Lost - Season 5. Let's start hypothesizing!

[KarmaSutra]

We know the agenda this season is for the Oceanic Six to return together ,with Locke in tow, to The Island.

The most pressing issue is how they'll get back to The Island after Ben moved it? Where or when is The Island? I think Ben knows exactly how to get back but he needs the O6 and Locke in order to triangulate a location because the O6 are The Island's constants!

Let's go with theories, speculations and questions!

Wrong forum lol.

Since it's in here, however, let's at least steer it on topic.

I've heard from quite a few girls who watch the show have a little crush on Jack. That surprised me a little, as I thought that they would like Sawyer better because of the whole bad boy thing he had going on. Guess not. Looks like Jack's leadership traits won most of them over lol

I stopped watching Lost after the 3rd season began. It stopped making sense, and it was starting to seem like the writers were being pressured to be too creative too quickly, and now the show seems like it's trying too hard. It's annoying.

But Lost played a HUGE part in me starting to improve myself even before I learned about this community. I saw Saieed and wanted to be muscular like him, so I started working out, going as far as doing situps/pushups WHILE I watched the episodes on my computer. Jack's ability to lead others inspired me to cultivate leadership skills, as well as advance in a medical career. I was in sort of a medical school at the time. Now I have realized that I'm not really into the whole medical thing, and I respect those who are.

Then I stumbled upon David DeAngelo's material at the same time the third season came out

Why would we want to ruin it for ourselves?????????????

I love this show.

 

[penkitten]

will walt and desmond need to "return " also?

 

[KarmaSutra]

No, neither Walt nor Michael need to go back because neither of them were involved in the meltdown that Desmond caused when he turned the key. This was the "emergency release" Desmond was told about by Kelvin.

Turn the key, move The Island. Move it in time I mean. It also exposed them all to immense amounts of radiation which keeps them in the proper time parrallel instead of shifting back and forth like Desmond and Minkowsky.

micheal died on the freighter.
but doesnt desmond need to return too?
and i still think walt needs to also.

 

[KarmaSutra]

micheal died on the freighter.

Did he? Last he saw was Christian telling him it was time to go then, KABOOM! I think he was teleported by Christian's b!tch, Smokie, back to The Island as penance for redeeming himself for his betrayal.

but doesnt desmond need to return too?

Nope. Desmond discovered his constant in Penny. He is no longer bound to The Island.

and i still think walt needs to also.

Why? Walt left The Island well before he would have been exposed to any radiation. Walt is special but not to The Island or Ben.

 

[search1ng]

everyone will hopefully fcking DIE!


... sorry, I'm just feeling really self-destructive. Ignore me.

micheal is classed as deceased.

desmond is needed to be there to be daniel's constant. also in the episode we see daniel begging him to go to oxford to see his mother so that he can return and save them. desmond wakes up in the present time , saying he dreamed about the boat, then saying it was not a dream but a memory. he gets up and turns the boat around toward oxford and tells penny that is where they are going so he can help them.

i just wanna see walt tied in. but you know what, you are probably right. he got so much bigger that they probably wont bring him back, as it wouldnt seem like only 100 days have passed since they crashed.

 

[KarmaSutra]

Though time is not as important in the grand scheme anymore, it still has an effect in the storytelling.

Look at it like this 'Kitten, remember when Locke and Boone found the Beechcraft? Locke had a "dream" about it. Then he scooped up Boone and they went a runnin'.

Now, when Locke found it he had deja 'vu and did not climb up because he had pains in his legs and couldn't physically accomplish it. This is because Ethan shot him in A past and this was The Island's way of course correcting the situation. Boone had to die.

I think we're going to find that Faraday and his Mother (Ms. Hawkins) are absolutely tied to The Island far before Ben and the D.I. were ever there.

You DO realize that 3 years have passed off of the Island?

Some thoughts...

The Season Finale to Season 3 may well end up being my favorite episode of all. It was such a shock and such a cliffhanger and expanded the mystery beyond the Island and the desire of the survivors to leave the Island.

I will always remember Jack's painful pleading to Kate "We gotta go back!". I think those words resonate with not just me but almost everyone. We've all had experiences that we took for granted at time and only later realized what a golden opportunity we truly had. We all have missed opportunities. We all have a situation that we would give almost anything to go back and change.

I just wanted to put that out there.

My thoughts on Season 5 so far

I hate to say it but I am highly disappointed.

Now you have to understand, Lost is my FAVORITE show of all time. I have always imaged that the Series Finale will be bigger than the Finale to Mash.

However, this is the first season I was truly NOT blown away by the opening episode(s).

Maybe it's the fact that as the producers said they are starting to answer more questions than they are asking. The looming mystery over the Island presented endless opportunity and promise for where the show could go. Now, it appears the show is going into a generic time-travel direction that has appeared before in countless formats.

Perhaps the writers have over-played their hands. They created this grand mystery with endless possibility but perhaps they themselves didn't have answers to the questions they were creating. And now that the ending looms ever closer, it seems they have settled on this generic time travel formula to bail them out.

I hope it gets better

I love this series.

Tonight's episode was really good. It had a couple of WTF, really moments. It did answer several questions of why things in the past happened. Unfortunately it's too late for me to post most of them. Though I do wonder what Richard is or what happened to him. If he looks like he is 40 something back in the 1950's then in current time he is at least in his 90's.

I just say the island is some kind of Garden of Eden deal that good and evil basically fight over because it could decide the course of human development. Oversimplified, I know, but that's what I get from the show.
