Evangeline Lilly defends Lost finale and explains why you didn't get all the answers

Quote:

Speaking at Dragon Con, Bleeding Cool quotes her as saying: "For those of who you didn't like it; you loved our show, because at the end of every week, we would leave you with an impossible and pressing mystery.

"It would force you to the water cooler, or the dinner table, asking each other the most difficult questions. Usually philosophical questions. Sometimes questions that touched on God or religion and reality, and what it means to be human."

"And then, on the finale, you sat waiting with baited breath, thinking 'they're gonna give us the answer'. Well, that's what religions do," she elaborated.

"So if you want the answer to the great big question of life, go to church, go to God, find the answer, but art… art is supposed to, every time without fail turn the question back on you, and asks you to look at what you're seeing, listen to what you're hearing, experience it, and then look at it in the mirror of your soul and figure out what it means to you."

In a parallel universe, Lilly's explanation may have been a bit different, given that the original ending was set to feature a gigantic volcano...

So, is there one single take on what 'The End" really means? Well, here's what Evangeline thinks...

"And so there is no one interpretation of the finale of Lost. For as many people that are in this room, there are that many true, real, endings for Lost.

"Because it's just a reflection of who you are, and it's the ultimate question being posed to you, not the ultimate answer being handed to you."

Some people definitely weren't a fan of the End, that's for sure

It was strange and confusing but I did not think it was bad

**stlavin95** · 09-08-2018, 04:30 PM

Me neither

desmondluverbrotha · 09-09-2018, 03:03 PM

It is their loss

**stlavin95** · 09-09-2018, 06:14 PM

Yes it was

desmondluverbrotha · 09-10-2018, 06:01 PM

But to each their own.

**stlavin95** · 09-10-2018, 07:20 PM

I'm sure some people weren't happy about it due to ships too.

**Julie** · 09-10-2018, 08:15 PM

I think that was definitely part of it for some people! Plus people who felt there weren't enough answers.

I was fine with the ending

**stlavin95** · 09-10-2018, 11:39 PM

I was too

desmondluverbrotha · 09-11-2018, 09:04 AM

I would have liked more answers but with tv you get what you get
