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


Recommended Posts

Yeah same here, but I think it's only fair. Not our fault that Channel4's budget is so stingy.

Side-note: How much of a scam are the DVD sets over here?! Releasing Season 1 as two sets so they could get more money out of us and more people would watch the 2nd half on Channel4 :(

Personally I only saw the last two or three episodes of Season 1 and then picked it up from Season 2. Seems to me like Season 2 has all the interesting bits?

funny you say that I stopped watching season 1 4 episodes before the end and then watched 9 episodes of season 2 straight off so I was up to date...many friends of mine are up to date in season 2 as well so its cool...hate being behind others...or "the others" :rofl: :laugh:

the box sets are a con...2 parts make it pricey and I want to get them but not that badly...rather wait till theres a complete season1...there is for america i think.

Yeah I'll get my sets ordered over from the US aswell, I think they're probably cheaper over there than they are over here anyway.

It's the same with CSI but I think they do that in the US too to make it more affordable. Season 1 episodes 1.1 to 1.11 (3 discs) and Season 1 episodes 1.12 to 1.24 (3 discs) for example. Damn HMV trying to charge you ?45 for 3 discs of CSI >_<

Lost - The Complete First Season DVD (2004)

Here are some other things which will be in tomorrow's episode apparently, warning, may spoil it slightly.

"Eko [is] connected into the story of the drug plane," says executive producer Carlton Cuse. "People are curious about where that plane came from. We're gonna explain that." And what's Eko been up to with that big stick he's always carrying around? Reveals executive producer and cocreator Damon Lindelof, "He's carving Scripture on it." Remember the monster? We last saw it in May's season finale, when it appeared as a slithering mass of black smoke. "We will be seeing the monster in the January 11 episode," Lindelof says. Indeed, one character will have an up-close-and-personal encounter with the thing so viewers will get a better, longer look, too. Source: TV Guide (Printed edition)

Personal theory:

I don't think Eko was on the main plane. I think he either survived the drug plane crash, was the sole survivor and therefore turned to religion since those were the only resources he had, or he knew about the drug plane and was trying to locate it, hence his reaction when he found out Charlie knew where it was. Eko didn't appear to be looking for the drug plane before, but seemed very at home in the jungle.

that is a verry good therorie , seeing the Real one and then your personal theorie, seems, at least to me, fir right in.

OK I'm changing my theory now based on new info I have. Warning: The spoiler in my spoiler tags is a real one, it will ruin tomorrow's episode for you if you look at it! You have been warned.

Facts:

Eko is a Nigerian warlord. He goes into a church and demands that the minister in the church (Eko's brother) ordains him as a priest. (We will see this as a flashback tomorrow).

Speculation:

I'm thinking therefore that the drugs on the plane belonged to Eko. The religous theme was his cover for moving the drugs in and out of Nigeria to whatever the closest country is to the island. Sheer coincidence (as seems popular on the show) means that Eko has crash landed onto an island where one of his shipments went missing. He does not know this of course until he finds out that Charlie has a virgin mary statue. His interest is sparked, he sees the statue and instantly recognises it as one of his.

As for the gifs posted a few pages back which supposedly show the black smoke monster hitting the engine in the pilot causing it to blow up, the guys at The Fuselage say:

the explosion of the engine was caused by a guy getting sucked up into the works, not the smoke monster. whatever it is that people see on the freeze frame - it is NOT the black smoke monster.

The Dharma Flash Thing, with memberid, has no information, its going by a directory based.

	if (Key.getCode() == 13)
	{
		state = -1;
		loadVariables("check.php?code=" + memberid.text, "");
		gotoAndPlay(2112);
	} // end if
};

Is the code.. what its saying is take the text from the input and go to that site. the php file will do the rest, so it could be anything :(

Isn't that how one would expect it to work?

i believe your theory.. but you're a little late... i had the exact same theory that i posted on dec 1st..lol

https://www.neowin.net/forum/index.php?show...=224293&st=1455

ignore the whole get code bit thing. that just tells the flash what to do when u press enter

the script takes the value of memberid u inputted and sends it to check.php. ifits right u get a nice output of a url which is the location of the next part of the puzzle

Read my revised theory. I think it's more likely

the Oceanic flight has crashed by pure coincidence onto an island which happens to contain a downed drug plane which is connected to one of the passengers.

Anyway, we need more conspiracy theories about the monster since it's being revealed today supposedly.

    • I and many others did not vote to get out of the E.u because of Putin or Farage, we did so for our own reasons. You don't have to tel me what my own did or did not do when it comes to the E.U. The EEC is or was the European Economic Community, a different beast to what the E.U is now.The EEC was a mainly about trading, the E.U have gone far beyond that and as I have said before, is now more of a United States of Europe. The U.K did not vote to join a United States of Europe. Anyway, they did not want us in there in the first place, Charles de Gaulle stopped us joining as he claimed we didn’t agree with the core ideas of integration. He was not wrong and that is why we voted out of the E.U when the time came. I was not old enough to vote the first time. My only regret is that we did not have the referendum years ago and got out years ago. If we rejoined, we would have to agree to join the Euro and no doubt Schengen, agree with freedom of movement, we have enough problem with people coming over here as it is. i have no problem with people coming over here if they work and don't try to push their way of life onto us. The E.U has a currency, freedom of movement, an anthem a flag, a parliament, well they are there, not sure if they do anything. Don't sound like something that is just for trading. Oh yeah, also wanted a euro Army. How many stupid rules have the E.U made that we had to follow? I doubt I will see the Uk rejoin the E.U, which suits me. Oh yeah, my partner is Polish, she came over here before Poland joined the E.U and she got fed up of people just coming over here with ease, while she had to struggle. She is now a British citizen and have been for a fair few years
    • Hello, Paul. Thanks for the editorial. It was interesting. I'm going research more into the app and its concept. Of course, if you know me at all, you know that I'd say your articles needs some editing! I a;ways do, don't I? For instance, the article occasionally mentions a concept before defining it, e.g., relays.
    • Screamer is 50% off on Steam, making it £24.99 here in the UK: https://store.steampowered.com/app/2814990/Screamer/ You might remember the series from the mid 90s / early 2000s, this new game is also by Milestone who created the older games.
    • U.S. partially reverses Anthropic AI ban for Mythos but keeps Fable 5 off the market by Karthik Mudaliar Anthropic says that the U.S. government has finally allowed it to restore Claude Mythos 5. But of course, there's a catch. The rollout is again for a limited set of U.S. organizations that operate and defend critical infrastructure. The company announced this in a post on X (formerly Twitter). This does not mean that Anthropic's latest frontier models are back to normal availability. Fable 5, which was a tuned version of Mythos 5 for public release, remains unavailable. Anthropic said that it is still working with the government to expand Mythos 5 access and make Fable 5 available again, but there's no timeline. Reports from Bloomberg and Reuters say that this decision actually came through a letter from the U.S. Commerce Department. According to Reuters, this would allow more than 100 companies and institutions access to Mythos 5. Reuters also reported that Commerce Secretary Howard Lutnick’s letter removes the need for export licenses for approved companies’ non-US citizen employees, as well as Anthropic’s own non-US citizen employees, while restrictions remain for organizations outside the approved list. Anthropic isn't alone with this kind of controlled rollout. OpenAI's newest model family, GPT 5.6, was announced just yesterday, but isn't available for everyone yet. In its announcement, OpenAI also said that access to these models is initially limited to a select group of trusted partners and organizations, with broader access planned later this year. Both of these cases show that frontier AI launches are no longer just ordinary product releases and more like slow and vetted deployments shaped heavily by the U.S. government.
