lost anyone?

[iconone]

Just wanted to see if any eic members watch/love lost like I do. To much for me to pick a lost topic so if some one has something let's hear it.
PS lost will go down as the greatest show ever to be on tv!!

[Hayesimus]

there is already at least one thread dedicated to lost fans. Just try the search bar.

[iconone]

Yes I know about the search bar but new post reveals new things about this mysterious show.

[Hondamaker]

I love the show too, and can't wait till the season premiere.

Same here check out youtube lost season 5 if you want to see some good trailers. Some CRAZY shi* is going to going down in season 5!

THere is already a thread on this. Duplicate threads clutter up the board. The other thread already has a discussion about season 4's ending and is the better way to start up talk about season 5.

[acosmichippo]

season 5? Tom Hanks did it in four years. Get on with it already.

[Youngbinks]

Good thinking Hippo. Season 3+ are useless to me. Sadly, because I really did it enjoy it.

[Hayesimus]

useless? tom hanks was on some nondescript island. there were no others, no black cloud, no mysterious illness, no time warp effect, etc. Why am I wasting my breath. If you don't like the show its not like it matters. This is its final season any way. Its not like we need the ratings anymore. Go watch spongebob so you can be intellectually stimulated. :p

Well I'm sure that ratings had nothing to do with the end of the show at season 5. Just look at the ratings from the beginning of the season to the end. Seasons 2 and 3 both had a DECREASE of 5 MILLION viewers from the premiere to the finale. I don't think that is just a coincidence. Even season 4 lost some 4 MILLION viewers. Each progressive season saw less viewers at the premiere and dwindling numbers from there. I suppose that maybe LOST did need the ratings.

I think they have 2 more seasons left 5&6

[Hayesimus]

i think 5 is the last. but if i'm wrong i'll be glad. and I was talking to binks for his blasphemous statement about the useless seasons mainly.

Hey! No one has merged your stream of consciousness meanderings as far as I can tell...:smile:

Like his dog humping a fire hydrant? With pictures? Well, maybe not yet, but I'm sure we'll see the pics soon enough...:laugh2:

I just wish that the networks could run shows like they did in the old days -- run all the new shows, then show the reruns, and then break for three or four months and come back with the new season.

[psylichon]

Agreed, Naps. Television scheduling has gotten so random and loose, it's just annoying. That and they feel the need to advertise for months before a show actually returns because they take so much time off.

Not just Lost either. *cough*24*cough*....

Love them, though. Can't wait for the season premieres.

I think part of the reason is that episodes take so much longer to film nowadays. There's so much more post-production, etc.

[psylichon]

This is true. Shows have a LOT more production value these days than they used to. I remember when a mil an episode for STTNG was considered extravagant.

[acosmichippo]

i can't watch TV anymore for that reason. I'm perfectly content waiting for the DVDs to watch on my own schedule... which is often straight through in one or two days.

[Hayesimus]

same here hippo. only I itunes

[acosmichippo]

well, i take that back... the only shows i watch anymore have no overarching story to them... like shows on the Food Network, Discovery Channel, History Channel... Top Gear... stuff like that. If i happen to catch one, great, but i don't have to watch them in-order, and if i miss one altogether, no biggie.

[iconone]

yeah top gear!!!

[TarekElsakka]

Stopped watching it long time ago. Prison Break sucks too.

Season 5 bump
Any thoughts on season 5?
How crazy was lastnight any thought on whats going on bc i kinda lost (no pun intended). I get that the island is moving back and forth in time but whats going on with charlotte is she having like the same thing and desmond was in the constant? Also the first seen when faraday was back in time when the darma was building the orchid. WTF its crazy i love it!Faradaythat dude seems to be a f n genius!

If you want recaps on every show check out this dude he does great recaps with secrets and things you missed. He will slow down and reverse the wispers so you can kinda make out what they say. Check it out its worth the time.

[Hayesimus]

I'mstill waiting on it to download on itunes so i will let you know shortly...

[The Apple]

Writing the show the way they did allowed them to have any character from any episode, show up at any time on the island. Season 4 was not the best but this first episode of season 5 makes the future episodes look promising. I am sure they will be gripping. (Season 4 rarely made me look forward to the next episode. I am already looking forward to the next episode.)

Commercials. I might start watching it an hour later than it airs, so I can skip the commercials. They must have made a crapload off of all the commercials. It seemed like 5 minutes of programming 4 minutes of commercials.

I have to say they never "got me" last night. Lost has a way of showing characters bodies so you cannot tell who they are until they are "revealed". Most of the "reveals" last night were not that suprising. They were almost predictable.

Things you might have to look forward to. Seeing "Adam and Eve" from the cave. Seeing how the black rock got there and who was on it. Seeing the blast door map, and who all helped draw it up. Finding out what the symbols meant when the clock ran down. The statue. There is a long list of things I could put here.

I am beginning to see how they are going to tie everything together. Remember pushing the button? Now we might just know why someone had to push that button.........to keep the "record" on track. All of the other mysteries tie in. It is going to be interesting how it all happens though. I would like to think that the Oceanic Flight was the future, and they all have to make sure that everyone gets on that flight. And we will be seeing flashbacks of the future.

I am looking forward to this being one of the best put together television series ever, front to back.

