Wow…touching on the Hurley Bird? That's freakin' cool of them. They weren't obligated to even revisit that.
LOST: Season Six - Wano Edition

-
I know this is excessive bitching, but I'd prefer if they left the Hurley Bird alone. It was never really a pressing matter (it hasn't been seen in 4 seasons), and the answer's probably going to be something really fucking dumb, like THE BIRD WAS JACOB TELLING HURLEY THAT HE WAS THE NEXT PROTECTOR ALL ALONG.
Oh well, those answers are just another good reason to buy that boxset this August. Can't wait.
-
@The:
No they should give some reasoning as to why they choose that particular god to be the statue.
I believe I read somewhere that that statue represented fertility. If that's true it would be the perfect explanation, as women can't give birth on the island… but I don't know for sure if it's true or not. ^^;
Also, I recall Kate asking Jacob why her name was crossed off the list, and he said it was because she became a mother. Which would also explain why women can't give birth in the first place-- if they have a child, the island would never be their top priority, so they lose their candidacy because of that.
-
So anyway, just thinking about the 'MiB can't take form of those whose bodies aren't on the island."
Allrighty. So let's just ASSUME that MAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAYBE somehow Richard carried a lock of his wife's hair or some shit with him, I DUNNO.
How does that explain…......BEN'S MOM!?????????
I just remembered that and was like, FUCK! There's no way in HELL there's anything of her on the island!
Goddamnit...that's really REALLY bad -_-
-
Who ever said that was the MiB? That's like assuming that Jack seeing his father off island was ALSO the MiB.
-
Assuming the Island is sentient, maybe it played a few cards of its own because it knew the ultimate outcome if it made those moves?
-
Who ever said that was the MiB? That's like assuming that Jack seeing his father off island was ALSO the MiB.
But Jack seeing a real ghost or hallucination off the island is an entirely different realm from a lonely but otherwise normal boy seeing the 'ghost' of his mother on the island.
At the window? Sure, maybe it was a kid's imagination. But when she had a conversation with him?
Don't forget how she couldn't cross the fence either.
Bleck. Another sloppy stain on an otherwise incredible series.

So? Why can't it just be that the MiB can take the form of any dead person? (or imaginary person) According to some speculation he can even take the form of animals (Kate's horse, the spider that bit Nikki and Paulo)
-
Why can't it just be that the MiB can take the form of any dead person?
Then why'd he need John Locke's body back on the Island?
Because then it's all for nothing.
-

Perhaps to trick them into believing that Locke really had come back to life, if only long enough for his plan to succeed?
-
After they knew he was dead there was no need for that. Consider Jack 'tricked' since the season 3 finale.
Look, you guys know how much I love the series and when it deserves defending I will defend the shit out of it but this is just sloppy.

Well Greg, with the exception of a few episodes, I've only ever seen every episode of Lost once, so far be it from me to question the reasoning of a far more experienced Lost fan.
However, what about Ben and Sun and co? That's mainly who I was referring to. I just assumed MiB tricked Ben long enough so that he could kill Jacob. True, it does sound convoluted and overly complicated (but then again, so is Lost). You may be right, it may just be sloppy writing, but I'm just trying to explore all possibilities here.
-

Perhaps to maintain the form for extended periods of time he needs the body.
-

And while this makes sense, if that is the case, not addressing that in the show is sloppy. I mean, that's the driving force behind seasons 4-6, they SHOULD have mentioned that (if it's the case).
I mean it's, "HEY WHY DA STATUE!?"
or
"So why were seasons 4-6 important if he could take the form of anyone's body?"
Which is a really important answer? You guys catch my drift.
-
Well, in "across the sea" there's KiB's mom talking to him, his dead birth mom.
-
Right, just as Michael talked to them. But their 'souls' are trapped on the island. And from what we've seen (I aologize if I'm forgetting something) those individuals seem to have died on or around the vicinty of the island.
Which, is not the case with Ben' momma.
HOWEVER, and you may be on to something here, if we are to believe that the island is THE source of ALL life and death then perhaps it makes sense that souls wander there. But if so I have to wonder why Charlie wasn't visited by Sid Vicious at some junction.

This is really amusing as I actually thought they WERE going to go for a LOST ending when I watched it.

