[spoiler]the scene takes place at a football game between the Gotham rogues and the river city monuments. the national anthem is sung by little child cj cone. then, there is the kickoff. a fictional heinz ward of the rogues catches the ball and runs towards the end zone. he is dodging other players and gets free and the endzone is open for a touchdown. then, the field is blown up into pieces. (not sure if that batmobile will do this. it is stolen by bane and they showed one example of it blowing up one bomb.) banes henchmen come in and keep anybody from running. the whole field is a huge crater except for one section where bane appears. he is dragging a huge ball of some sort behind him. (it was real hard to understand him ) he mentions this is an instrument of your liberation (or demolition). then his henchmen drag in a person and he asks him too introduce himself. they do something which was unrecognizable from a distance. the guy they dragged in falls to the ground. [/spoiler]
im excited.

I got to be a part of the "Heinz field" extra shooting that took place yesterday. Really big scene took place.
They didn't have us sign a nondisclosure form or anything, just release forms. So, if anybody wants me to posts pictures or spoilers, I will happily oblige.
I won't if you guys are totally against it.

You guys are missing the entire point/theme of the series.
The message was, "move on."
Think about it.
Sayid felt awful about not saving Nadia in the past. In purgatory, he saves her.
Hurley feels guilty about all the bad things the money has done him, in the purgatory, he made it work.
Sawyer started talking about his "Sawyer" problems with other people.
Jin and Sun finally got not have a parent-less daughter.
But, my favorite of all is that Jack moved on with his weight with his dad by becoming a better father.
They all needed to "move on."
And I think that's what everybody needs to do. Get over it. And stop worrying about it. Be content with what was given to us.
/thread.

