"Lost" TV Show - Currently Season 2 (US aired)


Recommended Posts

Locke is the king :cool:

John Locke is, beyond a shadow of a doubt, my favorite character on the show (Y) I can only hope I am as courageous and brave at his age as he is. Man oh man was this ep great.

A question for Lost devotees (and I ask without intentionally trying to spoil): Do you guys think that the creator/writer of Lost had this specific story-line from the get-go (the beginning)? Reason I ask is Jack was originally supposed to die in the pilot episode :o

Oh GREAT WAY TO START THE SEASON

My take, on the hatch It is some kind of test facility that does tests on people but they have to be kids, thats why they took the french ladies baby, the black kid (forgot his name)....also those people Hurley ran into who were spooked by the numbers were people who had been tested on...ok a bit out there but it was the first thing that came to my mind soon as I saw the inside where that dude was... and that doctor Jack met before is of course a doctor there :p

They had a general idea for what the island is, but not really the characters. They basically knew the setting and then created some characters to throw in there. Jack easily could have died, which is the same with everyone else. It doesn't change what the island is, so anyone is expendible.

I'm just creeped out by a few things:

-All that computer equipment is old as crap. So, why does Desmond have a brand spanking new washer and drier?

-What does that computer do anyways?

-WTF was he injecting into himself? I'll have to check the HR-HDTV rip for that.

-What in the hell was that Walt scene all about?

Well, the hatch was opened, but there are now way too many questions to answer. It's a good thing they didn't end inside the hatch last season, that would have led to a revolt for sure... :D

^Yeah. JJ Abrams said that he knew what was on the island when he was writing it. And it is not dinsaurs :D

Amazing episode. After I saw Desmond, I thought to myself, that can't be "the guy". Turns out, he was. Wow.

So many more questions need to be answered now. Come on next weeek! :)

edit: the numbers on the vile were CR 4-81516-23 42

WTF!

Edited by Sniper34123

Yeah, I slowed down the Tivo and I saw the numbers on the vial as well.

But guess what, it's even better than that... when Desmond first types into the keyboard, slow it down and watch what he types. He uses the top row and you can CLEARLY see he is typing the numbers! If you don't believe me, check it out in slow motion. Hell, you can plainly see it in regular speed too!

A few other things I noticed:

1) Desmond some how has access to a food supply, running water, electricity, etc.

2) It looks like he works for some company or the place was built by some company. The logo on the panel where he pulls the injection from is the same logo on the suit that he slips on when he feels the explosion.

3) At the end, when Jack realizes he knows Desmond, Desmond has NO look of surprise whatsoever on his face... as if he was expecting Jack!

4) What in the world was that wall in the tunnel that was all blocked up and full of concrete buckets?! Something in there had an enourmously powerful magnetic field because it attracted Jack's key on his neck. Maybe this could have thrown off the plane's navigational equipment causing it to crash??

5) The whole little mirror telescope thing was awesome!

I'll post more things on here as I remember more but hopefully this will get you thinking.

BTW, the whole Shannon seeing Walt was FREAKY!

Don't forget the number 108 painted on the wall, which is sum of "the numbers" added together.

And a picture of an eye in front of the words M SICK. "EYE M SICK".

The words quarantined appeared under the lid of the hatch. Meaning, the outside was quarantined?

Damn! I was trying to figure out what in the hell 108 meant! Wow...

And I had the same thoughts about the quaranteen signage! What we were thinking was that the island has some sort of disease (which is why Danielle killed her crew... they were 'infected'). This would work hand in hand with why Desmond injected maybe some sort of vaccine into his arm.

Excellent Theory!!!

AMAZING episode... UGH, man I hate this show. Keeps me so wrapped around it, thinking of different theories, etc...

The people who wrote this are great at building and secret keeping, that's for damn sure.

    • Ignoring the fact that this "colony" kicked the empire of King George's arse during those early years... You are confusing the First Industrial Revolution (which was clearly pulled out of some butt-hurt Brit historian's arse after the fact) with the Second Industrial Revolution (aka now called the Technological Revolution, undoubtedly by that same butt-hurt Brit), which transitioned the world from the UK/UPS Empire to the USA as the world's only superpower. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Industrial_Revolution I hope you realize that I am having big fun here.
    • OpenAI announces GPT‑5.6 Sol, its next-generation flagship model beating Claude Mythos 5 by Pradeep Viswanathan Credit: OpenAI OpenAI today announced a limited preview of its new GPT-5.6 model series, which includes the Sol, Terra, and Luna models targeting different price points. GPT-5.6 Sol is the flagship model targeted at demanding reasoning and agentic workloads. GPT-5.6 Terra is positioned as a balanced model for everyday work, featuring performance competitive with GPT-5.5 while being half the cost. GPT-5.6 Luna is the fastest and most affordable model, delivering strong capability at a lower price point. Unlike previous model releases from OpenAI, GPT-5.6 is starting with a limited preview for a small group of trusted partners due to U.S. government restrictions. As expected, OpenAI previewed its plans and the models' capabilities to the U.S. government ahead of launch, and the government asked OpenAI to limit the first wave of access to select partners. OpenAI also mentioned in the official announcement blog post that it does not believe this type of government access process should become the long-term default. OpenAI highlighted that GPT-5.6 Sol comes with a robust safety stack featuring improved protections for higher-risk activity, sensitive cyber requests, and repeated misuse. The company also spent several weeks pressure-testing the system and hardening it against real-world attacks. On the capability side, as expected, GPT-5.6 Sol is OpenAI’s strongest model yet. It delivers better results in agentic performance across coding, biology, and cybersecurity. On the Terminal-Bench 2.1 benchmark, which tests command-line workflows requiring planning, iteration, and tool coordination, GPT-5.6 Sol sets a new record with a score of 91.9%, beating Anthropic's Claude Mythos 5. Additionally, GPT-5.6 introduces a new "max" reasoning effort for even deeper reasoning. The new "ultra" mode uses subagents to accelerate complex work beyond what a single agent can handle. Pricing starts at $5 per million input tokens and $30 per million output tokens for Sol. Terra costs $2.50 for input and $15 for output, while Luna costs $1 for input and $6 for output. GPT-5.6 comes with more predictable prompt caching, including support for explicit cache breakpoints and a 30-minute minimum cache life. Sol will also launch on Cerebras in July at speeds up to 750 tokens per second for select customers. OpenAI plans to make GPT-5.6 Sol, Terra, and Luna broadly available in ChatGPT, Codex, and the API in the coming weeks.
    • I'm not sure if you are trolling because I saw people saying this with the straight face, but there were no United States of America when industrial revolution started, just United Colonies 🤣 p.s. I'm not British, so I'm not offended.
    • Glad I uninstalled this incredibly buggy browser. Looking at that changelog, they clearly don't test their updates at all.
