Re: Lost

I totally agree. This reminds me, I really hope they explain the whole "monster" thing soon because that's starting to bother me. Remember how it seemed to rip the plane's co-pilot apart in either the 2nd or 3rd episode of the show? So WTF was that all about? I need answers!

See that's my point. If they dont have an end game in my mind then every episode doesn't necessarily fit with future episodes. If they know where they are going everything can fit together and it will be cool. Otherwise we'll end up with lots of lame answers and non-answers.

Re: Lost

It is about 9 surviving hostages of a bank robbery and it was very well done in my opinion. Well shot and directed and the idea could be good. I am not sure about some of the characters but they should round into form. I can't see how this makes it past a season though. After a while it will be just a soap opera kind of show possibly.

Yeah I can see it being interesting as we find out what happened "in there". That's going to be the hook. Since they only showed the start of the robbery and the rescue 52 hours later no one knows what happened "in there". But how long can that reasonably take to play out? One season at most?

I also hate Scott Wolfe. He is still Bailey and still makes me think he is 15.

Re: Lost

teach him he can't escape, so don't try maybe? i don't know, right not they've completely flipped it from a bunch of bums in dirty huts to a fully functioning modern society, so it's a little to up in the air what's actually happening.

Re: Lost

Remember that the tail of the plane landed in the water...so Ana Lucia didn't necessarily fall from the plane into the water, but did have to swim up from the tail to the beach...

It's only the 1st episode...they usually only set things up, not necessarily explain.

Go to 4 8 15 16 23 42 - LOST Numbers TV Episodes Discussion Forum and read the Seventh Seal Theory. This guy have written a few other elaborate theories, but it's cool to see someone's imagination at work (Handle is Andrew Smith).

I feel like an idiot - I just realized that the numbers 4, 8, 15, 16, 23, and 42 add up to 108...

Re: Lost

I am too, but the 10pm start time is kind of a bummer. While I'll continue to watch, I can see me relying on DVR and watching it the next evening because I'll usually fall asleep between 10 and 11.

Re: Lost

Although I hated the new timeslot, I really though last night's episode was one of the best of the entire series. I don't know if it was worth that long of a wait and all but I really like that it sort of got back to it's old self, IMO.
Maybe the fact that we finally got an HDTV and this was the first time I watched the show on it made it better for me, but I really like where the show seems to be headed for the time being.
