Lost

whats everyones thought about this? i stared watching it about 5 days ago and im pretty much done with season 2 already.

i started midway thru last season, now i watch it :P

I just CANNOT believe that this is the first LOST thread on here. *ahem* FUCKING. LOVE. LOST. SOOOOO MUUUUCCCHHHH

i think season 2 is my favorite just cause there is so much mystery surrounding who the others are. But season 4 and 5 are fucking siiiiickkk too and. oh fuck it, lost is just so so so sos so official.

actually, I think we had a Lost Conspiracy thread on here at one point. Z must have moved it to the "Nobody will ever find it here" forum. lol i joke I joke I kid I kid

but seriously. lost is the shit. people try and get me to watch it with them at their place but like, its one of the few shows where I have my rituals. and if you dont have a DVR then it sucks to be you, thats how gripping it is. oy vey i love lost.

if anyone hasn't seen it, START. i warn you though, you will not stop watching. hour after hour, its just too good.

sucks this is the last season.

its not a reality show is it?

Piul and I started watching it on Netflix on-demand last fall and literally blew through seasons 1-5 in several months - highly recommended!



SPOILER ALERT FOR SEASON 4:::

My fav episode has to be the one with Desmond and his crazy time flipping after he takes the helicopter to the freighter - that episode was NUTS!!

i thought this thread was about sunlounger - Lost


lol just kidding

i think the show is too dragged for some reason. great show none the less, i have seen every single episode.

spoiler : Vincent(the dog) owns the island. John locke turns into marco v on the island

huh? couldnt u put the spoilers a little bit down wow thanks for spoiling.

I started watching it from the beginning a couple of weeks ago also.

I'm just starting season 2. It's the most addictive thing I've ever watched before. It's like watching a 120 hour movie that you don't want to end.

Lost is great...truly one of the best TV shows ever.

I wonder though, if the writers knew exactly where they wanted to go with the series since the first episode. Like, if however many years ago, they already had this last season written and ready to go.

I wish I could put myself in your shoes & experience this phenomenal show all over again for the 1st time. my thoughts exactly when I started watching it..most addictive thing I've ever watched. and even though they're ending it, I would have watched this show forever, lol. I recently picked up the entire show (minus current season of course) on blu-ray to rewatch myself.

I've wondered about the same thing..I personally believe they make it up as they go but that they had some idea about the endgame; they had to, when they decided to close up things with season 6. I recently read an interview with the producers saying that they'd always known the show's 5 final scenes since the beginning.

Edit: Ah I got beat to it lol

LOST is the one show which has yet to disappoint me so far. I think its been an AMAZING ride. Season by season it just gets more intriguing.

This season has been weird so far imo. As EXCITED as i was for it to return, as i watch the episodes i'm not quite sure what to think about it. oh well, i'm sure it will come together/get exciting again mid-season on...right now im just like Just have to try NOT to overthink the show like usual...man when this show ends im definitely gonna miss it.

Regarding "did they make it up as they went along": You have to remember that the pilot was produced by J.J. Abrams who shortly thereafter left it to Damon Lindelof to continue on his own. Carlton Cuse was jumping aboard only halfway Season 1. They had no idea whether the show would go anywhere beyond the pilot, or for how long it would run. They keep referring to some 'hints' that were placed in the very first episode (Adam & Eve skeletons, black and white symbolism) but they also admit it couldn't have possibly been planned out up until the end. I imagine they had an overall idea of possible themes (epic 'dark' v. 'bright' battle, faith v. destiny stroyarch, perhaps time-tavelling) but surely the WAY up until then was "made up as they went along" - at least until mid S3 when the show's final number of episodes was decided.


About S6, I'm sharing your sentiments, here's how I put it in the COR thread


S P O I L E R










Somehow I'm not really feeling the flash-sideways,tho..I dont see the point, at this stage of the game, to indulge in "what if" hypotheticals. Never mind that there's this gigantic logical paradox cloud hanging over it (unless this new/alternative timeline leads to a point where all Losties do eventually get to the island, back to the 70s etc. ), I just feel it's slowing things down and doesn't tell us that much other than occasional "oh what a coincidence" moments.

So apparently the end-game is indeed the (seemingly) Good v. Evil battle between MIB/Flocke and Jacob's tribe. This is not how I envisioned this show to end, and I'm not sure I like this ultimate storyline, but let's wait and enjoy - as long as it's not overdone (hopefully no ridiculous shapeshifting wars/epic supernatural fights as in Heroes) it should be fine.

The downside to this game-changer is that what used to be a story about those bunch of Oceanic survivors and their struggle with destiny, is now moved to this metaphysical level, which kind of diminishes my ability to identify and feel with the characters. It's hard to explain, but I could relate much more strongly to last season's struggle with time and fate than for this pawns-in-a-game scenario. I do hope for a major twist though, something that would turn this premise of powerless chessmen on its head.

So far, it's far from clear who, if at all, is 'good' and who is 'bad'. This series has always avoided such clear classifications but left it ambiguous if 'bad' is actually 'bad' (Losties v. Others, Ben v. Widmore). What is rather the ultimate dichotomy, I think, is whether there was such a thing as "destiny" or "purpose" for the Losties in the first place. MIB is the cynical denier, Jacob is the Man of Faith. Therefore, at the end we shall know if the Island is "just an Island" and whether Jacob's motives were misguided or had any higher meaning.

I just started watching the 1st season again, too. SO many things now make sense and are cool to see.

+1
I suck at keeping up with TV shows. I still have yet to finish seasons 5 and 6 of Entourage...

but for some reason after my friend got me hooked, I've been keeping up with it SOOO well. If I miss it, I'll watch it the VERY next morning. Have seen every single one so far...

I WANT MY QUESTIONS ANSWERED!!! AHHHHH

i got 2 more episodes to finish season 2 but i'm curious about something michael did.














SPOILERS


i'm confused with the part where michael comes back and shoots anna lucia and libby. what i think is he did it because the others captured him and asked him to do so in return for his son.but then again, he claimed that he was never captured by them. so, will i ever find out why he did in future episodes? or have i missed something?

edit: nm, i just started watching one of the last episodes "three minutes"

check out my last 2 posts in the c0r LOST thread

theres so many more connections on second watch through

I hope the series finale ends as a dream squence....and everyone invovled is actually in a mental hospital

that would be the ultimate Fuck You to the fan base

I started watching it from season 1....i cant get enough of it now.
Almost done with the season.

Found.

i got 2 more episodes to finish season 3, and so far, i'm convinced that this is the case. i think it has to do something with the mental hospital hurley was in.

SPOILERS:




















the girl who crashed to the island with the helicopter told hurley they found oceanic 815 and that everybody was dead...and then locks dad tells him "don't you know where u are" etcccccccc

i can't stop watching this show..i go to sleep every night 4-5 in the morning lol

If you think that's a sick twist...you're in for a hell of a ride for the later stuff.

But I know what you mean with staying up until sunrise watching Lost...everytime an episode finishes with a sick twist you always find yourself saying "ehhh, just one more...next thing you know everyone in yer house is up and getting ready for work.

i just finished the episode called "eggtown" season 4, episode 4, where they flash forward to kate on trial. the episode pretty much lead me to believe that her son was by sawyer; instead it's claire's child, jack's nephew. great twist imo. but where's this all going? do you guys think it was a bad idea to show the audience that some of the people actually made it to the real word with 2 more seasons to go?

No, you will soon realize with all the crazy stuff about to happen, that this show at some point went well beyond the question 'are they gonna make it back home or not?'. That's what's so nice about the Flashforward twist - it completely changed the game and the show's nature.
