Previously...on LOST!

[OumaFan]

BTW I noticed Michael's name was on the cast this year.

Was it on there last year? He wasn't on the show at all last year was he?

[OumaFan]

WTF El Gamo I was expecting a long post from you with lots of exclamation points and smilies by now.

[El Gamo]

Yeah my man Ouma,I have so much I want to write but I'm going to rewatch the episode and get back to you guys.Needless to say,ALOT happened and it was superb but for once,I have a gripe. It took the Losties 40 minutes to ask who those peeps were!WTF?!Waayaayyayaya too long. Other than that,super stuff as per the norm. I'll post here again later.

[AdamGB]

They always beat around the bush when it comes to asking important questions...

[El Gamo]

YEAH i AGREE WITH YOU Adam. I thought it was an excellent episode,some points I've read/noticed myself:

Is Miles a time shifter too? When he entered the house to perform his exorcism or whatever you want to call it, the camera zoomed in on the pics of the black kid. When he left, the camera once again zoomed in but this time the pictures were in a different order?!

The well spoken Englsih lady is working with Widmore(Penny's dad). Both Anthropolgists,both strong english accents,give away imo. The mind blowing part of this though,the bear.In Tunisia?! She KNEW what she was looking for,she went directly for the Dharma tag.It's the whole time angle,the time on the island is not conventional time which we live by. I've been saying this since I heard about it in season 2 and it appears to be correct.

The Physicist is creepy but really cool. Him crying when he saw the crash.maybe he's been to the island,its all happened before but he couldn't remember?

As for Naomi and Abbadon,who is awesome,meeting. Well,Naomi certainly knew alot,but they were being hired out.By whom? And what made the 4 that landed on the island want to get there so bad?

The huge moment:they are only there for Ben?! So why the heck are the Losties going to protect him?Huge shock that was.And he knows them too. I believe this had to do with the purge. Dharma hiring these skilled individuals to get them back to the island.A Moving island, which exposed it's location at the end of season 2 when Desmond turned the hatch key?

I'm 100% sure that the "mole" Ben has on the Freighter is Michael. Think about it:his name is on the credits. Ben gave him co-ordinates but they were not to get off the island, they were to the freighter. He made Michael a deal,that he could go,get Walt to safety but maybe Mike wanted to save his friends? I say this because Walt would want to know how he got him back. He could not live with the guilt so he wanted to help out? No idea but it's definitely Michael imo.

I believe Abbadon is a part of a neo-Dhamra wanting to get the island back from Ben after the purge.The only problem with this is,the picture they have of Ben appears to be OFF ISLAND?!! LIKE AN AIRPORT!! Maybe Ben isn't as close to the island as we thought?!

Good stuff and there are going to be,hopefully,13 episodes this seeason,not 8,because the Writers strike has now finished! Good times!

It was brilliant! Again! Best show on telly.

I think the 6 will be....

Jack
Kate
Hurley
Michael
Jin
Sun

I think it was Michael in that casket.

I don't see Locke leaving the island. I also think we will see Michael alive (at some point) and he will do something really bad.....hence Kate saying 'why would i want to go to his funeral'

[LukeH]

woah, that episode was interesting! so Sayid is number 4 of 6...not too big of a suprize for me, i cant wait for next week to see what he gets up to on the boat n how he's going to end up working for Ben!? (as a hitman) yowzer.

Id have to watch again to find out the exact difference but it seems there is definatly some sort of time shift with the island compared to the 'normal' world.

the newcomers didn't seem to want to answer Desmond's question, so i'm guessing they know her or her father as someone posted earlier.

i've forgotten half of what happened...takes so damn long to load on the net

[OumaFan]

They're giving away the Oceanic Six people pretty quickly, another one next week.

I think I'm liking this season better than any one since the first season. Not sure why but I like how its going.

well bang goes my prediction.

[AdamGB]

Still reckon Jin/Sun is one of them... other wise her baby and her are fooked.

[El Gamo]

Charlie had to die because had he let the door open,Desmundo would have died too ergo no-one to warn the group. As for re-watching seasons,I've done it for them all and noticed small things(such as Chrisitan and the white shoe in the tree in EP 1) but nothing major. Here's why I think more than 6 got off:something I posted a few pages back:

1.) Jack
2.)Hurley
3.)Kate
Those 3 are self explanatory
4.)Claire and AAron-I believe Desmond's visions plus there are some peeps that benefit from staying on the island,Cliare is not one of them.
5.)Desmond-He has to meet Penny at some point,would be tragic if they didn't meet.
6.)NO IDEA.
7.)I think a seventh came back,Michael. It's the person in the casket of Jack's Flash forward.

I'd like to add a point here,the survivors are known as the Oceanic 6 right? They seem and from what has been said,actually are celebrities to some people. Soooo.... in Jack's FF,when he went to visit the casket of the dead person,why was there no big deal about this person? Was he not of the Oceanic 6?I say so because if they were celebs,surely more would have been made of the death?Look how famous Jack/Kate and Hurley were.

My guess is maybe a person from the island made it back,no-one knew about him,and he died.I'm going for Michael. The black neighbourhood in the scene and the camera on those big blac dudes was a give away imo.


That's my idea.Pretty neat if I say so myself.

[BIG H]

I have nothing to say, I just want my name to be next to all of the 5 latest threeads at the bottom of the forum

[El Gamo]

That didn't last long big man

[Diane]

But Charlie could have made it out of the room, and shut the door on time, that's all I'm saying.

You're forgetting about Sayid. We know already that he made it off, and said he was part of the 6.

I still think it was Sawyer in the the casket. I think Michael is to obvious, since they showed the black neighborhood, and everything. No one came, because we know that Sawyer's parents are dead, and he always makes such a deal about looking out for only himself, and that he doesn't get attached to anyone, and I don't think that he would want the fame, so maybe that's why no media attention. Plus, who knows which name he used when he got off the island. He might have used Sawyer, but when he died, they used his real name of James Ford, thus no one knowing except for the other 5.

[El Gamo]

You make an awesome point about Sawyer too.My point is,whoever was in the casket, there were more than 6. Those 6 are celebs, the guy/girl in the casket would be a celeb too but they aren't. Someone else got off the island without being found out. It could be the way you said,using an alias,another identity,like Sawyer(you could be on to somrthing here) But I guarantee more than 6 got off. There would have been alot of media coverage if ti was known that the person in the casket was from the island!They are celebs!
