LOST spoiler and speculation thread

[ellencho]

If you've got spoilers about LOST this is where you post them. Be sure to include some sort of link to your source. Make sure you specify when something is a spoiler, and when something is speculation based on a spoiler and we will all get along fine.

Here's a link to some pics of next week's new episode with the backstory centering around Jin. (http://lost-media.com/modules.php?name=coppermine&file=thumbnails&album=745)

[Charlie]

Cool. I read an interview of DDK and he mentioned that he's always discussing his role with the Lost producers and expressing concern over stereotyping or portraying AA's as one dimensional.

I wonder if the deeper development of his character is a result of these efforts. If so, it shows that AA actors can indeed influence things if they try.

nice! great job posting this link.

i guess next episode will tell the story of how Jin and Sun met? nice to see an AA guy as romantic lead on network TV... what's next, hell freezing over?

[ellencho]

Ok, somewhat spoilery stuff, but nothing major at all, just something put out by the networks.

I think this week's episode backstory centers around Hurley. The title of the episode is Everybody hates Hugo. This is from abc's website: Wednesday, Oct. 12, 9/8c
"Everybody Hates Hugo"
Disturbing memories from Hurley's past cause him to struggle with a task he's assigned inside the hatch. Meanwhile Sawyer, Michael and Jin discover the identities of their captors, and Claire uncovers a shocking piece of information about the fate of the raft. (http://abc.go.com/primetime/lost/index.html)

Next week is called ... And Found. That's the episode that centers around Jin.

[ellencho]

Someone scanned a LOST article from TVguide. In it, a few questions are answered and there's some mild spoilering towards the bottom. (http://www.livejournal.com/community/lost_daily/109566.html)

If you click on this AOL.com link (http://television.aol.com/feature/lost_tv) and you click on Food Fantasy you can see how Jin is able to speak English. There's two other spoiler clips as well after that one.

[Dialectic]

I don't watch Lost regularly, and didn't watch a single full episode last season, but this season's premiere was pretty cool, and I may catch it tomorrow, too, if I get back from the gym on time.

Some cool little internet tidbits from AICN:

I don't know if you have seen this yet but if you go to http://www.oceanicflight815.com, click on the barcode at the bottom of the page and type in "theislandiswaiting" a page of a script from an upcoming episode #206 pops up. Interesting to say the least....

Also, check out www.theislandiswaiting.com

Okay... by now you've seen this:

Now, just for fun, add an "s" so it looks like this:

[Dialectic]

I just watched the latest episode. I FEEL LIKE I'M READING A BENDIS MARVEL COMIC.

NOTHING EVER HAPPENS ON THIS SHOW!!!

In American comics, we call this "decompressed storytelling," meaning you tell a story in six issues what you should be able to tell in one with more impact. But they tell it in six so they can collect it for the trade paperback, or in this case, they tell it in 24 so they can collect it for the DVDs.

EVERY TIME I WATCH THIS DAMN SHOW, I WAIT FOR SOMETHING TO HAPPEN AND NOTHING EVER DOES!!!

[ellencho]

Last week's episode moved even S L O W E R than this one. In terms of this season, today's episode was chock full o shit.

[Dialectic]

I do enjoy watching my man DDK, though. It'd be SWEET if he got to fight ninjas. And did y'all notice that old dude Bernard was DDK's BOSS on Angel?! All the geek producers love each other!!

[ellencho]

I'm not sure how reliable this source is but some of the things it predicted were right. (http://www.patriotresource.com/lost/insights/spoilers.html)

[Charlie]

So Jin doesn't speak English after all. It was just Hugo having a dream. Or maybe a premonition.

[Fandango]

I'd rather watch Better Luck Tomorrow again.

haha, man I felt the exact same way when I first started watching the show.

BitTorrent Season 1 or buy the Season 1 DVD, so you can watch the episodes in chunks of 2-3. It's worth it, really.

Some pics of episode six of this season. (http://lost-media.com/modules.php?name=coppermine&file=thumbnails&album=755&page=1) So not next week's but the week following it. I think this episode centers around Shannon.

Clips from today's episode of LOST. (http://television.aol.com/feature/lost_tv) Remember that today is another installment of Jin's backstory.

[Dialectic]

I haven't seen the clips, but dang it all this talk has just got me looking forward to tonight's episode. I can't believe I may be becoming a regular viewer. Y'all will be the death of me!

[ellencho]

My brother and I got our youngest brother and his gf into Lost last weekend. The two of them just hung out at my mom's house watching the DVDs the whole time. At one point Marianne had to go back home and was really mad at Jamie for watching episodes without her.

[Dialectic]

Haha! That's awesome. That's like when we get our friends into the Firefly DVDs :D

[aelward]

Sun & Jin centered episode tonight. Jin is really coming out as a complex character with a deep sense of morality.

[Lynch Society]

Great episode tonight. I think a lot of people are getting behind Jin's character now, especially after this episode. Sun was great too, I didn't realize how beautiful she was until now. (just started watching this season) I'd say she's the best looking girl on the show.

