Ramar Posted May 16, 2010 Posted May 16, 2010 I dunno about you guys, but a lot of me is glad that most "questions" aren't getting answered. From what I've seen on various forums, people want to be spoonfed everything. Maybe it's indicative of our culture these days but apparently leaving things mysterious is not right. I mean sure, there are some things I'd love to know, but why must we know every single thing and every single reason behind that and every single reason behind all of them? I think most of the questioning comes from the early series' and people not knowing what the show was going to be about. Especially when you think it's just about a plain crash and a bunch of survivors. Then it becomes some largely mysterious sci-fi/mythology thing.. Where very little seems to get explained before moving onto the next part of the story. Despite the fact that im still really enjoying the series I have to admit I would have prefered it if they'd stayed on the more scientific route that the first few seasons took. I much prefer the Dharma Initiative mysteries with their various stations etc and having the Island as just some kind of place with special qualities not found anywhere else. That said once its all over and done with im really looking forward to watching the entire show again from beginning to end, knowing what I know now. I definitely look forward to re-watching the whole show, I've forgotten so much of the earlier stuff.
Serebii Posted May 16, 2010 Posted May 16, 2010 Am considering saving enough money to get the back catalogue on Blu Ray as opposed to DVD. While the DVDs are great, I'd love to see it in HD
flameboy Posted May 17, 2010 Posted May 17, 2010 When does the finale screen in the UK? I'm trying to figure whether I can stay spoiler free all that time...or can I put up with the annoyingness of other methods.
Happenstance Posted May 18, 2010 Posted May 18, 2010 28th. Im just gonna wait until then, im pretty sure i'll be able to avoid any spoilers. Any ones ive seen this season have been my own doing anyway.
Serebii Posted May 18, 2010 Posted May 18, 2010 Watch as the final scene is posted on the front page of The Sun on Monday
flameboy Posted May 18, 2010 Posted May 18, 2010 Watch as the final scene is posted on the front page of The Sun on Monday yeah you can guarantee this much touted final image that Matthew Fox has spoken of will end somewhere hard to avoid.
Happenstance Posted May 18, 2010 Posted May 18, 2010 We might be ok if its the final image. Im guessing a black background with the word "LOST" written in white.
Mike Posted May 18, 2010 Posted May 18, 2010 (edited) Apparently the 'two and a half hour' finale is made up of 100 minutes of Lost, and 50 minutes of adverts! That's quite a lot of ads! Edited May 18, 2010 by Mike
Gizmo Posted May 18, 2010 Posted May 18, 2010 Well to be fair, an average one hour episode of anything has about 18-20minutes of adverts...a two and a half hour with 50minutes of adverts seems reasonable.

Dante Posted May 19, 2010 Author Posted May 19, 2010 This episode was awesome episode with great surprises.
Tphi Posted May 19, 2010 Posted May 19, 2010 6.16 was a solid episode going into the finale. Very glad Zoe was first for the chop, followed by Widmore. Not sure I believe his story about Jacob visiting him and getting his repentance, that all felt a bit rushed, but I doubt we'll hear any more of it. Good to see Terry O'Quinn and Michael Emerson back on-screen together, dialling home some deep levels of evil. Jack taking up the mantel of Jacob was truly epic. Six years of character development right there, and it all comes back to the bamboo.
Wii Posted May 19, 2010 Posted May 19, 2010 Great episode, really looking forward to the finale now. Don't think I can wait for it to air here so might have to look elsewhere. It's going to be sad when it's all over, 6 years and then no more Lost.
SPAMBOT4000 Posted May 19, 2010 Posted May 19, 2010 Great episode. Very much looking forward to the finale. I'm really enjoying how the sideways timeline seems to be coming together now.

Six years of character development right there, and it all comes back to the bamboo. Quite agreed. Props to Matthew Fox, he's always bored me, but lately Jack's randomly started to be a fave character. Anyway, that was a fucking wicked episode, especially compared to last week's. Apart from the end and stuff. Flocke tends to bore me. Owell. Finally started to get a sense of finality going as well (possibly 'cause about three character went on about how it's 'almost the end' or whatevs)
Serebii Posted May 19, 2010 Posted May 19, 2010 The season six Lost DVD could include an extended finale, reports have said. An ABC source allegedly told TV Guide Magazine that the boxset will feature around 20 minutes of additional footage. "It's in production now," the insider claimed. "[Executive producers] Damon [Lindelof] and Carlton [Cuse] wanted to offer fans answers to additional questions they couldn't get to in the body of the final show." The source did not confirm the length of the extra scenes. http://www.digitalspy.co.uk/cult/s10/lost/news/a220730/lost-dvd-to-include-extended-finale.html Jesus christ lol

Mike Posted May 19, 2010 Posted May 19, 2010 A solid episode this week, and much better than last week's, of course. It was also the first time, I think, that I've been gripped by the sideways storyline! Is anyone doing anything special for the finale next week? We're having a Lost party with some friends, which should be fun! Check out my g/f's blog for some ideas for food she's mulling over: http://distractedgourmet.wordpress.com/. We'll probably have some Lost-inspired music (Downtown / Make Your Own Kind Of Music / You All Everybody...) and print out some Dharma logos to stick around the lounge.

I must be one of the few people who enjoyed last week's episode. I won't be doing anything special for the finale as I don't know anyone else who has watched it all the way through! Most people I know got bored around series 3 or 4. To be honest I don't blame them, I'm only watching because I've watched it for so long now.

Also, does anyone know what time the episode will hit the net (TOTZ NOT ILLEGALLY RITE) because I would fancy staying up to watch it asap
SPAMBOT4000 Posted May 19, 2010 Posted May 19, 2010 They're usually up by about 4 am I find. Though.... as it's an extra long episode it'll probably be later than that. The previous Lost finales have always been up much, much later than the normal episodes.

I've had a lot of grief for that as well as nobody at work enjoyed it
