (and baby) and Sawyer among others went with Locke. Kate got all PO'd at Sawyer and went back to Jack, Sayeed is already on Jack's side so that leaves Hurly. I'm betting that at some point Hurly leaves Locke's camp and goes back to Jack and freinds. Then something else happens and a bunch of people die and only Jack, Sayeed, Hurly, Kate, Desmond, and Aaron (Claire's baby) get rescued. As for who is in the box? I couldn't tell you, but my theory pivots on Locke being right and as such, all those who stayed with him are alive and well on the island.

Ah, forgot about the fact that Desmond got to the island another way, not on flight 815. Anyway, Ben has been off of the island. Remember when Miles (the asian guy from the freighter) showed a picture of Ben and said "we're here to find Benjamin Linus"? He was pictured on a busy street somewhere.

Yeah, I loved the guy getting sucked into the low revving, somehow still running jet engine... 

As for Ben being on a busy street, it could be in the future... 

I forgot all about this thread. It now looks like Sun is one of the Oceanic six also. And maybe Jin, though it's not clear whether he died before being resued and his body was brought back, or what.

Also, the crash bothered me too, the nose section should have flipped over several times and tumbled to the water/ground in many pieces. It's doubtful that anyone would survive that, and imposible for anyone to survive in the tail section. But that doesn't mean it's a bad show, it just means that like most people, the peson who created the crash sequence knew almost nothing about airplanes.