On to something indeed. I mean, how did Richard's wife get there?

plot holes
plot holes everywhere -
Ive been re watching the first season and noticed something while watching exodus i noticed something when there on the raft after sawyer dives in for the ruder there is a boat in the background pic below
!
is this a screw up or is it the others boat and if it the others boat how come none of the guys on the raft noticed it when a second ago they were facing that way -

Similar thing have happened. Other islands have gotten in the frame before and boats sometimes accidentally get shot. A small hiccup for a sohw that manages a pretty stunning illusion in how it films everything in just about one location.

11 minutes? I thought it was 20.

This post is deleted!
-
Holy shit at all "The End" nominations O_o;
And Matthew Fox deserves it this year… his character definitely became likable after a long period of "meh" towards him.
Terry O'Quinn is pretty "duh" territory.
-
Lost deserves nothing with such a shitty season.
Dexter better rapes Lost.
Matthew Fox is nowhere near Michael C Hall. -
Best Lead Actor has to go to Hugh Laurie, no questions about it.
-
Best lead actor was proven in the previous golden globes..
Dexter > House -
I don't care what the public thinks. The same public nominated Avatar for Oscars it didn't deserve. Dexter's a good character and so is his actor but they can't compare with the brilliance and complexity of House nor the phenomenal acting of Hugh Laurie.
-
But the latest seasons have been quite a downhill for HOUSE, unlike Dexter…and Laurie already received a lot of awards...
-
Bull, season 6 has to be the best House season (it definitely had the best episodes) and Laurie receiving a number of rewards was for a reason because he's so damn good and that's why he should win again, because he's so damn good at acting his character.
-
@Thousand:
Best Lead Actor has to go to Hugh Laurie, no questions about it.
Yes after this season I would agree with that. Though Matthew Fox is a close second.
@GaaraofTheDesert:Best lead actor was proven in the previous golden globes..
Dexter > HouseThats only because a.) Season Five of House was weak & b.)
The cancer card was played last year.
@Thousand:I don't care what the public thinks. The same public nominated Avatar for Oscars it didn't deserve.
The Public is Stupid.

Yea season six was a real comeback. Full of character development, awesome drame (Chase killing James Earl Jones, that season finale!) and just plain badass House again.
-
The cancer card is irrelevant with this.
Lithgow, C Hall and Dexter's season 4 were amazing. -
Really glad to see Fox get his nomination, but I'm somewhat disappointed to see Josh Halloway get passed over. I really feel like that guy deserves to be seen in the same level as Terry O'Quinn and Michael Emerson.
No chance for Fox, but he deserves the nomination. I'm rooting for Terry for Best Supporting Actor, and Elizabeth Mitchell for Guest Actress. Obviously I want the series to win Best Drama, but I really don't think they'll win.
-
Upon reflecting on it… Josh Holloway REALLY deserves a nomination for these past two seasons.
I can't remember ever giving two shits about him as much as I did in the past two seasons.
But that's mostly a combination of good material for the character and him playing it as he does.
Same could be said about the good Doctor.
-
Terry O'Quinn is a really good actor but he was nowhere near as good in season 6 as he was in previous season although this probaly has more to do with his new character and not being able act to his full potential and house>dexter
-
Anyone who says House is better than Dexter is wrong.
Dexter is the best show of the past decade, while House had its second terrible season in a row. Laurie won't win the Emmy, just like Steve Carell won't win the Emmy either, because he's in series gone bad too.
It's a match between Cranston and Hall, just like always.
-
Season 5 and 6 were terrible? That's news to me. Season 5 was pretty weak but still decent and season 6 was damn fantastic.
I'm not saying House as the show is better than Dexter but the leading actors? It's a no contest.
-
Glad someone finally mentioned Cranston. Fox's nomination is deserved, but he wont win. The performances of Hall, Cranston, and Hamm go above and beyond what the others bring to the table.
As far as O'Quinn and Emerson, being in the same category unfortunately hurts both their chances. That, and Aaron Paul was the spotlight of an amazing Breaking Bad season.
I would expect some recognition in directing or writing for Lost, which I feel it does deserve. It just sucks that both O'Quinn and Emerson being amazing actors that they are, being in the same category.

I couldn't do it. I couldn't hold out.
Well, they showed the epilogue at comicon and someone made a writeup of it….and I couldn't resist and I had to read.
Glad they didn't give every detail or I wouldn't be able to restrain myself but the basic gist of it is there and it sounds very interesting.
Complete set in 1 month + encyclopedia. Can't wait for that.
