Lost Season 6 - RE: LA X

this thick libby makeup and ponies in pupil details I'm missing is giving me conflicted feelings over maybe getting a better TV.

whatever animal it was it also looked sort of like a person, a southern man

Yeah, I'd be shocked if that kid doesn't turn out to be Jacob.

Why would the kid need to be Jacob? Jacob can already ghost around in adult-form.

I don't know, but come on, look at that kid - that actor was almost definitely chosen strictly for his resemblance to the actor that plays Jacob.

wasn't the earlier theory that the kid was aaron?

no one can see ghost jacob but hurley though

i love how the kid gets under flocke's skin: "DON'T LISTEN TO HIM!" lol

yeah thought that too, would be good if the kid said "smokey has an embarrassingly small penis" or "smokey was bullied regularly as an island child" or something...

throw the desmond down the well, so my smokey can be free

is there a lostpedia page yet for lil guy

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

great page name

Compare/contrast: Desmond's post-shock fearless serenity & Sayid's post-"infection" emotionlessness. Both are kind of "yeah, whatever."

well...sayid is actually dead which could make a diff.

dead is dead!

Now that Ilana is dead, let me quickly summarize the accomplishments of her entire team of operatives:

really laughed out loud at ilana's death ...so glad the black rock is no longer a place for characters to go.

i also lolled at jack 'maybe we could learn something from this experience' shepherd suggesting that maybe going to get more dynamite was not a good idea. also this bit:

hurley: why did you follow me for no reason?
jack: i don't know i think i'm supposed to follow you.. where are you going?
hurley: i've no idea
jack: k

i mean i understand this stuff is basically an in-joke now but srsly this sequence followed by the whispers explanation was really really bad.

so wait can someone help me here? is desmond jumping between the timelines or isn't he? in the last ep we saw him passing out and switching between the two but we didn't see that this week. why did he try to kill locke? i assumed that after locke pushes him down the well he switches back to the alt timeline (and he doesn't realise that it wasn't really locke). or is he just aware of both?

who says locke in the alt isn't mib?

The kid said so. Also he mentioned that he has an embarrassingly small penis.

^^^ *SPOILER* btw

there was that episode where alt-locke was presented as having all the same issues as locke in the other timeline. but i suppose the smokemonster might just want to get free so he can work in a school and chill sure

Worst thing that could happen to the world, no doubt, Richard.

Smoke monster in a wheelchair. I know, I know, it's serious.

locke did seem a bit smokey-esque in that ep with ben...

He seemed pretty normal when he was chillin' with Peg Bundy.

yeah that's true. wasn't there some scene in the staff room where he was sort of tempting ben into thinking he should be head etc? it seemed deliberately meant to be flocke-like...

but i agree he was pretty normal hanging out with his one true love.

having said all this, isn't it now sort of clear that the alt is after the on island stuff? i mean...if these are "memories" that everyone is having.

desmond is the one wearing all black in the alt, btw

isn't it now sort of clear that the alt is after the on island stuff

i wouldn't say that, no

Yeah I don't think that's clear either.

yeah i think its more a bleeding through the boundries thing than memories per se

well...i didn't think that before, i thought bleeding through the boundaries, but surely if you know someone already or have memories...then it happened in the past? i mean...or else how do they explain that? not saying there isn't a way but would require a lot of complexity.

also the way desmond talks about it, like "you had another life" type shit, rather than "this isn't real."

i'm not that staunchly sure of this btw.

I think it's a parallel universe thing. I don't think they are going to try to explain it very well.

yeah prob true...prob why this love thing is making people remember. actually it's prob "that's his/her constant" as an explanation for everything.

i assume libby saying she felt this big emotional rush watching the tv and seeing hurley is similar to faraday crying watching the oceanic broadcast that time?

seriously that explanation for the whispers was so fucking bad

i'd always hoped that the whispers were caused by time/universe bleeding stuff - like the whispers are you hearing ppl walking in the same place in the jungle in a different time or universe and they are all overlapped somehow

also the ghosts in purgatory thing is straight bullshit. in series 2 the whispers always occur before ppl are taken by the others (that air hostess for instance)

b/c the ghosts are tryin to warn u

i guess the problem with a lot of the 'unanswered questions' is that the fans have probably got better explanations for most of it than the writers (probably because they care more)

i'm still confident we won't get a BSG-style ending where ANY fan could have written a better ending

"also the ghosts in purgatory thing is straight bullshit."
i get the feeling it will be revealed in the show to be bullshit when Michael's advice turns rotten for Hugo.

yeah but makes no sense. the whispers happened when walt appeared and he wasn't even dead!

because the ghosts are tryin to warn u

ah that makes sense, thanks.

Mysterious Boy is clearly Spock and the island is the Genesis planet.

ah that makes sense, thanks.

yeah either that or "o lol ghosts do u see" is some sorry-ass bullshit. one or the other.

i like the way someone actually said "that's not important right now" in this ep, forget who

It was "Michael" -- something about "Michael" makes me think it's an impostor, probably his never once mentioning "WAAAALT"

"Hurley, who are you talking to?" FUCK OFF

"That's not important right now" FUCK OFF

"What's over?" "Everything" FUCK OFF

every other question asked in this episode FUCK OFF

Michael: if you ever do see Libby tell her....I'm very sorry
Hurley: i'll be sure to do that. oh...what about Ana Lucia?
Michael: nah she was annoying remember?

groaned out loud when Ilana said she was going to the Black Rock. hope Richard really just couldn't be bothered despite being unkillable and DESPITE there being weapons at the barracks still and DESPITE them having guns so why not just shoots the plane tyres.

SHUT UP

seriously anyone who is still complaining about this show should gtfo of this thread.