[ellencho]

And anyone else notice that Mr Lee, the guy the matchmaker set up Sun with was going to marry his American gf? They didn't say KA or white so we don't know, but it's an interesting twist to the story of how Jin and Sun met.

The whole Michael/Jin and Jin/Echo interactions are muy interesante too.

I thought it was funny Sawyer called Jin "Chewy" as in Chewbacca from Stars Wars. Michael and Jin totally have the same communication vibe as Han/Chewy.

I liked how Jin and Sun met almost by fate - the flash of "orange" was a nice touch.

But yeah, it was cool to see them flesh out Jin and Sun's characters more, especially Jin - OMG an Asian guy on Primetime television being portrayed as a flawed, but ultimately a moral, loyal, and good, guy?! The Apocalypse must be nearly at hand.


Anybody wanna guess that Shannon's going to bite it next? Her character hasn't had an episode yet and she doesn't serve much of a purpose in the show beside being Sayid's GF...

[evil_FUX]

Anybody wanna guess that Shannon's going to bite it next? Her character hasn't had an episode yet and she doesn't serve much of a purpose in the show beside being Sayid's GF...

True, but it looks like they're making it that her character has a connection with Walt based on the previews. Of course that doesn't necessarily mean anything.

[ellencho]

I know who dies next, but I don't know kills this person yet. Just be warned, I'll spoil it later today, but be warned, maybe we should continue the discussion of this episode in the other Lost thread.

[Dialectic]

Yeah, the death was announced yesterday on some spoiler sites, but not the killer. I shall continue the discussion of this ep in the other thread.

(And I dont' think there's any way to split posts into another thread yet ....)

[aelward]

Heh, when Sun's hook-up started talking about "getting the parents of the back," and that he wanted to be frank with her, I thought he was going to say he was gay. I was gripping the edge of the chair until me knuckles turned white. But lo and behold, the Asian male was NOT emasculated once again!

[Charlie]

Great episode. The last scene when Sun found the ring and had her flashback was especially touching. I also thought the bald guy was going to say that he was gay and that he wanted to use Sun as a fake girlfriend to deceive his parents.

We should e-mail the writers of episodes like this to give them praise. A little positive reinforcement is always better than only complaining about the negative stuff.

[ellencho]

If you're here to talk about the most recent episode, I'm warning you all, I'm totally spoiling who dies on the 9th of November and it's all your fault for reading this thread when you know there's a thread to discuss already aired episodes. So there NYEH! :lol:

Not sad to see her go, after the death of her brother, she really didn't contribute much to the show. Also heard from one of the spoiler sites the reason why they were getting rid of her was over money - she was playing hardball. Pretty silly if you ask me, when any member of the cast is expendable.

I too enjoyed the fleshing out of Jin and Sun's past and how they met (which was cute - literally bumped into each other).

Anyone else think that Jin's english is improving quite quickly?

[Charlie]

I saw this lame Pine Sol commercial where this meditating buddhist monk levitates off the floor so his wife can mop under him.

The guy who plays the monk is the same guy who plays Lee, the hotel owner on Lost. thought that was kinda funny.

[nskripchun]

hahaha, I'm glad I wasn't the only one thinking "Man... stupid writers are going to turn another sophisticated, educated, suave Asian man into a token GAY guy."

But low and behold... they have him engaged to a white chick he met at Harvard.

We should e-mail the show's writers and give 'em a thumbs up for not going the emasculation route.

[kalbi]

^ This is in NO SMALL PART to Daniel Dae Kim's continual communication with the show's producers and writers. He deserves some credit too. I'm so proud of that guy. :) 8)

[ellencho]

So if you were paying attention at the end of this latest episode of Lost it looks like there's going to be a 3 week gap between now and Shannon's death (the next episode). :( Boo

Here's links to the photos from the 7th episode - the Other 48 Days which will focus on the people on the other side of the island from the tail end of the plane and what happened to them after the crash. (http://lost-media.com/modules.php?name=coppermine&file=thumbnails&album=784)

That was totally cool (both the fleshing out of Jin and Sun's characters and the American gf - I particularly liked the fact that Sun isn't the stereotypical "golddigger" AF).

The next step is to have an AAM/AAF couple as regular cast members on a show - and then an AAM/WF couple (just to help balance things out).

The actor who played Mr. Lee also had a guest role on "The West Wing" where he played a classical pianist from NCorea who wanted to defect - nice to see him getting additional work (not that there seems to be more opportunities ...a NCorean agent on "24"?).

The season premiere for "Lost" was a bit disappointing (NOTHING happened as opposed to almost nothing happening), but after that - the show has been pretty darn interesting (damn, I got hooked on it over the summer).

[MATHABA]

wait, i must have missed out on something... season 2 already aired? i got the full season 1 from the library and watched it all in a couple of rainy days.
i'm also watching this sci-fi type program called "Quantum Leap"

[ellencho]

For those of you who enjoy podcasts, there are a couple Lost podcasts available for free on iTunes. This (http://www.hawaiiup.com/lost/) podcast in particular, is hosted by a WF/AM married couple who live in Hawaii.

