Ben
Richard
Miles
Frank Lapidus
Ilana

WTFLocke/Smokey

Vincent

[Tommy_Carcetti]

1. My guess:

In the end, only Vincent lives.

[Bucky]

26. Man, don't get me started on Vincent. He's totally the main villain of the show

He was constantly trying to drive a wedge between Walt and Michael and I'm convinced he's the reason Rose and Bernard ending up dying in that cave.

[SoxFan]

2. Define "live"

This being Lost, that's a rather flexible term.

[XemaSab]

3. You're welcome to create your own definition

:D

[graywarrior]

4. We know ZERO about Frank Lapidus

NOTHING. No flashbacks (except for one---maybe), no flash forwards, no flash sideways.

[XemaSab]

5. Which might make him the king of the redshirts

:D

[graywarrior]

6. That's what I'm thinking.

No one even discusses him. And yet, there he is....lurking, watching, and tight lipped....and a crazy muthafucker if there ever was one.

[Bucky]

27. We know a little bit about him. The island wanted him on the plane.

And the island kills who it wants to lure in. That said, I think he lives.

[XemaSab]

7. My picks:

Totally dies:

Sayid
Claire
Widmore
Ben
Richard
Miles
Frank Lapidus
Ilana
WTFLocke/Smokey
Christian Shepherd


Lives:

Jack
Kate
Jin
Mr. Paik
Sun
Hurley
Bernard
Rose
Walt
Charlie (the son of Desmond and Penny)
Aaron
Ji Yeon
Vincent

Not sure:

Desmond
Penny

Succeeds Jacob:

Sawyer

[graywarrior]

8. I'll be sad if Frank goes.

So who kills Widmore? I hope Sawyer does it.

[SoxFan]

11. My left-filed prediction: Locke Prime lives

Dies in the conventional sense:

Sawyer
Ben
Rose
Bernard
Miles
Widmore
Hawking
Lapidus
Paik
Jin
Charlie Hume
Ji Yeon Kwan


Lives

Jack
Kate
Hurley
Sun
Vincent


Probably Live

Desmond
Penny


Dies in a weird sense

Sayid
Claire
Alpert
Smokey/MIB/Flocke


Lives in a weird sense

Locke Prime

[graywarrior]

17. No no no, not Sawyer. Not ever Sawyer!

[SoxFan]

19. That boy's got "redemption by selfless sacrifice" written all over him!

[graywarrior]

21. Don't die for us, Sawyer!!

We neeeeeeeeed you!

[Ohio Joe]

9. My guesses

Jack - Dead
Kate - Dead
Hurley - Lives and gets off the Island
Sawyer - Dead
Sayid - Dead
Jin - Dead
Sun - Lives and becomes the new protector of the Island (Jacob)
Claire - Dead
Bernard - Lives... unsure where
Rose - Lives... unsure where
Walt - Lives off the island

Desmond - Lives off the island
Penny - Lives off the island
Widmore - Dead

Ben - Lives and becomes the new smokey
Richard - Dead
Miles - Dead
Frank Lapidus - dead
Ilana - Dead

WTFLocke/Smokey - Becomes Ben
Christian Shepherd - ... Already dead
Mr. Paik - Dead

Charlie (the son of Desmond and Penny) - Lives off the island
Aaron - Lives off the island
Ji Yeon - Lives off the island

Vincent - Dead

[XemaSab]

10. I like the way you think

:D

[Bucky]

28. You just couldn't be more wrong

Sun is not a candidate (her husband is, not her - her name isn't Kwon, it's Paik)

Hurley is totally dead meat. The original description for the character was "red shirt". If he does live, he's the new Jacob.

Jack dies, but Kate & Sawyer live. You can't kill Kate (the fans want it too bad) and you can't kill both Jack and Sawyer (just like you can't kill both Hurley and Miles). Major plot twist: Kate ends up with Miles instead of Sawyer.

Rose and Bernard are already dead

[Ohio Joe]

30. I'm sticking by my picks

Just because someone was originally scheduled for something means nothing. They have made plenty of adjustments through the series and I think lots is/was up in the air till the last minute.

The only ones I might waver on are Rose and Bernard... They may turn out to be Adam and Eve.

[Taverner]

12. I've given up on LOST and you can't suck me back in!!

NOOOOO!!!!

I will submerge myself into 3 seasons of Torchwood instead!

[LynneSin]

13. My vote - in the end we find out that it was Bobby Ewing just having a dream

:hide:

[Tommy_Carcetti]

14. Wasn't Sayid already in the Dead Pool?

Only to come back to life two hours later?

