QUESTION 1: "So, it was purgatory, yeah? Right? YEAH?!?" ANSWER 1: No. Apparently a lot of people think that the Island was purgatory and everyone was dead the whole time. In a recent the Verge interview, Lindelof was asked why he made the whole show bloody purgatory. Lindelof spent the next few minutes explaining to the interviewer that everything on the Island happened in real life and the show was not, in fact, purgatory. Of course, all Lindelof had to do was show him a line from the finale: "Everything that's happened to you is real." Pretty straight forward, but maybe it would have helped if the Architect from The Matrix said it. "... ergo, the Island is a series of tubes. Ergo, other stuff." The likely cause for this false theory is that over the credits of the finale, ABC chose to show images of the crashed plane in silence, with no characters around. It was apparently meant to simply allow the audience to reflect on the series, not to claim anything about the plot of the show. The characters did not die when their plane crashed. I COULD stress that enough, but I guess I just don't want to take the time. Read more: http://www.cracked.com/blog/108-answers-to-losts-supposedly-unanswered-questions/#ixzz2Khon5Jf3
