I blubbered like a baby last night. Powerful episode.
Spoilers
he has a wife, a loved one, elsewhere. No one on the island is like that.
And then Boone could've been brought back. Jack could've cut off his leg. But no. He just dies.
Are these guys pirates?
****SPOILERS***
i have a feeling the guys who took Walt are the same people Danielle was going to meet at the black smoke, "the others" she's always referring to...
I thought that was pretty obvious. She said "but they said they were coming for the boy", which made the viewer say "oh my" because you knew it was going to be Walt.
I like it when they leave characters in a life-threatening situation at the end of the season. It's obvious that they're trying to figure out whether they want to keep those actors/characters.
As far as the characters... I think they will all be back... I think I heard JJ Abrams saying something about that
Damn its amazing how after 25 episodes they kept so many things... like the freakin monster in the first episode is still a mystery...
so it seems that the creators like Crichtons book Prey
worst acted episode of the whole series.
the hottest female cast of any show..
so yeah as mentioned before, the ppl on the boat are some of 'the others', they're probably living inside the island sumhow, that's where the tunnel goes.
i know americans are famously useless at discerning accents, but whoever hired those stupid actors in the airport to sound australian must be SHOT IN THE NUTS. omg, "dee yee went me to weigh u, deee?" they were horrible even for KIWI accents. the only featured extra who didn't make me laugh my ass off was the guy who told hurly "back o' the loyne". u know what a real australian accent sounds like, right? it sounds like Clare! so it's not like they hav no idea. jesus that was the first thing that sucked.
In other news, isn't Michelle Rodriguez great? Everyone I know thinks so. :yabbse-thumbup:

You know a lot of blind and deaf eunuchs.
I'm excited about the new season... but unless they start answering some questions soon people are gonna get bored... otherwise it will be reduced to jack vs. locke (like before), charlie with his heroin (like before), and more unsolved mysteries (like before) that will make the show suck and people get lost because you dont even know what the fuck is happening to the original plot anymore
with j.j. off doing mi3, will lost suffer an alias like nosedive? macguffin your thoughts....
3) Why would the INSIDE of the hatch door say "Quarantine"... they know they're quarantined, the point of the sign is usually to keep people out.

Unless it's not the people inside that are being quarantined, but the people outside.
I don't know what to make of this at all but i do think that the scottish guy is a good guy with some sort of super natural powers. When Jack first met him he said the surgery was a failure and then the scottish dude was like well what if it just turned out alright? And then it did. How or why he ended up in a hatch on a mysterious island filled with electronics from various decades? i don't know.

This is the logo on Desmond's jumpsuit, and his medicine cabinet, and
the computer, and several places along the walls of the hatch. It's
tough to make out, but some of our brighter minds have discerned that
the company (as this is surely a logo) is called Dharma.
"Dharma is a cosmic principle that is difficult, if not impossible, to
define. Our Dharma is our true place in the cosmic process: in time, in
space, in awareness, in thought, deed and desire. The eternal principle
of Dharma determines the harmonious functions of the cosmic machine. In
order that we fulfil our role in the divine play we must behave within
our Dharma. That is, we ought to do the right thing, at the right time,
In the right way, and for the right reason. By this we attain balance.
To establish balance within ourselves ensures our own welfare and the
welfare of society. And opens the path prepared for us by the divine."
You can also see, in the center of what is a recreation of the I Ching
circle, a swan. I don't think it's too far of a stretch to connect the
dots thusly:
Desmond is a representative of a group that turns spiritual "ugly
ducklings" into "swans". And there you have it, folks, the key to the
entire series.

It's a very cool theory. Or it would be, if it wasn't made up out of whole cloth. There is no such thing as Rousseau's theory of mirrored genes. Somebody (either someone connected with the show or a fan of the show) concocted the whole thing. Fun to read, though!

This was my favorite element of it... I was really pleased that we haven't hardly moved past the end of episode one. In fact I see them doing this in the next episode too, as long as they don't take it to far, I'd dig it.

SPOILERS
Here's my theory: So, the film explained that it's a big experiment, somewhat. I think maybe the island crashed the plane, and that the two groups of people are the experiment. One formed a pseudo-utopia, where it's not entirely hostile. The other group, the tail end of the plane, formed a very hostile group. Maybe a Lord of the Flies thing. They're polar opposite groups. I dunno, that would be a dull way to do it. But maybe it'll be cool.
Yeah, they should have kept the English-speaking thing out of the commercial.
Quote from: matt35mmYeah, they should have kept the English-speaking thing out of the commercial.
Totally disagree... that moment made me go (internally) "WHAT THE FUCK?!?!?!" Which is what I watch this show for... even the fucking "On Next Week's Episode" has cliffhangers!

hmm you're no wizard of menlo park, so i'd say if you actually do know more than the rest of us for some reason, cut it with the spoilers. the idea of rambling on and on about what might be true is fun to read, but you're not doing that. you act like you're somehow in the know, which I don't trust. you are the others right now.
Michelle Rodriguez always sucked, but she is ESPECIALLY annoying now... I really hate that they're going to try to do something between her and Sawyer... so annoying and predictable. I really want Sawyer to kill her like he said.
SPOILERS FOR LOST AND FOR WOLVES OF THE CALLA
If you've read Wolves, maybe you already know what I'm suggesting here.
maybe the others come and demand a new sacrifice every now and again.
Maybe Sawyer and gang are being held to be the next sacrifices.

i don't think u understand what a spoiler is. if someome has seen whatever ur talking about, then obviously nothing is a spoiler to them. a spoiler can only be experienced by those who are not privvy to what u are discussing/showing.
i'm not even reading this thread cos the new season hasn't started here, i've just noticed that u don't seem to understand the notion of a spoiler, a suspicion confirmed by the quote above.
I don't think anyone is going to die in 3 weeks. They just said they'll be "lost forever." My theory: Walt is lost forever...because he is converted to an other.

