Apart from America's Next Top Model which is on tonight & I can't wait!
Turns out the first series is 25 episodes and they're talking about more series (no idea how to make that a plural - serieses or seri??). I thought it would fit the formula of: crash - solve mystery - get rescued - live happily ever after but perhaps not. One theory among U.S. audiences, apparently was that the 'survivors' died and are now in purgatory.
Do you reckon it would be possible for the survivors of a plane crash to go unfound for more than a week or so on a desert island ?
I'm a week ahead - is anyone else?
How come Mr Luck could suddenly walk again?
How did he get all those knives checked in?
Why did he not get killed by the monster?
Why, when he was at the memorial service, did he suddenly look so much better and not like he'd just been in a fight with a boar/monster - no blood, fit as a fiddle?
And why are they not getting sunburnt?
Thank you
:-)
I wondered about Locke's 'miracle' walking - from the opening scene, where he's wiggling his toes experimentally, I was waiting for the story behind it. I suppose it depends on why he couldn't walk in the first place. I suppose, if the injury had been neurological, a bang to the head could have reinstated whatever bit of wiring had gone awry Either way, if he'd been confined to a wheelchair for a period of time, his leg muscles would surely have weakened.
With the knives, I think the airlines let you put pretty much anything in checked baggage. He'd not have been able to access his knife case from check-in to baggage reclaim so his knives would pose no threat. Seems a bit odd to carry them at all, though.
I suppose the story of his encounter with the monster will be revealed in a future episode. No idea how he cleaned up so quick, maybe the blood looked worse than it was?
Is Locke really an ex-colonel or just a majorly weird fantasist? He kind of proved himself with the boar, though.
The 'no sunburn' thing is weird. Maybe the plane was carrying industrial amounts of spf20? No heatstroke/sunstroke either.
1. We don't know how he can walk again so suddenly. What mystifies me is that he can do so much - if you'd been in a wheelchair for a few weeks never mind years, your muscles would be v weak.
2. Locke checked the knives into the hold, not the cabin.
3. Pass. It's something to do with him seeing the 'heart of the island' (won't say too much as will spoil next week's).
4. Erm, didn't notice. He's had that vertical cut since the beginning though.
5. They show them staying out of the sun a lot (sleeping). I think they must have found suncream in the luggage. Comes up briefly in next episode.
I do know exactly what you mean though. For an older man, there's definitely sommat about him.
Bet no-one votes for Hurley (the fat bloke, who says 'dude' a lot)! ;-)
The "monster" reminds me of Michael Bentine's flea circus where all you could see were little puffs of sand as they moved about - strangely terrifying.
Jack Shephard - Dr
Kate Austin - Dr's lady love with a shady past
Charlie Pace - druggie Brit
Sayid Jarrah - Iraqi
James Sawyer Ford - hoarder
Michael Dawson - guy with the kid
Walt Lloyd - kid
John Locke - colonel of the knives
Shannon Rutherford - spoilt brat
Boone Carlyle - stepbrother of spolit brat
Hugo Hurley Reyes - fat bloke
Jin-Soo Kwon - Korean husband
Sun-Soo Kwon - Korean wife
Claire Littleton - pregnant babe
So I deffo fancy Sawyer, mta but he supposedly hates his long hair which I find most attractive.
Michael Bentines Pottytime. You couldn't see them but could only hear them. Or see footprints in the snow.
I had a quick scan of this thread to see if this had been alluded to already but I've got spoiler paranoia now (and that better not be true, McG!).
Good series though (typical nearly all being so good looking though), I likes it and hoping it gets a lot more weird.
I'm really enjoying Lost - a little weird but interesting. I think you need to forget all the rules than normally apply (ie sunburn) as I don't think the island is quite right (polar bears?)
There seems to be a bit too much male totty and not enough female totty though. Whatever happened to foxy air stewardesses eh ?
Were all the pax that survived in the middle part of the aircraft? The tail is shown breaking off in those flashbacks, and the front end is somewhere in the jungle. Why haven't they gone back to the front bit to scavenge for supplies?
What do you think is the 'cause' of the plane breaking up? There was someone saying on that 'Lost: Revealed' programme that the plane was crashed on purpose.
From what we've seen, I think it looked like a structural fault for it to break up in mid-air.
Are there more survivors on the other part of the Island?
One thing I like about the hoarder, Sawyer (had to read back through to check his name, nice name though) is the way he sits on the plane seat on the beach, reading his book and letting it all happen around him.
Is Kate Dr Jack's 'love interest'? But Jack is mine...sob sob sob ;-)
Its like Twin Peaks was good for a while and then it just went mad.
If the turbulence happened suddenly, the cabin crew won't have had a chance to sit down & belt up so would have been the first to die by getting sucked out when the aircraft depressurises.
Was there a hijacker?
I like the way each episode leaves us with questions.
I like Saeed's idea that there must be a power source on the island. That would imply some kind of 'settlement' - again, I vote for French animal experimentation.
Why can't 'Lost' be shown at, say, 8 pm? Can barely keep my eyes open today - can't cope with being up till midnight anymore ;-)
