Lost - Season 5


Recommended Posts

Wow, just saw the promo for next weeks, I thought last weeks promo was awesome!

Hurley: " There's a body bag here with a body in it" - :laugh:

From the spoiler, does this mean that Miles knows about Pierre and could even be his like son? And very odd about Miles being able to see dead people...

Anyways, great episode. I was quite surprised about finding out Ben not doing his dirty work and just getting owned by Desmond. Ilana must be working for Widmore, because clearly by the way she doesn't behave like someone who just came out of a plane crash by wacking Frank with a gun. And by that picture posted by Rappy, couldn't Jacob be like a descendent of Anubis or something, and working for him to benefit the island?

"In the shadow of the statue". That obviously refers to the Temple. So she knows about the island and what to expect there. Now the question is how many of the other crash survivors are with her. Ceaser obviously wasn't one of them and when he got shot by Ben was so unexpected as I thought Ben would use him to keep John away from him.

Yep. Right on about Anubis. Also, this stuff gets way deeper if you read through all the different Wikipedia articles. I found some links on DARKUFO that explains so much about the mythology behind Lost. For example, ever wonder why it's called Oceanic Airlines? Read this! http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Island#Oceanic_islands And remember that thing Illana said, "what lies in the shadow of the statue?" You might understand that more if you read this. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Egyptian_soul

Also, ever wonder what the smoke monster is? It could be one or both of these things. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ammit or http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Apep

Also, this week's episode is called "Some Like It Hoth." A reference to Star Wars? Most definitely considering the creators are huge Star Wars geeks, but if you look deeper you'll find this. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Thoth

And could this be the island? Guess what it means! Underworld. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Duat

Remember how Christian said you have a long journey ahead of you? Could he be talking about the journey to http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Aaru

Doesn't this sound like a bald, suddenly alive character on the show? http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Osiris

It's pretty wild stuff!!

It's just weird summoning the monster like that, and somehow younger Ben reminds me of Hitler, the hair I guess.

I thought the exact same thing. He looked like Hitler without the stache... i wonder if they meant to do that?

looks more like Anubis summoning smokey

theory time: Always prepared my theory for when one of my three gods was revealed and I was right on the money, this isn't my offical theory but putting it out there... Jacob takes orders from Anubis who controls smokey and therefor controls who lives and dies. we have seen alex back from the dead, Ekos brother among many other people and Locke is alive again which means that he is back from the underworld thanks to smokey/Anubis

Ben seemed to know about smokeys mind tricks? seen it before possibly?

Wow, excellent episode! what did Alex tell to Ben right after she grabbed him? I know you planning to kill John's kid?

The 316's aren't just passengers, maybe new attempt by Charles Widmore to get the island? they clearly know more, or maybe they are Dharma.

The glyph showed Smokey appearing before Anubis, is Ben supposed to be Anubis?

Time theories... ok we assume what happened happened right? but now I'm thinking... maybe not so much.

Remember when Daniel went to Hatch Desmond and told him to find his mother? supposedly this is a memory that Desmond should have had already but it popped up in Desmond head out of no where...

I think that while the losties were moving through time, the Island was in the present, so when Daniel told Desmond, the memory got created instantly in Desmond's head, get what I mean? I think what happened happened is just preparation for a twist.

She said "kill John again."

The rules don't apply to Desmond, which is why Daniel was able to pass along that message. For everyone else, whatever happens, happens. They're not going to purposely create paradoxes.

In the bottom row of figures, middle figure looks like this:

Also the third from the left, the one with the pole/spear seems to be:

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Thoth

On the far right, there is Horus' eye (Horace Goodspeed?)

One last thing, when we see the statue intact, from the back I think it looks more like Mafdet than Anubis because of the smaller ears. Mafdet was the goddess of justice and execution...

Just some random thoughts and observations. :p

Some more finale snippets...

- We will be seeing a 3rd Eloise Hawking. This time played by Alice Evans who will between the ages of the young and old Ellie.