I guess you missed the spoiler over at aint it cool then.
MacGuffin might only have been half serious, but I am COMPLETELY serious.
so Mac can do all this
and no one gives a damn and i make some comment and its all "shut up, you'll ruin it!!"
Why is everyone such a baby about this show
2. How can yall be so "involved" in the show what all yall talk about is speculation and I have yet to read of anyone following the mythology or the neat little things they throw in (like how Jin said Orange was love and then Sun was drinking Orange juice, or how her name ties in, or how the girl in Orange hooked them up; also the tie-in websites:Hanso foundation, Mr. Clucks website) that the creators have thrown out there for us to follow.
4. MacGuffin:Because I gave a fair warning that what you read below will be a Spoiler if you haven't seen that episode.
Well I did that a few pages back and Pubrick jumped on my ass that I didnt know what a spoiler was and I posted a statement much like yours. So I guess everyone is out to get me.
Sorry if we don't discuss in geeky detail things you find at a "Locke Shoots First"-type website.
Just because we don't talk all the hidden bits and such, doesn't mean we don't see or know about them.
If want to bring them up, that's fine, but what you are continuing to do is spoil future episodes.
Umm, no. What you did was give away, without any warning, a piece of story bit for an episode that hadn't aired yet.
i dont like them telling us that someone will die in 3 weeks
Oh thats right, you guys dont discuss anything in geeky detail.
Sorry if we don't discuss in geeky detail things you find at a "Locke Shoots First"-type website.
Well how about bringing them up, that would bring more discussion about things that really happened and less about what might happen.
If want to bring them up, that's fine.
Umm, yes. What I did was post a pic saying that it was a spoiler to those who had not seen the episode, and that was after the episode had aired.
I know my big mistake was the comment about Bernard...

seriously...i mean lets talk about last nights episode.
I am now dissapointed that the two pages are pure BS about edison and his lack of understanding of the very simple instructions.
Anybody else get the impression from the legs that we saw (plus the teddy bear), that the line of Others might have all been kids?
Im trying to figure out why is your name Edison... but cannot figure it out...
there were many theories going around that the girl who threw the bomb on the raft was Alex.
is it good?
that's interesting. i haven't seen it but i'm on a tv frenzy and someone could lend me the first season. is it good?
i HATE michelle rodriguez.
Mac, your hatred for her has completely rubbed off on me. I fucking HATE that bitch. FUCK.
I wonder who is still doing the shifts with the computer... Locke seemed very into it but obviously he wasnt there at all during the last episode... and considering that now he will be again getting into the story with Charlie and the Heroin... I dont think he will be back in the hatch sooni was thinking the same thing, but assumed it could've been Jack and Kate cause they werent in the last one at all.
Why is it five minutes longer?
Also...a question about last week's episode... what did the person on the radio say right before the old plane fell? I forget the flight number, but Boone says something like "we're the survivors of flight XX" and I thought the response was "there WERE no survivors of flight XX" and my wife thinks the person said "This IS flight XX"
,,the radio said "There were no survivors on flight Oceania 815" or something like that, I believe.
and tonight we finally got the answer, which was really the only really good part of the episode other than getting to see one of the others up close and personal.
Man, if my "life now" meant being stuck with that bitch, I'd want the Others to take me.
Sex, that is.
Sex, that is.
I don't quite follow....

he inserts "money" into "her pocket"...
i haven't even seen the hatch in weeks, the "security system" is non existent, and i don't even know what I'm waiting to see anymore.
Tonight I bet it will be all about the bicth Ana Lucia and her flashbacks
I think it's supposed to be Kate day tonight... I read somewhere that tonight we find out what it was she did that had her on the run from the law in the first place.

He should have hammered a bullet into her fucking head with the butt of the gun. Forget shooting her.

Wow, could your source have been more wrong? I mean, there's wrong, and then there's wrong. Whatever your source says, I'll add one week.
This episode was structurally weak. The whole bit "What happened to [the guy who shot you]" and then BOOM flashback to what happened. It's never been so transparent before, like "What happened? Heeeeere's what happened." And then the whole pregnancy reveal, it just didn't work. They should've gone ahead and shown it before all that with Sayeed, or just not have had that conversation.
Ana Lucia is still a bitch.
I also read like polkablues that very soon they will reveal Kate's biggest secret, and I think it will happen in this next one...
They didnt show it well, but the place where they stayed on the other side of the Island may have something to do with the hatch too, and it had the Dharma symbols too.
Interesting how the Dharma symbol for the "tailies" was not the swan logo. :ponder:
ah, i forgot you put stuff in front of you, but still, how did they get launched so damn far? this is bothering me more than the beast mystery.
ah, i forgot you put stuff in front of you, but still, how did they get launched so damn far? this is bothering me more than the beast mystery.
The plane broke in half in midair and continued to travel a ways before the actual crash. It makes sense that a lot of stuff fell onto the island before the bulk of the plane actually went down.
fuck are you serious?
SPOILERS: as soon as i saw the "hello" typed I knew it would be walt. still a kick ass way to end the episode. any ideas on the missing part of the video?SPOILERS