[toml]

Haha! If you like that, you should check out Sliders (http://imdb.com/title/tt0112167/)

[nskripchun]

I finally caught up and watched the latest episode, focusing on Eko. There were some interesting parts, and it was nice how they tied together his story and the drug running plane... funny how Eko and Charlie now have a bond via "my relationship with my brother got messed up".

Any predictions for what Michael was reading on the computer? I have a feeling he's about to go running off in the jungle again...

[Dialectic]

Just saw the last 1.5 eps: the last half of the Eko one and then the meeting the Others one. Once again an excellent and suspenseful study in having almost nothing happen. That leader of the Others reminded me of that crazy bearded dude from Survivor. They should've shot him. And they should shoot a few other characters, too, like Michael, Locke, Sawyer, Kate, Merry, Merry's chick, the baby, the Pillsbury dude, Michelle Rodriguez, and heck I'll throw in Jin's wife. They all annoy me to various degrees. Don't get me wrong, I still enjoy the show, I just don't seem to like any of the characters, except maybe Jin, and that's only 'cause I'd Brokeback him. I don't even like the Iraqi dude. Eko's borderline. Man, I don't even like the Monster. I like the island, though. And the little I-Ching things, I admit those are cool.

[ellencho]

Don't get me wrong, I still enjoy the show, I just don't seem to like any of the characters, except maybe Jin, and that's only 'cause I'd Brokeback him.
Which would you be, Jack or Ennis?

[blockthebox]

[GAY COWBOY MOVIE SPOILER BELOW!!!]

I'd rather be Ennis 'cause I wouldn't want to be beaten to death and kicked in the nuts before I'm forty. Plus, there's something really poetic about living out the rest of your days (in a trailer park no less!) crying over your ex-gay lover's blood-stained plaid shirt.

[nskripchun]

Dumbass Kate got caught and now The Others got more gats... Jack's AK, Sawyers 1911, a couple of SIG226s (Jack & Locke), and a Beretta (Locke's 2nd gun, but I didn't get a good look)!

Another gun nut note: I'm pretty sure the leader of The Others was packing an infamous Walther P38 (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Walther_P38) that he held to Kate's throat. This gun was the standard German sidearm during WWII.

My new LOST theory: the Others are the descendants of an evil group of marooned Thule Society Nazis and the Black Rock slave traders!!!

Nice tender moment between Sun & Jin last nite...

oooh... an outcast alliance of Sawyer + Charlie.

They're the island mafia now. They got all the guns AND the drugs... haha.

[aelward]

"I swore never to talk about the gun and the drugs...." (Jin tha MC).

Anyway, I had to record Lost last night, and it cut off the last few minutes. What happens in the last Flashback? My recording cuts off right when Sawyer is counting down and his Partner is going through the house... what happens after that?

[ellencho]

Sawyer picks up a picture of he and the long con and looks at it, then places it face down on the table. He then goes to another table, pulls out a chair, and on it is a black bag. He unzips it and you see a bunch of money. So basically what he did to the lady was steal her money, but replace it with fake money. He walks off with the real stuff.

[Vahz]

What happened to Sun then?

[nskripchun]

She's OK.

If Jin ever finds out the truth, Charlie is gonna get his ass beat like a drum tho.

That's just it.

Anybody else catch that the Army captain was Kate's dad? (he was holding a picture of her).

I liked the fact that it was a Sayid episode, but I felt a bit unsatisfied watching it since they never revealed whether or not the guy they caught is an "Other"...

[ellencho]

I think he's an "other" because his clothing was way too clean to be someone who has been trudging through the jungle for months after burying his dead wife.

[evil_FUX]

Yeah that guy is so an Other. Didn't you see how that beating didn't phase him after Jack pulled Sayid off of him?

I also, wonder if something minor happened considering Locke entered the code late.

They looked like hieroglyphs. I don't know what they mean though.

[MiNiBoiE]

I've read the "hieroglyph"s are from some font that was in Lotus Word or something. Kind of like Wingdings I guess? Maybe people can type out the symbols and change the font to know what it said.

and LOST is a popular show, it is not getting cancelled

I just can't believe Locke was that stupid to fall for the prisoner's trick.

[nskripchun]

It really is literally the prisoner's trick/dilema, huh?

hahhaa.

Locke ain't hardcore anymore. He's been hanging out with Claire too much.

Who knew that Rousseau was so tall? Also, I'm curious as to how close that other hatch is to their camp?

[xian]

These threads are much more fun when you haven't watched in awhile.

"But Locke has pussified since he touched the fake judge's gavel!!"

"Frederick has a picture of Penelope's piano recital!"

"Sayid needs to get his Christmas bonus and then join a tupperware circle!"


Important Lost theory:

The show is written by a troop of monkeys with typewriters.

A troop of monkeys with typewriters are much less racist in casting than your average American TV executive.

New episode tonight.

