I am thoroughly convinced that they totally just make this show up as they go along and will probably never answer more questions than they create.
but thats ok, as long as i ignore that I still enjoy the show anyways
I really dont think so.
At one point I thought the same, but the island skipping through time, answers a lot of the completely random things we've seen in the earlier seasons, like characters appearing in random places and saying random things.
At the time, it didnt mean anything, but 4 seasons later we get the explanation.
I like it. I love how lost makes you think, even if its a lot more unanswered questions.

Hey guys, can you help me get up?

What I love about this show is, despite haters thinking otherwise, the creators of the show really do know where it's going. It's incredibly complex and even the most minute of details have all been planned out (bar some things that had to change due to unforseen circumstances).
For example, when Richard visits baby Locke, you're just like wtf? That was a while ago now, and just recently it was fully explained. I've also been re-watching season 1 with my girlfriend, and Danielle mentions in season 1 about one of her French people she rocked up to the island with losing his arm -- the whole conversation about it lasts around 30 seconds. Now in season 5 we see the guy lose his arm. Love it

Anyone else thinks we will never see the Hurly Libby relationship in the crazy hospital?
Also, 4 toed statue?
|
4 toed statue is possibly related to the temple the smoke monster is guarding/lives in -- it had Egyptian heiroglyphics all over it and the 4 toed statue seems to fit with that theme.
|
that seemed more like a 4 toed colossos than a egyptian statue.

i think this is likely, seeing as thy still havnt really even explained the smoke monster itself, aside from calling it a guardian

great episode tonight, I thought them getting back to the island would take a loot longer than this.

don't look at the thread then

i watch LOST on the ABC website and I don't even know when new episodes air on TV. i just watched episode 5 online and came here for discussion. is it really necessary for you to be a stubborn prick, considering how little effort it takes to go back and edit your post. it's common courtesy. everybody else in this thread could be bothered to make the effort, why are you being such an ass about it?
|
The thread says season 5 in the title.
;o
|
season 5, episode 5, which is the episode before the one zulu is talking about.
|
Did jack say "al suicided" instead of locke?
|
nothing occurs to people that Jin can speak English now?
Jin was totally wtf at the end, with Dharma suit and like new car.

Ben is so awesome, he always drops the best lines and does the coolest things.
Jack: What's going to happen to the other people on this plane?
Ben: Who cares?

really cool episode :o
I thought it was really sub par imo.
+ Show Spoiler +40% of the episode was Farraday's mom explaining how shit was gonna go down, which wasn't really that stimulating. The characters were asking questions that were figured out by the audience a few episodes ago, and then another 40% of the episode was the drama of "dealing" with going back, etc, which was just getting old at this point. All of this hardly made room for any really interesting plot development, rather it was more like the writers just were like using this episode as a boring segway for explaining how they were going to get back. For a show that draws viewers back because of it's ludicrous plot twists, it really was just like hell trying to watch the first 30 minutes.
The return of Lapidus, Jin as a part of Dharma, and Ben being Ben (wtf happened to him) were the only things worth watching, and that all happened in the last 10-15 minutes. I really enjoyed the last couple episodes, and this one just sucked majorly in comparison.
Possibly interesting parts, (like how Hugo knew about the plan, what Kate did with the kid, etc.) when inquired about were answered with "DON'T EVER ASK ME THAT AGAIN." or "Does that really matter right now?" YES! It does fucking matter! I mean I'm all cool with the writers deciding to withhold stuff from the viewer, but when you do so by making your characters act retarded it doesn't do anything but frustrate.