[XemaSab]

16. Ben was too

:D

[Bucky]

29. Ben was dipped in the pool when he was dying and the pool wasn't "cloudy"

When the pool was cloudy, the beast got Sayid. When it was clear in the 80s, then Jacob got Ben.

[JonLP24]

15. They will all die eventually

That's life isn't it? Oh you mean while they are on the island? Oh I have no idea never seen the show. :)

[The Wielding Truth]

18. I think they are cured using the experimental mind connection therapy.

They all live and are now sane.

[MadBadger]

20. Well, I think Claire and Sayid are dead already, soooo....

And I think Rose and Bernard are Adam and Eve

[XemaSab]

22. I haven't given up hope that Claire and Sayid can come back

Will they? No. :P

[quakerboy]

23. yes

[MilesColtrane]

24. My guesses:

Jack Lives
Kate Lives
Hurley Lives
Sawyer Dies
Sayid Dies
Jin Lives
Sun Lives
Claire Dies
Bernard Lives
Rose Lives
Walt Lives

Desmond Lives
Penny Lives
Widmore Dies

Ben Dies
Richard Dies
Miles Dies
Frank Lapidus Lives
Ilana Dies

WTFLocke/Smokey Dies
Christian Shepherd Dies
Mr. Paik Lives

Charlie (the son of Desmond and Penny) ?
Aaron Lives
Ji Yeon Lives

Vincent Lives

[Bucky]

25. First off, Rose & Bernard are already dead. Vincent has been sabotaging the survivors since season 1

God, I hope that dog dies. Go back and watch old episodes. In the mini podcast episodes they make it known that the first "person" Smokey sought out as an ally, right after having possessed Christian's body, was Vincent. Vincent tried to stop Walt from leaving on the raft. Vincent cleverly lured Shannon to her death, then tricked Ana Lucia into pulling the trigger. I think Michael and Ben alone are the only people who've racked up a bigger body count than Vincent -- and that might change too if my "pet" theory about who killed all the Ajira crash survivors turns out to be true. So fuck Vincent, he needs to die.

As for the rest...

Safely alive at the end of the show:
Because they don't matter any more, Desmond and Penny and their kid, Mr & Mrs Paik, Aaron, Ji Yeon, that stewardess chick who joined the Others, Walt (I think his good-bye cameo was in Season 5)

Because the fans would freaking kill them if they died, Jin & Sun, and for different reasons Miles (he and Hurley are comic relief and you can't kill off both of your Sancho Panzas).

Because it's television, Claire, Kate, and Lapidus


Dead at the end of the show:
Because the purposes of television justice demand it, Charles Widmore, Smokey

Because they're, duh, already dead, Bernard & Rose, Christian

Because after they finish his story arc, he's basically a red shirt, Richard

Because he was originally designed to be a red shirt: Hurley (see the Season One extras disc feature on the show's origins)

Because they've been wanting to kill him since the pilot: Jack

Making noble sacrifices will be Ben, Sayid & Ilana (who only got introduced because the producers realized they didn't have single noble female character on the show)


I have no idea:
Sawyer, because I think artistically he's suffered enough and has shown himself to be the most determined survivor... but this show has never flinched from killing off someone when it might serve up a dramatic punch. I give his chances at 75% for survival. Make that 85% because they won't kill both Jack AND Sawyer and Jack totally has to die.

[XemaSab]

33. So you think the 'claimed' people

are capable of recovery?

[Bucky]

37. Just Claire, not Sayid

I'm really going out on a limb here. I'm betting for sentimental reasons the cute blonde girl will be saved, fully aware of what this island has done to cute blonde girls heretofore (e.g., Shannon, Libby, Juliet). Essentially, I'm betting against the house. But Damon & Carl seem to be big fans of Kate and I don't think they'd send her back to the island for the expressed purpose of rescuing Claire just to turn around and make it a failed mission. At the end of the day, this is still American television and thus someone's got to be goddamn redeemed. I say it's Claire.

Sayid? He's toast.

As long as I'm putting dead money on the line, I'll say at least one other candidate, either Jin or Hurley, will be claimed by the Smokester before the end of May. If it's Hurley, he dies. If it's Jin, he lives. In fact, I'll put even money on, if Hurley dies, it's Jack who pulls the trigger.

How about them apples?

[XemaSab]

32. Welcome to DU!

:hi:

[XemaSab]

34. Two predictions:

Ben will be 100% vindicated, and becoming Jacob's candidate is like winning the lottery. And by that I mean 'The Lottery."

[jesus_of_suburbia]

35. I won't read anything in this thread... I just wanted to say that "Lost" is one of the best shows

of all time.


I would love to have another thread discussing "Lost" after the finale.

[XemaSab]

36. For real

I am not interested in spoilies, I just suspect the "predictions" will be amusing after the finale.
