Arrrrggghhhh - I NEED it - not want it!

There has never been a tv programme that has grabbed me quite like Lost.

PKea · 18th June 2007, 09:07

Only 3 seasons left then its all over

We will found out the answers at the end of Season 6

I don't understand...why did Charlie lock himself in the wee room? If he'd been on the other side of the door he would presumably have survived.

Yes, but desmond wanted to get in the room to see Penny, and if he did the whole place would have been flooded, instead of the room only.

Then ,when has anything made proper sense in the series?//

Close.
Charlie got written out for being a naughty boy *sniff sniff*.
They tend to kill people off who have been naughty

Apparently not - according to the producers he 'may' be bought back in flashbacks and as a 'spiritual guide', and they were sorry to have to let him go, but felt that it was inevitable since Desmonds first premonition - apparantly!!

I did think the same about the 'wee room'. The door closed from the inside, so he would have had time to get out of the room and pull the door shut against the torrent of water, as it would actually have helped to shut the door.

Also, as there was a dirty great hole in the floor, the water in the room - with the door shut - would only have come up to the top of the porthole - above that (assuming the room was airtight, which is a fair assumption seeing as the water didn't escape) would be air. Enough for him to breath and hold his breath while he pulled himself through the hold and floated to the top.

...unless he didn't want to survive as it was his destiny to die, and maybe he thought that if he didn't die the rest of Desmond's premonition wouldn't come true, and then Claire et al, would not be rescued. Just a thought.

It was a poor ending to series 3, imho.

dave · 18th June 2007, 09:50

...oh, the producers and writers have also said that not all questions would be answered by the end of the 6th series!!!

What does that mean!!! - Will we ever find out about the Polar Bears, the Smoke, Jacob, etc...? I doubt it - I don't think they expected the series to be this sort of success and are making it up as they go along

I can't bear to have to wait until Feb. Get those lazy actors out there filming again!!

I agree. Not in the same league as the hatch cliffhanger at the end of season 1. That was almost like an experiment by the producers to see if it's actually possible to die of curiosity!

Curlyben · 18th June 2007, 09:54

The Polar bears are easy.
They where referenced in one of the Dharma films about what the numbers mean (Mythology of Lost - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia)

As For season endings, Only S1 was good,
S2 was a proper anti climax.

I think some eps are good and some boring.
Personally I think they are padding out the eps with the previous life detail.

Also whos in the box at the funeral?
I think Jack, and i have a longwinded reason why, and also a therory on the island, but doesn't everyone who has been watching.

When is it due to air on Sky, is it going to be the weekend after? or will I have to download from the US to be up to date

PKea, it can't be Jack as he was "outside" the coffin.

Care to try double or quits.
The paper he was reading was really printed, with the announcement, in the states. It was the LA times from April this year.

dave · 18th June 2007, 10:16

You think Jack is in the coffin?

It's a tricky one. They are in a 'black' area, which may suggest that the person in the box was Micheal, Eko or Walt; although when Jack told Kate that he thought she might be there, she seemed shocked that anyone would think she would be - she said (something like), "why on earth would I be there?", which implies that she didn't like the person who is in there.

dave · 18th June 2007, 10:18

The newspaper was this: http://www.lostpedia.com/images/0/0f...2007-338px.jpg

Robertxc · 18th June 2007, 10:25

I think it was Ben in the coffin.

No one actually likes him, which is why no one was there.
Jack was there because Ben was his patient.
For some reason Ben left/was forced off the island, which caused his tumour to come back.
Why on earth would Kate want to go to Ben's funeral?

dave · 18th June 2007, 10:35

But if he had changed his name, why/how would Jack know what it is, and why would Ben have told him?

Also, it looks like it was in a predominently black area of LA.

According to the leaked transcript of the newspaper, the man who was found hanging was preceded by a teenage son - Micheal is the only one who has a teenage son, and Kate understanderbly wouldn't want to attend his funeral as he betrayed them all in exchange for getting off the island.

Maybe he was overcome with guilt about that fact, and that is why he hung himself when the other 'losties' got off the island.

Jack may have been suicidal after hearing about his death, as he wants to get back to the island, and maybe Micheal knew how to get back there, and so now Jack's hopes of getting back are lost.

What you have to remember is that you haven't seen what leads up to this.
It was Jacks decision to make the call on the island, which led to the island being invaded, which p'eed the people off.
Without going longwinded my theory is, Island all people are dead, its heaven, hell etc, parallel lives carying on as if they stayed alive.
The funeral and subsiquent images are spiritul visons (ghosts). ie Jack visiting his funeral (bit like scrooge, ghosts of past present and future)

Its TOO early on a monday to get deep on this for me, Usually alcohol is involved in my theories too
