As for whether or not Christian is any more real in the finale than in the first episodes, we receive a straightforward explanation as to why he appears in the island timeline, and a straightforward explanation as to why he appears in the finale. Seems difficult to debate.

I think a lot of the resistance to your theory is coming from the fact, as the creators insisted throughout the run of the series, Lost was a character-based show. The mythology of the island and the genre elements were a lot of fun, but the characters were meant to be the main event.

If the entirety of the series is taking place in Jack's head, it negates the importance of the very large cast; including the favorite characters of many (if not most) of the viewers. Further, a major thematic concern of the series is the dichotomy of "us vs. them," and the manner in which this breaks down given familiarity with those around us -- naturally, this theme cannot exist if all is within Jack's mind. Finally, the series presentation of the afterlife in season 6 is entirely based on the idea that what is most important in life is those around us ("nobody does it alone"), and that we should embrace others, no matter what that circumstances are that bring us together.

You mentioned an interest in the literary traditions Lost mentions; you might be interested in Edward Said's literary criticism, in particular his work on "Orientalism". This concerns the creation of an "Other," the implications of which should be clear with regard to its relation to the series, and a vital thematic element which must be negated if all is within Jack's head.

Sidebar: thanks for taking the time to continue the discussion here. Even though I disagree with your theory, the discourse surrounding the show always has been (and continues to be) the best thing about the series, and a large part of what makes it so worthwhile.

Hi guys, I would recommend a great solar lights seller on Amazon I have bought and used for years since It is time to get new beautiful solar lights for your yard. The seller is also a 15 years solar lighting manufacturer.

Here is a beautiful Solar post lights on Amazon I like best:

Great book by Alan Sepinwall about the shows (several already mentioned in this thread) of the last decade and a half transforming TV. An educated look at your favorites, and perhaps an introduction to a couple that you haven’t watched yet.
The Revolution Was Televised: The Cops, Crooks, Slingers, and Slayers Who Changed TV Drama Forever

I guess it's the university background (I have an MA in Film and Media Studies), so I am just much used to the written form and the way you cite bibliography that way. It's also a comment to Reetae, that there's still a lot of LOST-related litterature that would be valuable. The author Pearson Moore wrote big and though-provoking analysis on the show: Here are the books on Amazon, or Reading Lost that was written by several professors.

However, it's still a good point you are making. Someone else made that suggestion to me about turning the paper into a script. I am not done with the last two parts, so when they are both finished, I think I might turn it into an audio book and edit them into videos.

As a smoker, I get a huge kick out of this one. http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B002S78NDO

The related posters are good too.

You might be interested in the book Ultimate Lost and Philosophy. This came out after the show ended, so don't mistake it for the one that came out in 2007. I haven't read either book, but I read Mad Men and Philsophy and plan to get this one. It might be up your alley; looks like you can read the first chapter for free.

A few years ago I read a fun and fascinating book, Nicholas Meyer's The View from the Bridge: Memories of Star Trek and a Life in Hollywood. Meyer directed Wrath of Khan, and something which caught my eye was a chapter about having to do reshoots of some scenes because some producer or other didn't like the original footage.

Meyer talks about what a nightmare it was to reshoot, and how noticeable the reshoots were in the final cut. Part of the problem was that in movies, sets and props rapidly get decommissioned, boxed up, moved around, repurposed etc. And that's in an ongoing film under production, much less a TV show that ended almost a decade ago.

Then there's the "Enterprise effect," where Star Trek Enterprise was set in the past from TOS, but ended up looking more... futuristic. It's just part of prequel production hell.

While I agree that it can be done, this is the thing. I wonder how many potential viewers are interested in the Dharma Initiative as a historical artifact - a research program which took place in a particular time, place and context - and are instead interested in the minutiae of stations, retro jumpsuits, and pseudo-science.

Many of the details will vary, and that niche of the audience probably won't be happy.

Grab this. It is over 1,000 pages. Worth every penny. http://www.amazon.com/Walking-Dead-Compendium-One/dp/1607060760

I dig it! Don't take this the wrong way, it's just an observation...but it reminds me of a RealFeel practice pad: https://www.amazon.com/RealFeel-Evans-Practice-Pad-Inch/dp/B000FT9ZIO

Maybe this one?

I had a textbook in college called If It's Purple, Someone's Gonna Die.
