Lost - Season Three


Recommended Posts

I love the idea of the show, but I must say I was extremely disappointed with last nights episode. Why waste the majority of the show giving us the details of Kate's marriage, when it has nothing to do with the mysteries going on here. I feel like some of these flashbacks are just "fillers" and then we get a few minutes of the good stuff. Anyone else feel the same?

It was not "filler" it showed how Kate even though she loved that dude from firefly, still could not make a commitment and stick with him....flash forward to last night and it shows she loves Sawyer and is willing to make a commitment and wants to stick it out with him...or that?s how I viewed it......And am I the only person who likes Sawyer more than Jac:p:p For that matter Sawyer is really the only male lead character I care for...hell of a long wait for the next episode:pinch:h:

I love how after every episode, people are ready to pull the plug, claiming the show's jumped the shark or that the writers don't know where the plot is going.

But you keep watching every week anyway...

Like I've been saying for a while now. People are annoyed that they aren't getting answers and want to stop watching but if they do and then it starts getting good they will feel stupid. Everyone wants to get there moneys worth just replace money with time wasted watching filler episodes for the good bits.

I felt the pacing of the last ep was horrible, but it was a good character development episode. It was really good in that aspect. It shows how smart Jack is really, and the emotions from Kate and Sawyer were fantastic. When Kate and Jack were talking it was one of the best parts of the ep for me. Of course the ending was great and filled with suspense, I havn't seen the promo for Feb yet, but I wonder what will happen when they get to the edge of the island? Maybe get a boat/get trapped?

So much for the supposedly "best" episode of the six. If there's a reason I keep watching this, is because I sooner or later, they will have to finally give answers. But come on:

- How about the "staged" sawyer's execution? That guy would kill him off just like that? It wasn't Sawyer who killed his wife, and most importantly, Sun had every reason in the world to shot that woman. Plus, Juliette told Kate that she could prevent sayer from dying if Jack performed the surgery on Ben. Jack agrees and that guy goes to kill sawyer anyway?

- Did we learn anything about the others in this past episodes? I'd say nothing at all. And this season IS weird. They showed very little scenes of the beach. Nobody seems to be asking or wondering what happened with Michael and the kid. God, they even killed a character and their reactions are like "Ok, let's just bury him".

- Who's the girl we saw today (the one that saved Claire) ? For some reason I got the impression she was ben's daughter... and how did she know they were going to kill sawyer?

Beacuse Sawyer gave Danny **** ever since the biganing when they were captured. So danny wan't to take his anger out on him..

I know, I was wondering the same thing with mike and walt. and with eko, that was kind of odd.

- Who's the girl we saw today (the one that saved Claire) ? For some reason I got the impression she was ben's daughter... and how did she know they were going to kill sawyer?

That Girl is the french womans Daughter, who was kidnaped by the others 16 years ago. So, the others raised her. But I wouldn't be surprised if ben was the one that reasied her like his own child. Since Alex is with the others, I'm sure she found out some how, or saw her B/F body or something.

for all those who are complaining that they are about to switch off. switch off. -If you want to know what happened in the season and dont want to have to wait and watch the episodes, then watch the pre season opening episode!

It will quickly recap the season that has just passed in one hour.

Personally, I dont mind having to wait. it what they do to keep you locked in and it works. The style I find quite appealing and that is why I watch it.

Would you rather have every other week reruns? would you wanted to wait till january? or would you want the way we have it now? All 3 were considered by the team and i think the one they chose is the best. rewatch seasons 1 and 2 on DVD and season 3 on abc.com or itunes.

- Who's the girl we saw today (the one that saved Claire) ? For some reason I got the impression she was ben's daughter... and how did she know they were going to kill sawyer?

That's Ale(y)x, daughter of Danielle (the french woman). Back in S1 it was revealed that she was taken from Danielle during one of the Others' incursions onto the main island and Danielle hadn't seen her since. We have seen her working both with the others and against them; she was working with them when Michael was captured and also at the fake Others camp on the main island, and working against them this season, talking to Kate through the bushes and now demanding to speak to Ben with the slingshot.

Bu why the &*!$ did she seem to care so much about Ben? Is it too far-fetched to consider that Ben is perhaps her father (or other relation)?

And where has Danielle been all this time? I think she's one of the last wildcards in the show (her, the smoke monster, maybe: the Black Rock). As I recall we haven't seen Danielle since Ben got caught in one of her traps (many Wednesdays ago). How much does Danielle know about The Others? Does she know anything about their true identities? To what extent has she explored the island? Does she know of the other Dharma stations and what they do?

