LOST - ANYONE ELSE WATCHING? (at US airing pace)

Yeah, it was a polar bear!  Good catch!  Also somone on the LOST forum saw that the shark had the same emblem on it that was seen in the inside of the hatch.  My friend Pam did a frame by frame and said that it is definately there.  WEIRD!

[MakTheYak]

Well at first I have to say Roz and I were a bit sceptical - logos on sharks? Pah... we even watched it twice and didn't see anything. It was only when we watched the bit where the shark swims by in slo-mo that we saw it on its tail - the shrieks of exclamation probably woke the neighbours!

And for all you non-believers, here's a lovely screenshot (complete with enhanced-interesting-bit technology^TM:


What do you reckon? Trained sharks? Sharks with tattoos? Biker sharks?

[Bryanjs14]

the only thing that I can think of is that all of it is some kind of set up. Which I would be greatly dissapointed if it was. The whole time we've just been watching a dramatic version of Survivor lol.

[grecopa]

Maybe a mechanical shark?  I'm not sure how you would tatoo a real one. 

[Roz]

There was an awful lot of blood when it was shot though, that's the only thing that stops me from agreeing with you... what do you think - tomato ketchup padded sharks?

What was the list of scientist mentioned in the show last night?  Anyone remember?

[grecopa]

I can't remember the scientists, but I didn't hear anything in the film about something bad happening if you don't transmit the numbers.    They didn't really say what would happen.  They only said there was an "incident" and now you need to enter numbers in the computer.  Seems sort of like a safety measure to me to make sure everyone is still ok.  Maybe if they stop entering #'s someone will come and rescue them. 
You're right Roz, there was blood from the shark.  After last nights show I think it's all part of the biology experiments that were going on that we saw in the film.

Modified post:
I think one of the scientists was: B.F. Skinner, behavioral conditioning

Hooray that Rose's husband is alive and kicking, although isn't it strange the way they are shoring themselves up - wouldn't you think he'd say "oh thank the Lord she's alive (it seems plausible after all we learned that they are both Christians in the early part of series 1) and ask one of our crew to take him to her... why attack our survivors in this impertinent manner?

It's plain rude...

There does seem to be a little more to it though, there were 23 (?) or so of them at first and they looked like they had about 10-12 still alive! Are they being attacked by boar/polar bear? Or what about the disease that was talked about before (the hatch had quarantine written on it)

There didn't seem to be anyone lying down / being attended to - but if they don't have a doctor in their group then perhaps they have suffered a little more badly than our own group!

[Bryanjs14]

I think it is the others. I think that the real "others" have been killing off the new tribe of people one by one, and that is why they have lost so many. Just a guess. Hopefully we'll find out in two days

[Roz]

It seems like it's something along those lines. I wonder whether the whispers in the forest that people have been hearing are from the "lost boys" group (the others, the people with young or female looking legs, and a bandaged teddy bear) - but if they were so brutal (remember the corpse that Jin came across?) then how come our group have remained unscathed?

And how come Locke's not had any more trouble with his legs recently? Do we assume when he took Boone to the plane he had strayed too far away from what was helping him heal? Is it possible the electromagnetic field's healing properties are keeping him on two legs?

LOST fans should check out the news article on the front page of the shack

LOST, great show, with the best character in current television: John Locke. So, I got bored one night, and thought this up. Those of you who are, for whatever reason, familier with those annoying WWJD braclets will get this. 



A bit insperational, yeah?

Another toast auction.

I have been away from The Forum for some time but have been watching Lost and enjoying the new shows.  I like the new cast characters very much and am waiting with baited breath to see who the next victim is next Wednesday.  I am not going to read the spoiler area but does anyone have a guess?  Mine is the blond haired lady from the other set of survivors.  Not sure why I chose her but I am hoping that it is not one of the regulars!

[Roz]

Yeah me too - if it was Sawyer it would break the hearts of a lot of female fans of the show, although to be fair that wound is getting worse.

I know what you mean about the blond lady - she was on my list too, somehow she seems nervous and weak, and she's just been placed in the group recently - they killed off the teacher (the dynamite guy) in much the same way.

I worry that it might be Bernard though - because the people of LOST might enjoy the irony that he survived a plane crash and so did his wife but then later didn't make it - poor Rose - that would be awful, although there could be a touching moment when she gave him back his wedding ring (she wears it around her neck on flights because his hands swell with the altitude - or so the story goes)

[Roz]

OK guys, so after the long wait, we are finally about to see the next episode of LOST... it's not long now - we'll find out who dies

[RupT]

guys, this is just not cricket..... why has nobody written spoiler alert or such anywhere here??? I alreay know too much and ive only seen upto episode 4 of season 2!!!!!

Oh God, that would be AWFUL if it's Bernard. It would break my heart. That was such a sweet moment when he found out she's alive. :'(   Of course, I really don't want ANYONE to die....

[Roz]

Sorry Rup - I'm going to rename this the US thread or something so that people know to be up to date with ABC airings.

I'm glad there's some soul left on the forum honourable enough not to have looked at the spoilers too

*ducks as Kelly aims*

[grecopa]

Aims and fires!  *Bang*Bang*!!  Darn, I missed. 

It's ok, *NOT A SPOILER*
Addition @ 10:08 est:  Just saw the new show.  The flashbacks gave me more insight into a character I wasn't quite fond of, but now I feel sorry for.  I wish the LOST episodes were at least 2 hours long.  The story was good, but I didn't get any really helpful info from it.  I think next weeks episode will explain a whole lot, though.
