Television Lost: The Final Season

Great episode, felt like it flew by.

Liked how the alt timeline's going - Everything intertwining.

Confirmation that Christian on the island = MIB was good to get IMO.

Was happy to see Sun and Jin back together, if only to get rid of all that annoying 'where's Jin!?!!' stuff.

'Who the hell is Anakin' :lol:
 
Good episode -
better paced than all the previous episodes this season. How exactly are they going to kill Locke?
 
Decent episode

I wonder if that scene at the end mean that Jack has also become like Claire and Sayid? Interesting the way he says "You're with me now" to him. Could just mean as everyone else is dead he is with him though.
 
It's building up nicely.

Did anyone else think "The fence, watch out for the fence!" when Jin and Sun ran to each other? :lol:

lol yeah I was just expecting both of them to drop dead just before they touched each other due to that fence!
 
So MIB is Christian huh? There has to be more to this.

Why did he appear to Michael on the freighter? How did he even get on the freighter if he can't cross water? We heard whispers as well before he appeared, maybe that was actually ghost Christian?

Also remember the episode where Hurley looks into the window of Jacob's cabin? He sees Christian on a chair and then an eye looks back at him. Who the hell was that eye then?
 
I'm still impressed they've managed to imbue Jack and his son's relationship with such reality in such a paltry amount of time...

Would be odd if Jack is now converted to the dark side...He seems like the only person actually willing to try and stop Locke, and for him to flip flap again now with only what..4 eps left? would be a bit needless...I'd rather he be set on it now and the final few eps deal with him dealing with it.

Yes I thought Jin/Sun would run into the pylon things....why were they speaking in English?...Doesn't really matter..

Claire/Hurley/Sawyers/Widmore's motivations seem a bit brass at the moment

Why would claire leave the person who's looked after her for 3 years and believe the person she's hated all that time in a matter of seconds?

Why does Sawyer think Widmore is a better chance to get of the Island than Locke?..Widmore's just arrived and previously tried to kill them all, whereas Locke genuinely does want to get off the island...that makes little sense

And Hurley was Jacob's emissary and wanted to talk to Locke...why's he suddenly going with them now?...eh?

Why does widmore think blowing up stuff will help anything? He knows what the monster is...and his goons are absolutely fecking pathetic...bunch of fat extras and a middle aged woman. I hope they all die.

Jack looks like the only person with any kind of brain cell....but there you go

Good ep in all though...moved things forward nicely for the next two eps which are going to be fecking epic..trust me.

Locke needs them to get off the island and Widmore wants to stop him, Sawyers plan is to steal the submarine, not get Widore to help them. I think his reasoning is that by making a deal with Widmore he could infiltrate their camp and steal the sub whereas going with Flocke they would be led straight in to battle which they want to avoid. At least that's my take on it, trusting either of them on their word would be stupid but widmore has the sub.

The son thing is interesting, I don't trust him, I keep thinking he's going to reveal he's some kind of manifestation of the island or Flocke or something.

I'm kind of hoping Flocke gets off the island now, they could have a whole spin off series with his adventures back in the real world :drool:

:lol: Yes.

Confirming Smokey was acting as Christian was coo. His loophole all makes sense now, from a blog I read:

He was the one who told Locke to "move the Island" - which in turn resulted in all the time traveling escapades of our Survivors... which in turn resulted in the Others thinking that John Locke was some sort of "chosen one"... which in turn allowed Anti-Jacob to take his appearance when his dead body returned to the Island... which in turn allowed Anti-Jacob to get close enough to Jacob to convince Ben to murder him... thus completing his loophole.

Jack was the only logical person in the episode, he's on the right track I think. I like how the whole thing could still tip either way. Is there a 2 week break now?
 
Good episode. Everything messing with my head as usual.

Firstly, i'm starting to get the feeling that none of the survivors are going to turn out 'evil,' as such.

Claire i think has made her choice now, and is quite sane again. And in reply to Mockney's question as to why she would listen to the person she's hated for the last 3 years. Well, she only found out Kate took Aaron when they got back onto the Island, right?

Desmond is very likely to be alive still i think, and convinced Sayid not to shoot him or align with Locke. Maybe even revealed what the feck was going on to Sayid, as he seemingly knows.

Jack, well he does what he wants to do, he doesn't follow any one. He jumped off the boat because he felt that he still needed to be on the island to stop Locke. He might be "with" Locke, but i can't see him aligning himself with him.

I think we're about to see the conclusion of the other timeline unfold also, or get some answers from it at least.

I can't believe there's only a few episodes left and we still have no idea where this is going.
 
Great episode.

I love all the references to the earlier seasons.
This time with Jack after the explosions.

Claire/Hurley/Sawyers/Widmore's motivations seem a bit brass at the moment
Claire wants to see Aaron again, I think that's pretty simple. Sawyer just wants to get off, he's been there for an age. Widmore wants to regain control of the island. No real idea about Hurley.