and remember that jack was tossed way out into the jungle and when he woke up he had to run to the crash site, so its not all that crazy to believe that the luggage could have also drifted into that lagoon.
have we discussed how much drive shaft sucked when they showed them? it was the worst brand of pop rock ever.
It's been almost what, 50 days, and those strings haven't broke yet? maybe he had spares, but i doubt it. have we discussed how much drive shaft sucked when they showed them? it was the worst brand of pop rock ever.
Everyone STOP bitching at Ana Lucia... you sound like a bunch of pussies... she is ONE character on a show tha has like 12 main characters and where there is so much going on more than her... Everyone hated Sawyer at the beginning, or many other characters at the beginning when you didnt know them... now Ana Lucia is not the best character, and Michelle Rodriguez is not the best actress, but give her a frickin break.

Great story-centered episode. Not much emotion, but some great plot going on. The smoke....man. My friends, fairly unfamiliar with the show, thought it looked horrible. I let it slide.Yeah, it's too bad TV shows don't have enough time or money to produce good CGI.
And SOMEBODY watched City of God before directing this episode...
You guys need to leave your country for a bit...
Just cause of the kids playing soccer in a "favela"? And guns and shit like that in the middle?
You guys need to leave your country for a bit...
I can see the similarity if you have only seen it on City of God, but really its like saying that the writers also saw The Beach or Castaway before writing Lost.
Best last line ever.
sucky flashback and a lame reason for the marriage split
Great episode tonight. This season is starting to build towards something amazing.
Best last line ever.
They've turned a corner here. Shit is gonna go DOWN!
The only compelling thing in the episode was the exchange between Hurley and Libby. Something set off a warning bell in Hurley's head, and I for one want to find out what it was. :ponder:
well i went on record to say that last week was the only lackluster episode of the series, but this weeks was worse. i don't like what they're doing with their characters. they're creating conflicts because they realized that now that all the original survivors get along and the tailies are integrated (which was the whole drama of the first half of this season, getting everyone back together and meeting the new people) they have no drama. so they're trying to stir up drama's but it feels completely false. after everything the've told us about these characters to have them do things that are so OUT OF CHARACTER is one of the worst things a show can do. (alias in the later seasons was a big offender in this category). i dont believe for a second that charlie would act so crazy or locke would be so irrational or etc. etc. etc.. conflict is fine, but it doesnt seem to be growing organically, it seems forced. and the flashback was sort of pointless. i hope they get back to greatness next week and these two episodes are not the beginning of the shows decline. it's too soon!
Rodriquez is still pug fugly.

but by the way this show goes, we probably wont see anything more about the "army" comment till like another 3-4 episodes, with 2-3 weeks of repeats in between.

me too! it's TERRIBLE. i cannot NOT think of that photo EVERY TIME i see her. i told my girlfriend about it but then said she could never see it. its detracting from the show for me. rodriguez looks the same as when i see her on the show: HATE.The only compelling thing in the episode was the exchange between Hurley and Libby.

I agree, though I can't separate that actress from her DUI photo. She was supposed to be, and kinda was, really hot but it didn't reach its full potential. Rodriquez is still pug fugly.
Hope they go back to the good stuff next week.Hate to rain on your parade but the next new episode is in 2 weeks.
darren aronofsky is directing an episode during the may sweeps!!! i just read that in the new issue of lost magazine.
i think you guys are forgiving the show because you're trying to see where its going and not that it has to be terrible to get there. i want it to get to a crazy interesting place too, i just wish they didnt have to go against all manner of logic and character development to do so.
well Lost is back on track
the awesome evil dude from Carnival show up in Sayid's flashback
also, the countdown getting past zero, did anybody else freak out? I mean I knew they couldn't just let it go, but one the heiroglyphic things started showing up, I was really losing it.
Anyone notice that the army guy who asked Sayid if he had a wife and kids was Kate's dad? It was a picture of her that he was looking at in the truck.
So, what... no review from mod telling us why this week's episode was on or off track?
good to hear. i actually saw the Strokes last nite so i have not actually watched it yet though i did glance at my phone at 9:03 and go 'we're missing Lost right NOW'. but i'll be sure to check in tonite with my thoughts!So, what... no review from mod telling us why this week's episode was on or off track?
Even mod has to admit that was the best episode of the season, and one of the best of the series so far. He just... he just has to.
My guess is that you just set Mod up to be disapointed.nah, i dont treat each episode of lost like it's own film. i dont really rank some over others or set myself up for disappointment. the only exception was it was always great until suddenly nobody acted reasonable and it wasnt, and now it's back. so, that said tonite was great. i liked (and was at first thrown by) having the flashbacks all take place on the island. that could open the show up to going back on itself hundreds of times by showing what certain (unshown) characters were up to DURING the episodes you saw and still take place on the same timeline. like this episode you didnt see Jin, Sayid, Ana Lucia, Michael, Charlie, etc. etc. etc. and every episode has tons of characters who arent in them so when the 'run out of' or want to switch it up they can just keep playing with the timeline of events since the crash. which is really cool.
also, before they throw henry in the locker, you can see a picture on the wall behind jack of a hot air balloon. based on this i figured that henry's story has to be bullshit. that is, until i saw this: http://img135.imageshack.us/my.php?image=1282henryballoon5fu.jpg

