Lost Season 6 - RE: LA X

Remember when Walt was looking for his son in the jungle and kept yelling WALT

best one

I was going to talk about when Walt went back in time to meet Walt and declared himself to be future Walt, then travelled back to the present, killed Walt, and now wanders the beach yelling that he's disappointed in himself but I couldn't top that

Alright, now someone needs to make a Walt-based spoof of the "Malkovich" scene in Being John Malkovich.

W A L T

ANTICIPATION ON THE WEST COAST

SAWYER IS A STOOGES FAN! I KNEW IT.

this is good

ok this one is already like 100000xbetter than last week

haha xpost

Walt was what smokey saw? I took my glasses off for a split second :(

no it looked like child locke

i was RONG

lil' jacob?

man i hope they dont switch back to bullshit next week

lil jakey

i enjoyed learning fuck all this time

Good stuff this week. I will admit, I was choking back manly tears at the last scene with Katey Segal - nice surprise to see her back. Loved the sideways flash this week with all the gimmicky interactions. Same with Richard and Sawyer's interactions with Dead Locke. Richard, especially, doing a complete 180, completely terrified.

Hope this means we'll continue to get more positive, hopeful stories out of the sideways world to contrast the original timeline - it's almost a breath of fresh air compared to the non-stop desperation and tension of the last couple of seasons (not that I didn't really enjoy them too). S-Locke's encounters w/Hurley, Rose and Ben did get me to smile. It's so weird to see Lost characters actually coming to rational conclusions and acting humanely!

yeah def my fav so far

SAWYER IS A STOOGES FAN! I KNEW IT.

Smokey Cam was awesome

really satisfying episode. the sideways-ben-john meeting was unsettling and bizarre, but in a good way.

yeah until ben kills him in the teacher's lounge

damn look how much better this tv show is when it focuses on a good character

no jack, no kate = my kind of lost

they make you eat your peas before you get your pudding. are the episodes actually good/bad/good/bad/etc or does it just feel that way.

Tonight was my first night to watch Lost on my new big LCD television. I'm still trying to get used to just how different television is in HD. Even Lost was unsettling in HD. Enjoyed this one much better than the last two. It seems like we're getting "Somewhere." After seeing Ben as a teacher are we to assume that everything that did happen on the island never happened in this new timeline?

is it significant that they didn't show kate's name on jacob's cave ceiling? she got a tap from him like the others, i believe.

no jack, no kate = my kind of lost

^^cosign times a million. when jack and kate are the focus of an episode, i find my enjoyment of the show detaches and becomes kind of meta, like "oh great, let's see what jack's crying about this week." but locke and ben have enough gravitas to make questionable writing seem really, really compelling. like ben's speech over locke's grave, that was awesome.

the numbers are back

i think ilana is/was jacob's wife

4 - Locke
8 - Reyes
15 - Ford
16 - Jarrah
23 - Shephard
42 - Kwon (could be either Jin or Sun)

And:

1. Stay until you're 'crossed out'.
2. Take over and become the new 'Jacob'.
3. Leave.

Also there is a creepy kid running around the island who is seemingly above Jacob and Smokey on the food chain, which is weird.

42 - Kwon (could be either Jin or Sun)

start of this season lax difference in names matters now?

l'il Jacob Locke is Aaron, i'in'e?

Is the kid above Jacob?

The numbers thing doesn't make any sense. Does that mean that Jacob, at some point, touched every name on that board, and eventually crossed everyone else out? Can people be crossed out before they arrive on the island? If Jacob likes those six numbers so damned much, why did he wasted everyone else's time?

Is the kid above Jacob?

I assume Smokey and Jacob are equivalent since they balance each other (like the white and black rocks on the scale), and the kid seemed like he was reminding Smokey what the rules were.

Does that mean that Jacob, at some point, touched every name on that board, and eventually crossed everyone else out?

he's been doing it for centuries and got down to these numbers and started broadcasting them?

really wanted to see henry gale or somebody up there

171 - Arzt

did anyone ever check what aisle numbers they were all sitting in on the plane? sure a lostpedia person must have done this...

http://lostpedia.wikia.com/wiki/Flight_815_seat_numbers

lostpedia is MAGICAL

er row nos not aisle numbers lol

well jack is 23 on jacob's wall and on the plane as well, so that's a good catch really!

the white and black rocks on the scale

loved this, took me straight to locke and walt on the beach playing backgammon

the idea of each Number representing a certain person has been a fan theory since season 1.

Here is the cave ceiling:

Here is someone's deciphering of what's there:

yeah i wasn't trying to pretend i was on some new shit... more asking what the previous theories re numbers and passengers were...

on the wall:
TROUPE

love this retcon that the season 1 anagram names (Ethan Rom = Other Man, Gary Troup = Purgatory) were both pseudonyms.

this was such a fantastic episode - didn't feel like a single scene was wasted.

need to think through theories some more but noticed that Austen = not on the wall.

okay sorry someone else alr pointed that out. skim reading is not your friend on lost threads.
