Does anybody know what's going on in the LOST series?

GYRODEC1 · 24-08-2008, 7:22 AM

Hi all LOST fans,

As an absolute massive fan of LOST. I was just wandering what is going on in LOST. As many fans will know this series cannot be watched on Channel 4 damn.

Can somebody fill me in on what is going on?

Thanks chaps!

How long have you got???? Far too much has been going on & the last series & I get the feeling the writers have been winging it a bit!!

this site should answer all your questions. it includes a synopsis of each individual episode

A massive fan with no friends who have SKY1 or net access to acquire content would have the season 3 boxset already and season 4 on pre-order

Polar Bear

That's nothing, I want to find out why they had a statue of Homer Simpson (4 toes) on the island.

Hi guys,

Could someone fill me in on what happens in the 4th Series of Lost as I'm dying to know?

I do know that Lost 4th Series Complete DVD comes out in Sept or Oct, but I would like to know whether anybody has already seen it.

Thanks

Yes many of us have, it was one of the most popular programmes on SKY1 this year and probably also a favored download for those without SKY1 or couldn't wait 4 days

Full episode by episode guide (plus the link provided by unique earlier) on the Lost Wiki but seriously if you are a fan wait a month and buy the DVD.

GYRODEC1 · 27-08-2008, 6:57 AM

Do you think it is better than the 3rd Series?

Cheers

hmmm, maybe there is a connection??

GYRODEC1 · 27-08-2008, 8:06 AM

Maybe Homer Simpson will probably show up in the 6th and final series.

Anyway have you seen the 4 th series and how does it compare against the 3rd?

Thanks

IMO - Its catch 22 - you get a lot more answers in the 4th which is nice, but you start to loose the mystery as it moves on and develops that you had in the 1st/2nd & 3rd! Cant win i guess!

Still brilliant and i envy you in your position of not having seen it!

The third season got bogged down on the three main characters (minus Locke) and that went against the grain of how the show established itself, it took the rest of the season to get itself back on track. The fourth season just flew out the blocks and got better and better leading to a finale that makes season5 highly anticipated.

As for Homer well The Simpsons are happy to spoof anything so why not the family ship wrecked on an Island and he comes across a statue with 5 toes.
If memory serves Simpsons have made fun of the idea of 5 fingered people

nogg · 28-08-2008, 8:37 AM

I don't think you're meant to know what's going on. It's mostly nonsense.

I believe that God is always shown with 5 fingers, they talk about it in some of the commentaries.

What an odd thing to be waiting for: that was one of the few mysteries to be cleared up completely in the early stages. The polar bears were brought to the island to study by the Dharma initiative. The cage that Sawyer occupied when he was captured by the Others (with the "fish bisuit" dispenser) used to hold some of them. When the Others destroyed Dharma and took over all of their facilities the bears either escaped or were deliberately released and have been living wild ever since.

Well that solves that then ! ok what about the shark with the Dhara logo on it at the end of series 2?

Starburst · 29-08-2008, 4:50 PM

Of course that still begs the question how did the polar bear end up in Tunisia (same way Ben did?) and what exactly where they doing to the polar bears, surely not as simple a Pavlovian type test or basic learning experiments.

Dharma are not idiots, it was tagged so it wouldn't effect the sharks environment unlike the idiots who spray "real" polar bears with dark paint which means the seals can spot them a mile off!
Then again it may just have been a joke by the CGI guys

Hello Lost fans,

Even though I'm a big Lost fan, I still can't understand the idea of this Smoke Monster. Is it a part of the survivors imagination or is it real?

What is it's purpose and why is it on the island?

Thanks

Jazz

it's not been explained officially, if anyone needs any info at all on lost, then the lostpedia is the ultimate source, full of facts and fan theories. i think i put the link on page one of this thread

RMCF · 31-08-2008, 10:28 AM

Lets be honest, its a mess. End of.

There are so many unanswered questions in that show that I fear they will never answer them all and leave us with a real bad ending in a few years time.

For me, the last series basically showed us that it has a lot to do with time travel or parallel universes, but with these writers you just never know.

Unsure. Ben seems to be able to 'release' it but not control it. It also can mimic other people.

Homer X.Y.Z · 31-08-2008, 1:46 PM

Lost hmm... since i have Virgin i can't see Lost anymore, Gutted.

GYRODEC1 · 01-09-2008, 6:32 AM

How can Ben release the Smoke monster?

Also, what has Ben got to do with this monster?

Are you trying to say that Ben is actually controlling this black smoke monster?

I don't know, so many questions in Lost to be answered!

Paul O · 01-09-2008, 10:13 PM

Whats happening on Lost? haha - I've no idea, I'm lost too. But then I think thats the point.
