Lost Season 4 Discussion - Because You Left

[quote name='humidore']So was anything interesting mentioned at Comicon? Like last year with Michael (and Libby, but that didn't happen in season 4...)?[/QUOTE]

Libby was featured in Michael's flashback in Season 4.
 
Some one link me to a plot summary. I lost complete interest in watching this showing during season 2. But I still want to know how they get off the island or what ever.
 
If anybody still cares about Dharmawantsyou, Test 3 is up and there are a couple of cheats:

Typing "lento" during the game will slow down the black spheres

Typing "allegro" during the game will speed up the clock

This is a pretty easy Test to get 100% in.

Oh yea...I kind of meant an episode explaining her deal in the mental hospital. But yea, I'm just lookin for something to get me excited (already) about next season, but haven't heard anything yet...Michelle Rodriguez certainly ain't gonna do it!
 
They'll still explain Libby eventually. Little bits and pieces come together through her seemingly minor appearances in more important peoples' flashbacks (like how Desmond got his boat).
 
[quote name='crunchb3rry']Michelle Rodriguez is supposed to make at least one cameo.[/QUOTE]

Terrible. There is no need to have her back. I was so happy when she was killed off.
 
This looks awesome.

I have S3 coming on Blu-Ray and am waiting for S4 to come on BR so I can show my girlfriend how awesome Lost really is.
 
Cool..thx jolly....What looks like exploring and excavating to find out what happened to the rest...im psyched.

Meh... That showed hardly anything new.

Are you kidding?? It showed Juliet most likely rediscovering an intact Swan hatch (!), it showed Faraday exploring what could be a Cerberus vent (looking at something that appeared to be a petrified...snake?), it showed him also perhaps meeting the deceased Radinsky...the implications of some of the clips are pretty huge.

I have to say, while it may just be me, I really got a sense of dread watching that that I didn't get in the initial trailer for last year. The color palette seemed to be even bleaker, if you can imagine that, and if the Losties that were on the Island when it was 'moved' are indeed back in the 'past', it sets up the possibility of an ending that's very The Third Policeman.

Seeing the Swan again also confirmed one of my biggest fears: that Desmond will come back to the Island after Ben kills Penny and will somehow end up stuck in the hatch again. Remember, the old British woman in "Flashes Before Your Eyes" said that pushing the button was the greatest thing he'd ever do, and we still don't know exactly what he did to get put in prison and get a dishonorable discharge. Maybe he actually deserves it. That seems contrary to everything we know of him, but this is LOST we're talking about.

Regardless, I really think the light/dark, Heaven/Hell subtext is getting stronger, and it will be interesting to see just how cruel or merciful the creators of the show are to the characters, or at least who ends up where. I'm pretty convinced at this point it's all based on how they're suggesting that Time isn't what we perceive it as, and on the 'other side', its linear nature is exposed as just a limitation of our 'stuck' minds.
 
Holy shit, you're right! I didn't even notice that. Juliet rubs the dirt off the swan station, & then when the door opens, either Kelvin or Radzinski comes out in the hazmat suit with a gun. IF It's Radzinski, it will be at LEAST 3 years prior to the crash. If it's Kelvin, it could be a matter of days. IT would be very interesting if 815 crashed again & all the survivors found themselves lol.

This is my prediction for the season 5 finale.
 
Aww man... guess I'll have to bust this out from a couple years ago..
TIME PARADOX

:whee: Anyway, interesting stuff. I just played through Via Domus a couple weeks ago so I've been rewatching the previous season. Only a couple months away!

I really hope this isnt the case. It would just be too weird. What WOULD be cool, is if 815 crashed, & all the people that survive the "new" crash are all the people who died on the original 815 (while the people who are now alive died).
 
I really don't believe the survivors of 815 will meet themselves, at least not both alive and of approximately the same age. Leave that cheese for Heroes. What I do think may happen is that the crash will happen again, but with slightly different circumstances.* Don't ask me what those would be, because I haven't given it that much thought yet.

