Lost Season 6 - RE: LA X

if what we're seeing in the alt-timeline is smokey's work he seems a lot more inclined to make good stuff happen to people than jacob has ever been.

SO FAR he does. and only sort of...sayid's life isn't that good off island. is sun's? they could all deteriorate yet...we're only seeing the beginning.

Haha most of these characters are not people who make good life decisions left to their own devices. Don't be blamin' Smokey, y'all.

So the big surprise is IT'S A FLASH FORWARD just like that one season finale?

i really don't think it'll be what happens after the island. how could charlie be alive if it's after the present timeline?

or boone etc...whoever else has died.

Maybe if you died on the island it doesn't count

yeah but locke being with helen etc...if it is after the island it would have to be "after" only in the sense that it's basically as if it was before and the island never happened

is there any chance jack is doing jacob style recruiting in the sideways? saves charlie's life, gives locke his card etc...

jack has no idea what is going on!

yeah probably not...he still has his truck tho

i bet he has a bush cd in his truck

in the sideways timeline he listens to barenaked ladies

LOL

The Sideways Timeline is going to be a comedy offshoot of Lost.

Jack going on a booze tour of Napa with Paul Giamatti?

really psyched for this week

/I wonder if it's supposed to take place after the on-Island stuff, except none of them can remember the Island. /

i said this upthread--i believe alternate timeline is what takes place after the finale, not as a direct result of the bomb being set off
--shite new answers (cutty)

yeah i've been thinking the same thing

or maybe it's not what DOES happen after the island, it's what COULD happen after the island and the existence of this alternate reality will be revealed to everyone by either jacob or smokey and then they'll have to CHOOSE

Maybe it takes place after they die, if Juliet could see it in her death throes?

jack has no idea what is going on!

haven't they been dropping a ton of clues that Jack's the one person in the flash-sideways who knows what's up, or at least kind of entered that reality from somewhere else and is kind of out of wack?

Alt-Claire pulled her baybee name from the LOST ether.

there was that 'moment' between jack and frackles at the airport in the alterna timeline, wasn't there? like a look of deja vu or something?

deja fu

also Jack looking confused/dazed in the plane and generally not acting like he did in the Season 1 version of the same scene, and him having to ask his mom when he got his appendix scar, etc.

Also I think Locke kind of noticed something was up when Ben had his back dramatically posed to him before revealing himself, like maybe this was going to be a guy he's seen before.

i really don't see how it could be after the finale...like as i said, why would so many things have reset to pre-plane crash if it was a later date. what would be the point in after the finale being so set up as before the finale? they'd have to go "oh btw this is after" and explanations would be really dumb (not that they are beyond this)

yeah i dunno, i think it could work out that way somehow...all i know is that the flash-sidewayseses better be just the structure of the first handful of episodes like the time jumps last season, gonna be a fucking drag if they do these for the whole season and finally explain them in the finale when we all wanna hear about other/older mysteries.

Yeah the flash sideways needs to go somewhere soon or I'm gonna flip.

Don't think they're gonna take it that far - we just passed the 1/3rd mark for the season, and it seems like they're more aggressively tying the flashes together (though I wonder, if it's going to be a Ben flash, how Sayid and Jin will be involved or if that will just be put on hold).

Still waiting for the Arntz flash. poor guy gets no screen time.

lol. charlie, don't.

At this moment, on a bus, this thread seems to be one if the best reasons for having bought an iPhone

I dig all these time-space freak-out theories so much

I purposely didn't hook up for olympics bc I was pretty busy and knew I wld become addicted no joke. Yet still regret...

island ref!!!

shit just got real

real genius reunion

totally

jesus i forgot about all this commercials

Was just thinking same thing

And how creepy that lighthouse mirror scene was - creeped out even hearing Jack talk abt it

oh shiiiiiiiiiiiiit

The whole time I was thinking "If Ben Linus buys it before either Jack or Kate (or both of them together) get brutally murdered, I'm going to break my television."

just wish he woulda killed that pointless chick.

for a moment in his flash forward i thought he killed principal 'no dick'