Yeah... good stuff. For one of the few times this season, I'm very excited and anxious for next week.
SORT OF SPOILERY STUFF (but not really)
Good batch of easter eggs in this ep, too: the woman whose house Locke was inspecting was Sayid's torture-girlfriend from Iraq, and I'm just about 100% convinced that Locke's dad is the "real" Sawyer, the one who conned Sawyer's parents when he was a kid.
Yeah, this episode may have been the most predictable one yet.
Speaking of predictability, I'll betcha money that he's building a church.
Looks like RK was right.
I liked how this was the first episode in a long time that actually seemed aware of how many different story threads the show is currently juggling, and tried to at least touch on all of them.
All I can say is, thank god for Henry Gale. I dig that guy more and more with each self-satisfied smirk.
I got excited until I saw the length of the sentence.
But then she could still get shanked in those five days.
Holy Jesus Christ.
Why did "Henry Gale" say that Anna Lucia had killed 2 of their good people?
FUCK YEEEEEEEEEEEEEESSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

crazy theory #1 (real crazy): not really michael. sawyer was reading a manuscript called Evil Twin or something. they've cloned Michael or gotten somebody to look just like him and sent him back to take care of business. its pretty far out there, but that was my first thought.
theory #2: michael learned some real crazy shit when he went away that he didn't tell anyone about and has bought into some others philosophy about the good ones and bad ones and done some business.
theory #3: in order to make certain everyone will be as passionate about getting back walt as he is, he had to do this business.
Did you see how Shannon also got killed right after she got laid? I guess thats why Jack and Kate havent done it yet... keep Kate alive!

I agree. We have no reason to be certain that she is at this point. Though she'll probably be unconscious long enough for confusion to reign.
Of course, thinly-veiled as the novel may be, one mystery still remains: Who actually wrote it. While Stephen King and Ridley Pearson, both self-confessed fans of the show, have drawn speculation as the author, harsh critics dismiss the theory, claiming the tome is too poorly written to come from the mystery masterminds.

Interview: J.J. Abrams
The co-writer and director of M:i:III!
IGN FilmForce recently took part in a conference call interview with J.J. Abrams, the co-writer and director of Mission: Impossible III, his feature film helming debut. Abrams is currently one of the most powerful creative forces in U.S. television, having created such series as the powerhouse Lost, the departing Alias and the past hit Felicity.
Abrams spoke to the press about the rigors of making M;I:III, as well as what fans of Lost and Alias can look forward to:
Q: And with Lost, do you have to come with a season cliffhanger that will top the hatch in the last season?
Abrams: I can tell you that Damon Lindelof has done just that. The ending of this year of Lost blows the ending of last season out of the water. It is an incredible finale.
Q: But there has not been like a single thing… like last year, the hatch was sort of a dominant mystery. Now there is so many. What is the one thing that you can leave hanging?
Abrams: You will see what happens but I can tell you that a lot of it has been there and has been building from the beginning of this season. It is not out of the blue, but what happens at the very end of this year is… for me, it is like the greatest finale I have ever heard.
SPOILERS
Marvin Candle's idle arm was moving in this orientation.
Anyone else thing that the fact that both DUI ladies were killed in the same episode?
Spoilerific Q:
Chicken or the egg: Libby and Ana get killed off for getting DUIs, or get DUIs because they found out they're getting killed off?
Just finished reading the book. It was funny because there is a character named Cindy who is a flight attendant, and I was reading the book on the plane and the flight attendant was named Cindy. Anyhow, the book is very good. There are many LOST references and connections, but nothing major and I didnt find any "clues" or anything. Its a good way to market and sell the book, but Im not sure if its meant to do anything else.
I recommend it just as a good book... and for us Lost fans and people interested in the biz in general, its cool to see the many products and ideas that can come out of one clever and successful thing such as Lost.
2 hours after the show aired and not one person here mentioned the fact that TWO Magnolia cast members were on tonight's show? :saywhat:
"they're not who they say they are. they're pretending"
i CANNOT wait for next week.
other than April Grace, who else from Magnolia was on the show?
Best fucking line... "I think I crashed your plane." God, that gave me chills.
last 2 minutes left me lost though.
one thing i don't like is how this episode disproves the theories that the apocalypse/something apocalyptic has happened while everyone was on the island and returning home/rescue by someone else is impossible even though the island is so huge.
one thing i don't like is how this episode disproves the theories that the apocalypse/something apocalyptic has happened while everyone was on the island and returning home/rescue by someone else is impossible even though the island is so huge.
I'm actually glad for that. Think about it, if they had nothing to go back to, then who gives a shit what happens to them and if they get off the island?when they or some of them get off the island in the last episode they find out and it somehow explains how the plane crashed was how it would've been great.
I think the theories people theorize are pointless.but they might be right. or better. see: revolutions and the theory about neo being able to stop the sentinels/powering down because he and everyone else were really robots.
I didn't even know that was a theory. I think the theories people theorize are pointless. I know it's fun, but I'd rather the writers take me in their direction, not my own. I think I have that philosophy towards everything cinematic, though.
I'm actually glad for that.

