Even if he is announced to still be in the cast doesn't mean he is 'alive' on the show.

Yep. Ian summerhaller (boone) was in the cast notes on "do no harm" one eppsode after he died

That was "Busted" by Mythbusters, a sinking ship will NOT pull you under.

who says? The force of the watter pulling in will suck you down with the ship..... cuz the ship had a huge hole in it, whitch caused it to sink and anything remaining on the ship to be pulled down....

i have to say that this finale did not fell like lost at all, it was dark and totally diferent from the past.....

I also wonder the fate of desomand. I wonder if charles knew he was on "his" island and that he came back. Would he give des a shot with pen, perhaps to save her from ben? Or will he kill him or send him back to the island. could he have sent pen and des to the island and that comment "you'll never find her" mean the island?

I hope des makes it to the end

Yes, it is possible he lived. Michael is dead, however.

Locke is also dead. The future is the future, not a possible future. But don't worry, he'll be alive through probably all of S5, and killed in the S5 finale.

I know this will sound crazy, but hear me out on this.

When I was looking at some of the screen captures of Locke in the coffin, I didn't see the scar under his right eye. Now that could of course be the angle of the camera, makeup, lighting, etc., but it got me wondering if this is actually someone else.

I can't imagine who and why it looks like Locke, but just a possibility I'm throwing out there. I am, after all, running on very little sleep the last 72 hours, so it could also be in my head :p

Morticians cover scars and stuff for funerals.

There were two rabbits in the Swan orientation video mishap, so the possibility of one being Locke Locke and the other being.... other Locke, could still be there; that's assuming Locke does whatever Hallawax/Candle did to make two bunnies.

One other note: before finally seeing that Ben did in fact travel through time to the future, his situation was different from Desmond's. Desmond's time travel was mental, while Ben's was physical. It's possible, though unlikely, that when Ben moved the wheel to move the island, that a double was made of him, one on the island, another in the Sahara, but I don't see that being the case.

also this flash forward took place in april 2007

Pretty sure the 'We have to go back!' was August 07, and by the end, its later than that. Remember, Kate said 'I've been trying for three years to forget what happened the day we left." Now, that doesn't mean it has to be exactly three years -- Jan 08 -- but it certainly means more than, say, two and a half, which would be summer 07.

Yup, Ben time traveled right from the frozen donkey wheel in Jan 05 to the Sahara desert in Oct 05.

The 'doppleganger' theory is interesting, and it would explain why Locke left the island. I couldn't see him doing so willingly, unless he was told to by say, Jacob. But if its the scars that you think prove this, you're missing something. Something that creates a duplicate would also duplicate the scars. Remember, the duplicate bunny had the number painted, and that was just painted on.

Maybe that's the reason he can never go back. Like the duplicate bunnies, who can't be close to each other.

I think Ben said the person can't go back because the island wouldn't want him back. I'll be pretty mad though if the Oceanic Six + Locke go back and Ben doesn't go with them. By the way, does anyone think they have to bring Lapidus and Walt and Desmond too?

One other thing, on the frozen donkey wheel... is the 'teleporting' random, or is each position on the wheel a different place for the island to go. Meaning, basically, there are eight possible locations for the island.

Anybody knows what Song/Artist was Jack listening to in the truck..... when he goes to that coffin place
"Gouge Away": Jack is listening to this Pixies song on the way back to the funeral home. Pixies singer Black Francis was born on April 6th, the date after Jack's newspaper was published. The Pixies were also a favorite band of Nirvana singer Kurt Cobain, whose song Scentless Apprentice was played in Jack's first visit to the funeral home in Through the Looking Glass. Gouge Away is the 15th song on the album Doolittle.(Music)
I don't know, it just seems right. After all, Charlotte decided to stay on the island and find her place of birth.

The daughter idea is an interesting theory. Ben might not know about having a daughter, that's possible. But I doubt that is Annie.

The actress is not even 30 year who plays Charlotte, so I'm assuming the character is around the same age (25-30). Michael Emerson is 54, so I think we can safely say that the character is around that age as well.

Exactly, which is why we can safely assume that Charlotte is NOT Annie, even though the finale heavily alluded to some form of past on the island.

Not to mention, there is a striking resemblance.

Well her being to young certainly one point to be made, but what about the fact that Ben would have known that when he outed who she was to the group going to the Barracks?

There's some kind of tie to the island and possibly Dharma from her brief flashback scene and the discussion she had with Miles and then with Daniel. With that said, Ben got his information from Michael, so it's possible that some of what Michael found in her background information was forged.

