I'd love a graphic novel series.

I'd also love to shoot some short LOST fanfiction shorts. That would be a blast.

Cudder · (05-07-2012, 08:51 PM)

Got just a few more episodes left of S3 and then it's off to Season 4! Weeeee!!

My buddy finished it last week and I hadn't talked to him until now.

He didn't want to chat about it until it had set in that it was over and all of that. Said that he was sad it was over, but wasn't sure what happened in the end.

He thought that they died in the crash and perhaps the show took place on another plane of existence, or they just died. But he said he is starting it again to power through and re-experience it knowing what he does.

Glad he liked it, though. I feel like a lot of people removed from the hype and the ancillary stuff (like blogs and theories online and whatnot) are enjoying it a lot now. I wouldnt trade my experience, though.

I'd love a graphic novel or something covering the events leading up to Hugo and Ben's leadership, and what goes down after they bring back Walt.

Only problem is, I don't think there's anyone left to be an antagonist.

Cudder · (05-10-2012, 07:31 PM)

Sucks that I ruined the S3 finale for myself years ago when I never thought I'd watch the show. I specifically remember watching the "We have to go back" scene on Youtube a long ass time ago. So I also knew about the flashforward thing.

It was still an awesome finale, what with all of the context behind it this time. On to S4!

Lost was never supposed to leave...

We have to go back gaf...

We have to go backkkk!!!!

Ape Gone Insane · (05-11-2012, 12:03 AM)

Yeah, I've started watching other critically acclaimed programs that people rave about eg. Breakng Bad, The Wire, Boardwalk Empire, Deadwood etc. They are good in their own way but I don't get the same thing out of them as I did with Lost.

I'd happily submit to a mind wipe so I can re-watch the show.

I still think ABC eventually throws a ton of money at whoever needs it and returns to this series.

My bro and I were talking about this today...

I said that one thing that would suck about that would be not having the experience of LOST-GAF and the podcasts (Jay and Jack and the official one). He watched it like a year after it finished so he just flew through it, said he liked that better.

He's a complete idiot though.

Lost is my favorite piece of fiction of all time, on any medium.

You guys need to stop bumping this thread, it's like showing me pics of an old girlfriend I need to forget.

Calcaneus · (05-11-2012, 01:41 AM)

One of the best things about watching LOST as it was going on was experiencing it with the thread.

I remember one of the first times I checked out a Lost thread (I don't remember which board) was the episode when Michael shot Ana Lucia and Libby, and everyone was losing their shit. Especially since it was season 2 and people were starting to get frustrated with the dilly-dallying.

lol that's awesome. I kinda feel sad that I'll never be able to post "HoLY FUCK LOST!" again.

Ah, sadly I was one of those people who flew through it after it had finished. I know I would have enjoyed it more with the week by week speculation on forums and listening to podcasts though. I appreciate shows more with speculation, even in 'low speculation' shows (by comparison) such Doctor Who and Ashes to Ashes. It means I'm not completely detached from pondering mysteries after the episode has finished.

smokeymicpot · (05-12-2012, 07:58 AM)

Just started my third full re-watch of the series. The Pilot is one of the best ever. Can't believe it been two years since it ended almost.

It totally doesn't need it, but I'd probably watch another Lost series if ABC were desperate enough to make it. I wouldn't be surprised at them reviving in an attempt to bring back that kind of audience to the network. I don't think anything has succeded in doing that yet.

Damn shame I was not a member here when the show was airing. It would be nice posting reactions and speculations and shit

Yep, it's fun going back through the individual episode discussions and reading the comments.

strafer · (05-14-2012, 06:08 PM)

Reading the pilot thread is interesting :D

I wonder how many of the original cast members could come back.

they wouldn't. they're dead. ;)
but maybe a new cast lands on the island, that'd be cool.

There would have to be at least one returning character so that at the end of the pilot they could say "here we go again" or better yet, Richard, who could say "I'm getting too old for this shit."

Long interview with Damon Lindelof on the ending, the purpose of the flashsideways, lack of answers, disappointment with the ending and more:

Deserves its own thread, I think.

Should be fun :p.

Edit: Interviewer bugs the shit out of me around 6mins in.

strafer · 05:28 PM

Is the interviewer Erigu? :D

Also, that was hard to watch man.

I have no idea how Damon keeps his composure when they guy implies that what happened on the Island didn't actually happen. That bugs the fucking hell out of me.

Oh christ, another one who thinks they were dead all along.

Kwhit10 · (05-22-2012, 05:38 PM)

So did the show go over the interviewers head?

Vagabundo · (05-22-2012, 05:56 PM)

I thought the ending was pretty straight forward. What would lead people to believe they were dead all along?

Doesn't ti explain it right at the end?

Copernicus · (05-22-2012, 05:58 PM)

Twenty five minute interview with a creator of Lost? Fuck you you already took too much of my time.

They mention it in the interview. Some of it's because during the credits, ABC threw up the image of the wreckage from the plane, still on the beach, with no one around. Some took it to mean that the plane crashed, everyone died.

god damn really? people are dense......

Blader5489 · (05-22-2012, 06:11 PM)

It's hard to imagine that the 10 seconds of b-roll that plays during the credits overwrote people's memories of the writers--via Christian--directly explaining that everything happened, they hadn't been dead the whole time, etc...but apparently, it did for many people.

StuBurns · (05-22-2012, 06:13 PM)

The interviewer knows nothing about Lost, very frustrating.

Tim-E · (05-22-2012, 06:13 PM)

I have no clue how otherwise intelligent adults can interpret the ending as them being dead the whole time.

strafer · (05-22-2012, 06:15 PM)

I just noticed I don't have season 5 on DVD, very frustrating since I finised season 4 last night.

planar1280 · (05-22-2012, 06:16 PM)

well the interviewer was right. I also felt 'what was the point' i wanted a bigger ending than that

It's official, Across the Sea was shit because Damon didn't care, damn.
