OK. I just watched the end of the end again and I think I get it this time..... Everything on the island was real but the whole alternate reality thing was actually a post-death, pre-heaven, outside-of-time construct designed to help them come to terms with everything that had happened and prepare them for what was to come. Did I get it right!?!?

Yeah everything that had happened on the island happened but the alt reality was just like Purgatory waiting for all of them to be there so that they can move on. (heaven)
Apparently with the complete blu ray collection coming out in august there will be an extra 20min of footage of what happened after jack died, (hurley &ben on the island) possibly other people.

That's cool. I still need to look up the Jimmy Kimmel thing they had afterwards with all the interviews and the several alternate endings that they claimed they were gonna show. I missed it... It was cool that they did imply lots of things that happened afterwards... like Hurley & Ben. Hmmm... Was the plane that Jack saw the plane everyone was using to escape or another plane getting pulled to the island? It was interesting how they only half resolved the Jack/Kate/Sawyer/Julliette love square. Apparently Sawyer and Julliette were suppossed to be together but in their actual lives Jack and Julliette both died and Sawyer ended up escaping the island with Kate.... + in their dream reality Jack was married to/ had a kid with Julliette... Which reminds me of all the people who got totally screwed: #1 Jack & Julliette's son who apparently never really existed. #2 Sun and Jin's kid who grew up an orphan after they romantically drowned together on the submarine. #3 Sayid's girlfriend from Iraq who either got to get murdered or passed off to his dipshit brother... just so he could forget all about her as soon as he ran into that spoiled ho-bag Shannon. I thought she was supposed to get hooked up with her brother anyway... and last but not least... The Smoke Monster- who never even got a real name, got lied to, imprisoned, betrayed, had everyone he cared about murdered, got turned into a smoke monster, and then finally got killed himself.... all without ever getting to see the world outside the island which is all he ever wanted. DAMN YOU JAKOB AND THAT LADY FROM THE WEST WING!!!!!

I'm with you on the smoke monster Cat. I was actually rooting for Jacob's brother to get off the island. Its not his fault his mother was nuts and had to stay in that dreaded island. Damn Jacob that mamas boy! Anyways, watch the Kimmel special it helps explain the story a little better. Oh and the alternate endings are not real. Its just Kimmel making up joke skits. Not bad, but I was pissed because that's the only reason I watched the special in the first place. Oh well, I gotta go I have a plane to catch. Kinda weird I've never heard of the airlines. Oceanic? Hmm
