I knew they were never going to answer all the questions. It became more and more obvious as time went on that they didn't even have answers to the mysteries.
But even as the "makeup as we go along" thing became crystal clear, I never stopped believing that in the end, they would tell us what the island was. Is, "the island is a cork" really the closest we're going to get to an answer? This was a cop-out of epic proportions. If they were going to pull a cop out, they did it in the most lovely way possible. But seriously, EPIC cop-out.
Edit:
Ok, so I've been reading around theories and interpretations online and people seem to be mighty confused about what happened. But it seemed pretty clear to me? Island stuff really happened, they all eventually died and "created" a place in the afterlife to help find each other so they could help each other move on. Right?
Also they apparently offered Eko a hefty sum to return for the finale but he wanted 5 times that amount and so he was yanked from the finale. What a bitch move! Greedy! No explanation about why Walt didn't come back, but I assume it's cause they didn't want to deal with the weirdness of having a totally grown up Walt when they kept Aaron as a baby.
