Ok....I was wrong but semi-right...

I actually think Jacob is good. I think the other guy would be his evil counterpart.

There are some insanely smart ppl analyzing this shit on lost boards...

Basically the guy in the black shirt would be anubis, the god of death, and is probably the smoke monster. Who can take the form of other people...

I believe the "new" locke, is the smokemonster/man in black in the beginning.
He was also Christian. (who told them they had to wait for locke, which once the corpse arrived, he took the form of.)
& Yemi (the dead brother of echo)
& ben's daughter (who told ben to follow locke/himself no matter what)

Jacob would be the light god, the god of life.

a God cannot kill another God so the smoke monster found a loophole and had Ben kill Jacob.



Also another theory...I think the last season will start as the first.

The plane doesn't land safe, it crashes....

but when they wake up, the ppl who got stuck in 77 still remember everything...so they can change the events that happened in the first season..etc...and change history.

They "always" came

over and over

that's what Jacob and the other dude were talking about in the beginning.

Here's one for you, in Genesis, Benjamin is the son of Jacob.

I heart you guys. <3

I was actually thinking about this, maybe the final season starts with the plane landing and each episode focuses on one character and the finality of their stories now that they haven't met.

interesting...I think it could go both ways....Or we could start in acient egypt....you know the story Ra/Osiris and whatnot...that seems to be where this is going.

Oh god, Egypt would be awesome, but I don't really want it to go there.

Kind of off-topic, but a few days ago I made of list of my 10 Favorite Pharaohs. haha.

1. Djoser (3rd Dynasty): The OG pyramid building. The first, ladies and gentlemen. His stepped pyramid isn't the Great or even the second greatest, but his tomb set the stage for all the others.

2. Khufu (4th Dynasty): The builder of the Great Pyramid a Giza. One of the Seven Wonders of the ancient world and the only one still standing. No big statues of him appear to exist to this day, but that doesn't matter because he has the pyramid!

3. Ramesses II (19th Dynasty): The big one. Ramesses The Great. He is responsible for perhaps the largest building projects of the Egyptians. Abu Simbel, The Ramesseum, numerous colossi in his own likeness. He's also the old one with the hooked nose.

4. Tutankhamun (18th Dynasty): Born Tutankaten (The Living Image of Aten), he was possibly (probably) the son of Akhenaten. After the death of Akhenaten and the re-institution of the old religion, he changed his name to Tutankhamun (The Living Image of Amun). We all know about his sealed tomb, but he's a little trivia tidbit. Inside his tomb there were two female fetuses thought to be the stillborn daughters of Tutankhamun and his wife/possible half-sister.

5. Akhenaten (18th Dynasty): He was born as Amenhotep IV, but when he adopted the monotheistic worship of Aten (the physical disc of the Sun), he changed his name, which means "He who worships Aten". Akhenaten is very strange and is depicted as such. There's too much to list here, so the research, if you choose to accept it, is up to you. Suffice it to say, he wasn't popular and was completely out of his tree.

6. Khafre (4th Dynasty): Builder of the 2nd largest Pyramid at Giza and probably the Sphinx too. That's about it.

7. Psusennes I (21st Dynasty): He had a cool burial mask. In my opinion, better than Tut's. Not much else is known about him, or at least I don't know it.

8. Thutmose III (18th Dynasty): He was a pretty cool guy. He co-ruled for a while with Hatshepsut. He was also a very successful military leader.

9. Seti I (19th Dynasty): Rounding out my four-in-a-row Pharaohs (Akhenaten, Tutankhamun, Seti I, and Ramesses II), Seti I is the son of Ramesses I and has a well-preserved mummy and some cool other things that I'm not 100% sure about. He appeared to be a builder as well, but not on the scale of his son, Ramesses II

10. Amenhotep III (18th Dynasty): He built the Temple at Luxor and also added on greatly to Karnak. He is father of Akhenaten and I have nothing really else to say about him.

^^Don't judge us 3.

:) I'm going to finish Season 1 this weekend...

This reminds me of an episode of Courage the Cowardly Dog.....KING RAMSES! the man of gods, the man of gods.....KING RAMSES!

I saw that one...it was awesome. :)

I just love that fucking song....man it's so catchy.

is this the first lost thread on syg ever???? i love the show... but we aint getting the season finale until sunday night (4 days time) so i cant read the thread in its entirety or at all..... booo!!! hiss!!! bleagh!! etc and so forth.

Did I really start the first Lost thread ever? You guys are slackers. ;)

But the finale is GREAT!!!!!!

I started one a long time ago I think, or maybe someone else did. But we stopped talking about it at the beginning of this season.

I'm considering going into hibernation until the start of season 6.

The story was good, but after watching it again, the acting in this episode besides ben and locke was fucking horrible!

I think the other guy in the beginning was the old version of Richard Alpert.

Vincent was with Rose and Bernard who also were time warping with Sawyer, Juliette and everyone else. Vincent being there doesn't mean anything.

Is that an intentional Michael reference from season one?

"They say I'm going to have to have a year of physical therapy. A YEAR!"

Anyway, genius finale. Maybe even better than the season 3 finale, but I'm not sure yet.


Man, how can you say that? Juliet and Sawyer really put it out there. When Juliet is crying and smashing the bomb with that rock...chills.

The Jacob stuff is great though, seeing him visit all those characters. And his conversation with the other guy at the beginning of the episode, fantastic stuff.

