Lost: Season Six

[Drake Tungsten]

My mind is still reeling. Three characters who have been around since episode one, dead dead dead. Another character who was 97% pure awesome, and 3% top-quality 80s cheese, dead. Just like that. Baiting us and baiting us with Frank and the plane, and then: surprise, *****es! Can't believe you fell for that ****!

And yet Noel Murray gave the episode an A- and is *****ing about the show spinning its wheels. I'm not going to read the comment thread over there because I'm terrified of spoilers, but I hope they're raking him over the coals.

On a related note, Nashville is in no way one of the "great American cities".

He effectively sacrificed himself to save the others, but the island shouldn't have let him do it because it was still technically suicide.

The Island was done with him. Would the bomb have gone off if Sayid hadn't run off with it, though? If the candidates can't kill themselves, then maybe Sawyer didn't cause the explosion by trying to disarm the bomb, but Sayid caused it by taking the bomb far enough away from the candidates for it to explode without killing them directly.

I'm actually desperating holding on to the 0.2% of me who thinks they are gonna pull a Jin-on-the-freighter with Lapidus.

That would be utterly ridiculous, but also awesome and welcome. I want him to just appear out of the jungle in the season finale, deliver the coup de grâce to Smokey and then utter a cheesy 80's one-liner...

"Didn't anyone ever tell you that smoking is bad for your health?"

If the candidates can't kill themselves, then maybe Sawyer didn't cause the explosion by trying to disarm the bomb, but Sayid caused it by taking the bomb far enough away from the candidates for it to explode without killing them directly.

Since Sayid died already, I suppose that his name would be crossed off the list losing any protection of being a candidate. However, I don't believe that Sawyer trying to disarm the bomb would have saved them. That was what Locke wanted them to do. The island won't let them commit suicide or let Smokey kill them, but if they do something stupid without the intent to die, then they are in danger. Had Sawyer, Jin, Hurley, or Sun instead run off with the bomb thinking they would die to save the others, then maybe it wouldn't have gone off.

[Krill]

Please please please tell me Kate dies?

[Krill]

...I want that crying smilie.

Thus episode is just so sad Is Sawyer dead? They are all BASTARDS if that is true, after what they did to everyone else.

[rah]

Thank god the show is coming to an end. They're quickly running out of likable characters.
But despite that complaint, KATE MUST DIE.

[Guynemer]

I'm not entirely convinced that Jack was right to let the bomb run out, frankly. Not that it matters.


-----------------------


James is the brains;
Jack is the looks;
Hugo is the wildcard;
Kate is the useless chick.



Only five original cast members are left... this has been a brutal show.

[Krill]

I'm getting to the point where I hate the LOST producers. If Kate doesn't die by the last episode I'm going to be so pissed.

[Dr Strangelove]

You know, wouldn't the proper way to defuse a bomb like that be to remove the blasting caps?

Wasn't Sawyer breathing at the end?

I hope Sawyer was alive!

Apparently the awesome adventure theme is called "Hollywood and Vines."

[Guynemer]

No.

It will always be the Awesome Adventure Theme of Awesomeness.

[Drake Tungsten]

Sadly, I don't think we're going to hear it this season.

[Guynemer]

There's still 4.5 hours of show left. I bet we'll here it when Richard, Ben, and Miles reappear.

[Drake Tungsten]

My only hope is that they'll play it when Jack, Sawyer, Hurley and Kate set off into the jungle to find Desmond.

[Guynemer]

Didn't really enjoy the first half. Like, at all.

Got decent in the second half, but not great. No doubt AVC will give it an A- or something.