Ben was born in the early 60s, so he's pushing 50. Locke won't even reach 54 with his death in 2007 (born in 56)

    • Samsung is shutting down yet another app used by millions by David Uzondu Samsung has announced that it is shutting down Samsung Max, its VPN service used by more than 50 million people, effective today. Samsung Max VPN, if you don't know, was an Android app born on February 23, 2018, out of the ashes of Opera Max, a very popular data-saving VPN that Opera had discontinued the previous year. Samsung bought the discontinued service, rebranded it, and added a native Samsung UI to fit the Galaxy ecosystem. The app could do things like compress images, help you manage background data on a per-app basis, reduce video data consumption, shrink music files, optimize webpages, block advertisement trackers in incognito mode, and encrypt your internet traffic on public Wi-Fi networks. Image via SammyGuru If you open the app now, you'd be greeted by a shutdown banner warning that all VPN, data saving, and privacy services stopped functioning on June 15, 2026. The creators failed to provide a reason for the shutdown, instead publishing a farewell note that read: "Thank you for being with us over the years. Your support and activity truly meant a lot to us and helped shape this app into what it became." This same message appears on the Google Play Store listing for the app as well. Max VPN is the latest service from Samsung to join the list of discontinued applications from the company. Just two months ago, the Korean tech giant announced that it is completely shutting down Samsung Messages, forcing millions of users to migrate to Google Messages by next month. The only devices that the shutdown won't affect are older smartphones running Android 11 or lower. Some of the features of Google Messages that Samsung hopes will entice users include AI-powered scam detection to block suspicious links, integrated Gemini AI tools to generate quick replies, custom chat bubbles, and universal RCS compatibility for sharing high-quality media with iOS users. The platform also offers seamless syncing across tablets and smartwatches. In addition to that, users gain access to message scheduling, smart classification, and automated category sorting.

    • 1. Define "better". 2. It's still more expensive than equivalent PCs so... And there is not one Windows platform. This is the mistake ALL Apple oriented people make. Apple is one OEM. You could reasonably compare them to one PC OEM, say Dell or HP. But you can't compare them to ALL PC OEMs. Case in point, Apple has NO touch screen MacBooks. No tablet Macs. There are no rugged Macs. The variety of PC OEM design is insane. With Apple, you have... Apple. The problem is that you're starting with Apple as the definition of "good" then filtering out anything that isn't close to an existing Apple product, then trying to homogenise all of those left into a fictional product line and then ignore any innovations to create a minimal feature subset so you can say "See! Apple better!" PS: I was an Apple dev for 17 years and helped develop MacInTalk and disability solutions for Apple, and worked on Microsoft Office for MacOS - and I have several Macs and MacBooks - so tread very carefully.
    • Major Xbox layoffs may claim South of Midnight developer Compulsion entirely by Pulasthi Ariyasinghe Microsoft has been making major changes in its gaming wing Xbox for a few months now, including the appointment of a new CEO, a large number of leadership changes, and strategy shifts. However, the company is seemingly also looking at initiating a major layoffs wave at Xbox and perhaps even a studio closure. The new report lands from Kotaku, Xbox first-party developer Compulsion Games is being shuttered soon by Microsoft. For those unfamiliar with the studio, it's the team behind Contrast (2013), We Happy Few (2018), and South of Midnight (2025). Its latest game was quite well received, even winning a Peabody Award for its writing. It even received a 9/10 in Neowin's own review, highlighting its engaging storyline, gorgeous world, and curious characters. The studio joined Xbox Game Studios in 2018, just as Microsoft announced it is acquiring Playground Games, Undead Labs, and Ninja Theory. Despite recent listings for new staff roles, according to the new report, Compulsion Games is being closed entirely, with over 90 staff being let go. Kotaku also added that the studio's leadership is in negotiations with Microsoft about this decision, but no official details have been revealed yet. The report lands just as two senior managers of Xbox leave their posts at Microsoft Gaming. Head of Xbox Game Studios Craig Duncan and chief of staff Louise O'Connor originally began their journey in Rare and have been a part of Xbox for over two decades. Dunkan has been responsible for games like Kinect Sports and Sea of Thieves, while O'Connor was primarily working on Rare's Everwild project before its cancelation. If this report about the studio shutdown is accurate, this may just be the start of a major new layoffs wave at Xbox Game Studios. There are also rumors of Arkane Studios being heavily affected. As always, take all these reports with a grain of salt until something official materializes from Microsoft or the studios.
    • The flaw with this analysis is that this laptop has a cellphone CPU in it. In the Intel world, that would be an N150 and those are everywhere, even in low end laptops. You can get an N150 based NUC with 16GB RAM and 256GB-512GB SSD... NOT soldered in... for < $500 Canadian (around US$360). The problem is two fold: tech bloggers/writers on most tech site (like this one, ironically) overvalue Apple and apparently aren't in the same earnings class as most regular people. As a result, we get breathless articles about how everyone needs a folding phone when most people just cannot afford one... or really need one. And we get Apple used as the baseline metric regardless of whether that comparison makes any sense. If Dell or HP released a retail laptop with a cellphone motherboard, you'd be all over them for doing that - but Apple does it and it's genius. I see articles suggesting what Samsung - a company that basically started the foldable phone market and has built them for eight years - needs to do to compete with Apple's unreleased, unspecced and unseen folding phone. Sorry, no - if the Neo (really creative name there BTW - still, better than the Go, the other "creative" product name everyone's using) encourages PC makers to make cellphone laptops using lower end ARM processors, we all lose. It's a step backwards and a capitulation to the fact that semiconductor makers and computer OEMs (and tech bloggers) have totally lost the plot.
