    Lost: Season Six

    So I finally watched the epilogue short... and it was neat, but hyped up a little too much.   I understand that some audiences don't like figuring out things for themselves, but the way this hit you over the head with things that were implied in much earlier seasons detracted from it, in my...

    They pretty much explained the numbers in the "Lost Experience" ARG:   http://lostpedia.wikia.com/wiki/Valenzetti_Equation

    Lost: Season Six

    Well yes, I agree that's how it ended up playing out. I just feel like it'd have been much, much more powerful if we hadn't already seen them off the island. Like I said, that's the one nitpick I continue to have with the overall structure of the narrative... so if that's the only thing, I'd...

    Lost: Season Six

    The statue had four toes because it wasn't of a person. It was of the Egyptian goddess Taweret. As long as we saw the cabin, Jacob hadn't lived there. It was always Christian, who at the time said he was "speaking on Jacob's behalf" who we now know to be the smoke monster / Man in Black...

    Lost: Season Six

    While on the subject, "There's No Place Like Home" is a good episode, but in retrospect, it also contains the most-anticlimactic / disappointing part of the show in many ways to me. The part where the Oceanic 6 actually arrive in LA safely was just absolutely ruined by the flashforwards...

    Lost: Season Six

    Eh, I still don't see any room for interpretation, myself. Finally listened to Bill Simmons' wrapup podcast and he was on with a friend of his, with journalist Chuck Klosterman, and with critic Alan Sepinwall, and the general sentiment was something I agree with. The biggest problem with the...

    Last comment on this, but I also wonder how the "they were dead all along" people reconcile the fact that Christian tells Jack "These were the most important people in your life."

    Lost: Season Six

    So on an entirely different note, I was wondering something last night and can't remember if they showed it to us before. How did Boone start to remember things exactly, to have been able to help Hurley get Shannon to LA to help Sayid?

    Lost: Season Six

    I think the wreckage at the end makes a poor example if you're trying to use that to sell the whole 6 seasons as being purgatory. If that's the case, where are all the bodies that would've been strewn across the beach at the time? I don't want to sound like a jerk or anything, but to me I...

    Lost: Season Six

    I didn't think it was dense or maddening at all. And as for 'breaking its rules', the reason for that was explained.

    Disagree with the last line there by mattCR entirely, because on the other hand, what happened on the island was the only thing that mattered.

    Not sure what else I can say other than wow, what a trip (not just tonight, but the entire ride).

    Lost: Season Six

    Haha, I'm pretty sure I've attempted close to that in the past. I've definitely done it straight through with a season or two of 24 though back in college. Still, 6 seasons is a lot to go through in 4 days like that.

    Lost: Season Six

    Wow, I don't agree with like 45 out of the 50 questions in that list of 50 questions the show still has to answer.

    Lost: Season Six

    Bill Simmons from ESPN actually did an interview with Cuse as well in his 5/14 podcast. If you're caught up, there aren't really any spoilers, and I thought it was a very interesting listen. It even answered a question that some of us have discussed for ages, whether they're making it up as...

    Lost: Season Six

    It seems to have a record of killing everyone that it could that had no benefit to it. My assumption is that at the time it didn't kill Locke, it was because he was a candidate and it couldn't kill him. The list as referenced in the third (and first) season was done by the Others. Ben...

    Okay, I wasn't referring to the backgammon pieces or the pebbles on the scale there.

    Lost: Season Six

    I don't think it really matters too much. I have a view similar to a post in this thread a while ago. Based on the past 5 1/2 years with the show, I think that while yes, the show creators' faith will play into the ending, but it won't be a solely Christian ending, or a solely faith-based...

    Yeah, that's what I meant by that, that they'd get the C4 from Dharma.

    Lost: Season Six

    Not that it matters much because I loved the episode, but after thinking about it some more, I wonder why none of them who knew where Ben, Richard, and Miles were going (as previously mentioned, to blow up the plane), didn't stop to think that maybe the C4 came from the 3 of them, and not Widmore.

    Assuming you don't mean in a bad sense, then yes, I agree, wow.

    Not even 5 minutes before the explosion, Hurley was telling her how unstable the dynamite was.

    For some reason I was thinking that when he got in the limo, Eloise would be there waiting to talk to him. But in general, the structure itself threw me for a loop entirely last night. First when he went to the flash-sideways I assumed it was going to be like "Flashes Before Your Eyes" and...

    Either that or they know that the misdirect won't work if Lapidus is dead. (Not saying I agree or disagree with either theory, just saying).

    I think it was worse here... we had almost constant flood emergency warnings, which at some points were covering up the subtitles for what was being said.

    Lost: Season Six

    I think it's more that people will actually watch it live for once. These days, what other show do most people watch live?