Sun reveals that she's pregnant (as seen in the last trailer). I predict Jin will go ballistic, assuming that one of the "others" raped her when she was unconscious, and go after them. He'll convince Sawyer to go with him, since he has the guns. Everyone else will try and prevent this, and someone will die in the scuffle. By the way, it could have been the drug addict who raped her when he attacked her.

You drama queen! You should write for soap operas.

[toml]

so what happened in the episode?

[evil_FUX]

Tonight's ep was pretty good for the Jin/Sun storyline. Plus, if I were Jack I would've popped both of that bastard's kneecaps off.

[nskripchun]

so what happened in the episode?

The episode was all about Jin and Sun and their backstory, with a subplot being Ana Lucia, Sayid, and Charlie going off on an expedition to find the guy's balloon.

Not much happened, except that Sun takes a pregnancy test and it comes out positive, with the added mystery of supposedly Jin shooting blanks. However, Sun swears to Jin that she hasn't been with anyone else and Jin accepts her explanation (after all, they're miracle island - Locke got his ability to walk back). There's lots of scenes of Jin and Sun behaving like a normal married couple, fighting and then making up.

I liked the fact that Jin's character wasn't portrayed as a Joy Luck Club-esque AM asshole, and he's shown to be a loving husband who's just a little overprotective of his wife (who did get kidnapped a few episodes back).

[toml]

^ ah, nice nice. Thanks for the update.

I'm going to wait for awhile before I decide if I want to watch Lost. Mainly just to see how DDK's character ends up.

I don't want to waste time watching it if his ending isn't very good.

[toml]

So I've been reading up a little on Lost and I'm curious, are all the people that Sun could have been involved with--her boyfriends from the flashbacks-- all Korean?

[aelward]

She could only have been involved with one other guy-- who was introduced last season as the son of a rich hotel magnate, who studied Russian literature at Harvard. The two were set up via match-maker, but it turns out the guy only did it to please his father and that was in-fact, planning on escaping to the U.S. so he could marry a woman there.

Turns out he was still around, and had been teaching Sun English. He, himself, spoke perfect English; don't know how good his Korean was.

I'm wondering how honest Sun was being, did you see her face when they were hugging after Jin says "Then it is a miracle"?

Me, I had still been holding out hope that Jin could speak perfect English, and that would come out later-- but tonight's episode thoroughly dashed that....

Anyway, with all the baby-stealing going on, it will be interesting to see how Sun's pregnancy plays out.

[ellencho]

His Korean was just as good as Sun's. DDK's Korean was good at some points, and shitty at others. Sort of like mine I suppose.

And I'm curious about the baby-stealing too. At first I thought they stole only the psychic kids, but they seem to steal all kids.

Or maybe all kids who land on the island are psychic or special in some way? Like Walt, Claire's baby, and crazy French lady's daughter?

duh-dum!

[ellencho]

What did everyone think? They did a good job building up the suspense from scene to scene. Anyone else notice Nadia - Sayid's woman? The one whose house Locke inspected?

[aelward]

Tonight opens up all kinds of cans of worms. What was the riding on the wall? Was that a new parachute that had landed on top of the hatch with supplies?

[Charlie]

It's funny how Locke looks older than his father in those flashbacks.

You sure about that woman being Nadia? If she is, good catch.

[evil_FUX]

What do you all think of the black light map? Also, I wish they'd give a straight answer on something for once.

[lycheng]

I'm late to jumping on the Lost bandwagon. I just started to watch a few weeks ago. Lots of stuff to catch up on. After last night's episode, I'm hooked! :D

The chick convinces him that it's not all in his head, they kiss a couple of times and walk away from the cliff. Then there's another flash back to the asylum, again it's the moment when the shrink takes a pic of Hurly and his imaginary friend. This time the camera pans across the room and reveals Libby as one of the patients.
Sheí all zombied out and being given her meds. So apparently the reason Hurly thought she looked familiar was because she was one of the patients.

^cool.

[ellencho]

Looks like tonight is the Rose/Bernard episode. This one is another extended episode, it'll end at 1004.

[aelward]

OK, this last episode has me thinking: basically, Locke got healed in season 1, and it is revealed that Rose has been healed of her disease as well. The idea, at least according to the healer in Australia, is that there are certain places on earth that heal others.

Perhaps this explains why Jin is no longer shooting blanks? Assuming the kid is his, that is.

[evil_FUX]

Soo....What did everything think of that ending out of left field?

[lycheng]

Maybe it's because those two actresses, in real life, pissed off the producer by getting arrested (http://www.thesmokinggun.com/mugshots/lostgirlsmug1.html)?:oops:

[evil_FUX]

^Hehe, well for me the focus isn't so much the death of those two. I'm more concerned of why michael did it. Could it be he struck a deal with the others? Or maybe he just really want to drive the point home for everyone else to join them in taking on the others?

[ellencho]

Did anyone else notice the commercial for the hanso foundation towards the end of the show? it was blended in with the other commercials.

They gave a phone number - 1877hansorg. I called it and you actually get the hanso foundation directory assistance.

Ah, you're right! The bf said that's what they were going to give us in the meantime to keep us occupied while the show goes into reruns.