Ellie:

ELLIE%20LOST.jpg

Could Hawkings be her? What year were the losties in? 1954?

Last nights was very good. I'm glad ben didn't kill penny.

Ellie:

I think so, ever since that episode aired it seem pretty obvious that it was her.

From Lostpedia:

Ellie is a shortened version of Eloise.

Daniel told her that she looked familiar.

Ellie is the right age, height and nationality to be Eloise.

She became intrigued when Daniel let it slip that they were time travelers.

Ellie and Charles appear to be close in age on the island in 1954, likewise Eloise Hawking and Charles Widmore appear to be the same age in the present time.

Ellie and Eloise Hawking both have blue eyes. They both wear their hair in somewhat similar styles.

The connection between Eloise Hawking and Charles Widmore could be a continuation of the connection between Ellie and Widmore over time since 1954.

At The Lamp Post station with the swinging pendulum that determines the location of the island there is a photo of the island with the text "September 23, 1954 - U.S. Army - OP 264 - Top Secret - Eyes Only." As Eloise is in charge of the station, it's possible she came into possession of the photograph in 1954 when Ellie was involved in the killing of the US soldiers who brought the hydrogen bomb to the island.

Oooh... read this (skip to the Conflict between Horus and Set if you are impatient). It is like Horace is well, Horus, and Richard Alpert is Set. See then Geb as referenced in the section:

It has also been suggested that the myth may reflect historical events. According to the Shabaka Stone, Geb divided Egypt into two halves, giving Upper Egypt (the desert south) to Set and Lower Egypt (the region of the delta in the north) to Horus, in order to end their feud.

If you go to Geb's page, you see some interesting alternate pronunciations of his name that if you stand on one leg and turn your head thus, could maybe sound like "Jacob"...

Ok, I'm getting obsessed.... :p

Wait, so Ellie is Daniel's mom? I was thinking she would be Penny's mom - or is she mom to both?

That's pretty far out there but not completely impossible

    • Windows 11 KB5094126 BSODing, freezing, forcing BitLocker lockout, breaks OneDrive, and more by Sayan Sen Microsoft released Windows 11 KB5094126 and KB5093998 last week as the latest Patch Tuesday updates. Following that the company also published the accompanying dynamic updates under KB5094149, KB5095971, and KB5094156. While Microsoft has so far not acknowledged any major problems with the release, some users online are running into problems. These range from OneDrive and Dropbox access issues, BitLocker recovery lockouts, to blue screens and BSODs. The most common one seems to be happening with HP systems wherein affected users say they hit 0xc0430001 BSOD (blue screen of death) error code after the KB5094126 update. We wonder if this could be related to the recent bug we covered on HP devices wherein the ongoing Secure Boot certificate updates are leading to similar issues. While we are not certain, users affected by this issue likely need to ensure that the boot.stl file is included on the installation media (such as a USB installer or ISO), if the above-mentioned dynamic updates are deployed. If this file is missing, computers may fail to boot from the installation media and could display the error 0xc0430001. This STL file is used by Secure Boot to verify that the boot files are trusted, so it must match the same Windows version and system architecture. To ensure the file is included, Microsoft recommends using the Update WinPE script, which automatically updates the image and handles the required files. Alternatively, you can manually copy the boot.stl file from the Windows\Boot\EFI folder on a Windows device and place it in the matching folder on your installation media before deploying the updated image. Aside from blue screening some users also note their systems have been freezing following the update. This could be happening to Lenovo PCs specifically. In the case of the OneDrive and Dropbox access issues, a user figured out that there could be a conflict with UAC. He explained: "Okay, so I did some digging, and in our environment KB5094126 breaks OneDrive and Dropbox in Explorer. I went through all our GPOs and found out that the combination of disabling UAC and having my user being a local admin breaks OneDrive in Explorer. ... If I enable UAC again, then it works, even with KB5094126 still installed." Hopefully, Microsoft will look into these issues.
