And this season, through the highs and lows...is primed to give me a huge showdown for finality between the two.<br /><br />I will say though...I really wished they would have gone the WEIRD DHARMA SCIENCE ROUTE and SECRET OFF ISLAND SOCIETY route ...i feel there is more of a story there...not that I don't get the NAMELESS and JACOB deal, and it's cool....but I think it could have been a touch more sci fi with a hint of "SPIRITUAL" instead of the more "SPIRITUAL" with a touch of SCI FI.<br /><br />I have loved this season so far, best since season 3, but if Jack and John Locke (nameless or not) don't end up on the beach at the of the show with Locke saying to Jack..."DO YOU KNOW HOW BAD I WANT TO KILL YOU?"....then I'll be slightly dissapointed......of course unless it's better then that, which I'm sure it will be :)Acharaisthekeyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00030529545899739445noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6466288276801812505.post-51522076314515284012010-05-03T17:19:17.812+01:002010-05-03T17:19:17.812+01:00I'd be happy with LOST if they answered just 2...I'd be happy with LOST if they answered just 2 questions. 1. What is the story behind Jacob and MiB? 2. What is the island? And, no, I don't want vague quasi-religious answers, or parables, or even short answers like the one Michael gave about the whispers. (Agree AC, Michael's answer just didn't seem to fit the bill, and I think like you there is a lot more to it. What about Christian off island, and the apparitions of the blonde haired boy?).<br /><br />Personally, I don't think we'll get anymore about Dharma (we got a lot in the ARG, and I think the show runners wanted the ARG to satisfy any desires fans had about Dharma), so it will remain this mysterious organization that had its part and played itself out. We may discover that some people in the leadership of Dharma are working with Widmore, but at this point that would be a waste of the few hours we have left. <br /><br />Speaking of wasting hours, how much slower can they move the Alt-timeline? Something big has to happen, and happen quickly. Like a lot of fans, I want the pay-off for the Alt-timeline, and it had better be good--not like Ilana just suddenly blowing up. <br /><br />To bring up one last point I had noted in the previous post concnering Sun's memories of island-Locke and her screamming "no!", are her memories complete, i.e. do they include all that happened on the island, including what we haven't yet seen (last few episodes)? If so, then it's a bad ending on the island.Fredhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01474623954925835867noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6466288276801812505.post-32451487210619499562010-05-03T13:00:21.811+01:002010-05-03T13:00:21.811+01:00Both series are amazing.

That's the current thought about this blog post-Lost.<br /><br />As for BSG, well, that blog hasn't necessarily finished either. There's still Caprica that I have, like Fringe, simply put on hold whilst Lost finishes up.<br /><br />Corellian - Agreed. In bold. Underlined.<br /><br />Cimm - Again, I agree, though I think that question won't be directly answered but hopefully further revelations about what the Island is and how it works will provide some form of explanation about how this 'magic box' idea could be perpetuated.AngeloComethttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05303083576143373383noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6466288276801812505.post-83278029339809668632010-05-02T23:37:58.909+01:002010-05-02T23:37:58.909+01:00As long as we get an answer to what the 'Magic...As long as we get an answer to what the 'Magic Box' is then I'll be happy. Been waiting since season 3 for an answer and apart from one mention in the season 4 finale we've gotten nothing! Also, any further info the following would be appreciated - The vaccine, the volcano and the Hurley Bird.<br /><br />I have confidence that lost will deliver!<br /><br />CimmAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6466288276801812505.post-52319206106350447852010-05-02T12:49:19.564+01:002010-05-02T12:49:19.564+01:00They'd better give Ben a propper ending...They'd better give Ben a propper ending...Corellianhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01879839636851698906noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6466288276801812505.post-11285075578606099072010-05-02T03:16:33.469+01:002010-05-02T03:16:33.469+01:00I am in agreement with most of what you have writt...I am in agreement with most of what you have written. <br /><br />It would be great to have a Claire-centric episode. That would really put a cherry on the sunday as far as Christian is concerned.<br /><br />Funny that you only name two outstanding episodes and one bad one. After it is all over I hope you write a few more entries summing up your feelings about the whole series and revisit certain themes. I am particularly interested in your revised classification of best to worst episodes and seasons and why. How would seasons five and six ultimately stack up to the other four...<br /><br />I hope you do not just close the book on this series with the final broadcast the way you did with Battlestar Galactica.<br /><br />Thanks for taking the past week's hiatus to write these wonderful entries.Andrenoreply@blogger.com
