Lost Season 3 Discussion Thread

[Jessie]

Mittelos is an anagram for "lost time", Aldo was reading A Brief History of Time last night, specifically the chapter on black holes and how they can bend time and space, and Mr. Friendly/Zeke/Tom mentioned to Jack last night that ever since the hatch blew and the sky turned purple that getting Ben off the island is no longer a possibility.

Think that the island is outside the normal Earth timestream now?  Seems that way...

Interesting.

This also explains last night's conundrum of why a 27 year old woman's uterus looked like a 70 year old woman's uterus.  If this woman had been in a timestream that moved much faster than the normal, she would have aged faster.  Or something like that.  This narrative device could also be employed when they finally bring Walt back on the show, since he will be much older in real life and they will have to address that.

I had forgotten about Michael and Walt.

Just watched it.  Good episode.  I just knew from the moment whatshername said she wanted her husband hit by a bus that a hitting by bus was coming.

Yeah, I wasn't too surprised by it either.

[Gamplayerx]

I still jumped.

Walt-esque powers of Juliet or conspiracy?

I was convinced

Ben is her sister and only a sex change could get her pregnant and save her from cancer


WE NEED MORE NIKI AND PAULO

[Beefy]

Yay!

[Beefy]

Desmond!  Desmond!

[Bishamonten]

Yay!

Why aren't you in my girls and sea creatures thread, beef?!

[Jessie]

Yay!

Why aren't you in my girls and sea creatures thread, beef?!

I recommend it.  A++++++++ thread.  Would click again!

[Jessie]

What just happened there?

[Jessie]

Da da Duuuummmmm

[Beefy]

Okay, for whatever reason I lost the ability to access Junto via my laptop during the show last night.

Good episode.  Nice shot in the arm, conceptually speaking.  Bet there were quite a few Easter eggs in there.

[Jessie]

I thought the Charlie storyline was gonna take that turn after seeing him on Jimmy Kimmel or some other crap show the other night.

[Beefy]

I say good.  They've really made Charlie an unsympathetic character time and time again.

[Jessie]

Yeah, they kinda have.  And last night Desmond became (to me at least) a far more real and sympathetic character.

[Beefy]

Oh yeah, I'm building a total mancrush on the Desmond character.

Did you notice the two songs they played during the episode last night?

I've never seen the show, I don't know who the heck you're talking about.

But that's kinda hot.

I can't remember.  What were they?

Well, they played the Mama and Papas tune that we first heard the first time we entered the hatch and discovered Desmond.  That one played twice last night.

The other song?  Sarah McLachlan, "Building a Mystery"  I LOL'd.

Sara MacLachlan is "autopilot" for "heartfelt" or "girl troubles" in JJ Abrams television shows.

I just finished watching it.  I'm really surprised.  I didn't check but it really feels like a Brian K Vaughn storyline.  However, the first Eko episode was fan fucking tastic as well and look where it got him?  They start strong and then they just throw it away.  I'll be shocked if the Desmond storyline resolves with any coherence - or better yet, knowing the main writers, at all.

[Kristine]

I read an article last night that said LOST had its worst ratings yet.

The show has gone downhill for me.  It's just horrible.  They're all over the place, no clear goal, and it's just confusing and boring.

They need to recapture Season 1 magic somehow.  They left way too many unanswered questions from Seasons 1 & 2, and I get the impression they forgot about it.

When will the giant foot statue thing be addressed?  Ever?

[Jessie]

STRANGER DANGER!!!!!!!

I read that same article, or one similar. 

[DownSouth]

I saw an interview with that hobbit guy and he said they had written a beginning and an end but didn't really have much of a middle.
