WE MAY NEVER KNOW WHAT THE MONSTER IS!!!

“Everybody’s fascinated by the mythology, but we actually probably spend more time really discussing the characters,” “Lost” executive producer Carlton Cuse said.
Co-creator Damon Lindelof said the monster has been the most frequent subject of questions about the series. So much so that the writers have developed a rule: Each time they show the smoke monster, they reveal more about its nature.
“Once the show is all said and done, will there still be an interpretive quality to what the monster is? Of course. But that’s not our fault,” Lindelof said. “Because we think we definitively answer questions on the show all the time, and people still go ‘Yeah, but what is it?’ If a guy came walking out of the jungle and said, ‘I’ll tell you exactly what the monster is: It’s this, this, this, this and this,’ the audience would go, ‘Who’s that guy?’ ”
I personally agree with the writers that Lost is a story about the characters, about their lifes, about their seek for redemption,etc. But come on! We want to know what the hell is the freaking monster!!!
What do you guys think? I want to hear your opinion on this!

I agree with you 100% Teejay. They also have to explain how are they so interconnected in the past, for example.