I was thinking that Michael made a deal with the Others.

Funny how it's all the Tail Section people who died. And in the trailer, it looks like Ecko takes a dive as well.

[Charlie]

Damn. Just when the fat guy was gonna get laid ;)

Liked the episode tonight... but once again, my VCR cut off the last couple of minutes.

What happens after Hurley starts talking to Libby?

She manages to say one thing before she buys it...

"Michael..."

I guess next episode, we'll see if they catch on to what happened or not.

[lycheng]

Gotta love pneumonic tubes!

Seriously, who "watches the watchers" (those in "the pearl")?

[ellencho]

If the psychic really isn't like he claims, I'm curious how the psychic managed to guess that Claire was pregnant. And maybe he really IS psychic and was BS-ing to Eko?

And the actress who plays Libby makes really good horrified/in pain faces. Poor Hurley. Everyone the guy cares for gets hurt in some way.

[aelward]

I was wondering about the psychic, too. Because if he is fake, then Claire being on Oceanic 815, ready to crash for the Others to kidnap... well, that was chance and not destiny??

[nskripchun]

And the actress who plays Libby makes really good horrified/in pain faces. Poor Hurley. Everyone the guy cares for gets hurt in some way.

I'm betting Hurley finds "The Pearl", sees what happened on video, and then goes buckwild on Michael.

Go Hurley!

If the psychic really isn't like he claims, I'm curious how the psychic managed to guess that Claire was pregnant. And maybe he really IS psychic and was BS-ing to Eko?

No, he told Eko that he gathers intelligence first and then exploits it. And maybe him telling Claire to not go to L.A was just some weird attempt to make her keep the kid and raise it. Or yeah maybe he was BS-ing.

[ellencho]

clips from tonight's episode (http://television.aol.com/feature/lost_tv)

[ellencho]

Maybe it's because I've been living in Philly for too long, but I was seriously surprised when Miss Klugh didn't go off on Michael for yelling at her.

[nskripchun]

Funny how you think the mastermind in charge of things was the bearded old white d00d from the boat, but no... his master is an evil black lady!

I interested by the clue that Walt drops on Michael when he sees him for a couple of minutes, "Dad, they're pretending! They're not who they say they are!" That of course makes me think of the episode where Kate and Claire find the abandoned lab/operating room that had costumes in the lockers...

How much you wanna bet that behind The Others' hatch, they're chilling in swanky lab coats and regular gear instead of the jungle kit?

Where do you guys think Locke wandered off to?

Promo for Wednesday's season finale. (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xNnck-C-0xE) The promo itself is pretty exciting and I'm sure the episode will be too.

[nskripchun]

Where do you guys think Locke wandered off to?

I don't know, but it looks like in the preview that ellen posted, Locke goes crazy and smashes the computer in the hatch... duh-dum!

[ellencho]

There's a Canadian spoiler too, if you check the other links on the youtube page, and you see our man Eko catching the Jesus stick right before Locke smashes it down.

[nskripchun]

So did everybody watch the finale?

Argh, so frustrating!!! I was ready to see some no-holds barred, crazy action with Michael, Jack, Kate, Sawyer, Hurley and Sayid bust'n caps at the others... but instead...

[ellencho]

I watched it. The things I'm most curious about now are:
the bird that said Hurley's name
the Simpsons foot
What happened to Desmond, Eko and Locke in the hatch
What did that look between Jack and Sawyer mean
How they're going to include Sun, Jin and Sayid in next season's opener
And what's with the tubes full of journals that were never read? Does that mean that the people in the Pearl station were the true experimental subjects?

[ellencho]

Very eensy promo for season three on youtube. (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=IDsC-M1Gplg)

New season begins October 4th.

[ellencho]

Pics from first episode of the third season. (http://www.abcmedianet.com/ph_search/search_lv.htm?show_name=LOST&prog_num=001648) Looks like the backstory is about Jack.

[ellencho]

I can't have been the only one who watched? What did you all think? I kept getting Sarah and Juliette confused. I think Juliette is the one with the humongo implants.

[DijabutiA]

Some girl has implants? :shock: Didn't notice that...

Anyway, looks like this is going to be an interesting season... espically with the whole book club begining. That's pretty bizzare.

[nskripchun]

I can't have been the only one who watched? What did you all think? I kept getting Sarah and Juliette confused. I think Juliette is the one with the humongo implants.

heh, all white chicks look alike?!

Those Others are living pretty posh in their pseudo-suburb on the other island.

It was kinda sad to see Jack going crazy over the whole divorce thing... I guess the show's producers are trying to hammer the whole "Jack can't let go thing" again, but I felt like this S3 premiere episode's story was a lot weaker than the S2 premiere episode's story.

At least Sawyer was good comic relief.

[aelward]

Alright, I think we are seeing another plot twist... Jin said he understands English better than anyone thinks, and he can handle a gun. Wonder what this all means...

[BoondockSaints]

I wish they would star revealing more. My patience is waning and I am starting to lose interest in the show.

