Every time I watch these, I cant help but cry. This show touched me in so many ways

Yeah, I'm sure it's the onions here too, Ben. Such an amazing series.

I wonder if this is what happens when you die. It's like it's real life again, then you meet the people you spent the most of your life with during a series of events, then you all realizes you had a life before and you get the flashes.

The best character in the series although he isn't like a hero character but doesn't matter when acting counts. My favourite character Benjamin Linus

Yeah me too

I never thought I would feel sorry for him, but I do.

It would've been pretty cool to see Ben remembering his time at Hugo's side as the new Jacob & Richard. They were the island guardians for possibly hundreds of years before going into the afterlife.

I love how he flashes back to a part from The New Man In Charge at 0:40

Plot twist - it really was just the onions

Michael is easily in the top 2 actors on the show

Mike went from annoying to awful.

If you had included fewer “flashback” scenes, many people would have believed this was one of the remembrance scenes from the show. There was a scene that was cut where Ben remembers while looking through pictures of Alex’s sideways life. Michael Emerson talked about it in an interview.

ben was one of my best characters WoW i miss lost R.I.P lost :)

Not far off. Although it was cut, Emerson filmed a scene where he looks through a scrapbook of Alex on the table & remembers. That might have been the reason he is crying in that scene. This would have been better had it only included scenes of Alex & her mom.

He undertook a long and complex path of redemption, he started being a bad character then turning into a kinda good one. Locke wasnt a saint, be careful, he caused the death of Boone to pursue its mystical theories, and didnt really hesitate when somebody was on his way (he hit Sayid trying to make the radio work), he killed Naomi cold blood, he proclamed himself leader of the ones who weren't intended to leave the island on the freighter and didnt act in a very democratic way that time either.

Such an amazing character!

Its actually weird but ben is literally my favorite character cause he mind his own business and he is really cute in the same time . Also he is the smartest

Mind his own business?!? I disagree. I also thought John was more intelligent, but its close.

ben remembers the onions :) how wonderful lost can be

According to Michael Emerson, Ben was supposed to be flipping through a yearbook and was supposed to focus on a picture of Alex which would've caused him to remember, I would've like to see that scene. Great job though, it looks really good.

In that middle space it would be a hard pill to remember all the terrible things I’d done in life.

0:44. Juliette. Wow. It's funny how this video only shows Ben acting nice and not him strangling, shooting and torturing people. Lol, imagine if that was a part of his remembering. But anyway, I think this is the way this video should have been. Good job.

It's the onions guys, don't worry.

At 40 seconds in the flashback is a part from that small 10 minute episode the new man in charge!

@AnimeLuver88 Go to the entertainment weekly sight and search for the Totally Lost videos. Look for video 7 of the Totally Lost series finale and he begins to talk about that scene around 1:15. I tried to post a link to the site but it wouldn't go through

I like how you had his memories end on not a joyous memory but, in his view, the worst decision he ever made. Showing how he “woke up” but is still not ready to move on and still has much to atone for.

He also had so many of his hand-picked followers die, or be killed on his orders, that maybe if he cared for them, he needs to help them move on too.

miles was a interesting character... he knew followed instinct to stay alive, being selfish or not.

Yes, he was! Come on, he was great!!

I agree with you. Emerson was one of the three best characters ever. Along with Locke and Mikhail Bakunin.

Ben: Hm... good times. *Denouncing Alex, murdering Locke and his dad, killing.* Ben: Of course I'll have to purge some things...

Exactly!! I totally agree with you! =D

@keithalanjohnson That was just a flash, though. Like the many Jack had before he finally remembered everything.

Small but extremely good.

This should include Rousseau telling Ben that he's the closest thing Alex has ever had to a father. Thats the trigger for his awakening. Minan3, Ben doesn't move on because he has a chance to help Alex and make peace with her. Definitely some religous themes later on in the show, but very careful to be non-denominational and not "preachy". I like it and I have no interest in religion.

The actor's name is Michael Emerson

@Tehui1974 I believe he does & that's why he decides not to "move on" w/ everyone else in the church. I read someone's intrpretation that he wasn't ready to "let go" but I don't think that's it at all. I think he def. remembers what he's done & realizes he needs more time in the "sideways world" to work through that "karma" he's created if you will. It's precisely b/c his character has grown so much that he's able to see this, that he needs more time to come to terms w/ who he was.

Best acting in lost was from Locke, Ben and Jack the rest is a tossup and is debatable, but honestly, I would put Kate next and then Desmond

Why did Ben get a longer video than John Locke??

@warrickgirl37 where did michael emerson say this?

@yowyOw69 Who said redemption has to be confined to Abrahamic religious beliefs?

@Gigi8877 My interpretation is that Ben remembers what he did to people too. I'm not sure if he felt he wasn't ready to 'move on', my read is that he hasn't atoned for what he did. Although Locke forgave him for killing him, and although Ben's decision to put Alex's academic aspirations ahead of his own career was worthy, it means very little compared to what he did. The guy was responsible for killing the entire dharma initiative. I suspect he will be in limbo for all time.

