Lost is back!

Red herrings, much the same way that multiple cast members of "Dallas" were filmed shooting J.R., in order to keep the real shooter's identity a secret.

That and:

As requested in his will, his (Jeremy Bentham's) body was preserved and stored in a wooden cabinet, termed his "Auto-icon". Originally kept by his disciple Dr. Southwood Smith,[11] it was acquired by University College London in 1850. The Auto-icon is kept on public display at the end of the South Cloisters in the main building of the College. For the 100th and 150th anniversaries of the college, the Auto-icon was brought to the meeting of the College Council, where he was listed as "present but not voting".[12] Tradition holds that if the council's vote on any motion is tied, the auto-icon always breaks the tie by voting in favour of the motion.

The Auto-icon has always had a wax head, as Bentham's head was badly damaged in the preservation process. The real head was displayed in the same case for many years, but became the target of repeated student pranks including being stolen on more than one occasion. It is now locked away securely.

Maybe they need Locke to break a tie vote?

I wonder if his head is wax. Looked kind of weird to me.

Part 1 of the 3 hour finale was shown again before parts 2 & 3 with an extended press conference. In the extra footage we learn the identity of the other 3 (of the 8 who made it off the plane in Jack's fabricated story).

Boone died of massive internal injuries soon after making it to the island. Libby died a few weeks later (no explanation of how). Charlie drowned a few weeks before their rescue.

So the math works out now. 8 plane survivors - 3 dead + Aaron = Oceanic 6.

That's relief.........I keep having this feeling that the writers don't know what they are doing or where they are going so my first instinct when I see something like this is to think along those lines.....I so hope I am wrong with my suspicions.

Not the only one- I work with an asian guy that we tease about being bad at math.

Thanks to some assclown on YouTube, I found out who was in the coffin before I even watched the episode. It was in the "Related Videos" list of the one I was watching that wasn't even anything to do with Lost! I glanced down and the still is Locke in the coffin, with the title "Locke is in the coffin." Fvcker.

Has anyone signed up on Octagon and gotten an email? I submitted my info but haven't received anything yet. I wonder if it was eaten by the spam filter.

I signed up and haven't heard back. It's not in my spam filter either.

From what it sounds like, it's something to do with ComicCon in San Diego.

Maybe one of our resident ComicCon people have some more info?
