"LOST" Season SIX/LAST season discussion (spoilers)

Oh my......it is time. Just to start the season off on a nice rumor there has been chatter on the internet (and that is always reliable) that ABC does not want LOST to be finished after this season, even suggesting that they find some way to spin it off if they do not continue with the same cast. I would not like to see a spin off at all because most likely the original writers would not be involved. I would much prefer if they attempt anything in that nature for them to leave the 'end' in such a manner where there could possibly be one or two feature films ala X-Files (but written better)

I didn't know about that.
I wouldn't like that to happen, I just hope they end it with this season.
Look what happened to Scrubs...

Yeah, it started at terrible and stayed there.

I could cry, I have never watched a season as it aired on TV, but i finally was caught up for this one.

And of course it airs on tuesday nights, the nights I have hockey, and my hockey carries through March so there is no hope, and I am not buying TIVO.

I will have to wait a while and really shut off my ears.....damn.

Who else is gonna rewatch the entire series after it's over?

*raises hand*

Sounds like a plan to me...there are so many little details and minor plot points i'm sure i've forgotten from the earlier seasons.  Hell, i can barely keep up w/the story now, let alone remember details from 3 or 4 years ago.

I have to admit, this show moved a lot too quickly for me, I am completely fucking Lost at this point.

I love complicated stuff, so Lost is THE show for me. :D

Extended Italian-American family re-enacts Lost recap thus far.

^LOL at Jack off the island

"Hey Everbody, we're lost."

"what is this, cheese?"

Was the cold soup thing at the start a referrence to Red Dwarf?

this is not a knock on anyone but i don't get how people are lost when it comes to the main plot points up to this point? every episode last season told you when things were taking place.

maybe its because theres so much thats going on and its screws people up? I mean not all of us can think LOST all day and try to retain it week after week.

But I read the recaps of every episode after its done the whole week, so I am prepared for the next episode. Yah I have no life :(

bring down the godhead

best post ever.

Re-watching the whole thing was one of the best things I did recently. Everything made a lot more senses and you actually realize that they do answer questions and that Lost is in fact and awesome show. I still have to watch Season 5 all over again, but I still got time.

I have yet to re-watch any season and have only watched maybe 2 or 3 episodes twice. It is just difficult to find the time to re-watch the season. But after reading post after post about how rewatching the season after it is finished helps bring things back into perspective I think that after the series ends I have came to the conclusion that I will:
                                        A. Buy a Blu Ray DVD player
                                        B. Buy the entire LOST series on Blu Ray and start all over next winter some time
It's intrigued me after reading thread upon thread about Blu Ray DVD's. Are they that incredible? Plus I figure come Christmas Season the LOST Producers will have the series available with all the bells and whistles ready to go.

They re-aired the Season 5 season finale last night (at least they did here).  

I forgot that Jacob got stabbed and then rolled into the file near the end...  

Big question is "who was the 2nd Locke? Or did he somehow twist time so there were 2 instances of him?  (I don't think that they want to take it in this direction though...  Would be weird (an un-original). Maybe they are making an exception because the one instance was dead.

I was always under the impression that the 2nd Locke, Jack's Dad, Ben's daughter.....all the dead but now alive people that have appeared on the island were the mystery man dressed in black that was on the beach with Jacob that told him that he wanted to kill him and would find a way.

Not that big of a question at all.  Remember at the beginning of the episode where Jacob and the other guy are on the beach and the other guy says "You know how badly I want to kill you...  one day I'll find a loophole"   And then at the end when Ben and Fake Locke go into the statue and Jacob says to fake Locke "I guess you found your loophole"   Well, if you can't remember details in ONE episode, how did you ever make it through this whole series? 
 

That is exactly what I think it was as well.

I want to know this:  Is the smoke monster the same as the dead-but-still-around people?  I think yes.  Remember when Locke and Ben went into the temple for ben to face his judgement?  You never saw any copmbination of smokey, Locke, or his daughter together.  First Ben fell, Locke disappeared, then smokey showed up, then it went away and the daughter appeared, then Locke came back.  And the daughter told him to do exactly what Locke wanted.  And think about this:  when Ben "called" smokey to attack the soldiers, it did his bidding and he said he would have to pay a price.  His price was to do Locke's bidding later.  Locke (well, the not-Locke from most of season 5) = smokey.

Also, when Ekko died his brother made an appearance right in between Smokey appearances.

I just wanna know what the fuck this smoke monster thing is!!!

I'm certainly hoping the producers include this as one of the things we will learn in the final season. I have always believed that the smoke monster/dead persons were one in the same. It's like that monster or whatever has the ability to morph into anything it desires all the while knowing the mind and thoughts of anyone it chooses in order to make it possible for it to manipulate them. Kate and the horse, Hurley with the bald imaginary friend. All the smoke monster just effin' with people IMO.

I think with this theory in mind it seems likely that the smoke monster/evil Jacob's rival dude can only take the form of people who have died on the island. Specifically Yemi, Christian, Alex and now Locke. If this is true, then it explains why Ben was manipulated into bringing John Locke back to the island, once his dead body was there, Smokey could take his form. If this is true, the set up for it has existed since Season 2 with Yemi, and I just find that freakin' sweat.

What about Walt? He appeared twice in strange places but he isn't dead.

(snip) Well, if you can't remember details in ONE episode, how did you ever make it through this whole series? 
 

Zing!
Well... in my defense, we missed the beginning of the repeat and I wasn't paying THAT much attention to the repeat either...

Thanks for the explanation though!

Maybe that's why the Others wanted him so desperately and why they made such a big deal about him being 'special'.

SPOILERS
There just been an ad on the radio for the new season and some very interesting dialog:
Locke: 'It's time to answer the most important question in the world.'
Jack (might have been Ben): 'What question is that?'
Locke: 'Why are you on this island.'
Something along them lines.

I still have a hope of seeing what happened to Charlotte after she died.  She died way in the past when the statue was standing, which is I'm assuming when Jacob and his rival were on the island together and they found her (or maybe found by the boat that was just coming there).

Yeah I think Charlotte is going to play a good role in the mystique of the island somehow.  I'm still wondering if the answer to the question 'What lies in the shadow of the statue, He/that which will save/protect us all", can relate to her at all being that whe died in view of the statue and it would cast a rather large shadow. Or is it the dead Locke? Or simply something we haven't seen yet? Interesting. It is also interesting that the season has yet to air and we are closing in on a third page for the thread already.  

Just got my message in a bottle today!
ABC actually sent me two for some reason (hello eBay!) 


On the USB drive I got to watch a short clip of what happened after the bomb went off.
But I won't tell. 

But, here's the piece of paper that came with it (SLIGHT SPOILER ALERT!)

Dude that sucks, you can offload the spare on to me if it'll make you feel better. ;-)

Once again, "Hello eBay!"

^ Very cool
 
But, if everything just gets reversed, I think that's a little lame and too easy a way out!

That is so cool.

pullmyfinger, in Lost you never know what will happen next, so who knows what that message really means...

I do!

Well I don't like it... For the first time I'm scared about Lost. Time travel stuff = ok. Alternative reality = I'm not sure.
