LOST discussion - thar be spoilers ahead!

[lcummins]

Don't know if this was discussed, but what story did Lapidus and crew tell the public and authorities when their plane landed ??

Did they become the Ajira 6???

Wait! Some the Oceanic 6 were on the Ajira flight!! The public was going to start to get suspicious!

...I'm glad she likes the name Samuel, but that was never once mentioned on the show...

In the video, she goes into more detail about all of your post, and claims inside information and the like. As for the name of Samuel for MiB, she said that was the name in the scripts, but the final decision was to not mention a name and leave him a bit more mysterious.

I have no idea--but I hope they held Richard's job for him back at the sugar plantation.

Miles sold the diamonds and lived like a king.

Claire visited a hair salon and then returned to her mother and son in Australia.

Kate and Sawyer hooked up and lived happily ever after for decades, until they died and moved on into eternity with Jack and Juliet, respectively.

When Lapidus isn't flying, he spends his time getting his chest waxed and eating lots of bacon.

Talk about a plot hole!

I heard a podcast interview with Jorge Garcia this morning that confirmed the epilogue will shed some light on the most pressing mystery of all -

EDIT: Just realized it's a little spoilery, hence the box.

I believe the supplies were coming from Dharma off-Island, and they could find and track the Island using their Lamp Post station under the church in L.A.--but I believe the supplies were sent before the purge and arrived a little late.

Look at Faraday's rocket experiment--enter the Island's bubble on the wrong trajectory and time gets unpredictable. Things land on the Island a long time after they were sent--Dharma drops a food pallet in 1990 and it passes the wrong way through the bubble and lands in 2004. After they showed us that rocket, I stopped worrying about the resupply pallets.

Make that pallet, singular. We only saw one.

Now, you might assume that there were more--a lot more. You might assume that Desmond's supplies came from a similar pallet. But the show only showed us one that I can recall. And we heard no plane--possibly because the plane flew over the Island over a decade earlier.

Just one possible explanation.

Excellent deduction.

Actually it would be the story of Kate, Sawyer, Lapidus, Claire, Myles and Richard and what they did when they landed. Where did Richard go? What did Myles do with the diamonds? Will Lapidus ever fly again? How did Kate and Sawyer not end up together?

Or better yet, what is little Aaron going to think when he is yanked away from the only mother he has ever known to be handed off to a crazy lady who spends her spare time building dolls out of animal bones?

Were the Losties gone from the real world for the same length of time that they were on the Island??

To us, it felt like they were missing for 4 years, but for people like Hurley's mom and Jack's mom, were they only missing for a few months?? The Losties were on the island for 108 days right??

Wow it is still just as amazing as it was 3 weeks ago when that link was posted for the first time.

 

[Maglor]

Do you mean this?

You beat me Batty!

I'm wondering if this is the one available for pre-order at Amazon... I'm thinking no.

I knew about the bells and whistles addition, but I only just today got the notification that Amazon had that edition.

Wow, I thought I was a huge LOST fan but I had no idea what you were talking about. After a google search I understood.

They are going to explain that?

His in Exodus and that episode Michael has no bullets!

. Maybe it wasn't confirmed that the one which has been available through amazon for awhile now had all the extras but I always assumed it did.

Yeah, I never listened to fan podcasts before but my work has been super-boring lately so I got a bunch of fan-reaction podcasts to kill time.

I would have forgotten about it too but D & C got many questions about it on the official podcast so it became a running joke. JG said it will be addressed so we'll see.

 

[SwedishHeat]

It's funny that they have all this Egyptian "symbology" but it's never explained where it game from.

The complete set has an ankh, it has this Egyptian Senet game. . . but we were still never told how the Taweret statue got there, and why Hurley was carrying the Ankh with the secret compartment. Why Egyptian??

 

[lcummins]

Ok, now that some time has passed and I've been able to look back and reflect, I can say I really enjoyed the show and the finale, and can just live without the answers to most all of the many questions and mysteries we were presented during the six year run. If you look at the show as the events that occurred to Jack during his time on the Island, then things like The Others, Dharma, Smokie, don't need an explanation... they just were! I can live with that.


BUT...


...when Juliet set off the atomic bomb, why didn't it destroy the Island (and maybe sunk it into the ocean? ), kill all the Losties, and destroy any trace of the hatch area under construction, as well as the bodies of the Losties, including Juliet??? We were told everything on the Island "was real"... so a "real" atomic bomb wouldn't have left much at all. And even if it "went off" without "destroying" anything, then there wouldn't have been a hatch for John to find, nor a Desmond typing numbers every 108 minutes, etc., yet we were told that everything on the Island "was real"! So we end up with a time paradox... they destroy the hatch with an atomic bomb, thus making it impossible to find the hatch when they crash on the Island... or the bomb failed and they were transported back to the current time from the 1970's by an Island flash (they made us think it was the bomb! how lame!). So which of these events are real? All of them? None of them? Or maybe...


Everything on the Island was real, only they were in Jack's thoughts right before death in the sideways world, which was the reality!


Or, the bomb went off, everyone died, and the remaining events were Jack's final thoughts to "help" him pass on!

 

[pixletwin]

I thought the bomb never went off.