I read this after the finale and it made me like the show a lot more:
Never before has a TV breakup hurt so much...and left us blubbering like such idiots.
Tonight we Lost fans lost our "Constant." The show we connected with on such a soul-grippingly deep level for six years, it feels as if we haven't lost a TV series, but a true friend.
So did the series finale live up to expectations? And what did it all mean? Let's dig in...
One glance at Twitter, Facebook etc. tonight and you'll see that the fans are divided on Lost's final episode. Some loved it, some hated it and some are still trying to figure out what the bejeezus happened. I'm most definitely in the first camp: LOVED IT, as tonight's finale was perhaps the most emotionally gratifying series ender of all time. Damon and Carlton gave us exactly what they promised--resolution on the things that mattered most to the characters.
Jack, Kate, Locke, Desmond, Sawyer, Juliet, Claire, etc. all ended up in a happy place...but what exactly was that place?
WHAT WE LEARNED
The Sideways World Was a Passage to "The Light": Charlie's (Dominic Monaghan) iconic question from the very first episode--"Guys, where are we?"--came full circle tonight, as Jack Shepard (Matthew Fox) asked that very Q of his father Christian Shepard in Lost's epic final scene.
Jack: Where are we? Christian: This is a place you all made together so you could find one another...Nobody does it all alone. You needed them and they needed you. Jack: For what? Christian: To remember and to let go.
Obviously, precisely "where" these characters were were going will be long debated, but for what it's worth, here's my take: Damon and Carlton told the truth when they said the island was not purgatory. It wasn't, and what happened there happened, and everyone was alive.
However, the Sideways world was a post-death place of limbo where Jack was waiting until he was ready to "let go" and cross over to The Light, which is basically Lost's form of Heaven. The Losties who appeared in the church at the end all died at different times in different places (some much later on) but came together in that space to help Jack move on.
But it wasn't only about helping Jack. The Losties all gathered in the church to cross over to The Light because Jack saved that very Light when he rescued the island. As we were told this season, if The Light "goes out here, it goes out everywhere" and "everyone you love would simply cease to be." If the Light had gone out, the Losties could never have reconnected with their loved ones again. But because Jack saved it, they all get to live blissfully ever after. The (brilliant) end.
And something you probably caught, but just in case: Throughout the season, the blood that appeared on Jack's neck was an indication that Jack was already dead/dying and on his way to "another life, brotha." (A little Sixth Sense-ish.)
So What Is Lost's "Heaven?" It's "Light"...And That Other "L Word": Lesbians! (I keed.) Boss Damon Lindelof told me several weeks back that Lost is, at its very core, a LOVE story. "Always has been. Always will be." And tonight, as each set of "Constants" reconnected iand moved toward The Light--Sun and Jin, Charlie and Claire, Jack and Kate, Juliet and Sawyer--we saw that heaven is, indeed, being with the one(s) you love. It made for some of the most spine-tingingly romantic scenes ever seen on television.
Jack Was Supposed to Die--From the Very Beginning: "There was an early version of the script in which my chracter was killed off in the first or second act," Matthew Fox told me way back at Lost's first premiere party. Jack was to be a guest star such as--can you picture this?--Michael Keaton. So instead they let us invest for six seasons only to find out that it was all about Jack's death after all?! Gaaaah! Of course, we should have seen it coming the second Rose told Jack in the season opener: "It's OK. You can let go."
On Kimmel tonight, Matthew Fox backed up Jimmy's theory that Jack's island experience was real, and really happened (Christian Shepard also told him so), but the final season (and the Sideways world) was Jack's "test" to determine whether he would go toward the light or...not.
"There's room for interpretation based on your spiritual beliefs," Matthew said. That would explain the stained-glass window in the church with all of the major religions of the world represented--and the donkey wheel. We gotcha, Darlton! Very on the nose.
"I knew that the final image would be [Jack's] eye," Matthew told Kimmel. "And I knew that he would die."
But did you know that Vincent would lie down next to Jack to keep him company while he passed over? Cause JESUS that was a tearjerker. So well done.
Hurley Got to Be the New Jacob! Yes, Jack fulfilled his destiny by drinking the wine, replugging the cork down in the light cave and saving the island (and everyone we love), but it was Hurley who ended up as the next protector of the island. Anyone else choke up as Hurley asked Ben to stick around and help him, finally giving Ben what he wanted all along: a real purpose?
Of course, we should have seen that it would be Hurley, as he is the one true, pure spirit who never once lied to anyone, and carried a simple, but sizeable heart...just like Jacob. To quote that awesome West Wing woman CJ Craig: "It was always you. I see that now."
And by the way, that scene with Jack down at the replugged cork, sobbing as the water and the light started rushing back in, is arguably Matthew Fox's finest work to date.
Even Claire Got a Happy Ending. Kate convincing Claire to get on the plane, and that "no one knows how to be a mother at first, but I'll show you" was certainly one of the most satisfying moments of the finale--at least for this mom. After so much heartbreak--and the recent abandonment of Ji Yoeon--Claire got to go home and be a mother to Aaron, whom we were told long ago should not be raised by another. And Kate got to stay close to the boy she raised for three years. Nice.
WHAT LIES AHEAD
Damon Lindelof just tweeted what he has said will be his last words about Lost: "Remember. Let go. Move on. I will miss it more than I can ever say."
Clearly, it's the message the producers would like us to carry from tonight. And though the debates will rage on over what Lost was about, why Kate ended up with Jack and not Sawyer, and why Josh Holloway runs like a girl (kidding...sorta), I think we all can agree that Lost was ground-breaking television unlike anything we've seen before--or will probably ever see again.
Lost, you will be sorely missed. Thanks for one hell of a ride. Or you know, whatever you want to call that dark place.
Please check back later to see my answers to lingering questions such as the Man in Black's name (yes, he had one), what happened to Walt and more, plus reactions from me and the fans--straight from my Lost finale party tonight.

I did not watch this. Can someone explain in one sentence the gyst of the finale? Cause I've googled a bit and it seems like the rest of the internet can't.
Jack saves the "Light" of the island by killing smokey and then dies; everybody meets FAR INTO THE FUTURE in the sideways "purgatory" world where the LIGHT that Jack saved is there to take them to the next step of death.

I liked how they insulted us by showing us at the end what the entire episode was trying to tell us.
Yeah, we figured it out. We can piece things together. That's what we're supposed to do and have been doing the past six years.

I think you either buy the idea that they are all pulled together by some kind of gravity or you don't. Four of them working or going to the same school doesn't seem like much of a stretch.
I would have been more convinced that she could have been a transfer student from France. But, Danielle was strictly french.