Next Season's Lost Sneaked
Producers of ABC's hit series Lost, which aired its surprising second-season finale on May 24, told SCI FI Wire that it sets up the upcoming third season, which will focus more on romance—and on the mysterious Others. "The Others are an important part of season three, and there's a lot of mysteries and a lot of questions about the Others that the audience is going to be curious about going into season three," said executive producer Carlton Cuse in an interview. "And those are the things we're going to explore."
Cuse added: "There will definitely be some new characters on the show next year. ... Obviously, Michael Emerson, who plays Henry Gale, he's someone who's going to be very prominent in the show next year." Fans were also introduced to a new character who promises to figure in next season's storylines: Penelope Widmore, played by Sonya Walger.
In the finale, viewers find out where Desmond (Henry Ian Cusick) was, what happens when the button doesn't get pushed, why the plane crashed and the fate of Michael (Harold Perrineau) and Walt (Malcolm David Kelley). At the end, Jack (Matthew Fox), Kate (Evangeline Lilly) and Sawyer (Josh Holloway) are prisoners of the Others. And Claire (Emilie de Ravin) gives Charlie (Dominic Monaghan) a kiss.
"I'm excited about love in season three," said executive producer Bryan Burk, adding: "Don't forget now the people have been on the island for 60-plus days. They're now obviously more familiar with each other. ... The concept of love [is there], and ... it weaves its way through all of our characters. It's going to be much more prevalent in season three."
Now that Lost has finished shooting, the season-three writers met recently for a "boot camp" in Hawaii, where they broke the main story arcs for next year. "It's fun, because we're still kind of following on a macro level the same trajectory that we talked about years ago," Burk said. "The details are changing on this, and new characters that we hadn't thought about are here, ... but what's fun is kind of the whole big journey is still kind of where we had originally talked about it. And it feels as I had always said from day one, when I was doing interviews in season one, I kept saying that the show doesn't really start kicking in for me until seasons two and three. ... Somebody smarter than me recently said in a TV Guide letter, ... 'If you think you're still watching a show about people who crashed on an island, you're watching another show.' There's a lot going on, and as we move forward, ... we're getting deeper into the center of the onion." —Patrick Lee, News Editor
any thoughts on the statue?
the exact same thing happened with the pirate ship and they didn't pursue.

.... and the polar bear, and the cable into the water, and how the pilot was placed in the trees, and where the smoke comes from, all these things and probably many more are shown and we probably will never get a clear cut reason/answer for any of them.

Well I'm rewatching the first season from the pilot onward, and I'm hypocritically formulating theories to justify what's going on. The smoke/stomping monster can't be some manmade thing. I think it's a manifestation of certain strandees emotions. I know this is an old theory, but it plays into why Hanso would want to do experiments on the island. Equally, the idea of manifestations explain the polar bear (and why they're testing Walt), and why Eko and Locke both confronted the monster and survived.
Cable in the water? I don't remember that. The pirate ship, I thought that was part of Rousseau's group? I must be wrong.
Thats if they can make it stay this good for 3 more years... which is not easy.
What is with the DVD release on October? The season will probably start in September... and the point is that people who havent seen the show have a chance to catch up before the new season begins... I dont get that release date.

- Within the first few episodes Kate "gets with someone".
What a great incentive for me to finally start watching the show. I should probably catch up on the first two seasons to fully appreciate it by the time Santoro comes along this fall.if it takes some douche bag to get you to start watching the best show on television you should probably not bother and just buy girl teen mags instead.

Interview: Evangeline Lilly
IGN: Who have the fans been rooting for you to hook up with?
Lilly: I've read statistics online. I've read statistics in magazines and I've read my fan mail and I can't get a number one way or the other. It seems to just yo-yo back and forth.

Before 2004, Evangeline Lilly was a virtual unknown, having done almost no professional work to speak of as an actress.WHAT? She was the spokeswoman for the #1 Chat Hotline in America! Acting her ass off in those commercials seen nationwide!
Shit, the season premiere is this week, isn't it? I'm only on disc 4 of season 2.
You have plenty of time.
But it's taken him 20 days to get to disc 4
So is anyone admitting yet that the 3 month break in between these 6 episodes and the remaining 17 is a bad idea?
i think the episode would've been even more awesome had when she said she was coming in to feed him again he had done the exact same thing and tackled her again and tried to escape. it would've shown that he's CRAZY DRIVEN like in the flashbacks. oh well!
Oh, and I looked again. The book they're reading in the beginning is Carrie. A hint, perhaps, or just a shout-out to their #1 fan?
Goddamnit. I bet my brother 5 bucks that it was The Stand.

Not that I knew it was Carrie, but The Stand was a shit choice because that book would have had to have been carried around in a wheelbarrow it's so big.
Actually, it was The Stand that Juliet had. The guy with the glasses and yellow shirt had Carrie, and the Black woman had Insomnia I believe.

I just remembered all the book club dialogue about how "there's no metaphor there... it's just standard religious symbolism... blah blah blah," and immediately assumed (even before I saw Juliet holding the book with STEPHEN KING so prominent across the front) it must be The Stand.
Why the hell would it be Carrie, though? Carrie doesn't have anything to do with anything. Anyway, the important thing is that I didn't lose my five dollars, because my brother bet that the book was It.
The only thing I didnt' like in this episode was the "is she happy?" line... I understand the point of the sentiment, but I just don't think he would immediately ask "Oh, does it say in your file there that my ex-wife is happy? because if you say 'yes', I'll totally believe you".
Jack-Ben and the redsox was stupid... it suddenly seemed like a different show...
anyone else think they bald guy's "suicide" was fishy?
best line of the show, “you never made me soup.” Which tells us benny’s been in Jack’s place?

