sorry to bring everyone down, i was just throwin in my 2 cents
the show is obviously very different than it was from the first season or 2, and i miss the old days
(warning: fwiw i only started watching lost no more than 8 months ago, which started with a binge of the first four seasons in about a month... i don\'t know what affect that has on anything)
it\'s definitely different than how it was the first couple of seasons. it was very dramatic and suspenseful. now that we\'ve learned more about what\'s going on, it\'s more science fiction. it\'s just the nature of the show that certain facts had to be uncovered. they couldn\'t keep the mystery of the hatch, the island, the BSM, the others, the DI, etc a mystery for the entire show. they\'ve explained those (somewhat) and created new mysteries and devices (the temple, the upcoming "war," time travel, etc) all while staying true to the underlying themes of the show. i think they\'ve done a masteful job.

i\'m all about change- life is just one big changing glob of stuff
i still like this show a lot, but i think it prob peaked in like 05 or something
yeah it peaked, and now they are wrapping it all up. it\'s good that the writers know when the show is going to end, and they\'re not going to drag it out like some sitcom.

this season is boring as hellllllllllll. where\'s all the action?
ok, so we have not seen faraday in a while, since john moved the island like 5 episodes ago, and he moved with everyone to the 70\'s because when they went back in the woods he was there with the english chick.... we also saw him in the season premiere working underground when they were blasting to get into the room that moved the island. I\'m thinking that was in the future from where everyone is right now ("it\'s 1977, star wars just came out.")
so what\'s everyones speculation on him? if he\'s just getting to the island now, he must have been moved off of it at some point, but when? and he\'s been gone for a long time? I\'m having trouble putting his time line together with that teaser.
not much action, but I like the episodes that give information. still a good one. :thumbsup:
my prediction: the "what lies beneath the shadow of the statue" people work for the hanso foundation. i mean come on, their WHOLE
**** RESEARCH project gets totally torched, wouldn\'t someone be ALL types of pissed about this and want to get back at the others?
it would also explain why those guys would know so much about miles\' dad...
if the island keeps moving, how were the hanso people able to keep doing air drops of food pallets? they must be able to track the island, right?
yeah ms. hawking\'s big pendulum was a dharma station at one point, remember?
so there are 4 groups of people... hanso, dharma, others, and losties?
or is it futhermuckin\' merged, (hanso & dharma) (others and losties)?
no no, hanso IS dharma. all the orientation videos said "brought to you by the hanso foundation" or "?hanso foundation" or something like that.
and yeah losties and others go in the same group now as far as i\'m concerned.
we also still don\'t REALLY know where the whole linus/whidmore thing weighs in on all this as well.
well linus and whidmore are both others with conflicting viewpoints, right? i used to think whidmore was on the dharma side but thats obv not the case.
so there is inner-conflict between ben and whidmore, and outer-conflict between dharma and the others.
is the war between dharma and others or between whidmore and linus?
whidmore was definitely warning locke about something far bigger than his quarrels with ben.
good call jim. forgot ms. faradays church was a dharma station.
what i want to know is who\'s behind the hanso foundation?
