The coffin seems to be freakishly small, for what's it worth. I didn't notice the first time around, but re-watching it today it looks like it's got to be someone fairly short.

Yeah, I noticed it when I re-watched, too. I thought it might be something to do with the camera angles. Some people are saying it's Walt. I don't know, could Locke have had his legs amputated?
Another thing I noticed the second time around was Charlie crossing himself at the end. That really got to me.

I've seen that, too, but the name doesn't mean anything to me.

Bentham, like Locke and Hume, was a British philosopher. He's most famous as one of the founders of Utilitarian moral theory. His body is preserved in a chair at one of the Universities in London, kind of like Jacob.

I also think that Locke is the man in the coffin. If Jack is now desperately trying to go back to the island, Locke would have been a really important ally, he is very in-tune with the island and surely would have wanted to go back more than anybody else. But the more important thing is that obviously Jack thinks that he did Locke wrong by getting him rescued. Learning that he died could well have been the last straw in making him suicidal.
And Locke really doesn't have anyone to attend his funeral, does he?
As to why the coffin is that short, I don't know. But I have a feeling that next season is going to be really, really depressing. Jack on his way to that sorry state we saw him at. Hurley's bad luck will probably come back. So will Rose's cancer. Locke, if taken off the island, is going to be devastated. One winner, for sure, is going to be Sun, her baby will probably be born all right. By the way, if that is true, wouldn't hers be the first baby conceived on-island that didn't die before birth? That would make it quite special, wouldn't it? Maybe he'll be born particularly powerful. Or particularly weak. Or both. Something to do with the baby would probably really motivate Sun and Jin to want to go back...

Hm...I can't see Locke actually leaving though. And he would probably have his former lover from Season One show up at his funeral (in theory). What was her name?

I'm still not convinced Locke left with the rest of the team. After he fails to stop Jack you see him turn around and slink off. I assumed he'd be the one to resist rescue (like Rousseau) and just hide out in the jungle. I don't think the island would let them find John if he didn't want to be found.

The idea of the flashforward is certinly interesting - especially since they've said that they're planning an ending. I wonder if we'll see more of those next season? It wouldn't surprise me if we catch up to that flash forward by next season's end and that the show will actually involve a smaller group of castaways getting back to the island for some reason.
Now about Charlie -- *why* did he have to close the door? I can see maybe protecting Des from the explosion, but once the room was filling he could've opened it (well, maybe not with the prssure, but they could've tried). It probably would've taken an hour for the entire station to flood. They had scuba gear. Heck they swam their on their own, they could've just swam out. It makes no sense to me.

if the show decides to take the castaways off the island so that they can go back( for what reason i have no idea, regardless of jacks beliefs)they dont have to call the show lost anymore, they can call RETURN TO GILIGAN'S ISLAND
If the castaways leave the island only to decide they MUST go back, then they are no longer lost and therefor no point to continue. Thats the Series Finale!
