Lost - Season Three


Recommended Posts

I say cut down on the flashbacks and progress with the "now" stories. It seems like flashbacks are taking as much time as the current events, though I haven't actually kept a tab on how this was done in the first two seasons. This should allow them to get a lot more of the story out there.

I really enjoy the flashbacks myself. I like getting to know the characters and their rich history. The problem isn't that there are to many flashbacks, the problem is the current events are offering up more questions than answers. If they'd stop bringing up more questions and answer a few that's been around for a long time (aka the shark from Season One, etc.), then I'd be a happy camper with Lost.

Season 1 covered 42 days on the island

Season 2 23

Season 3 16

Sad that a show with such a perfect season one has turned into something I have to watch because I've invested so much time and money into. It should be a show that I want to watch, but instead I dread watching it. I've said it before, I'll say it again: if the show were to be canceled right now, I honestly don't think I'd be disappointed. Sad :(

See the patteren...... so if it does contune, we'll have 6 seasons...
Where do you get 6 seasons? Nothing in those declining numbers gives me 6 seasons. All that is doing is just stating how many days the season covered. We don't know how many days the series will cover and besides that we don't know how many days season three will cover. I haven't seen anything official that states season three will be 13 days or 20 days.
i also read some where the end date for lost will be

may 24th 2010

That sounds speculative at best. If they are just now trying to decide when the end should be, I think that date is completely made up IMO.

Lol looks like we don't have a true lost fan j/k :laugh: ... 42, 23, 16, (do you see where this is going now :whistle: ) 15, 8, 4 = 6 numbers = 6 seasons...

That doesn't necessarily have anything to do with how many seasons there are. If that were true, each number would have something to do with their corresponding season wouldn't it? I think you're reading to much into it.

pure speculation. If the rating still droping like is doing right now, the show will end on this season :p

Yeah!!!...I think the next part of the season will seriously rock if they get it right and be a great ending in which I read earlier

Promised the season finale to involve Desmond and Penny

so that's gonna be cool :)

I think we can assume that they were lying. No true lost fan would hold on to an episode for this long just "because".

I think a season 4 should be done.. but that should be it. :)

These were critics if I'm not mistaken, which have actually been given at least the first episode of the second half of the third season.

I think the current status with the leak so there will be no leak...I think the sources who said they had it didnt and just wanted cause attention tho the owner of a lost fansite does have connections to a critic who had it when asked if he could loan it the critic said no more then his life's worth...that sums it up really :)

he's just pointing out the pattern of the numbers showing up in the entire series in order counting down. it may turn out to be nothing but it's interesting that three numbers all in order have shown up. if it does turn out to be the number of days left in each season, then the seasons seem to be focusing more and more only on a smaller set of time as the seasons progress. this would also mean d-day would be on the 108th day. again.. maybe it doesnt mean anything but it's interesting that a pattern seems to be emerging.

If this pattern is true, the final season may start in january rather in sreptember/october...

The whole numbers and season theorie wasn't from me, rather then another lost fan on a lost dissustion borad

Picking at Straws comes to mind...there hasn't been any definite end date...but I can see why people would want to guess :)

I don't see why this would have to require an end date as opposed to other shows. I mean, what other TV show has to set an end date to finish telling the story? Surely people didn't think 24 would go into six seasons, or seven for CSI. Are FOX and CBS to now require an end date to those shows? Requiring an end date just doesn't seem logical. Having a goal in mind is good, but having to say "this is where it all ends no matter what" just seems so out of place. This doesn't mean that there shouldn't be something to end the show at, by no means, but it seems restricting to the writers who want to tell so much. Of course, delaying the inevitable is far worse.

Lost is nothing like most other shows. This isn't like CSI, 24, or other shows like those. This show has a beginning: the plain crashing on the island; and a middle: find the hatch and the "Others"; and an ending: what the island is all about, what the hatches are all about, who the others really are, and of course getting off the island. Of course there has to be an ending, there's no possible way to keep it going because fans will loose interest a lot faster than with other shows and that has been proven because of the poor ratings that season two and the beginning of season three brought.

I understand those reasons, but I still don't think it has to force an end date so long as the show can maintain interest, which it hasn't because people, and ABC, are demanding answers and not more questions. Unfortunately, the show is only aired once a week so they can only tell so much within the approximate 43 minute window that they are alloted.

1. The first line in the episode is ''Hello,'' and it is uttered by one of the most menacing and mysterious characters in the Lost verse.

2. If you want to get a head start on the homework you'll be doing after watching the episode, investigate the following: Edmund Burke, A Clockwork Orange, and A Brief History of Time.

3. For the second straight episode, there is a fleeting yet conspicuous reference to the name ''Jacob.'' This time, the context is decidedly religious.

4. According to recent statements by the producers, and per the timeline that's been suggested in the show, the events that are currently transpiring in Lost are taking place in late November 2004, possibly very early December 2004. At the end of ''Not In Portland,'' a character reveals the exact amount of time that he/she has been on the island. When you do the math, you will get an Estimated Date that comes suspiciously close to the exact date of an infamous, real-world catastrophe. Coincidence?

    • I don’t get why if I bought the game on the last get I needed to pay $40 to upgrade to the new version in the first place and people who love the game and play a lot would have upgraded already so this is just PR and a chance to grab new players who forgot the game long time ago I think
    • The term "use" is doing a lot of heavy lifting in that headline. "Use" can mean opening ChatGPT occasionally to ask for the definition of a word or information about a specific topic. If you frame the question around how many people use it as a daily driver in their work or personal lives, that number is a lot smaller. Those are the people who pay for AI. Nearly everyone else is happy to use it for free, but doesn't see enough value in it to pay for it.
    • No support for Windows Hello!
    • I think you meant the "ntfs3" driver, but yes there have been a lot of fixes for it in this release and previous releases, not 100% sure if the issue you mentioned is fixed though. In any case, the new "ntfs" driver in 7.1 doesn't have that issue (at least, no reports of such have come thru), but your kernel needs to explicitly enable support for the new driver first (like how CachyOS kernel has it), and you need to edit your mount points in /etc/fstab to use "ntfs" instead of the other drivers.
    • Epic Games says Unreal Engine 6 will help developers "build content faster" using AI models by Pulasthi Ariyasinghe Epic Games is rolling out the latest major update to Unreal Engine 5 today, and at the same time, the company also dropped some information on the next-generation version of the product, Unreal Engine 6. This was already revealed a few weeks ago alongside the new Rocket League upgrade reveal. The company says it is combining the features of Unreal Engine and Unreal Editor for Fortnite to create this new version of its popular media creation tool. On top of creating entire games, the new engine will also focus on letting developers operate large-scale live service titles more easily, whether by shipping content into their own ecosystems or into Fortnite. The use of large language models is also mentioned here, with Epic saying it will be a core part of the engine. "We see LLMs, generative AI models, and tools like Claude and Codex playing a central role in helping you build content faster while maintaining the creative control you need," adds the company. Here is the rundown of what's new about version 6 of Unreal Engine: With all these changes to the programming model, portability upgrades, and generative AI integration, Epic says the new version of the engine will "change a lot about how games are made." The company aims to ship Unreal Engine 6 into early access in late 2027, with a full release planned for 12-18 months later. Epic Games also dropped a lengthy blog post about the new Unreal Engine 5.8 update for game developers over here. The release is focused on delivering better performance, customization, and streamlined workflows for development teams. This will be the final major update for this version of the engine before Epic switches to focus fully on Unreal Engine 6's early access launch.
