Continuity mistake: When Kate and Danielle are talking about Alex down by the river, in most shots Kate's hair is hanging down in front of her shoulder. But in one or two shots, her hair is behind her shoulder without her touching her hair or moving her head. (00:08:45)
Continuity mistake: When John is playing chess, we see him make a move, followed by the computer making a move. It's now John's move, but when he makes his move, all the pieces are in different positions. The screen is in shot all the time, and we don't see him make another move explaining the moved pieces. (00:28:00)
Visible crew/equipment: When John looks through the binoculars at the start, it reflects 2 big white squares which, considering they are in the jungle looking at a blue/rust coloured building, it appears to be part of the filming equipment. Perhaps a light screen? (00:06:20)
Tricia Tanaka is Dead - S3-E10
Revealing mistake: When the VW bus is driving down the hill, in a few shots, Charlie is missing from inside the VW. (00:34:50)
Tricia Tanaka is Dead - S3-E10
Continuity mistake: In the VW bus, Charlie says "Victory or death." He has his hand raised in one shot but not in the second angle. (00:34:10)
Flashes Before Your Eyes - S3-E8
Visible crew/equipment: Just after returning from the pub, Des gets changed and opens his wardrobe. Behind him is a mirror that reflects part of the camera man. (00:23:30)
Flashes Before Your Eyes - S3-E8
Continuity mistake: When Desmond is running out of the water with Claire, her strap top is down by her elbow. Camera cuts and it's back on her shoulder. (00:04:05)
Continuity mistake: After getting out of the hole in the woods, the lady has her hair covering her ear in one shot and not in another, and this keeps switching through the scene. (00:15:40)
Continuity mistake: When Sawyer is given the heart rate monitor watch, the position of the watch face on his wrist differs when he is getting up. (00:15:30)
Continuity mistake: When John wakes up, the right-hand side of his head is covered in blood, both fresh and dried. When he's looking at Ecko's stick, his head has no blood on it. Fresh or dried. (00:02:40)
Continuity mistake: At the meeting, Jack's dad puts his hand on Jack's shoulder. When the shot changes, his hand has been removed. (00:27:40)
Continuity mistake: When Sawyer sees the horse, the horse and the area around the horse are in the sun. When we see a close-up and Kate approaches the horse, it's all in shade. (00:39:40)
Continuity mistake: At the start, we see Ana-Lucia dive into the water to help rescue people. In the close-up shot, her shirt is bunched up into a small band of material around her chest. When we see her from a long shot, her shirt is back to normal. (00:01:20)
Live Together, Die Alone, Part 1 - S2-E23
Continuity mistake: When Des is being released from prison, in one shot he is holding the picture with one hand, and with two in the next shot. (00:05:20)
Live Together, Die Alone, Part 1 - S2-E23
Continuity mistake: When Sayid is praying, his hand positions change between long and close-up shots. (00:40:25)
Chosen answer: None of the main characters died in the plane crash. Many died on the island after the crash (Jack, Charlie, Sun, Jin, Daniel, Juliet, others), some lived on the island for an apparently long time after the crash (Hurley, Ben, Bernard, Rose) but some lived lives off the island after the crash (Sawyer, Kate, Claire, Miles, Aplert, and Lapidus). Remember that Christian tells Jack that "time has no meaning here," (in Purgatory). When everyone meets at the church, they are at the end of their lives however long that may have been and will now "move on" together. They look like they did on the island because that is the way they best remember each other.

That has to be the clearest explanation of the ending I've ever read.