[evil_FUX]

Seriously, that shit they pull of not answering any character's questions directly when another asks a question was slightly tolerable in the first two seasons. Though now, it's just getting damn annoying and not just in that stupid little "technique" the writers have been doing/are doing to stretch the material of the show. I'm also talking about how much dumber most of them have become save Jack and Sawyer whom both had slightly redeeming moments in trying to learn about their captors or escape.

[lopan]

The show is beginning to wane on me, and even still, i find myself watching it every week. I just can't pull myself away. But i typed in "Lost sucks" into Google, and got a bunch of sites. This comment on one of the blogs was quite interesting, and pretty much sums up everyone's frustration with the show thus far:

I watched the first season of Lost. Thought it was good. I watched the second season of Lost. Not only did it SUCK, but I can not give you an example of anything important that happenned during season 2. Some new characters were added, we were given their flashbacks, then they were killed off. Hah! And I have heard people say that Lost is like a fine dish of food that you have to be highly intelligent to enjoy. UmmÖNO. There is a VERY thin line between revolutionary art and pure crap. The producers of lost (and by the way, why does the show have like 15 producers???) tricked us the first year into thinking Lost was some great new concept in television. In the end it turns out they simply created a huge pile of crap that they couldnít get themselves out of. I told a friend of mine that anyone can come up with an amazing idea for a television seriesÖand it will last one year unless you have planned out where it is going. You cant just come up with an incredibly complex and mysterious plot unless you are intelligent enough to know how it will play out. Lost was surely not thought out. It was just ìlets make something extremely different and worry about the rest later.î That is why LOST SUCKS and why THE WRITING HAS GOTTEN PROGRESSIVELY WORSE. THIS SEASON THE DIALOGUE IS HORRIBLE. Got

So what the hell happened? Did the writers really write themselves into a corner?

I read PVPonline daily, and one of the things Scott Kurtz mentioned on his blog was that he's not going to read anymore posts on the forums regarding his storylines. He's a bit peeved since everytime he comes up with a new story arc, his readership poo-poos all the mystery away by conjecturing on every possible alternate outcome to his stories, so that when he finally concludes his story arcs, it was inevitably someone's "idea".

so what do you think? Do you think the fans have pretty much ruined their own show by speculating on all the outcomes, forcing the Producers to run around trying to figure out how to conclude this series to everyone's satisfaction?

[generaltojo]

Sounds like the same complaints about Twin Peaks when it was on.

Wtf, for real? I thought these damn writers stated (bragged) about how they came up with so much crap for the show that it just happened to end up being 6 seasons worth? If they're turning back on that statement then the whole thing has just turned lame

[Lum]

Anyone still watching? Jin finally kicked a guy's ass on the island last week--kind of long overdue being the middle of season 3 now. Anyway he busted out a little bit of army-style martial arts, complete with a roundhouse kick. It was cool to see him put the hurtin' on someone, but it took them so damn long to do this that I couldn't help but feel the Jin fans got thrown a bone.

I really want this show to be good again. The biggest problem with it IMO is the way they keep abandonning plotlines whenever someone leaves the show drives me nucking futs.

[evil_FUX]

^ I don't think this show will ever become good again. They've jumped the shark way too many times. For example the whole Nikki and Paulo crap. Plus, don't get me started on how Sayid is nowhere to be found in flushing out Juliet or that Kate and the rest of the survivors, save a few, actually are dumb enough to trust her.

And yes the abandoning of plotlines, very fucking frustrating; which is why I turn my attention to Heroes more. At least they answer shit.

[Lum]

The Nikki and Paulo thing was sooo dumb. They should have just killed off the cast little by little and let it become a show with three or four characters till the end. It's not going to last 6 seasons anyway and as it stands this is becoming the most overcrowded deserted island in the history of fiction. I'm still watching because I feel like I have to know how it ends, but it is getting painful.

I gave up on Heroes, it's so corny and I hate Ali Larter. Prison Break is the shit, but it's not on now.

dude, have you seen the latest episode of HEROES? It had a lot of "Age of Apocalypse"-type feel.

Tonight's episode of LOST was OK, though the "flashbacks to one week before" was kind of a cop-out.

Even though Season 2 and most of Season 3 has been crap (except for the Jin / Sun episodes) I'm still hooked...

[Lum]

Just finished watching onlline. Pretty good episode but I can't believe they're veering towards the purgatory idea after so much denial over it. I expect some decent episodes now that this season is nearing the end and they must have lost some viewers after all those 'filler' episodes at the beginning. Seems like Carlton Cuse really screwed some things up, I actually liked most of season 2.

[lycheng]

I liked last night's episode too. I also agree with Lum about the purgatory idea. Denial by the producers or not, the fact that Locke can achieve a form of purification after an apparent death (as viewed by the outside world) is an allegory to purgatory.

One wonders about the idea that Locke's purgatory purification is getting Sawyer to kill his dad for him... though maybe Sawyer's purpose has now been fulfilled? He finally got to read his letter and wack the namesake guy who ruined his life.

