"Now where did I put that darn island?!" Lost thread!

[Reply #120 on:]

Thats not true.  Last season Dan wrote in his notebook that he needed to use Desmond as his constant.  They do not care about each other immensely.

It's been a while since I watched The Constant, but maybe he would care about Desmond because it was Desmond who gave him the co-ordinates to successfully make the mouse's consciousness time-travel. That was a huge thing for Dan.

Gah, who knows. Lost makes my brain hurt. And my pants sticky.

chay meet me after school in the playground, you're dead!

Don't listen to her Faze! I'd never do that! Replace the word Punched with molest caress, and then we're onto something!

But I agree with amy, if you think of now as present time, and if i go back in time and did do that, i'm still sort of doing it in line with this time, so as soon as i do it then, you only remember it now... I know what i mean...

[Reply #122 on:]

Could be because Des is the exception to the rule?

Des is the exception to the rule for Dan because he's Dan's constant. Otherwise it wouldn't have mattered if Sawyer had talked to him.

[Reply #123 on:]

All anticipations for this weeks episode seem to be non-existant. Thanks okay, I'll still watch.

Also,

These new episodes did reignite the excitement that is waiting for the next episode of Lost which always dies down after months of waiting for a new season but it is losing its touch a bit. Early seasons posed questions I wanted to be answered NOW but these episodes pose some questions I can't even be bothered to ask.

This is amazingly astute, and the way I feel exactly, good wording Maz.

Charles Wittmore?  What's it to you?

WHAAAAAATTTTTTTTTT?

Also, Charlotte is so dead, also, she was wearing a red shirt - sawyer is next!

PS. I am still waiting for Jin's reappearance.

[Reply #125 on:]

You might be waiting a while...

[Reply #126 on:]

Jin is alive.  I can't believe you people can't see that.  Seriously.  This is just like when I said Claire was Jacks sister A SEASON before they officially said it.  START TRUSTING ME.

Doesn't anyone notice the opening credits?  His name is still listed there.  When Michael and Walt were gone they stopped listing their names.  Jin's real name = Jin alive.

[Reply #127 on:]

Okay, my bastard Canadian television steals the ABC feed right, and lost goes to 10:02, but those bastards cut it off at 10:00 so I missed the ending Don't describe it, I'll watch it later. But I'm furious about that

Anyway, that was the best episode since the Constant, and much better than the premiere eps too.  Lots of great moments. This was classic Lost.

Oh, the actor is coming back, they've said that. Doesn't mean he's alive. (Also, i think we all thought that was jacks sister?) It's LOST, it won't surprise me if he's alive, but he was in the centre of the 'splosion.

[Reply #130 on:]

Bear: Yeah, that girl as a villain really seemed halfhearted and unnecessary.

Also, in the previous episode Faraday said they couldn't alter anything in the past, so he doesn't even need to be safe with the bomb because no matter what he does it's not going to go off right?

[Reply #131 on:]

Yes which is why I don't understand

Show spoiler

How Locke could kill those Other or how young Charles Widmore could have killed that Other for that matter...because he wouldn't have done that had Locke, Sawyer, and Juliet not been there, which they weren't in the past.

[Reply #132 on:]

Because they WERE in the past.  If time is continuous, than those events already happened in the future. 

I think the girl villain was the chick that was laying in bed in the coma.  Thats why Dan kept looking at her.  If she was going back and forth in time, like Des in the Constant - she could be there.

Chay - Jin is alive, and when you all find out, I will laugh at you for ever doubting my physic abili OMG SPIDER ON MY WALL BBL

[Reply #133 on:]

hahah, didn't see that coming did you, fucker!?

[Reply #134 on:]

Actually Chay, I seem to have some weird connection with Spiders.  I always know when one is around.  It'll be like 3AM, and all my lights will be off, and for some reason, I can't fall asleep.  I'll turn over and look at a spot on my wall, could even be on the other side of the room.  I turn the lights on and BAM, spider, exactly where I was looking.

REAAALLY good episode, it's good that they are starting to link things together. back to ep 11 of last season, when richard visits young John, do we think he was pissed at him for not picking the compas?

Not enough ben in that ep

I need to draw a connections map, the ep linked a lot of people together. Do you think Daniels Mum is the lady from the end of last ep, who was in the ep when Des was getting a grips of his time shifts?

[Reply #136 on:]

Mrs Hawking? Yes I do. Daniel's mom is in LA, which is probably where the end of ep 2 took place since that's where Ben had just been with Hurley. Also Hurley, Jack, Sayid, Kate, and Sun are all in LA... Desmond is on his way. Coincidence? Yes, but it's going to allow them all to go back to the island.

[Reply #137 on:]

I thought Ellie was cute

[Reply #138 on:]

They should put a young Danielle and her science team, or the Black Rock events in these flashbacks, I nearly thought Ellie was her but then it wasn't.

Needs more Alex too, when did we see her last?
Edit: Oh lol I just remembered, Keamy shot her then got the FSM set on him, sucker.

