Lost season 6 with spoilers beware

You know what I find interesting.... The same person that plays Jacob in Lost has another part on another show that's pretty popular... He's the Devil on Supernatural.

Well in that vein the man in black plays War one of the four horsemen of the apocalypse on Supernatural
 
As much as I like the characters of Jack, Kate, and Sawyer (and to a lesser extent, most of the other regulars) it is Ben and Hurley that I would miss the most if they were killed off.
Does anyone else here find themselves gravitating toward these two characters?
 
Something occured to me last night - just where is this island?

Flight 815 was going from Sydney to Los Angeles when it went down. To me,that implies it went down in the Pacific. Ajira 316 was flying from LA to Guam. That also implies the Pacific.

Richard lived on the Canary Islands and was learning English to go to the New World - generally used to describe the Americas. The Canary Islands are in the Atlantic.

Did the storm blow the Black Rock over the Americas or around Cape Horn?


And on a completely lighter note - one of the names on the cave wall was Latta. Wonder if someone on staff got stung by Icons?

The island can move as we saw when Ben moved the donkey wheel to save it from Widmore. So at one point it was in the atlantic another moment it's in the pacific.
 
All the caves/tunnels under the island as well as the statute seem to be of egytpian origin as well. They didn't likely travel with enough manpower from egypt to the south pacific. They established the island moves or can move. You'd think it'd be much easier to find in the mediteranean as opposed to the south pacific. Maybe that explains all the egyptian building...

Before the 1800's people were sailing around the tip of south africa to get to the indian ocean and the indies. They were doing that in the 1400's. Columbus' trip to the americas was because thought he had a shorter route to the indies that going around SA and thorugh the indian ocean.

A slave trader tells prisoner Richard they're going to the new world. Are you going to take the word of a slave trader? :) If they told him we're going to sell you into slavery in indies, you think he'll take them up on the trip?
 
My latest Spectacularry on the last LOST ep has been up for a few days:

RPF fans might dig how I weave Stonn and pon-farr, Fletch, and The Princess Bride into figuring out Richard's flashback episode. Special thanks to the poster upthread whose "are they the same guy?" theory I blatantly stole. :)

Also, don't click that link to the Zuliekha Robinson interview if you don't want to know Ilana's last name.
 
The Black Rock seemed to be a British Ship, the British took their prisoners to Australia, which at the time could have been considered the "new world" since around 1867 the Americas had been discovered for a few hundred years by then. We all know Australia factors pretty heavy into the story and it could be the ship was traveling down around the horn of Africa to get there.

About the Egyptian stuff, I dunno but I think its worth a mention that the island is connected somehow to Tunisia (via the donkey wheel) which is pretty close to Egypt and could explain how Egyptians got there.
 
Is anybody else disappointed in how young Richard really is? They kept implying this huge length of time that he'd been on the island.. "He's had that job for a very.. VERY long time." "Longer than you can possibly imagine!!" and "Richard? He's always been here." I'd gotten the impression from all of that that he'd been there a lot longer than a measly 150 years. I was thinking more like thousands of years, from the Egyptian times. Now, I know 150 years is a really long time for a normal person, but the Island ain't exactly normal.

I was thinking the exact same thing. I was let down. They definitely made it sound like he was much older, and there MUCH longer. I was hoping he was one of the original inhabitants. Maybe Egyptian. His flashback would be him building that statue or something.

:lol Hilarious. Since this is a "spoiler" thread, can we just say it????
 
I'd like this thread to remain spoiler free for future episodes, if that's okay. The thread title originally referred to discussions of what's happened as a warning to people who hadn't watched yet, I think... Can we put those kinds of spoilers in the hidden spoiler format, so everyone can keep reading here?

Agreed!!
 
I'm not sure I understand.
It sometimes takes me days to watch the episode, and I just avoid this thread until I do.

Right. They're asking about posting things that haven't even aired yet, stuff none of us have seen. For instance, Ilana's last name was not revealed this week; we don't know when it will be.
 
I don't understand, isn't that the definition of a "spoiler"?

Yeah, that's my understanding, too, but I think people are particularly prickly because we've been chewing over this show for six years and there's seven eps left and no one wants to be told Rosebud's the sled ten minutes before CITIZEN KANE is over, you know? :)

There have been TV show threads were people would throw a hissy fit when you talked about the previews for next week they showed at the end of the episode. Same thing when a thread on an upcoming movie when people talked about the trailer.

This is a thread about what has aired on the show. Nothing more. The spoilers, as pointed about above, refer to things that haven't aired yet. People TIVO the show for later and don't want to get spoiled, fine.

I gotta say, i figure a thread on a TV show, whether it be lost or 24 or whatever is going to contain information up through the last aired show. Some people don't get that, so SPOILERS is stuck in the thread. It shouldn't have to be, but it is.

So, maybe we need a new term, I dunno. SPOILERS1 to say we're talking up to last aired episode and SPOILERS2 for talking about things that haven't aired yet. And yeah, it sounds stupid I know. I also think it's dumb to have to have spoilers in a thread about a TV show to indicate we're talking about it up through the last aired show. FYI, the below isn't actually a spoiler...it's not even lost related

It's not like it's hard to type [ spoiler ] and [ / spoiler ] around upcoming events
 
Oh, okay, I understand now.

In specific reference to that "spoiler"....

How is her last name a spoiler? Is that a name I'm stupidly forgetting?
 
Interesting to see that it appears to be the same dagger. Once given by Doggen to Sayid, and once given by Smokey to Richard.