He was a collaborator in that, as well as being directly responsible for his father's death. But only challenged Widmore's decision to kill Danielle and her baby. Perhaps his atonement will be to help his followers "move on" who died under his command.

It always bothered me that Ben never got a remembering scene, though like most everybody I believed that scene was when he fully remembered.

@Mozee854

He did. It was of Desmond beating the shit out of him.

Based on your theory.

Look, im an atheist and i dont believe thats is a religious show at all. Lost talks about life, death, the choices we made, the people we decide to follow and who we choose to left, it talks about memories and hopes, redemption and revenge, love or hate, the paths that we take and those we avoid to walk in... Its really HUGE, so its easy to view almost everything.

@yowyOw69 kinda went similar to BSG (battlestar galactica)...from classic space sci fi to religious thing at the end...idk if they are doing it like that so they can touch the public more or just they can't pull an ending. Tho Lost still is my fav and BSG 2nd fav show ever...but still i think they could pulled it off without it.

When Ben was 14 he was brought to the temple (mortally injured) & drowned in the pool-dead when he was removed from it. The island then gave him back his life but with strings attached. Ben lost his innocence with his life & forever belonged to the island which must have made him crazy when he was forced to leave. Given the fact that the island controlled him so much -was he culpable for his sins? I bet Jacob set Ben up to kill him just like Jacob set up Locke to die. -pawns in Jacob's game.

Yes...Ben was a total self-serving, ego-maniacal SOB. He tortured Jack, Kate and Sawyer just to get Jack to do surgery on him. He messed with John from the get go because he envied John's deep connection to Island. And...he's the one that caused the Island's location to get disclosed; he gaslighted John about he did NOT press the button and nothing happened. This cause John to prevent Eko from pressing the button, the event caused Widmore's Freighter and Keamy et al to find the Island. All those people who died as result rest on Ben. He's full on at fault for his pettiness.

haha very clever, good job.

@smillar98 Not relgious. Spiritual. There's a difference. This show revolves around ancient spiritual beleifs originating from india.

lost is a good show , but i am sure too many people are LOST to underestand this show . if i was the writer i would take the stupid stuff out of the show and make it simple like a plane crashes on an island the survivers are trying to survive while there are OTHERS and finally after along time they find there way out . instead of stupid smoke,jaycob, and going back to 1972 2001 2006 back to 1972 or make a fake crash and buy dead bodies and put them in the plane to cover the orriginal crash .

According to the showrunners, Widmore was responsible for both mass murders not Ben. Widmore gave the orders for the Dhrama purge (they deserved it having invaded the island and then violated the treaty with the natives) and then the Ajira passengers that were killed. Ben killed his father on his birthday. It was probably a test Widmore conceived of. Jacob had picked Ben as next leader and Widmore was jealous.

The author of the channel, www.youtube.com/@LOSTEXPLAINED108 says it was the Smoke Monster/Man in Black who teleported over to Hydra Island during one of his absences and did the deed. There's also the suggestion that he's lost so much of his empathy for other people, that if he ever got off the island he would go on a murderous rampage, using his powers to slaughter every person in the world.

Ben did not kill the DI. Widmore did. Widmore was the leader then not Ben. As for Alex if Ben had handed himself over to Keamy -Keamy still would have killed Alex. Remember he told the Capt of the Kahana he was going to torch the island. The only person Widmore couldn't kill was Ben so once he was in custody the rest were going up in smoke. Widmore was angry Ben had protected Alex from him when she was an infant. He couldn't kill Ben but he could make him miserable.

It wasn’t the purgatory. Just a place they all made together to find themselves, to remember and let go.

So?

The thing I like about LOST is that the miraculous events that take place can be explained as either religious or scientific depending on how you look at it. You could say that this alternate world is either a "purgatory" type of place where souls are sent after death before crossing over, or simply just that their consciousnesses existing in another plane of reality where they experience a shared dream that is so vivid it seems real. I'm going with the scientific view on it.

Benjamin Linus is the most beaten character in TV history

Its not that complex the show, come on! Just watch it paying attention to the plot!

And if you did that, you would have another predictable, overused and basically pointless show. Those things are what made Lost so great. There are all of these random, and usually ridiculous, events happening, but at the end of the day the show is all about being human. So much of the character connection happened because they're reacting like you or I would - with total uncertainty.

Good for a fake

Umm, praising ben? praising a serial killer? really? the only erason he does nice things is to use people, he helped sun because he wanted to manipulate her to kill jack and sawyer, Plz use some common SENSe

I jjust dont like how he talks, if he wants to be taken as a legitimate threat, he needs to stop talking the way he does and talk like a regular person. sounds like his voice is cracking when he talks..

Ben is the worst character on lost, EVER
