Lost - Season 5


Recommended Posts

I don't live in the USA so I am watching episode 14 right now.

I'm trying not to read this thread so I won't see any spoilers, but I had to say....

Jack shoots gas cans and they blow up providing a convenient escape?

I mean, COME ON HERE!!!!!!!!

What a cheat. They could of written that better. The gun play was cool, and to accept time travel, ok.

But a MacGyver move, the exploding fuel cans. That was just sad.

Riiiight, a can full of gas beside a fueling station on a remote Island seems totally absurd. :rolleyes:

Nope, but gasoline/petroleum doesn't explode when shot at, believe it or not.

It's flammable, but not explosive. And having a bullet shot into it won't cause it to ignite.

I'd quote a source, but I can't be arsed... There's plenty out there though.

And mythbusters did 2 eps on it :p

But wouldn't the bullet hitting a metal object cause it to spark before releasing the fuel and the booooom? :)

The Official LOST Audio Podcast - Season Finale

I...really...can't....wait...for....this...season....finale!!!

- There is mythological advancement in the finale

- The finale has a season 1 feel to it along with season 6

- We will get more information about John Locke and the kill Jacob scenario

- Follow the leader was the first part of the finale

- They joke that jacob is a 60ft tall flaming man

- They hint that sawyer, kate and juliet may get back to the island in a special way.. carlton jokes 'the magic box?'

- The compass is in a time loop, they refer to it as what came first, the chicken or the egg?

- The video from comic con with Faraday talking to Chang was non-canon, only the show is canon, plus they could not get to that storyline in the actual show

- Faraday was meant to stay on the island instead of going to ann arbor, in this time he was going to try convince chang about the future, instead they sent him to ann arbor because of show constraints etc

- Hurley is a good guy, so is Kate and Lapidus and Sayid maybe a bad guy

- 60ft Flaming Jacob is a good guy

- Damon says that by the end of the incident and the premier of season 6 we will have enough information to theorise well how the whole series will end, as we will get a substantial piece of information in the incident, but then carlton says at the end of season 6 is when we will have enough information.

This is what you're going to complain about on Lost?

Gas cans exploding?

Everything else you were 100% fine with, but shoot a gas can and it blows up, and 'holy **** the show jumped the shark!'

:rolleyes:

Episode 15

When Jack was swimming underneath that river to reach the other side all I could think of was Tomb Raider or any other game when you had to "hold your breath" so I half-expected a "life bar" on the screen when he was underwater.

:laugh:

Lol, glad to know it wasn't just me :laugh:

does anyone here have a theory as to why john wants jacob killed?

it's interesting to see how much stronger John's connection with the island has gotten every since he returned to the island (probably due to the fact that he was dead and the island "resurrected" him). This leads me to believe that Jacob isn't as connected to the island as i thought because if john's, kind of, receiving hints/orders from the island, jacob can't be part of the island...or can he...i'm not really sure what to think.i can only assume

Yeah, perhaps your right, Jacob is just another man like Locke. Doesn't really explain the moving cabin or his seemingly super powers though. :\

SPOILERS AHEAD

Thanks, love Michael Emerson's interviews :)

Season Finale - New Sneak Peeks

Latest from Kristin

Scott in Ft. Collins, Colo.: What can you tell us about the Lost finale?

As Michael Emerson so impressively put it: The Lost finale will make you eat your soul. Also, stuff blows up, Jacob walks among us and we cry like crazy.

Sara in Rome: The last episode of Lost killed my Skate shipper heart. This should be the moment when you comfort us by telling us everything will be OK. Right? Right?

You guys have got to stop living episode-to-episode (you're going to give yourselves coronaries!) and start thinking long-term. Why? Because long-term, everything will be OK! Promise.

With BleachBit you can free cache, delete cookies, clear Internet history, shred temporary files, delete logs, and discard junk you didn't know was there. Designed for Linux and Windows systems, it wipes clean thousands of applications including Firefox, Microsoft Edge, Google Chrome, Opera, Safari, and more. Beyond simply deleting files, BleachBit includes advanced features such as shredding files to prevent recovery, wiping free disk space to hide traces of files deleted by other applications, and vacuuming Firefox to make it faster. Better than free, BleachBit is open source. BleachBit has many useful features: Delete your private files so completely that "even God can't read them" according to South Carolina Representative Trey Gowdy. Simple operation: read the descriptions, check the boxes you want, click preview, and click delete.

It also adds new cleaners (including a DNS cache cleaner, Claude Code, and Visual Studio Code forks), support for multiple Chrome and Edge profiles, new deep scan options for developer directories like node_modules and venv, and safer, faster file shredding. All Platforms Added cleaners for Claude Code, DNS cache, and many Visual Studio Code forks. Added support for multiple Chrome and Edge profiles. Chrome can now clean downloaded AI models. Deep Scan can optionally remove venv, __pycache__, node_modules, and .angular directories. Deep Scan is faster by skipping directories on the keep list. File shredding is safer, faster, and leaves fewer recoverable traces. Improved handling of cookies, symlinks, Unicode filenames, external processes, and configuration files.

    • DriversCloud 12.1.6 by Razvan Serea With DriversCloud (formerly My-Config.com), you can explore your computer easily, safely and free. The application quickly scans your PC and identifies the hardware and software components. DriversCloud then establishes a list of the different drivers compatible with your OS and hardware. Download the drivers needed for the proper functioning of your computer. To detect your drivers, DriversCloud also displays a detailed summary of your hardware and software configuration, analyzes your BSOD, monitors in real-time your PC voltages and temperatures and lets you share your configuration online. Once the hardware components have been detected, you will be able to obtain with just a few clicks the latest drivers corresponding to the identified hardware. You can record your configuration on the site for free, and can get the corresponding URL to post the configuration to technical forums, e-mail and social networks. You can also download the detection result (the configuration) as a PDF file. To protect the user's privacy and data confidentiality, a 4-level confidentiality system was created that filters the XML marks and gives control to the user. The default level can be modified in the preferences. Using the maximum level will prevent the user from publishing his configuration and generating a corresponding PDF file. In non-connected mode, each XML configuration is stored on the server for one day (for practical reasons). However, you are given the opportunity to manually delete it. Created in 2004, and continually improved, My-Config.com has established itself on the web as a free service to PC users running Windows and Linux operating systems. The service is designed to work with the most common Internet browsers (Edge, Firefox, Chrome, Safari).