[Lum]

I don't believe it, Lost is scary again! They should have titled this one "Hostile Takeover" instead. Hehe. Watch it online if you missed it.

God loves you and so does Jacob.

[ellencho]

I totally have to re-watch everything that happened at Jacob's house. And how old exactly is Richard? He looks younger than Ben.

And I knew Ben's dad was Uncle RICO!!!

[Lum]

I totally have to re-watch everything that happened at Jacob's house.

That was SO creepy in an old-school horror kind of way.

And how old exactly is Richard? He looks younger than Ben.

OMG I can't believe I missed that! The guy hasn't aged a day. If anything he's gotten younger. His eyeliner scares me.

[Kuroyama]

I downloaded and will watch the latest this weekend with the wife. I dont know brah, Lost hasnt scared me since the crash in Epi 1. For some reason humans and monsters dont really scare me, but broken/failing technology just creeps me the hell out. I dont panic or anything, but it really disturbs me.

More so than Hostel, SAW, or any Hellraiser films... Apollo 13 really got under my skin. Yet, I work with machines (servers/storage/backup) for a living! What is that about?

[aelward]

The Cabin was way creepy. Ben is way creepy.

So... is Locke dead, or will he regenerate again?

[nskripchun]

The Cabin was way creepy. Ben is way creepy.

I dunno... it doesn't look good for Locke. Maybe now that his father is dead, he has nothing to live for?

"Jacob" was crazy. Freaked me out.

And seeing Ben's back story... interesting. I like how they connected it back to the VW bus they found in the jungle.

[Lum]

So... is Locke dead, or will he regenerate again?

I'm sure as of the end of the episode Locke is NOT dead, but that doesn't mean he won't be if/when he's discovered in the pit. I'd be amazed if he does get killed off since he seems like family to JJ.

Kuro - Jack's scene of the plane going down/sonic boom/jump-cut to him staring out at the ocean gave me a serious fear of flying. When I think of what made Lost great tele, that's the first scene I think of.

*Whoahoho it's Jacob (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=H1TK69EBUac)!

[evil_FUX]

@kuro: too funny man. I think you really haev become your job man. Of course I'd probably be freaked about tech failing (i.e. servers) because it'd be more headache for me

So Jacob's Jack's dad huh? I was fearing something like that when my friend made a mention of Jack's dad. This show is just getting too ridiculous I'm not sure how much more I can take. It's like they keep you watching in a sadistic way. Shit, everyone's really dumb in trusting Jack and Juliet, especially Kate. The writer's potentially kill Locke, the one guy that actually was making some damn headway on what the fuck is going on, and everyone just withholds any useful information in moments where it could help, save a few people.

Oh and don't fear Jacob/Jack's dad, he's just drunk.

Edit: On second glance based off of screencaps, I potentially agree with some random guy that Jacob looks like Locke with a wig.

[ellencho]

A couple of things came up when I watched this episode - you know how the Losties hear the whispering in the jungle every now and then? Does that mean that there are other inviso-people walking around like Jacob?

And the whole thing with Richard always looking the same? In the beginning of the show you see Ben holding the doll that Annie made for him, and Richard asks him what it is. And ben tells him it's his birthday and says "You remember birthdays don't you?". I wonder if somehow Richard is immortal in some way?

[Lum]

I did like this one, no spookiness but it was fairly well done. Can't decide if I want Charlie dead or not, but I get the feeling someone has to die and I like Locke a hell of a lot better. Anyway the two women at the end...yeah, I'm going to take a guess and say they're from Naomi's ship. Just 'cause.

Season's almost over. Finale is 2 hours which should be interesting. One thing I'm still waiting for is the Dannielle Rousseau episode. Am I the only person who loves this character?

[ellencho]

Danielle is my favorite character.

This episode was pretty entertaining and was a good set up for next week.

[Lum]

Danielle is my favorite character.

*gasp*

I knew there was someone that understood...

Seriously though, she's a badass, and the scene when Sayid fixes the music box was sooo sad. It's about time those selfish Losties did something nice for her.

Hey wasn't Charlie writing his "Greatest Hits" before he knew Desmond's latest vision? I don't know that seems slightly odd to me.

[aelward]

I've always been annoyed by Charlie, from the very beginning. Little whining brat. I was waiting for him to go off to the big island in the sky. But the mood of yesterday's show made me feel so sorry for him. I had a feeling by the melodrama that Desmond was going to take his place; but I guess the underwater observatory NOT being flooded and Charlie living was quite a surprise.

[Lum]

Ahh shit I just realized another thing...

I thought Charlie couldn't swim?!

[Lum]

Arg, this episode raised more questions than it answered. Is Jack's dad alive in the flash-forward? What's the landing strip for? Who's in the short coffin? If they got rescued, why would they need to go back?

Glad to see Walt in this, even as a hallucination/vision. It made me feel like some old stuff might be addressed in future episodes. And what do you know, Jack likes Nirvana.

Hope season 4 starts with a bang and not a whimper.

