The Lost Lowdown

Is that a baby or a cooing bundle of blankets.

Don't be fooled by the brainwashing movies that I watch I'm still, I'm still Karl from the block In the cages a little, in room 23 a lot No matter where I go, I know where I came from (The Main I-Land!) On the path to the temple is where I got shot I'm still, I'm still Karl from the block No more ou...

Okay, so you fell out of an eight-story building and lived That don't impress me much So you were paralyzed But now you’re walking and such? Now don't get me wrong Yeah I think you're alright But that won't keep the smoke monster Away at night That don't impress me much Okay, so I killed you and now...

David3

i thought it sucked. its so painful to watch them fill in these gaps of useless "mysteries" (or if they are relevant, thats pretty pathetic) this season. i let it slide for a while but once it came back from the "break" these last few have been uninspiring. the dialog and motives are so contrived a...

David3

...he will loose his childhood... Also, as I mentioned in the comments, I didnt really care for Myles' time travel explanation to the viewers. But maybe it's necessary to keep the casual Lost audience interested. When I first saw the scene, it thought they were just going to confuse viewers even mo...

David3

One of the big problems that I had with the time travel explanation that Miles gave to Hurley is that Miles made a statement like "Once Ben turned that wheel, time isn't a straight line for us". Miles shouldn't know anything about the wheel turning. Even if Miles has somehow found out about the whe...

David3

They have definitely mirrored shots before, for example, the shot of Desmond in Widmore's office in "flashes before your eyes". The 'namaste' painting appears to switch sides of the room because of this. I have no idea why they did that, though. On the other hand, production errors have already bee...

David3

Deleted scene?

David3

Here's my take on the time travel discussion you guys had towards the end of the podcast. What ever happened, happened and paradoxes can't go together. The way that LOST is telling the story, paradoxes just aren't possible. Using the "Sayid the Decapitator" example. Sayid has the full ability to cut...

David3

If you consider it a spoiler to know which episode we find out the answer in, then don't read this part.
Spoiler

We find out this week.

I've seen the guest star list for that episode, so I have it narrowed down to one of a few people.

David3

I completely agree with Justin's assessment on Richard.

I have suspected for some time now that they intended to make Richard look younger in that scene from season 3. When everyone decided that he must be ageless, the writers wrote that into the story.

David3

It seems like Darlton can't really decide if they want parallel universes or a completely non-changeable timeline without paradoxes ... That's the exact feeling I got after listening to the podcast. On one hand, you've got Ben handing Sayid a book called A Separate Reality. On the other hand you've...

David3

I don't think this is the case. Although I strongly believe the whatever happened, happened stuff is what's goin on, for the people that think that change is possible, Ben could be dead. Alternate timelines created, paradox galore, if you subscribe to the theory of being able to change things, ther...

David3

Regardless of which theory of time travel you subscribe to, Ben can't be dead. If It Happened, It Always Happened We know Ben's alive through at least 2007, therefore we know he survived the time he was shot as a boy. This makes the meeting of Sayid and Henry Gale in the Swan even weirder. Ben had t...

David3

Based on the rules, Ben can't be dead. He'll survive. If 2007 Ben took off his shirt, he'd likely have a bullet hole scar on his chest.

David3

After rewatching, I agree. I think they are meant to be separate rooms, even if they are filmed in the same room. The two rooms being the same was pretty much the crutch of this theory, so I'll say I don't really believe it anymore. Still doesn't explain the numbers, though.

David3

I went back and checked. The reck room from seasons 3 and 4 is the same room as the Dharma processing room and the same room that Sun, Frank, and Christian are in, in 2007. This could suggest a change, or it could suggest that they used the same room to film both scenes, but don't intend it to be th...

David3

Radzinsky seems like a paranoid man. Jin came in acting all weird, so Radzinsky was very suspicious and/or curious what he was up to. I've also heard a theory that Radzinsky is a mole for the hostiles. If that's the case, he may have been trying to save the life of one of his people. Once he realize...

David3

I highly doubt that this is the case because if it is true it opens a whole new can of worms. If Danielle did not record the message her story was probably completely different. If Dharma was alive in 2004 then the events that happened to the losties would have taken place differently. Nah, it is j...

David3

Thanks.

David3

We know that they are in 2007 based on the "thirty years earlier" screen when they cut to 1977. We know that the present day is 2007 because Jack told Sawyer it had been three years since the helicopter. The helicopter scene happened at the end of 2004. It's not just the torn up barracks to gets to ...

David3

This was the worst episode of the season. Just too much setup, not enough stuff happening. I don't mind setup episodes if they are setting up something really epic, like the episodes before the finale usually are, but this one was just moving chess pieces around for the hour. Next week will probabl...

David3

Another thought: If there is in fact changes now, maybe they were caused by Jack, Kate, Hurley, and Sayid being sent back to 1977. Maybe since they time traveled from off the island, the rules are different? I don't think I believe this, but it's an alternative to Desmond changing things.

David3

Throughout this season we've been shown that everything we know in the present (2004) has already taken into account actions from their time travel to the past. In other words, they can't change anything. Well, that seems to have taken a hit in "Namaste." It seems that someone eventually found a way...

