Lost season three - right around the corner

[thecorndogwalker]

Okay, I woke up early and LOST was on my mind. I have to say again that it was one of the best episodes ever. I really wasnt expecting it to be a flash forward episode, but throughout the show I was like saying, "damn why havent we ever saw Jack this bad in the flashbacks before?"

If they are going to do the rest of the seasons in Flash forwards, that is ok with me.

I had to suspend my belief with the fact that Locke saw a teenage Walt, and if it was really Walt on the island he sure did get older quickly in 90 days.... (but it was good)

It does give me hope that they get off the island (well at least some of them) and now i am intregued about how this all plays out. It's exciting, it has me asking more questions... and I think I have faith that the producers will answer alot of the other questions about the island.

Who was in the casket? Im going to go with what GD said, maybe Jacob?

The only problem I have with this show, is that I have to wait until freakin January to watch it.... arrrggghhh....

[Prudence]

I was assuming Walt was Jacob, taking some familiar form? Or that Walt was whatever it is that takes the form of someone the person seeing it knows. Like Jack's dad, Ben's mom, etc...

One other question - why isn't Kate in custody? Does that have something to do with who "he" is?

Saiyd breaking some guy's neck with his legs? Hell yeah! That's what I'm talking about!

Also, EH1812, your Lost recap did not dissapoint. It's brilliant! I felt the same way about Jack's beard. In fact I almost posted about it while the ep was going on.

I am planning on doing the nerdy thing during the off season: take all my saved season 3 eps and have a Lost viewing party over the summer. OK, so maybe I only have 2 friends here in NorCal that watch it... but it'll just recap it for all of us, cause great discussion and uncontrollable arm waving as we try to make our points of argument.

My new new love is this. It is a serious time killer. It also has a good map that I will most likely study with gusto because I have to wait so dang long for season 4 eps.

Ok after watching last nite's finale episode i have a ton of questions. Is Charlie really dead? Remember Locke was shot dead or left for dead after being shot and he returned last nite. I really hope that wasn't the end for Charlie. And why did he have to lock himself in that room anyways? Couldn't he have shut the door behind him and ran with Desmond and jumped into the water? Kate i'm assuming when she told Jack that "he's gonna be wondering where i am" she meant Sawyer. Funny how they showed that clip of them after getting off the island and then Jack saying they have to return to the island. For what i'm wondering? Why would you go back? Plus if it isn't Penny's boat who is it that is coming to rescue them and is Ben right when he said they are bad but then again they were rescued so that didn't make sense.

Life off the island might have been horrible and complicated thus leading to a downward spiral for Jack. It makes me wonder the fate of the of the other Losties after they came back and if the people that truly WANTED to stay on the island (Locke & Ben) actually were able to stay.

Let's give survivors of a horrible plane crash a golden ticket to travel by plane anywhere they want, anytime they want! That's awesome!

Ah, a little silly comparison but didn't the people from Gilligans' Island go back after they were found? Is it some sort of complex that Jack seems to be having, perhaps a survivors' guilt or something to do with his 'hero' label? What happened? What did they leave behind? Is life too real back home and, like Ben said to him, what did he go back to?

Something I caught, is Kate pregnant? They didn't say. Could he be the one who is wondering where she is?

I love all of the comments on here, btw.

I was also quite sad/angry about Charlie dying. I guess the theory about him having to die per Desmonds' vision is it. He had peace with his dying, knowing {thinking} it is part of saving everyone.

It was a man in the casket.

Whose first name starts with J and last name ends with (L)antham?

From New York.

Do we know anyone from NY?

We're also assuming that we already met the person.

Over at Television Without Pity, they are speculating that the name is Jeremy Bentham (and that it is someone we haven’t met yet). There was an 18th century philosopher by that name, and we all know that the producers of Lost have a thing about naming characters after 18th century philosophers….
