Well I believe that the final season will begin with the '77 Losties back on the beach, and that the white light HAD to be another time flash (I have something to back this up). I also believe something happened during the flash to contain the energy underneath the Swan, and that the nuke was not a dud, but as stated in another theory posted here (can't remember which, sorry, I'll edit and give credit if I can) the energy was instead continually contained and moderately released by pressing the button, until the time of the Swan implosion in which the energy was weak enough so as not to destroy the whole island (but I don't have anything to back this up, just a belief).
Now for the good part... I'll leave it short and sweet.
There are many subtle clues and foreshadowing in Lost, to me this is obviously one for a couple reasons.
I went to the ABC site to watch a couple season 5 episodes and noticed episodes 12- the finale were all up- except for episode 14, "The Variable," in which Daniel Faraday comes back on the sub from Ann Arbor. I believed this episode had a vital clue to SOMETHING, ANYTHING in Season 6 because it wasn't on the site (very oddly) so I watched it thoroughly. I noticed this line in my rewatch and it stood out very plainly to me. It's the scene where all the '77 Losties and Freighter Crew are in Sawyer and Juliet's house in Dharmaville meeting about what to do.
Sawyer (To Jack as he walks out): When you realize you've made a huge mistake, we'll be back at the beach, right where we started.
I really believe this was meant to sound like he meant they would meet on the beach in '77, but was really used as a device to tell their fate after the finale.