Right now though I don't think Fake Locke is the smoke monster. He is definitely the guy from the beginning of the episode though. The scenarios don't add up. Christian and Yemi's bodies both disappeared, Locke's didn't. Yemi was DEFINITELY the smoke monster, and Christian is anyone's guess. But the monster seems to take the bodies of the people it manifests as. Also, Fake Locke seemed genuinely surprised when Ben told him the Monster made him promise to go along with whatever Locke said. Then again, Fake Locke could just be a good actor.

Season 3 is alot more interesting now knowing that it wasn't Jacob in the cabin but Fake Locke.

Whatever, there's alot of stuff going on.

Good God man you sound ridiculous.

& I'm glad Juliette is dead, fuckin botox face horrible acting...and I think sawyer even got some kind of botox or wears make up now...

he looks like the fucking lion in wizard of oz now.

terrible acting, though jack was badass, that gun fight was totally like Star Wars....

This show is theee best of thee best. i'm hooked.
Tried Episode 1 Season 1 for the laughs with my wife a couple of weeks ago. We stared at the thing for 40 minutes, dribbling and shit.Looked at each other in awe as that first episode ended and watched six more ina row that first night. Jaw dropping. Am currently at Season 2 episode 5 only. So i know i still have a lot to see and *try* to avoid carefully the lostpedia but still want to grab a couple of clues here and there.
Gawd.

Haha, that's pretty much how my Mom and I reacted when we first saw the show. I have several really good eyeball spinning memories from that first season, like when Sayid first finds the beach cable or when Ethan beats up Jack, when they first find the Hatch. When we finished season 1 at 4 or whatever in the morning, we were frantic to speed down to the video store in the morning to get the second season, couldn't stop.

Lost never really loses it's steam though, it's consistantly exciting. It's awesome that you're staying spoiler free. It's so horrible when you accidentally spoil yourself. Glad you dig it.

You watched the whole thing on DVD or broadcast?

I started watching it on Hulu at the end of November and finished season 5 before the new year. I thought seasons 1-3 were just fantastic but I felt season 4 was not as good and season 5 was just silly at times. Everyone changing their minds every 30 seconds seems like a way to fill time. And there was a bit too much going on for me to handle too.

Don't get me wrong, I'm entirely jonesing for Feb 2--Groundhog Day--kinda appropriate... Maybe Bill Murray will make a guest appearance.


I'm going to go back and watch maybe the last 5 episodes to try to get things straight in my head before season 6 starts.


I also gotta say, I'm sure the end can't help but be dissapointing. They've just built things up so much, I can't see how they'll be able to wrap up all the loose ends.

Kinda like the 'new' Star Wars. You know where the last movie ends--in order to pick up for the '77 movie. And too much of seems perfunctory: we need to hit this plot point, than this one... We kinda know what points need to get wrapped up and I think it will be more challenging doing that than laying out the story in seasons 1-5.

I tried to get into "Lost" last Spring. I bought the box set of Season 1 and really enjoyed it, so I went out and bought the box set of Season 2. It started well, but by the end it had got really silly, which put me off wanting to watch Season 3.

What ever happened to NaiveMelody?

I watched Season 1 and 2 on DVD as well as the first I think 6 episodes of season 3 online. The rest I watched broadcast. The show is definitely much more enjoyable in a straight run on DVD instead of watching with commercials and dealing with week long gaps inbetween episodes.

There's a season 4 episode that sticks out particularly in my mind. When I watched it broadcast, it was kind of an eh episode to me. But when I rewatched it with my dad (he's at work when the episode initially airs, so we tape them for him) it was alot better when run straight through. The episode is The Shape of Things to Come if you wondering, don't want to spoil greedrex any.

Yeah I suppose season 4 is a little iffy at times but there's also some amazing episodes there, though I'll admit I think it has the worst season finale across these five seasons. Season 5 yeah I suppose it's only natural that you'd feel that way with what's going on. That season is alot better on a second viewing.

Interesting Star Wars analogy, I think we will have to be wary about something like that occurring. With so much left to speak of on the show, it would certainly be lame if they just went around checking that stuff off the list from episode to episode "Ok, here's who Adam and Eve are..., or oh, the Smoke Monster that one's easy...". That definitely would be horrible. I put my faith in those guys, but it certainly wouldn't be hard to screw up.

I've had a theory that season 6 will start like season 1, with jack waking up. Starting all over, except they have all the memories of the past 5 seasons.

As believable a theory as any.

I heard that this season, all the characters will be replaced by Muppets. So, Miss Piggy as Juliet or Kate?

Miss Piggy would obviously be Shannon.

If you lost noobs even remember who she was...

Boone's step sister. Biatch.

Psst! She's DEAD! Been dead quite a while...

I think it's hilarious that Shannon died only like 7 days after Boone.

Alls I gotta say is I'm fucking PUMPED for Tuesday!

Definitely. It's going to be out of control.

What was I right about? other than the fact that yr a babe!

Trying not to add a spoiler, from yesterday's show, the guy said 'you hit me with a rifle butt". Anybody know what season/episode that was? I think it was season 1 but I can't find the episode.

this show is just pomo bullshit that consists of self conciouss l.a. actors immaculately dressed and made up getting knocked out every few seconds and then saying something dramatic relating to something you don't understand or give a shit about to move along another plot point.

Porn? Don't watch it, then. It can't be that hard.

Sounds like David Lynch to me.