.[/quote]

Well the blast door map was done by Kelvin Inman http://lostpedia.wikia.com/wiki/Kelvin_InmanThe dude that was in the hatch when desmond showed up. It was started by the guy before kelvin and was taken over by kelvin when he blew his head off.

Whats the deal with Ms.Hawking?http://lostpedia.wikia.com/wiki/Ms._Hawking
She has been a big part of the show just dont know how or what for. But i will soon enough:laugh2:

[The Apple]

Whats the deal with Ms.Hawking?

Is she Daniel Faraday's mother???????

[The Apple]

It was started by the guy before

Radzinsky was the guy who started the map. I imagine we will look forward to seeing him in this season. I mean, SOMEONE has to tell him to draw it. Right?:tounge:

[iconone]

Is she Daniel Faraday's mother???????

I dont think so bc in comfirmed dead http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8Vvcobm-tkU i think thats his mother but i dont know it could be. Do yall think the baby in the first scene with with pierre chang http://lostpedia.wikia.com/wiki/Pierre_Chang (I think this is him The guy from the orientation videos) could be Daniel faraday?

[iconone]

Radzinsky was the guy who started the map. I imagine we will look forward to seeing him in this season. I mean, SOMEONE has to tell him to draw it. Right?:tounge:

That is true thanks for finding his name.

[Hayesimus]

I loved it. But um... I still need to understand what's happened to claire! If she is time shifting too it would explain her presence in the cabin and the way she was acting in last season... i love this show.

[iconone]

Claire is still up in the air. Some think she is dead some think she is alive me i don't know what to think. The time shifting thing is so odd to me the others don't shift but the losties do but juliet shifts with them. The shi* is so crazy! Check out lostpedia.com you can get lost for days on this site.

Shaddup. Hank's idea of the Others was a volleyball. Please...:smile:

[Hayesimus]

omg! whew! for a second when I thanked naps it didn't say "2 users" and I thought maybe I'd lost my bun in the oven! :S

[Napoleon_PhoneApart]

Are you still thanking for two?

[Hayesimus]

hmmm I just thanked you and it still doesn't say 2 users...

[Hayesimus]

i think that its counting it as 2 against me because I thanked you and one other person and when I tried thanking you again it said I'd used them all up. Then it says I thanked you once on the last post instead of twice. So that would equal my 5... very odd...

[Youngbinks]

Marty McFly and Doc Brown should investigate into this time travel business.

[Hayesimus]

If Sam Becket were here he'd just get all the info he needs from Al and Ziggy.

[Youngbinks]

That one just went beyond me.

Star Trek maybe?

Speaking of, I am actually excited for the new ST movie. I haven't seen an episode of the show but it looks entertaining at least.

[Hondamaker]

[Youngbinks]

You've never seen any episodes of Star Trek?

I have not. It just never really seemed to interest me. It also seemed like one of those shows where you had to watch it from the beginning for it to make sense. I don't know if it is though.

[Hondamaker]

I have not. It just never really seemed to interest me. It also seemed like one of those shows where you had to watch it from the beginning for it to make sense. I don't know if it is though.Other than not knowing the various characters, you really don't have to see it from the beginning.

[Hayesimus]

BTW sam becket was the lead role in Quantum Leap. Guy builds a device that lets his consciousness travel to the past and switch places with someone in history. His brother died in a war and he wanted to go back and save him. Well, the machine screws up and he just keeps jumping bodies throughout time. Each time he's put into a place where he can do something to make the world a better place in the long run. His only companion is AL. He's a holographic projection of a dude in his time. He's the only one that can see AL. To the viewer Sam looks the same at all times. But when he looks into the mirror he see the face of the man, or in some cases woman, that he occupies. It was actually a pretty entertaining show. I think if they were to do something like that now it would be awesome.

Binks didn't.

[Youngbinks]

I think I can honestly say I haven't heard of Quantum Leap. What the heck, I watch TV constantly too.

[Hayesimus]

Don't kid yourself... :p

[Youngbinks]

Do they have the ST series out on DVD at like Blockbuster and such?

I really enjoyed the final episode. Bruce McGill was great as the bartender/????????.

[Hayesimus]

To be honest. I don't really remember it much. I have seen many of the episodes but I dunno if I've seen em all. I'd like to though.

Ep3 bump
Any thoughts on the newest episode of lost jughead?
Crazy how widmore was on the island when he was younger. Dont know how that ties into it all but i know it does somehow.

[psylichon]

Kind of a snoozer of an episode. Treading water till the next one or two I think. We're gonna learn a lot more about Widmore this season, methinks.

[Napoleon_PhoneApart]

I want to see Locke and the smoke monster sitting down to a game of backgammon.

Ill take the smoke monster.

[freakydeaky dutch bastard]

The time "shifting" seems to happen a little too conveniently. I mean, why not take them back a few hundred years or propel them into the very distant future? I understand from a “show creator’s perspective” that would not tie the stories together, but it makes me wonder if that convenience is actually the island or maybe Jacob directing the shifts to make these “connections.” I get a sense that the island or Jacob has an end game other than just protecting its existence and position.

This season is really great so far, jam packed with goodies. The last few were a little depressing. A lot of the mystery was gone. I’m actually excited about the new developments.