Nah, he was just flirting with her.
Jack-Ben and the redsox was stupid... it suddenly seemed like a different show...
I loved that part. Somehow, suddenly tying it in to "the real world" had a very unsettling effect. Like we, as an audience, can't afford to dismiss it as fantasy, because they know about real stuff that's happened!!! It was a nice moment of levity, for sure, but oddly uncomfiting at the same time.
and like mac am wondering WHAT THE FUCK are they doing to the 3 of them. like some sort of human psychology experiment? and also, do you think the others WANTED kate and sawyer to hook up? methinks: maybe.
I think the guy that tried to escape with Sawyer and the former owner of Kate's dress are plants. They're there to earn trust.

Right, I thought that woman was Alex -- the French lady's kid.

At the end of Revolutions, Iron Maiden will suddenly start playing. Neo will be violently sucked out of the Matrix. Cut to a bedroom. Ted Logan wakes up with a jolt. He calls his friend on the telephone and says, "Bill, I just had a most excellent nightmare!"
Locke has always regarded the island as an entity unto itself. In season 2, he lost his faith but faithful Locke is back and I'm glad.Hmm, well considering I missed some of the first season (if they ever drop the DVD price I'll definitely be getting it), I always thought Locke considered the island more part of their destiny, that they were fated to crash there, and not as a being in and of itself, that could be communicated with via hippie drugs no less. It just seemed like a wierd transition, the only explanation being that the episode in the hatch at the end of last season suddenly made him realize this. I can understand him reverting to his opinion that the island/hatch is more than simply an island and even that he was meant to crash there, but suddenly needing to "speak to the island"? I dunno, I guess that's why they showed the hippie flashbacks with the meditating chamber and all that.
Some considerable leaps of logic and now the island is like some sort of supernatural being?
I think the guy that tried to escape with Sawyer and the former owner of Kate's dress are plants. They're there to earn trust.
Yea, that's all true. My point was that the whole "speaking to the island" bit seemed like a pretty far leap ("leap of logic" wasn't really the right way to put it; I meant more of a gap in Locke's development from last season to this), assuming he suddenly realized that this was possible after the hatch incident since he hasn't tried it before to figure anything out. I'm aware the island has always had supernatural undertones and unexplained mysteries, but that whole sequence still seemed out of place somehow, to me at least. Oh well, I'll think on it some more.Some considerable leaps of logic and now the island is like some sort of supernatural being?
But hasn't it always been a supernatural being? Locke can walk, Sun is preggo, Rose's cancer is in remission, the smoke monster, Kate's horse, Jack sees his dead father, Shannon sees Walt... and so on.

anyone else think the introduction of the two new characters was kinda awkward?
OK thanks - that would definitely help. Now I just need to find a cheap way of getting it.
Go back and watch the first season. From very early on, Locke has considered the island to be a living entity. Plus, his going on a vision quest was a direct callback to when he sent Boone on one in the first season.

SPOILERS ABOUT NEXT WEEK EPISODE
But there's a theory going around that Desmond is dead and only Locke and Hurley can see him now. Does anyone remember if anyone directly addressed him last week once they got back to the beach?No I don't believe anyone talked to Desmond or noticed him except for Locke and Hurley. I actually thought it strange that no one did, since I don't believe most people know of Desmond, but I may be wrong there. I don't get why Hurley would be able to see him; Locke makes sense I guess since he was with Desmond.
'okay episode?' this was the best one this season thus far! and the even betters are coming quick! dammit i love this show. don't even need to explain why this one was so good - if you saw it, you know why.Agreed. Best show of the season thus far.

One of the cast members is apparently going to be on Regis & Kelly tomorrow. My guess is that's the one who kicks it tonight.
also: can we in the future never post spoilers for someone is going to die. thats the one thing i never want to know again.