I never doubt it.. im on the group that he is alive..

BTW.. loved Desmond storming into Widmore's place , Desmond rulez

And they gave a hint into Richard.. he is old... old..
we have some theories about why he appears in different times allways the same..

Show spoiler

One coworker said that they were actually clones in diferent times.. now his theory was seemengly destroyed

[Reply #141 on:]

Show spoiler

My favourite part of the latest episode was that Desond named his kid Charlie. It made me think "aww, I miss Charlie" but also "Penny's dad is Charles.." and "Charlie is a nickname for Charlotte.."

So Whidmore misses this island because he was there in his youth. What does he want with it? Did he want the bomb to go off? Who makes a leaking bomb, honestly..

I miss Jin/Sun plots..although that could be because I've been watching season 2 over the past few days.

[Reply #142 on:]

[Reply #143 on:]

<3 Dan - it just has to be said!

@Amy: Jin's name in the credits could mean he shows up in an episode as a ghost/dead person, or as a new memory or in a flashback scene. He's so deeaaaad

@Chay: Oh I totally forgot about Richard visiting young Locke!! So Locke picking the wrong item just confirmed Richard's preach about selection at a young age yadda yadda yadda. No wonder he was pissed.
So that means the rules kinda change 50 years down the track when they accept him as "special" and to be their leader then.

Okay... so this whole young Charles Whidmore thing... Ben comes along at some stage (from somewhere??) and "steals" the island from Whidmore - remember? right? Is that how it went? Each one was accusing the other of stealing the island from them... but does this now prove that Whidmore was there first? Is this group of "others" pre-dating Ben's "others" camp? Or was that the camp that Richard told to get out and then killed off?? (somehow Ben involved, and I speculate to have escaped). Any ideas?

Ohhh and I'm slow, yes okay so Desmond et al go to LA now - surprise that's where the O6 are hanging out etc... he somehow intercepts and gets them on their merry way by being involved...

Why doesn't Richard age? Is this one of the island's "powers"? Why isn't Locke's wound healing itself super fast either?

H-Bomb! How does Dan know that by burying it, it will be okay? I mean, why not sink it in water? Why bury?

Is cute villain girl infact the same girl sick in the bed?? I couldn't be bothered snapping two frameshots to compare.

[Reply #144 on:]

H-Bombs can swim. 

[Reply #145 on:]

Ninaka - Cute villian girl (Ellie) is about 20 in 1954. Desmond sees sick lady in 2007, when Ellie would have been about 73. I don't think she's the same woman. She could, however, be Dan's mother

[Reply #146 on:]

Nins. All those people i presume get killed by the Americans who eventually do take over the island to do their "Testing" or whatever the called it, Which goes on to be Dharma. So Widmore doesn't die, but gets off the island, Ben then comes with his dad, helps/enables the purge and feels like it is his island now. But Widmore obviously feels like it's still his, even though they were sort of on the same side, ie, The Others and not Dharma.

Also, Dan knows it's okay to bury, because he's been on the island 50 years later, and it's still there, it didn't blow up, so it can't blow up...

EDIT: Shut up faze, the letters are like, right next to one another...

Purge dude, not surge.

Dr. Marvin Candle/Chen still confuses me.

Anyhoo, I think Richard is a pretty good leader, why do they even need Locke or Ben to lead them?
Anyway, they already have Jacob (who due to the time travel is probably Locke or Jacks dad in some form or another) so whats with all the leader bizness?

[Reply #150 on:]

[Reply #151 on:]

Ninaka - Jin is alive

Also, the island can't be making people not get older, then Alex would have never grown up.  But staying young probably does have something to do with why women can't have babies.

Ben comes along with his Dad when Dharma came in.  He met Richard and they killed the whole crew.  Which then Ben grows up, and doesn't stay the same age.  Hmm.

[Reply #152 on:]

Maybe Richard was born a middle aged man.

[Reply #153 on:]

Richard is probably a part of the island like Jacob is, which is why he doesn't age and which is why he doesn't lead the Hostiles

lol i know that part... I meant, why bury? Why not carry it out to sea and sink it? Why not something else? Why *bury* in particular?

nanana nana na nana na LEADER!! Leader... leader... leaaaaderrrr...

I don't know about Jacob. Obviously he's around back in the early days if Richard is aware of him - maybe Bear is right, maybe Richard is part of the island afterall.

[Reply #155 on:]

Sea water can probably corrode the H-bomb case exposing the radioactive elements of it to the sea, risking contamination.. also if a leak ocurrs tides will espread it..

Burying it is safer at least in short-medium term

Ninaka you didn't say Batman...I mean Leader! I love the Leader!

Jin is so totally dead.

[Reply #158 on:]

I forgot to mention that I loved ep 3 mostly because it was totally "classic Lost". All on the island, lots of "who's that?" moments Good to have a classic ep so deep into the story.

And Jin is dead. Name in the credits is not indicative as to whether his character is alive or not.

[Reply #159 on:]

I agree Ninaka. I thought it was the best episode since The Constant.