Why would claire leave the person who's looked after her for 3 years and believe the person she's hated all that time in a matter of seconds?
So she could see her son. Although there's something fishy about her still.

Why does Sawyer think Widmore is a better chance to get of the Island than Locke?..Widmore's just arrived and previously tried to kill them all, whereas Locke genuinely does want to get off the island...that makes little sense
Sawyer said he was playing Widmore and Locke off one another. In the battle he planned to steal the sub. Don't know how he's going to do that now.

And Hurley was Jacob's emissary and wanted to talk to Locke...why's he suddenly going with them now?...eh?
Talking to Locke was Hurley's idea not Jacob's. Richard called him on it but Hurley bluffed his way through. Actually what's Richard and co upto?

Why does widmore think blowing up stuff will help anything? He knows what the monster is...and his goons are absolutely fecking pathetic...bunch of fat extras and a middle aged woman. I hope they all die.

Jack looks like the only person with any kind of brain cell....but there you go

I've tried to answer your questions in bold.

Enjoyed that episode, but to be honest I wasn't bowled over by the ending.
 
Great episode ! Seems like Jack is The Last Recruit (title of the episode)
 
Good episode again this week. They've set the final few episodes up nicely. And now a 2 week wait...
 
Just read something interesting on the LOST board.

Someone thinks that Jack operating on Alt-Locke is what will enable him to walk after the plane crashes in S1. A merge of the two time-lines.

Also another thing I read that is interesting is the way the characters seem to be heading for a reunion at the hospital much-like a reunion on the island.

I think that as well.
 
Great episode yet again.

It was almost as exciting as a season finale for me - gripping stuff and everything now coming together. The alt timeline stuff is definitely something to do with events that are occuring in the present day timeline. I think Jacob has been important in shaping events there. We haven't seen him for a while, but I predict he'll be responsible for the events there having a part in resolving the Smokey conundrum in the island timeline
 
Personaly:

I do not think MIB has claimed Jack, I reckon the writers are just sending us the wrong way again. That or Jack will be different in some way and be the one to prove Jacob right and thus ending it once.
 
Jack clearly has some major thing to do...He's the main character really isn't he..and he's has been virtually sidelined this season. Hence I think he's there to do something significant and The Flying Emo is probably right
 
Jack seems to be the one that feeling the most connected to the island. Seems a natural conclusion to think that he will be one of the strongest candidates to replace Jacob or whatever is going to happen
 
Possible future spoilers.

Also, wasn´t the guy who played Jack the only character that knew how it was going to end for a while? Could well signify that ending will revolve around him in a big way.

He also said he wasn´t hapy with how it ends.

Or i may have just made all this up, not sure to be honest.
 
You're right Mathew Fox was the only cast member to be told how it ends, though I dont remember him saying he wasnt happy with it?

Bloody hell, give a warning when this is the sort of spoiler you're giving. It's not unreasonably to assume that every spoilered post after a Lost episode is about the Lost episode, or at least not something that couldn't be reasonably deduced by watching the actual show.

I don't particularly care, but I can imagine that some people wouldn't want to know that.

Edit: At least you showed more tact than the Potato. :wenger:
 
Nobody gives a shit, people just post everything in Spoiler tags because they can't be arsed saying what it's about. That's why Spoiler tags should be used for future episodes, or people who don't flag up what their spoilers are about should be infracted.

Edited.

Although, i usually hate spoilers, but i honestly don't think it was that bad. What i did there was put 2 and 2 together based on two things that was common knowledge to most people. Simply a fact that was known by most people anyway, combined what was currently happening in the show.

It's hardly effort to put a warning though, so i'll do that in future instead of feel the wrath of cafe.
 
You and I didnt post any spoilers...I dont get what his problem is. Fox knows the ending, it was reported during like S4..how its a spoiler I do not know.

Though he may be on the wind up
 
I think it's just that time where people are going to start get antsy. We want answers but don't want to be spoiled. At the same time, if someone puts a spoiler tag in their post and doesn't give info about its content then there's trouble. But if too much info given about the spoiler content then it becomes a spoiler in itself so there's trouble. It's just because we're so close to the end that it's very difficult to tip toe around!

Have you read what was in Woodzy's spoiler? There are no spoilers.

Yes I read it, I know it's fine. But like I said it's so hard to tip toe around what might be considered a spoiler and what isn't so people just chuck everything into a spoiler, but sometimes without indicating what might be in the spoiler. But sometimes being too exuberant in indicating what the spoiler is is a spoiler in itself.

It's a grey area.

I can understand that but I dont see why niMic flipped at what Woodzy and I were talking about seeing as its in no way a spoiler.

But he was most likely going on the wind up.
 
Maybe we can set some spoiler rules and get a some form of "please read spoiler rules" message put in the title or something. Otherwise i can see situations like this getting alot worse over the next couple of weeks.
 
we're so close to the end now..lets not stumble, unintentionally or otherwise on to clues which may give away the ending. Lets use a STFU policy and just talk about eps which have aired