those two new characters are still really awkward.
And the love triangle is one of the weaker parts of the show right now.I might have believed you except for that...
I'm don't really like the episodes so far, but I'm giving the writers the benefit of the doubt that they are building up to something good.
I'm don't really like the episodes so far, but I'm giving the writers the benefit of the doubt that they are building up to something good. I feel bad condemning the season when we're only, what, 6 episodes in?
What the fuck is her character's name again, anyway?
When did Matthew Fox turn into a real actor? He always used to seem like more of just a genial screen presence, but he's been cranking it up to eleven recently.
What the fuck is her character's name again, anyway?Juliet.Smirky McGee.
(and not in the clever season 2 way where it kept doubling back on itself, that was brilliant).
no, season 2 is easily as good as season 1 EXCEPT there were about 4 consecutive episodes midway through that were a season 3 level of quality.
And Juliet is one of the best characters on the show now. Top five, easy.
I got that same vibe during last night's episode. A lot of the mystery behind her persona has been dispelled, which is really my one complaint with last night's show. She's still one of the more compelling characters right now. And I'm with polka in that at this point I don't give a shit about the main island. For the most part I always thought their stories were not as interesting, so this focus on Jack/Kate/Sawyer and The Others is refreshing because it's actually interesting.And Juliet is one of the best characters on the show now. Top five, easy.And yet, she's almost like the female version of Jack.
besides the Biblical quotation during the techno clockwork orange scene, where are other instances?
Now even mod has to admit that last night's episode was of top-shelf season 2 quality if not season 1. Unless he decides to be skeptical about it and writes it off as a Quantum Leap rip-off.honestly, i was not feeling it. and here's why. LOST at its best is an extremely complicated juggling act. there are a dozen main characters, and in order to keep all of them in the air, it takes a lot of skill. last night, when we saw sayid and charlie and sun and claire (new bangs) i had almost forgotten they are on the same show it had been SO LONG since they had anything to do. granted we just came back from a 4 month break but even earlier this season i don't remember them having too much to do either.
I was that I was hoping this episode would tie in directly with Penny's search for an electromagnetic anomaly in the South Pacific. Maybe that he would have told her about it or something. But no. Not a complaint, just disappointed that my hunch was incorrect.
BTW, I just read that last nights episode had the lowest ratings ever for a new Lost episode... which is NOT good at all.
Hm, if Malcolm David Kelley (Walt) was 13/14 when we last saw him, and the next time we see him will be when he's 15/16....that will be a pretty awkward bit of show continuity.

or pretty intentional?
Even if they had to reshoot it, the problem here was the script I think.Yes, but if that was the case then it would be possible that they couldn't reshoot the original script as originally written because of the time/money constraints.
heroes is the younger brother who eventually outgrew his older brother, lost and is now able to kick his ass.i still have no respect for Heroes because it feels so much like an also ran. i will try to resist as long as i can, stewing in the hate i have for all the promos. if Heroes can get to the third season without starting to stumble as Lost has, then i will respect it. but until THAT DAY...

Did anyone else think tonight's flashback story was totaly dope? :bravo:
nobody here watching this anymore?

you are missing the last shot when he had the touchdown and his face... it was the best jack face
you are missing when it cuts to black and says LOST... it was the best cutmy version doesn't have that cut. it continues with mr friendly dropping his pants and jack running like a girl towards him.
sayids episode was great, so was claires, and locke's was amazing.
LOST is back.
Reading this made me more emotional than the episode did but you should have waited until after next week if you were afraid of jinxing it. Lindelof and Cuse said it's a Nikki/XerxesPaolo flashback. I'm a bit skeptical but it looks good so far.
Yeah, screw the haters. This was the best episode ofTales from the CryptExpose' ever.
Even though it was the most pointless, uninformative filler episode in the history of television, it was still entertaining.
1) when nikki died on the set of expose, her "con-target" said that they could always bring her back to life somehow. i thought this was the writers being self-referential. 2) john locke stating that nothing on the island stays buried for very long.
Good points but I'll bet their acting in this episode made the producers change their minds.
Welcome to Xixax, pzyktzle. You'll want to introduce yourself here (http://xixax.com/index.php?topic=2.0).
:-D agreed. the acting is sub-par in terms of lost standards, but still light years ahead of a lot of other shows.it was on par with a bad soap at best.
but how come we never saw a fucking spider (especially that kind of spider) before on the show and suddenly they are surrounded by dozens?

The way I understood it, if you listen carefully, before Nikki gets surrounded by the spiders, you could hear the mechcanical noise of the smoke monster.
not if you're canadian.
okay i'll never check the thread again startinnnnnnnnng now.
LOST is officially back on its feet again.
If the Jay and Jack podcast callers are any indication, that is the most universally noticed easter egg of the run of the show. I think that shitty photoshopping was what caught the eye.
The guy lied about it for some reason. :ponder:
Smart money indeed - is it too far-fetched to think they could have actually gotten the plane that drifted into the sea?
the others are pretty brilliant manipulators (locking kate in an easy to escape cage, putting her in that dress) they're playing matchmakers!
Maybe they gave them hormones or something before hoping they would bang, or maybe the island not only makes people heal but also conceive easier.

Was the deceased Ben, maybe? They took care not to mention a sex, or at least I didn't notice one mentioned...so maybe it's some girl but I think Juliette would have had some people show up.
SPOILERS - PUBRICK, I WOULD STRONGLY ADVISE AGAINST YOU READING ANY FURTHER ON THIS THREAD UNTIL YOU'VE SEEN ALL OF SEASON 3.
I also think it was Ben, or maybe Locke who died.
SPOILER!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
The dead man seems to be LOCKE. The paper seems to say "Jo........". But who the hell knows. Look at his image.

So wait, Walt hit puberty in a matter of days?
Now that Walt is back (or maybe he is not) maybe Michael will be back as well. The Jacob storyline is there, and a bunch of other things like the smoke monster and other Dharma-Others questions.I doubt it was Walt in the flesh. That wouldn't make sense, as he would have been with Locke in the final scene, or with Michael....or something. It was staged in such a way that it looked like an hallucination. I'm thinking Jacob (or the island) was talking to Locke in the form of Walt. Wasn't there a thing in the first season where Walt could hear voices and see the future? Also, the Others wanted Walt back when he was on the island. Sawyer even took care to bring that moment up when he shot Tommy. I think the Others wanted Walt for the same reason they wanted Locke, because they suspected he could converse/interact with Jacob (the island). So it makes sense to me at least that Jacob would use "Walt" as his messenger. Perhaps Shannon's run-in with Walt last season was also the same thing. I dunno, just an idea.
Sayid has seen combat, knows when people are lying, is not above torture as a means of getting people to tell the truth, ALWAYS knows what's going on but no one listens to him most of the time, and can snap a man's neck with his feet still bound.
He's the Jack Bauer of the island.
Perhaps Shannon's run-in with Walt last season was also the same thing. I dunno, just an idea.i think that's almost certainly what it was.

