Plane Crash Pictures Not Related to 'Lost' Ending
May 26, 2010 03:05:50Very meticulous fans of "Lost" may be wondering what the footage at the end of "Lost" series finale means. The images of Oceanic 815 plane crash on the beach were played right after Jack closed his eyes and the "Lost" logo appeared, prompting speculation that the producers included one last easter egg that may lead to different interpretations on the ending.
Los Angeles Times dug out the mystery deeper and received a clarification from ABC execs. The photographs were not part of the story at all, it is confirmed. The producers of the show did not put it there but the network did without any intention to confuse the viewers about the ending.

'Lost' Prepared Wedding as Alternate Ending
May 25, 2010 10:05:49"Lost" is no more but the chatter about the finale is still going on. Fans, who were either satisfied or disappointed with the ending, are questioning whether creators Damon Lindelof and Carlton Cuse had prepared an alternative ending. Man in Black depicter Titus Welliver said they did not because they did not shoot any other scenes for the finale. But, E! Online dug out an information that there was indeed an alternative.
The sci-fi series could have ended with the wedding of Sun and Jin. But the catch is, the wedding was never intended to make it on air because it was deliberately created as faux script. Lindelof and Cuse spread a fake call sheet to the entire cast about the wedding so that spoilers would go toward the direction. However, in the end the so-called "spoilers" were never leaked.

Since the official synopsis is yet to be released, one can only hang onto the episode's title to guess what may come up in the episode. "What They Died For", hopefully will explain why [Spoiler Alert] Sun, Jin, Sayid and other characters have to be killed in this week's episode.

'Lost' 6.14 Preview: The Candidate
April 21, 2010 10:04:48"Lost" will take one week off the air next week but will return on May 4 with a "game-changer". The episode called "The Candidate" is rumored to be Jack-centric but the promo released by ABC is emphasized on Locke and his lunatic quality as the result of being on the island too long.
According to the network's official synopsis, Jack must decide whether or not to trust Locke after he is asked to follow through on a difficult task. "I could kill you, and I could kill every single one of you friends. There's nothing you could do to stop me," Locke says to someone.

'Lost' 6.13 Preview: The Last Recruit
April 14, 2010 11:04:37"Lost" apparently will stop having episodes that focus on one central character starting next week. The preview of "The Last Recruit" shows a mix of Locke, Jacob, Jack, Claire, Hurley and others with little information about the plot. But it looks like Sayid is having another confrontation with Desmond that involves a gun.
The title itself is most likely the reference of two sides organized by Smocke and Jacob. The official synopsis from ABC said, "Alliances are forged and broken as the Locke and Jack camps merge". The casting call for the episode might shed a bit about what will happen in the episode. The show was looking for an EMT and a surgeon. Both of these medical experts are skillful, compassionate and like helping people.
