    So Smokey also told Richard to tell Locke that he needed to die.

    What a fucking asshole.

    Yeah... we lost Locke and Juliet tonight maybe.

    Heres hoping juliet gets taken where the rest of them do.

    We also lost Sayid.

    I don't know how I felt about this finale. I can't help but think it was the worst of the bunch.

    It feels odd we meet jacob only for him to die. And not even "maybe its a flesh wound... Oh crap he's on fire"

    There's 2 sides. I don't think it's "Good vs Evil", it's more like "Fate vs Free Will". Jacob is Free Will, the guy talking about how all of human actions are progress, the guy who tells Ben he has a "choice" but doesn't try to influence it. ZombieLocke is Smokey is Fate, the guy who talks about how humans are all just destined to fuck themselves up. Both are responsible for course correction on the island. Fate aka Smokey is a dick and just eats people to do it, Jacob aka Free Will goes around helping people in the past and gently steering their lives while still giving them free choice. Now why does Fate want to kill Free Will?
    LOST!

    My 2 cents anyway.

    I quite liked this episode, and I'm pretty convinced that Jacob is the smoke monster now.

    Shit's 'bout to get real! In 2010. :(

    I'm pretty sure it was the other guy in the cabin

    I don't understand why Jacob was out gathering everyone though. Guess we'll find that out next year.

    sayid isn't dead yet that I saw. pretty quickly it seemed to me if he was going to die he would have just been shot to death rather than holding on. it's not like he had a specific reason to live a few more minutes, unlike juliet who lived to blow the bomb.

    juliet I got the impression would die from the fall, just the way she looked when they showed her.

    I like it. Fate won when Jacob was stabbed; BUT free will won when julliet PUMMELED a bomb into exploding.

    Jacob wasn't in the cabin, it's not his cabin. The Other Guy in the beginning has been in there, and he asked Locke to help him kill Jacob.

    I'm betting they don't know. Richard seemed surprised when he saw Locke's body. And wasn't it him that said "If that's Locke, then who's inside?"

    Well, I just realized this one maybe thing.
    Bad guy(guy opposed to Jakob) pretends he's locke so he can tell Richard to tell locke that he has to die, therefore ensuring Locke will die, so bad guy can pretend to be Locke and convince Ben to kill Jakob. This makes sense as the loophole might be that bad guy cannot directly kill Jakob so he had to come up with a plan to have someone else kill him.

    Also, is Jacob dead, or did the A-bomb just reset or change everything?

    Okay. Theory time.

    Otherdude was living in the cabin. He tried to kill Jacob a couple times, I bet, and Jacob did some hocus pocus shit to lock him in there, hence the ring. The "help me", to Locke, was from otherdude. He was recruiting Locke to live vicariously through him, so that otherdude might get another stab at Jacob. And if Walt is Abaddon, getting people to the places they need to be, Walt visiting Locke in the Purge Pit was just furthering Locke along in his subconscious quest to kill Jacob.

    The big reason is why. Everything else is just the pieces that go into it. You don't need the individual pieces if you have the box. You already know what the puzzle looks like.

    Ben is a pawn. The first time he ever met Jacob was when he killed him. Richard obviously is Jacob's right hand man, and would keep his real location a secret.

    I was thinking otherdude was stuck in the bottom of the pocket, the little rock cavern holding back the energy. Jacob and otherdude clearly aren't human.

    This makes a lot of sense when compared to a few theories going around, regarding an older someone else.

    I really hope they bring her back, I am not one of the 'shippers' but I really did like Sawyer/Juliet a lot, and I really think she is one of the more talented actresses on the show.

    That wasn't Jacob in the cabin. Smokey has been playing Ben and Locke (and Richard maybe?) for a looooong time in order to orchestrate the chain of events that resulted in Ben killing Jacob. I'm getting this from when Undead Locke says something to the effect of, "You have no idea what I went through to get here."

    I like how conveniently they kill of the two major answer storage containment units within three episodes of each other.

    Dan, after trawling through endless amounts of research and experiments, (or going completely crazy), gets back to the island and is dead within four hours.

    We see Jacob for the first time, in the present, ready and willing* to discuss things, and then he gets stabbed several times and hurled into a fire.

    *lol Ben

    I'm pretty convinced at this point that either Adams is smokey, or they are working together.

    We know smokey can only take on the form of dead people, and Locke is dead. The loophole involves Adam's having to convince someone to kill jacob because he can't.