I really think the character was interesting, and her backstory really worked for me. Plus I kind of think she's hot. I don't know why, but she has something. And she can act (maybe only in these kind of tough girl roles who would smack me against a wall and eat the pieces of the brain the came off, but still...).

it was like a catch-up for anyone who abandoned it during the 3rd season and wouldn't know what was going on.
Though that still doesn't quite explain why the pop-ups were spoiling things that happen later in the episode.because the people who stopped watching are impatient.
yeah i got through about half as well. unfortunately the tidbits on screen were not helpful to anyone who WATCHES the show. it was like a catch-up for anyone who abandoned it during the 3rd season and wouldn't know what was going on. like
THIS IS JACK. JACK IS NOT VERY HAPPY RIGHT NOW. HE HAS BEEN ON THE ISLAND FOR SOME TIME.
totally vague and retarded. i wanted to put in the dvd but i went to sleep instead.
I watched about 10 minutes of it and turned it off. I thought they would some interesting clues, production notes, etc.

Ana Lucia was... gorgeous.
I didn't feel like sitting through Eli Stone for the whatever Oceanic "announcement," so either someone fill us in or post the inevitable youtube link.
"I'm one of the Oceanic 6!" :shock:
I think that Sun would have to be one of the 6 as well. Because if not, she's dead.
And I just think that they're lying about what happened on the island, simple as that. They probably just said, "We crash landed, some of us died, and we survived until Naomi found us." No mention of Dharma, Hanso, the hatches, the others, or polar bears.
I think you're right. The VISITOR asked Hurley about the others left on the island, so clearly some suspicious people are still looking for them.I think that Sun would have to be one of the 6 as well. Because if not, she's dead.

i think there's more to it than that. if there's only six of them, a whole bunch of people must have gotten left there...i think that's what they're lying about.
That's pretty weak. I had already started thinking that Oceanic was somehow involved in the whole thing. My guess was that the VISITOR was from Oceanic.I didn't feel like sitting through Eli Stone for the whatever Oceanic "announcement," so either someone fill us in or post the inevitable youtube link.

The red camero at the beginning was the same car that hit michael, kate, and locke.
i always assumed it was claire and aaron who were part of the six, i swore i saw an image of them being lifted off in a helicopter (or did i dream that?)
This is probably just a minor little easter egg, but I'm pretty sure the guy with the video camera right next to where Hurley crashed the car was the same guy who was Hurley's old boss at the fried chicken place and Locke's boss at the box factory. I could be wrong; he was only on screen for a moment, but I felt pretty sure at the time.

i still like the link between jacob and the smoke monster, as if jacob can manifest himself as the dead (jack's dad, eko's brother, maybe walt?) but perhaps that's too supernatural. i want to believe that there's a rational explanation for everything, and that all of the wild theories can be put to rest somehow.
Still waiting for what mod is thinking.saw Joanna Newsom with the Brooklyn Orchestra on Thursday so i didn't have a chance to watch it until this morning.
Theory....
Sawyer is the one in the coffin. It seems entirely too obvious that the "he's waiting for me" would be Sawyer and it's obviously sort of a big deal who that person is. At some pont in the future Sawyer will do something selfish that will cause Kate and the other survivors to hate him, hence Kate's refusal to go to the funeral. I think Kate's love interest in the future is someone we haven't met yet.

OR the person waiting for her is her SON.

I think I thought about that at one point but then forgot. In any case it's a good theory. Probably true. I guess I can see the man in the coffin being Sawyer, but after spending the last few seasons building up a likable Sawyer I don't think it'll end with him being an asshole.Theory....

if jack's signing autographs at coffee shops and they're commonly known as the "oceanic six," there's no way ZERO people show up to one of the survivor's funeral.

I'm sure he loved it. It won't be until at least the second episode before he convinces himself that the show has lost its way. :yabbse-wink:hahahah. yeah, whats up episode 2?! i think this was an hour of what should have been 10 minutes. we saw jeremy davies arrive last episode and this episode, what has happened? the other 3 landed too and they found the helicopter. streeeeetched pretty thin. i liked that they flashbacked the new characters right away to break with formula of letting everyone be mysterious forever and then explaining what the deal is. even though we still don't know much about them, it was cool.
I still don't think we've seen the last of him.
I'd rather have 16 episodes with a break than 13 with no break.

not me man. breaks blow hard (didn't season 3 teach you anything?). and just think of how much more intense and economic those 5 episodes will have to be.
If they've planned out the season to be 16 episodes, then by forcing them to cut 3 of those episodes, some things are inevitably going to be lost. That doesn't necessarily mean that the remaining episodes are going to be any more intense or economical that they would have been anyway. Rather, they're going to have to cut some corners and slack on character development in order to get everyone where they want by the end of the season.
And hopefully, this means they'll be allowed to add a couple of episodes to seasons 5 or 6.
