Lost discussion. Comments below.
I have mixed feelings now about Jack dying. I think I'd prefer that if he were to die, to have that be next season. It makes sense to me, the death of Jenny Callendar in "Buffy" and kind of why that needed to happen when it did.
I have a feeling that Locke will not be with us long. It's almost like he's this miracle person who is there to inspire belief and when rumblings of this occur, he'll be offed. He is the only character where I'm getting strong "his time is short" vibe. However, weaker vibes are coming from Claire and Charlie.
Lovely, beathen. Thanks!

Re: #4
as long as it's not Charlie or Hurley, I'm ok.
Re: #5
"The comic is actually a Spanish translation of "Green Lanter/Flash: Faster Friends" Part 1, which chronicles the superheroes' attack on an alien that turns out to be peaceful. Say Abrams, "We definitely chose that story for a reason.""
I think this indicates that the “monster” is not a bad thing. I had mentioned this early on as perhaps part of why Locke says he didn't see the monster. I think he did see it, and it helped him.
I'm thinking the title of the show was carefully considered in its conception and it's not as one-dimensional as it appears. So, I'm getting the purgatory vibe.
Not a big Hurley fan so far. If I were on a deserted island I'd not have much patience with well-meaning and incompetent people.

The monster may be the peaceful thing, but the theme of the comic may relate to what is happening to the survivors in terms of what is weird or scary is not malevolent. However, the French woman's pleas for help are still in the back of my mind.

I think what happened to the pilot also points to the monster being evil, unless you assume his death was some kind of wish fulfillment, along the lines of Jack, Charlie or Kate thinking "I wish he hadn't be alive to tell us we were so off course."

I can't help but think that the people still haven't
a power source for a transmittion that has been playing for 16 years. That either got to be one big battery or the previous inhabitants mangaed to set up some kind of water operated generator OR the power is coming from the island/monster itself

Am I right in remembering that the whitefont policy for this thread was tbd? Because I'd really strongly prefer no whitefont for spoilers -- I realize that this may just be my issue, but my very strong tendency is to skip over whitefonted anything when I'm reading. It looks just like Natter in here, and one of the reasons I got into spoilers in the first place was to have a place where I didn't have to fret about what I might let slip outside the whitefont. Ptui.
Count me amongst those that would rather have the spoiler thread be all out in the open, with no whitefont at all.
