Which scenes made you cry? (LOST finale spoilers)

[RoJoHen]

I have to admit, I'm a huge sap when it comes to TV shows. I get weepy-eyed from just about anything. Even so, I couldn't believe how many times I started crying during this frickin' episode.

Scenes of note:

Sun and Jin's awakening, when Juliet did the sonogram. I think the fact that they had died just a couple episodes earlier after being separated for so long really made this one poignant. For several years, the only goal of either of these characters was to be together, and now they finally get to be!

Charlie and Claire. For a character that's been dead for 3 seasons, I can't believe how much I still care for Charlie. I loved the way he broke down when he had awakening.

And of course, Sawyer and Juliet. Holy crap, that was intense. It's the scene we've been waiting for ever since the season premiere, and it did not disappoint.


There was one more scene early in the episode that had me crying, but I can't for the life of me remember what it is at the moment.

I was getting a little watery-eyed when Charlie and Claire woke up. But when Sawyer and Juliet's moment rolled around I totally lost it.

There were a couple other times I was fighting it back a little but I was watching with my girlfriend and felt the need to butch up as much as possible

 

[RoJoHen]

Yeah, I was all alone watching it, so I just let the tears fly.

4 posts in and I think all the bases have already been covered.

I was happy to see Boone again, surprised (not in -entirely- a good way) to see Shannon, glad to see Charlie again, shocked that Lapidus was still alive (less-so Richard), and glad they didn't ultimately stick with the "obvious" choice to replace Jacob...that never really sat well with me.

Oh, I've got two-
Richard's grey hair and his realization that he finally wants to live.
Ben apologizing to Locke, Locke forgiving him, and Hurley and Ben's conversation where Ben acknowledges he still has things he needs to sort out. If you'd asked me in S3 whether I'd ever feel badly about this character I would have laughed and laughed...

The only time I started to get choked up was when Jack was stumbling around the bamboo forest where he first woke up on the island and dropped to the ground. It seemed so final then.

 

[Obiwanshinobi]

too be honest i think i was more choked up prior to the finale watching the recap show. they showed some great stuff from that like the launch of the raft and even the explosion of the freighter with Sun's reaction got me a lil bit too.

As far as the finale goes, i was too engaged on what was going on and still trying to figure out where they were going with the last 20 minutes and for some reason was a little bit confused on what i just watched when it did end. the last shot was very powerful on its own accord, but i couldnt bring myself to cry.

Oh yes, this! And when Vincent ran out and laid down next to him...so much more emotional than I was prepared for!

 

[Brent]

Every reunion scene made me teary eyed, what can I say, I'm an emotional person

I'd say the most powerful though was Charlie and Claire for some reason, that one seemed extra powerful, maybe cause Charlie has been away from her for so long, and we felt that as the audience

 

[RichMerk]

Yup, nothing pushed me closer to the edge than when Vincent lay down next to Jack all sad, man's best friend to the very end.

Despite my protestations about that sappy afterlife crapolla, I'm not made of stone. The longing of humans to see their loved ones in "heaven", is poignant, even if it is hopeless. I bawled like a newborn babe off and on throughout the damn finale! And I got a really sick feeling when Smokey threatened Bernie and Rose. I said to myself, "If he cuts them, I'm turning the damn TV off!"

My biggest weepy moment was a couple of eps before, though, when Sun and Jin died, and Hugo just sobbed openly. I lost it! (No pun intended.)

Pretty much all the "awakening' scenes, especially Jin/Sun and Charlie/Claire. (I know, I'm a sap)

Jack's death.

Pretty much the last 10 minutes of the show.......pretty moving episode....once you let go of needing to know scientifically how the "force" works (midichlorians) and just embrace the struggle these characters went through and what they became to each other the finale ends up being a very moving, magnificent effort.

I cried all through the finale.But what got me was the scene with Jack and Vincent.That's when I knew the show was over.

And of course, Sawyer and Juliet. Holy crap, that was intense. It's the scene we've been waiting for ever since the season premiere, and it did not disappoint.

I had predicted that scene happening based on what happened in the s6 season-opener. However it was played all wrong, I thought. The way they played that scene, I thought that they would pull off each other's clothes and do the dirty right there on the floor.

Looked kinda like the setup scene of a porno. (Not that I've watched a lot of them )

But the ep was simply full of absolutely great sequences - each one of the "realizations"/"wakeups" was beautiful!! Just the golden-hued view of it and the music was just great.

I got misty eyed a few times, but for some reason what really got to me was Hurley's reluctant acceptance of the island protector job.

 

[Evil Twin]

I was actually fine through most of it (felt the reunion flashbacks got kind of repetitive), but it was the moment that Christian said to Jack "How are YOU here?" and it clicked for me that this was the afterlife that the tears started coming and didn't stop for the remainder of the episode. And for the record I haven't cried outright at a series finale since DS9's. Heck, not even Six Feet Under's brought me to tears. So while the finale sort of failed on an intellectual level by leaving so much unanswered, it definitely succeeded on an emotional level in my book.

 

[Yeoman Randi]

Yeah, every single awakening scene made me cry. The light filling the church made me cry. Vincent laying down next to Jack made me cry. And lots of scenes in between made me cry. *sigh* I cried an awful lot that night.

 

[Trippy]

I cried at it all. I cried even harder the second time. The third time, I was blubbering.

I don't think I can watch it for a while...I'm all cried out!

This.

The wife and I cried like little babies towards the end. It was heart wrenching enough to watch Jack dying and going to lay down where he woke up in the first episode but it was a killer when Vincent layed down beside him. Man. I also got real choked up at Charlie and Claires awakenings. It was only then at that point that I realized how much I missed those two being together in the earlier seasons.

I also think part of me was crying at the fact that I knew it was all over and there would be no more Lost. Like someone here said..it was like saying goodbye for good to someone you spent a lot of time with and got real attached to.

 

[Jenee]

Most everything mentioned above made me cry, but two scenes really stuck out - when Charlie looked off the stage and saw Claire - the expression on his face, I cried. and when Vincent lay down next to Jack - heck, I cry now, three days later, every time that scene is mentioned.

 

[auntiehill]

When Jin and Sun found each other, when Jack touched the coffin, when Jack went to lie down where it all started and Vincent came to join him...I even got choked up when Hurley told Sayid, "You know, whether you believe it or not, you're really good person."

I was misty eyed through most of the show!