What's bugging me the most is the smoke monster. What the bloody hell is it? Recalling the blacklight map on the back of the blast door in the hatch (which was destroyed), there were several mentions of something called Cerberus, one of them occuring very close to the location of The Black Rock. Danielle said something about the area where the Black Rock was as being like a "quarantine zone" or "dark area" (I can't remember exactly) and it was there that Jack, Kate, Hurley and Locke first saw the smoke monster. Danielle said it was the "security system". The map made note of a "catastrophic malfunction of security system". Security system for the island itself? Security system for a certain part of the island? Security system for something else (like population control, psycological control, some other kind of control)? Security system at all?

More questions than answers, indeed.

Beacuse Sawyer gave Danny **** ever since the biganing when they were captured. So danny wan't to take his anger out on him..

Yeah, I know. But still, you dont plan on when your anger is going to kill someone. The way it was done, pre-meditated, but it still seemed so random to me...

What was up with Eko's whoop ass stick? "Lift your eyes and look north?". Do you think Eko found the other Island or something?

That's what I was thinking, maybe the alcatraz island is just off the very north of the island. Or there's something hidden in the north at any rate e.g. the arrow hatch, maybe housing the one-eyed man

i don't understand why jack didn't use ben as a hostage earlier when had a gun pointed at him... why wait till surgery?

kinda weak sauce in my opinion.

he had this plan all thought out, he knew they were gonna kill sawyer if he didnt do the surgery, so there was this plan....

Now, did she "officaly" pick sawyer? or is there more to the love trangle in february?

or maybe he is telling them to look at the north star to find their way, since compasses are getting disturbed by the magnetic field :boo:

I love how after every episode, people are ready to pull the plug, claiming the show's jumped the shark or that the writers don't know where the plot is going.

Because if you already invested two years to a show you're kinda of committed even if it seems like its just going to end ugly

    • Windows 11 KB5094126, KB5093998 bugging out Office apps but it may not be Microsoft's fault by Sayan Sen Microsoft last week released Windows 11 KB5094126 and KB5093998 as the latest Patch Tuesday updates. Following that the company also published the accompanying dynamic updates under KB5094149, KB5095971, and KB5094156. Although the tech giant did not acknowledge any major problems, some users online reported various issues ranging from OneDrive and Dropbox access problems, BitLocker recovery lockouts, to blue screens and BSODs. You can read about them in this dedicated piece. While there is still no confirmation about those problems from Microsoft the company has admitted to another bug which we did not report on. The tech giant has confirmed it has received reports of an issue in which certain third-party applications may be unable to launch Microsoft Office apps or open Office documents after installing the Patch Tuesday. This affects both Windows 11 as well as Windows 10. The company says the problem impacts a subset of applications that rely on OLE (Object Linking and Embedding) automation to communicate with Microsoft Office programs. According to Microsoft, affected scenarios involve third-party software attempting to open Office applications or documents from within their own interface. In such cases, the Office program may fail to launch altogether, or the requested document may not open. Oddly there may not be any error message, which probably makes the issue difficult to diagnose. The bug affects several Office products, including Word, Excel, PowerPoint, Access, and other apps in the Microsoft Office suite when they are launched through the affected software. These include tax and accounting software such as CCH Engagement and Workpaper Manager, dental practice management solutions like Dentrix and Softdent, as well as the popular research and reference management tool Zotero. Microsoft adds that other applications using similar Office integration methods could also experience the same problematic behavior. To understand the issue it is important to look at OLE, the Microsoft technology involved. OLE allows different applications to work together and share data, while its Automation feature lets one program control another. Thus this enables third-party software to launch Microsoft Office apps, open documents, and perform tasks automatically without requiring users to switch between programs. Because many accounting, healthcare, research, and business applications rely on OLE automation to interact with Word, Excel, PowerPoint, and other Office apps, any disruption can break those workflows. As a result, affected software may be unable to open Office documents or launch Office applications even though the programs themselves continue to work normally. At the moment the company has not provided a permanent fix though it has confirmed that engineers are actively working on a resolution, which will be delivered through a future Windows update. As such additional details will be shared once more information becomes available. In the meantime, Microsoft recommends a simple workaround for affected users whic is to open the Office application or document directly rather than launching it through the third-party program. For enterprise customers and organizations managing larger deployments, Microsoft says an additional mitigation is available. Admins experiencing the problem on their managed devices are advised to contact Microsoft Support for business to obtain and apply the workaround.
