The Return Of LOST and Beyond

[Leeza]

I think every episode is great. Some are just greater than others. Ha! No pun intended.

[Laddy]

I wonder who'll die...

[McLovin']

(SPOILER)Paulo I bet.

[Madame Adequate]

I hope ABC loses a lot of viewers due to the new time and large gap between episodes and they switch it back to 9:00. 10:00 is too late for an old man like me.

What are you, Raistlin?

Anyway I thought this was a pretty great episode, the best of season 3 so far. But as I've said before, I bet Lost will look much better in retrospect when people don't have to wait a week for the tiny bit of plot that gets revealed each time. Still, even without those revelations the episodes are good enough within themselves to keep me hooked. Besides, I've already invested plenty into Lost, so I'm going to want to stick with it just to validate said expendeture.

What are you, Raistlin?

I know I think I'm smarter than I actually am, but not by <i>that</i> much.

[Levian]

I want to discuss Lost but you sillies are ahead of Norway, so I can't read this thread and it's killing me.

Episode 5 next wednesday~

Positive Comments:

First Lost episode I've actually enjoyed in a long time.

When Sawyer tackled that guy guarding the Hydra, they did that scene SO good. I winced when the poor guys head slapped off the floor.

Anyways, not ALOT was revealed, but I like Juliet more and more~ Also, the room they were holding Alex's boyfriend in (I forgot his name) made me laugh so hard, yet it was ridiculously creepy.

Wow, I thought this latest episode did a lot to improve things. It seems like the series is actually beginning to move forwards again in terms of plot.

Negative Comments:

Episode kinda sucked. Maybe Im finally realising that Lost is a complete waste of time.

I didn't think it was very good, but at least stuff is happening. No more JKS episodes please.

That's quite the controversial episode. I didn't think it would receive such mixed reviews.

[Moon Rabbits]

Flashes Before your Eyes (the next episode) looks really great.

Really? I didn't think it looked that interesting. Oh well, at least it's a break from JKS. If they had cut out the INSANE amount of unneeded parts in the JKS episodes, I wouldn't mind still watching them. The last episode, while good, was too little too late, and I'm still kinda sick of JKS+Others episodes.

Yeah, same here, but it least the whole situation has been partially resolved last episode. They did drag it out, but they could have dragged it out much longer. I'm grateful that it has been resolved sooner.

[Miriel]

I had a chance to do a Q&A session with a couple writers who used to work on Lost (now work on Heroes) and they admitted that they've made mistakes with Lost by dragging out the "mysteries" and not resolving things in a timely manner.

I think that's the main problem with Lost. It takes ages and ages for it to get anywhere. And once they do give explainations about certain things, the explainations aren't really that great.

In any case. I didn't watch last Wednesday's episode. I figure I'll watch it all online eventually. I've just sorta lost interest.

[Laddy]

A new episode's coming soon, oh, I can't wait.

[McLovin']

Ohhhhhh that was SUCH a good episode.

Look like we know who is gonna die next then eh. There is some Final Destination logic in there too.

Still...we really don't know how Desmond can see the future or if he really did time travel OR why he woke up naked in the jungle.

But this is how I see it:

Desmond said the flashes never stopped and we know that he can interact with his flashes. So had a "flash" when he turned the key and didn't know how to react to it so he interacted with it ya?

I think the writers may have just given us a big clue as to how the series might end.
So maybe Desmond somehow ends up back in the hatch with Kelvin, just before he followed him to his boat and killed him, maybe he decides not to follow and pushes the button instead. Disaster averted, plane doesn't crash.

Also remember how Des kind of predicted to Jack that Sarah was gonna be okay? Well what if that was all just another flashback that he interacted with!?

Time travel really does give you headaches. :/

[Roto13]

If Charlie dies I'm going to start punching people.

[McLovin']

Charlie probably will die on his flashback episode.

Which I believe is Episode 17. So we have awhile to wait.

[Laddy]

This is my thought...

Desmond can time travel, and he change people's fate at a temporary fate, but it WILL come.

I believe people die when they overcome something(s) Examples...

Boone-He got over his sister and gained self-confidence.
Eko-He realized a lot of his acts were not entirely wrong.
Shannon-She started to love others, and receive love in return.
Charlie-No more drug addiction and he starts to regain faith.
Ana Lucia-She had an open option to kill Henry/Ben like she's done in the past, but decides no too.
Libby-Don't know enough about her.

Just me, though.