David3

I thought it was funny the way Pierre Chang popped up in the episode. Jack was just being told that he's now in 1977, he's joining the Dharma Initiative, and now he's meeting the man he saw in the orientation video.

David3

It almost seems like the Swan was going to be the crown jewel of the stations, or at least Radzinsky's baby. I think the first incident led to reconfiguring the Swan for a different purpose.

David3

With the way he was acting, I definitely think Kelvin killed him.

David3

who would have to kill them for one of them to die. sorry still a bit confused. Could young Ben kill Sawyer (in the 70's)? [because Sawyer exists in 2004] Yes, Ben could kill Sawyer, but Sawyer can't kill Ben. The 1977 Ben is younger than the 2004 Ben. Therefore we know that he can't be killed beca...

David3

I was hoping the podcast was going to be a few seconds longer. I was anticipating a cold dropoff or the dodo dodo dodo dodo do...this podcast will be broken down RIGHT NOW.

David3

They themselves can die because even though they exist in 2004, that the past for them. What they can't do is kill a younger version of someone we know exists in 2004. In other words, they can't go track down kid Ben and kill him. Sawyer couldn't have pulled out a gun and killed Alpert. They couldn'...

David3

I think it's now safe to say where this season is headed.

David3

also they said they would not finish Libbys story and that disappointed me. I want to know why she was in a mental hospital. That makes the "Dave" cliffhanger the worst cliffhanger ever. It annoys me how Team Darlton always gets bent out of shape if anyone asks about Libby. Hey guys, you're the one...

David3

According to TV Guide, the identity of the baby is one of the following four people... Ethan Desmond Jacob Faraday Based on the fact that whoever it is should only be 27 in 2004, means that none of them make sense to me. The actors that play Ethan, Desmond, and Faraday are all about 10 years too old...

David3

Can we hear a message from Future Claude?

David3

I wonder what 2 people they are talking about?

Jacob?
Radzinsky?

David3

I've never heard the word scooplet before, but I don't like it.

Has she reinvented herself again?

David3

They'll probably eventually get busted and have to explain what they know to Pierre Chang. Why does Chang want to reinsitute the Dharma Intiative in the future and why does he think they can change the past. I get the feeling that the "iniquely special" Desmond Hume is going to find some way to chan...

David3

I found this on DocArtz website. They think Chang says "LeFleur" towards the very end of this video. What do you think? I think he says LeFleur but it is hard to be sure. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=AdWLYVRiin8&eurl=http://www.docarzt.com/lost/lost-easter-eggs/the-lafleurcomic-con-08-connection/...

Once Lost ends next year they'll drop to 23 members ($2760/year for those calculating at home).

Lots of funny parts this week. Here's what I have so far: Justin: fuckin' crazy, I don't know what they're doin'. I shit my pants like 8 times Claude: Well that's one of the numbers. Justin: Yeah. Claude: Uh, I only did 4. I feel sorry for the person that did 42. Justin: Ouch. Claude: Yeah, ouch ind...

David3

Listening to the podcast and I'm at the part where Claude and Justin are talking about Horace building Jacob's cabin. Back in "Cabin Fever," Horace says, "Oh, building a place--a little getaway for me and the missus. No, I mean, sometimes you need a break from the D.I., y'know? The DHARMA Initiative...

David3

You know, I really thought the Three Years Later/Three Years Ago thing was going to get old, but I think they did it pretty well and it added to the suspense. I just thought it was a bit weird that they showed us Juliet in a Three Years Later scene and then they put in the "emotional" scene with Sa...

David3

The most important question...do the earplugs have a Dharma logo on them?

David3

I think the way Lost's time travel works is that what we see happen is the way that it always happens. Their actions aren't changing the past, their actions are created the only past that ever existed. In othet words, Sawyer and Juliet always saved Amy. She always had the baby. Whether or not the ba...

David3

I heard an interview with the actress that plays Amy. She said she knows who the baby is, but isn't allowed to say. So, apparently this is supposed to be a thing. As I said before the person should only be 27 in 2004...unless of course the person has been doing a bit of time traveling, in that case ...

David3

I think the sound is probably at a pitch that is not audible to humans (but somehow still has an effect), which makes the ear plugs all the more ridiculous. What I mean is that when she walked through, there was barely a sound, but when everyone else walked through, we hear a loud sonic sound. Mayb...

David3

Alpert keeps getting visits from the Losties/Freighters giving him bits and pieces of information. I'm really starting to get the feeling that the only reason Alpert knew that Locke had to leave the island and bring the O6 back was because he knows thats what happened. I'm thinking he wasn't all kno...

David3

I have no idea what is supposed to be present day, so I say it's 2008. If Sawyer, Juliet, Dan, Miles, Jin are no longer flashing through time, then where are they now in 2008. I guess we can through Jack, Kate, and Hurley in on this too. Obviously, there's not really anything to go on, but here are ...

David3

...or uses earplugs... I really hated that part. I agree. I found the look on her face extremely annoying. It's annoying that they build this huge contraption that circles the barracks and all you need is a tree limb, ear plugs, or a hostile to get through it. Wouldn't it have still made the noise?...