[evil_FUX]

No, I think jack's dad is still dead. No idea what the landing strip is for. The short coffin is for the new character who's obit was found by Jack (according to other forums) and looks like we'll find out what that new character says to them for needing them to stay on the island. Btw, Naomi got a raw deal in that death.

[Lum]

New character? This is the first I've heard of it. But I did find this screenshot of the obit (http://bp0.blogger.com/_RrObyQ3XzcY/RlUe-1YihSI/AAAAAAAAFkw/ucINFuG1jfo/s1600-h/newspaperclipping2.jpg) and the visible part of the name doesn't seem familiar.

One interesting theory I read was that Charlie is the musician who programmed the Looking Glass device in an alternate timeline. He did punch in those numbers awfully fast.

Pretty crazy season finale with everything being set at some point in "the future".

The wifey made a good point to me in that this kinda parallels another JJ Abrams series, Alias, where at the end of one season, they "jumped" into the future.

So maybe Season 4 will concern all the "survivors" somehow trying to re-adjust to life in the US?

As for who's in the coffin... a character without any friends or family?

Makes me think it's Locke, or Sawyer...

They did that on Battlestar Galactica and the series finale of Voyager too. I think it's meant to blow yer mind. I have to admit this was a great episode regardless.

So maybe Season 4 will concern all the "survivors" somehow trying to re-adjust to life in the US?

The flash-forward may have been a possible future, like dependent on what happens after they contact the freighter. In which case almost everything depends on Locke who seems to know what he's doing again. He could form an temporary alliance with Ben since they have the same goal to stop Jack from growing a beard. ^^

Thing is I don't believe Naomi is a liar because Sayid would have caught that shit like herpes.

As for who's in the coffin... a character without any friends or family?

No idea. "J__antham of New York" describes neither of them, but I'm starting to think that piece of paper was an easter egg. The real clue is Kate saying "why would I go" and Jack saying "nobody showed up" implying that a) more Losties survived, b) it's a guy they know and c) Kate has no attachment to him.

Gonna be a looong wait till we find out. :(

I'm pretty sure it's a jeremy bentham (or something bentham) as that was announced, or so I've read, and that it's yet another philosopher; we all know how they love to throw in the names of philosophers into the show.

[Lum]

Awesome, the shoe fits thanks!

That explains things. So Kate looks at the obit and says "Dude I don't know this Jeremy mofo, why the hell would I go to his funeral?" :D

[evil_FUX]

Did she even know about the obit? I think Jack was the one that told her, and she's probably thinking whatever the fuck happened back then we don't owe him shit.

[lopan]

I just the saw the finale tonight, and i was a bit disappointed. It felt a bit anticlimactic.

Anyway, i think the dead guy in the obit is Walt. From what I could tell, the casket seemed a bit short. And the funeral home seemed to have been in a black neighbourhood. And wasn't Walt taken to New York by his mother initially? And the fact that noone showed up could mean that Michael is probably dead.

And the "he" that Kate is referring to could be Sawyer, who she might be living with now after the rescue.

I doubt John would have left the island, even if rescue did come.

Ken Leung Gets Lost
Source: TV Guide
August 19, 2007


TV Guide has learned that Ken Leung, who played Uncle Junior's mentally unstable protégé on "The Sopranos" last season, is joining the cast of "Lost" next season.

The magazine says Leung is expected to play Russell, a brilliant mathematician who is capable of great insights and has a tremendous knowledge across various scientific fields. He will first turn up in February's season premiere.

Leung also played Kid Omega in X-Men: The Last Stand.

http://www.comingsoon.net/news/tvnews.php?id=36476

Also joining the cast will be the clones of Nikki and Paulo, the head detective from HBO's The Wire and some Charles Manson-looking dude. =S

Ken Leung's character is named Miles, and he's a GHOSTBUSTER. He's so bad ass.

This season is going to be sweet.

I thought the scene with the vacuum cleaner to be pretty interesting. At first, I was like "WTF".

I like the fact he's got psychic powers to talk to the dead. Maybe he's connected somehow to Walt?

I guess now they can kill any character and Ken Leung's character can still talk to them to get info.

oh snap.

...but the ending sucked.

I think only Korean speakers caught this, but when Jin was buying the panda (I can't remember if it was for the first or second panda) he was on the phone speaking in a more formal way than a guy would speak to his wife and I knew he wasn't going to take the panda to Sun.

What a finale for the season!

I can't wait until next year...

Yea but I figured that Jin wouldn't have been talking directly to Sun but one of her doctors instead. I also figured that it wasn't her because of how obsessed he was with buying the panda and didn't seem to care about the birth which made me figure it was somebody else.

PS. Jeremy Bentham!!! That was the first time in a while where I think I physically went into shock. I don't think I can wait a year for the next season.

This show still pisses me off, I still don't even know what the damn premise is other than this random event happened to these people. I'll keep watching out of curiousity to see where it leads, but man there's just no main narrative aside from some kind of real estate war.

Emo tears. Jin and Sun are my favourite characters on the show. Sigh. Jin better be in flashbacks or something next season.
