I’m going to hit this one off immediately: if you have not seen the Lost season 5 finale yet, stop reading right here! If you’ve not see Lost at all, stop reading NOW! This is, in many people’s (including myself), one of the greatest shows ever made; it is also one that requires that you watch it from season 1, episode 1 straight through. The front end will be without worry, but once you click to the second half of this piece, nothing is sacred.

Before getting into it, let me just say that this was one of the best season finales I’ve ever seen. It had its areas of question that I wasn’t a big fan of, as I’m sure was the same for many people, but overall, it was intense and emotional and just blow-your-mind good. Lost‘s typical recipe is to have a smaller twist before the title sequence, and then a big twist ending point. In this finale, it seemed like every freakin’ commercial break had a twist to preface it. The entire two hours, my brain was moving and I was re-visiting old episodes and situations and trying to put the pieces together. I plan on watching this thing at least two more times — maybe even more if I start to miss it in the painful wait to 2010 and the beginning of the final season. I’m still not even recovered from the Battlestar Galactica series finale and another is already on its way.

Click over for a brief recap and my own wacky thoughts on what might be happening on the island. And again, spoilers are waiting on the other side, so consider yourselves warned. From here on out it is all fair game.

A movie adaptation of the brilliant TV series, Lost, has been subtly mentioned from time-to-time, but with no real guarantee whether it will actually happen or not. To add a giant slice of interesting to all of those subtle mentions, series co-creator and writer Damon Lindelof has shared a little information on the prospective film.

Lindelof explains that there could always be a movie, whether it is a few years down the road, or if it’s a reboot twenty years down the road. But the bomb came when he also admitted that all of the characters that we know, love, and even hate from the show — they won’t be in the movie.

Here’s the quote, transcribed by Latino Review from the video interview that can be seen at the bottom of this story!

For the ninth episode of their Lost video series, The Fine Brothers are joining JJ Abrams’ Lost universe with that of classic Star Trek in Star Trek: The Lost Generation.

Check out Kirk, Spock, Sulu, and Bones as they visit the Lost island and its cast of characters in the video below. Watch for guest appearances from the DeLorean from Back to the Future, as well as those most excellent dudes Bill and Ted (well, maybe not “Ted” — you’ll see).
