MERGED--> Lost Season 4

[lazarus]

Aaron being part of the Oceanic 6 is about as anticlimactic as you can get.

That promo made it look like all hell is going to break loose. WOW.

 

[U2Fanatic4ever]

hell or something pretty similar.. me thinks..

Good to hear about the Rousseau flashback. The way her wound was filmed compared to Carl's, it was very unconvincing she was killed. I would have guess she wasn't dead even without the bit of new about her flashback.

 

[VintagePunk]

Laz and beeg, you're right--a Rousseau flashback has been guaranteed, but I can't remember if it was for next season or the final one. I swear, though, that I read the same thing more than once. If anybody finds a citation on Lostpedia, do share.

No citation, but I read very recently that there was supposed to be a flashback this season, but due to the shortened season, it`s going to be in season 5 instead. Can`t remember where I read it, but I think the person said they heard it on one of the weekly podcasts from Lindelof and Cuse.

It's funny, none of the spoilers I had read earlier (I don't read them anymore because I discovered that they really do spoil the show) had him listed as being one of the O6.

The final two were always listed as Sun and Jin.

Do Sayid and Desmond know they are on Widmore's boat? I start to confuse what we know vs what the losties know.

 

[phanan]

Yes, they know.

Specifically, besides Michael's story to them last night, the captain revealed it to them on the previous episode.

 

[WildHoneyAlways]

^thanks.

Okay, so Tom (who I was happy to see!) tells Michael the island won't let him kill himself. Maybe the island stopped Jack from killing himself too?

Why turn Michael over to the ship's captain? Michael just told Sayid & Desmond Widmore faked the 815 wreckage.

Personally, I don't believe Sayid just temporarily lost it, and told the captain on a whim, because he was angry, although that's the way they made it seem. I think that either in Sayid's mind, Ben = the enemy, and since he knew that Michael was working for Ben, that automatically means that Michael is up to no good; or that he has a plan of some sort - that perhaps by turning Michael in, he'll gain the captain's trust, and be able to find out more information as to what the real purpose of the ship is.

Sayid's gotta have a plan, right? He's the only person on the island I'd totally trust. He uses good judgment, and is not an impulsive dumb-ass. I really hope he stays consistent to character.

So, Ben is saying that Whidmore staged the crash site, Whidmore's boat captain is saying that Ben staged it. Which one is the bad guy? Hard to say at this point, but if forced to choose, I'd say Ben.

are we to believe Tom is gay? what did that have to do with the story line? plus, I thought Tom got killed during the raid on the beach when the went to get the pregnant women?

 

[WildHoneyAlways]

Didn't Tom tell Kate that she "wasn't his type?" That doesn't mean he's gay of course.

Maybe the island won't let Tom die either.

I'd say that yes, Tom is gay or bi, at least, and that it probably has little to do with the storyline, in much the same way that many of the small details we learn about characters have nothing to do with it.

We only saw him last night in flashbacks that would have taken place prior to the scene on the beach where he was killed, so there's been nothing to suggest that he's not dead.

 

[manthus]

I'd guess that Sayid's hasty decision to turn Michael over to the captain will end up hurting many of his friends on the island. Perhaps, much like Michael, he feels guilty and wants to redeem himself and this will explain why he joins Ben--to fight Widmore who will killed his friends.

That's what you get for cheating, Beeg.

Misinformation!

 

[RavenBlue]

Poor Michael is really having a rough go of it, isn't he..

Really enjoyed last nights ep.

 

[Dalton]

So is Lost not doing that well in the ratings? Is that why it has been pushed back to the 10 spot?

 

[phanan]

It gets good ratings, but the 9pm spot is usually Grey's Anatomy (which gets better ratings), so with it returning, they have to move Lost.

and this is why I have no hope for the future.

oh, yes...good point..Michael's flashback could have been before the raid on the beach.....

 

[EdgeIsTooSexy]

i missed it last night, is it important enough to watch online?

 

[Hewson]

I'm not convinced Rousseau is actually dead, though. Was her wound fatal? I could have sworn the producers said she was getting a flashback episode this season.

.

Of course with 3 episodes not being made, the Rousseau flashdance might get eliminated.
I bet the producers have her in Lost limbo right now, they can leave her dead or have her survive depending on how they choose to proceed.

 

[beegee]

That's what you get for cheating, Beeg.

I have learned my lesson well.

The same thing the straight scenes have to do with the storyline - people's lives.

Why are three episodes not being made?

Tom = gay adds a lot to his character me thinks. And let's be honest, I'm much smarter than all of you.

 

[Hewson]

You did hear about this little writer's strike they had for a few months in Hollyland, didn't you?

The original plan was for 16 straight episodes. When the strike hit, they had 8 in the can and planned to air an 8 episode mini season if no settlement was reached.
A settlement came, but too late to make 8 more episodes, so they settled on 5, condensing this season's story line down according to producers.

We will get those 3 "lost" episodes over the next 2 seasons giving us the promised 48 over final 3 seasons, but they'll be used to expand the later story, so we "lost" some of the season 4 stuff as a result of the strike.

Not too much of a reach, considering Lost's history for dropping clues of that nature.


But. The firs thing I saw on that Lostpedia link is cracking me up:

Age: Unknown, possibly 112

 

[the tourist]

I'm really diggin' this season.

 

[Muldfeld]

I've recorded the latest episode, but I haven't watched it yet, but I just wanted to say that ending where we find out what happened to Jin really broke my heart in a way I didn't think the show could... I was really stunned. That sucks! (sniffs)

 

[waynetravis]

Good episode I thought
Nice cliffhanger too...

 

[VintagePunk]

Damn! I just did my weekly thing where I realized it's Thursday any my first thought was "Lost is on tonight!"

Except, it's not.
