Date: August 15th, 2018 2:52 AM Author: appetizing theatre when it first aired, I remember calling it in the middle of season 1 that the island was basically purgatory or whatever and they were all dead already, trying to work out their personal demons before "moving on". it wasn't that difficult to see. Still enjoyed it overall, and so far, it's pretty fresh not having seen it for like 10 years. also the flashbacks/character development were always stronger than the overall plotline anyway kinda weird that none of the actors have done anything of note since, though |

time is real, sadly. |

Date: August 15th, 2018 3:09 AM Author: appetizing theatre yeah I just mean that it goes by so FUCKING FAST. like one minute you're watching Lost live and then you blink and whoops, now you're in your 30s, good luck with that (http://www.autoadmit.com/thread.php?thread_id=4052360&forum_id=2#36619415) |

Date: August 17th, 2018 1:22 PM Author: Ocher Duck-like Stag Film Azn It wasn’t purgatory until they blew up the island. All the stuff in the first few seasons actually happened (http://www.autoadmit.com/thread.php?thread_id=4052360&forum_id=2#36633253) |
|
Date: August 17th, 2018 1:24 PM Author: appetizing theatre I don't think that's correct, but again, it's been forever since I watched all of it already in season 1, there are tons of allusions to it, like the Korean woman straight up says at one point "do you think we're being punished for our pasts?" you think the kooky "smoke monster" was real? lol |

Date: August 17th, 2018 1:46 PM Author: Ocher Duck-like Stag Film Azn No. This is completely wrong. The purgatory was the flash forward scenes in the last season. (http://www.autoadmit.com/thread.php?thread_id=4052360&forum_id=2#36633423) |

Date: August 17th, 2018 1:53 PM Author: appetizing theatre hmmm ok will report back when I rewatch enough of it just seems like wayyy too much supernatural stuff (smoke monster, polar bears from Walt's imagination, magic numbers, etc. etc.) also a plane crash in which the entire tail section rips off and somehow 50 fucking people survive? zero chance |
Date: August 15th, 2018 2:25 AM Author: Passionate Ultramarine Psychic Pretty much the same story as the sixth sense (http://www.autoadmit.com/thread.php?thread_id=4052360&forum_id=2#36619364) |

Date: August 17th, 2018 1:19 PM Author: appetizing theatre couple observations through Season 1: - biggest thing that jumps out at me upon rewatch is how fucking easily they all seem to make fire. There are large bonfires constantly, and whenever they go out at night, they have these super effective torches fueled by god knows what. Seems weird that all these random passengers would know how to make fire from scratch at a moment's notice. - LOL at the title sequence, literally looks like a middle schooler played around in iMovie, just chose a font and made the word twist around |

Date: August 17th, 2018 1:25 PM Author: Khaki hell masturbator watching it a 2nd time was a massive let-down for me. nowhere near as exciting as the first run. (http://www.autoadmit.com/thread.php?thread_id=4052360&forum_id=2#36633269) |
|
Date: August 17th, 2018 1:27 PM Author: appetizing theatre yeah it's kinda lame knowing all the major plot points, but as I said above, the character backstories are more fascinating to me. Some of the best character development of all time, I think. They devote tons of time to it every episode, and they're all interesting in their own way Locke's, for example, is just devastating |
|
Date: August 17th, 2018 1:39 PM Author: Saffron Misunderstood Stage Look, developing a mystery with no interesting solution is just dumb. That's what we have with Lost. It is totally obvious that they were stringing us along and at the end they were like "oh fuck, we have to wrap this up. Uh, it is MAGIC... That's why stuff happens. And, like, it's purgatory."
Anyone who ends a story like that with "it was magic", "it was a dream", etc. needs to be publicly flogged. |

Date: August 17th, 2018 1:42 PM Author: appetizing theatre that's the problem with starting a series with no clear end in sight from the beginning. I feel like limited series are the way of the future, or perhaps even hour-long single episodes like Black Mirror. Prestige TV, as opposed to network TV (which is only really watched now by braindead boomers), seems to be catching onto this. Just make it like a long movie.

Date: August 17th, 2018 1:45 PM Author: Saffron Misunderstood Stage Ok, but even then don't do a mystery that ends with "it was a dream" or "it was magic". That's just cheap and dumb. (http://www.autoadmit.com/thread.php?thread_id=4052360&forum_id=2#36633418) |

Date: August 17th, 2018 1:51 PM Author: appetizing theatre The Leftovers had the same problem, would've actually been more interesting if they had just left unanswered questions at the end of Season 1 and called it a day, but they tried to do too many things in the next two (http://www.autoadmit.com/thread.php?thread_id=4052360&forum_id=2#36633449) |

I still watch episodes here & there, & think they hold up well.
But the last season & the ending were quite a let down. |