Worth noting is the 'faked' crash that was found early in Season Four on the ocean floor. Isn't it strange that the plane was broken into the exact three sections that the actual plane broke apart in? Isn't it weird how Ben's people and Widmore's people both claimed the other party created this mammoth hoax? What I'm saying is that it wasn't a fake, but instead an alternate reality. The two timelines split apart, probably during a geomagnetic anomaly. Yeah, yeah, I know that the pilot's corpse was missing his wedding ring, but there might be a very good explanation for that, too.

*--Remember in "Flashes Before Your Eyes" how the physicist was rambling to a colleague before meeting Desmond about doing the same experiment ten different times and getting slightly different results each time.
 
Interesting Q&A with "Darlton" about the show so far and the remaining two seasons over at everyone's favorite Chobot-whoring, overcluttered, teen-pandering, Murdoch-owned Infotainment-Geared News 'inverted Maxim' of a site. All my soapbox rantings aside, for Lost fans, it's really worth five minutes of your time (tough even for their hacks to fuck up quoting Damon Lindelof).

Oh yeah...the link:

Nothing new to report, but I just thought I'd throw this theory out there, based on the glimpses of Season Five we've seen online and on ABC (hard to avoid the commercials if you've even watched one college football game in the last month), I've got a new theory.

Maybe others here have considered it, or maybe you've read someone else suggesting the same thing elsewhere, but I think the clues are lining up that Daniel Faraday is none other than Radzinski, the primary artist of the Swan's blast door map.

Why do I say that? Well, spoilers only if you don't want to know anything about Season Five early, particularly what ABC's already officially thrown out there, but
we've observed a ton of clues that Daniel (and the rest of the people on the island when Ben 'moved' it) moved 'back' in Time to what appears to be the early days of the Dharma Initiative. In easy-to-read bullet point form:

--We've seen Daniel backing away from a DI member in a hazmat suit pointing a rifle or shotgun at him as he stands in the doorway of what looks to be the 'side door' of the Swan (although it could be the Arrow or some other station).

--We see Daniel seemingly in a subterranean cave with something like a miner's helmet on, exploring and investigating. Perhaps a Cerberus Vent?

--FaRADay...RADzinski. Just sayin'.

--Think about the similarities in Daniel's hasty-but-detailed sketches in his log book (and on the chalkboard in "The Constant") and the Blast Door Map.

--Kelvin Inman tells Desmond that Radzinski had a photographic memory. What were Daniel and Charlotte working on with the playing cards?

--When we see Daniel's flashback in his home, he's crying and doesn't know why he's so upset. It's safe to guess that his conscious must have just become 'unstuck in time', and his memory problems prevent him from remembering the shift of locales. Could this be him 'visiting' his last moments before he blows his own brains out?

It's just a theory, but it really seems like we're going to find out who Radzinski is/was before this show's over. I also tend to think that
both Miles and Charlotte were born on the island. Why they were able to be birthed there is beyond me, but it sure seems to be setting up that way
.

Less than forty days and forty nights...!
 
I need help.

I'm looking for a screen saver that makes me type the famous "LOST Numbers" in to unlock the computer.

Any ideas where or if I can find that?
 
One more request: Can we call it "Lost Season 5 Discussion -- Because You Left --"?

"No Place Like Home" was a Season 4 thing.

Thanks!
 
[quote name='LinkinPrime']I just went with what TV Guide has...it says "Because You Left/The Lie"[/quote]

That's great - it's a two-parter. Thanks, dude.

About a year ago, I remember doing a search for such a thing. I know I found a match where someone claimed to have made a 'homebrew' version. Problem is, who knows which ones are Trojan Horses for malware (and worse)? It seems like something that would be fun for hardcore fans of the show (raises hand) for a weekend, but the problem, amongst other things, is that I'm almost never home for two days in a row.

Of course, it also wouldn't be quite as 'gratifying' without the '70s-style countdown timer resetting every time you entered The Numbers. Finally, it would feel like a 'cheat' if you could turn it on and off as necessary, regardless of how impractical it would be to do otherwise. (And what would be the penalty for not entering 4 8 15 16 23 42 in time? No access to your PC for an hour? A day? The end of the world??)
