oh god no Jacks never interested me, who remembers when he went to Thailand and got tattoos awful episode.

I don't see how Locke's was any better... he's an Old crippled man always yelling "You can't tell me what I can or can not do" (in the FLASHBACKS/SIDEWAYS/ETC) LOL

on a side related note...cute eyes! :blush:

oh i agree there, to be honest I haven't liked any of the off island stories this season.

A part of me is getting a little frustrated. Nearly half the episodes has been focused on the other timeline's events, with seemingly no direction or point. Ok, we get it, they're living a different life in the other timeline and that paths are destined to cross, but where is it going? I've been as patient as I could for the last five seasons, and they still want to keep hinting or alluding to things without actually coming out with it. It's like they're still teasing us with the carrot in front of us to keep luring us, and I'm afraid we'll end up with half a wasted season because of these other events. I want to see island progression darn it, not to have the curtain reset after they start pulling it back.

My impression with the Flashback/Flashsideways are they just explore LIFE Themes everyday people has to dealt with. for people that care to watch a MORE Sci-Fi version of any other life Drama.

Not really that interesting but apparently what Dogen said to Hurley in Japanese translated to:

"You're lucky that I have to protect you. Otherwise I'd have cut your head off" I laughed :laugh:

I wonder if the numbers imputed in the computer during the begininning of the series have anything to do with the lighthouse dial

4, 8, 15, 16, 23, 42 = 108

4 Being Locke

8 Being Hugo

15 Being Sawyer

16 Being Sayid

23 Being Jack

42 Being Kwon

Am I right in thinking we didn't see Jacob touch Jack? There must be some significance as to why he wasn't touched, or why it wasn't shown in the same episode as the rest.

He touched Jack when he handed him the candy bar that was stuck in the vending machine.

some snippets from jorge garcia

Among the other teases Garcia is willing to share? Hold on to your Oceanic armrests!

1. Hurley will not be the only person with the ability to actually see the dead this season.

2. Major character deaths are on the way. ?We?ve lost people,? reports Garcia, who began shooting episode 15 of 18 this week. ?We have moments of going, ?Oh, man, we?re the only ones left.? I guess now that the show?s ending, [the writers] can pretty much wipe us off the planet.?

There's been a fair few spoilers mentioning a lot of deaths. Guess a few major characters will be going..

    • Limited time Prime Day deal cuts price of this Hisense 65" 4K smart TV in half by Ivan Jenic It’s Amazon Prime Day, and brands are offering great deals to consumers. One of the best deals of the day is definitely this Hisense 65" U7, which is currently $799.99 on Amazon, down from $1,499.99. That's nearly 50% off and $700 saved on this feature-packed 4K TV (purchase link down below). The U7 uses Mini-LED backlighting with up to 3,000 local dimming zones and up to 3,000 nits of peak brightness. That means blacks are truly deep and highlights are punchy enough to hold up even in bright rooms. The screen is covered with a dual-layer anti-reflection coating, which prevents the afternoon overhead lights from washing the picture. For gaming, the native 165Hz refresh rate and VRR 330 support make this one a great TV option for PS5 and Xbox Series X. The TV even features a native game mode, which should help minimize the input lag for a better gaming experience. Audio is handled by a 2.1.2 channel system tuned by Devialet, which is a notable partnership for a TV at this price. Additionally, Dolby Vision IQ, Dolby Atmos, and IMAX Enhanced are all supported. It runs Fire TV with Alexa+ built in. So, if you’re looking for a sharp, large screen to watch the World Cup on, the U7 at this price is definitely an attractive option. Speaking of which, Hisense is the official sponsor of the World Cup, which should mean absolutely nothing to you, and isn’t the reason why you should by this TV. The reason why you should buy it is that it’s “la bella televisione, HDTV-compatible, beautiful,” and available at half the price. Hisense 65" U7 Mini-LED 4K Smart Fire TV - $799.99 | 47% off on Amazon Good to know This Amazon deal is U.S. specific, and not available in other regions unless specified.

    • Re: Capitalism. It's just 1 of dozens of economic models currently-adopted worldwide; most national models separate money from politics thereby limiting the influence wealth carries over the economy (due to limited tentacles wealth politics has over the broader economy). The "American model" of unfettered financial influence should NOT be the variant of pure capitalism adopted worldwide. More regulations formulated within this variant is effectively useless due to the misalignment between regulatory objectives and fundamental influence wealth politics carry over the market. Re: enough money. Without constraining the breadth/depth/scope/scale that any measure of money/wealth can have within a market, there will always inherently be those who have "enough money" and those who do not. Those without "enough money" will always lose -- regardless if a bedroom DJ, indie developer, or million-dollar corporation going against a billion-dollar mega-corporation. The evil is the absence of guardrails against the influence of wealth; not the mere existence of wealth. Re: dragged through the courts. The liberalist nature of litigation does not exclude anyone, anywhere, for any reason for getting dragged through the courts. Rather than formalize remediation pathways for various perceived ills, everything is left up to flawed interpretations... and this is where a litigation-averse community fails to thrive (thus a losing proposition when dragged to courts). Everyone should have more protections and clear remediation strategies! Going to an alternate remediation arbitration is OK so long as the case review and remediation processes are clear and transparent. For corporations, hit them where it hurts: automatic financial penalties. (PS: This is where corporate risk management strategies would do well to behave more ethically.) Overall, failure to truly shake-up the incentive core and regulatory extremities of the economic market will necessarily mean that all other actions are simply applying lipstick on a pig. Change begins from the inside. Is the root cause of the problem that a majority of consumers within a market goes for Option Brand-name versus Option Indie? Or that brand-name is spending foreign money to control domestic markets? Or that money is the objective measure for success across all walks of life? Or that deep pockets dictate the moral and ethical rights/wrongs of entire societies? Regardless of the answer (and there's nothing inherently wrong with being a socialist or communist or whatever label your surroundings deem 'cool' or 'uncool') there's a common thread: If a market truly wants to nurture domestic innovation, then performative finger-wagging will do nothing to that end.
