Now that I think about it, when we saw the Others in that suburban style village, it sure looked like the plane crashed on the same island. Weren't there even comments like "if you run, you can infiltrate them"?
Lost 2: Tied to a Tree in a Jungle of Mystery
[NAFDA] This is where we talk about the show! Anything that's aired in the US (including promos) is fair game. No spoilers though -- if you post one by accident, an admin will delete it.
"if you run...to the boat"
it definitely seemed like the two sections of the plane landed on either side of them, not both off in the same direction.
Yes -- two sides of the same island.
I'm sure, that if the heat didn't overcome the polar bear it could swim to the other island. Polar bears are very aquatic.
And actually, there are sections of the Pacific that have very cold currents. There's a reason why penguins live in the Galapagos.
I'm as frustrated as anyone here with the lack of WTFness with the "revelations" and all. However, I have to say -- there was very nice direction tonight in the scenes and acting, the editing and plot structure. Even if it's a ride to nowhere, individual episodes can still be well-made.
...but for plot/logic junkies like me, it's a very frustrating ride.
So, does Desmond have precognition -- or is he visiting from the future.
His real name is Hiro Nakamura !
My thing with the island - how could the Losties have not seen a WHOLE OTHER BIG HONKING ISLAND next to theirs (maybe Dracula's around)? Especially Sun, Jin and Sayid, who sailed around their own island? Do the Others have a cloaking device? (That would explain a lot, atually)
Well, cloaking devices now exist -- so TOTALLY possible.
It's like they're trying to make us give up in disgust.
I watched. I didn't care enough to take my laptop out of the case to post.
I watched because I like the people and I like the setting. I'd like to have more reasons to watch, but I don't.
For instance, why was the revelation about Sawyer's daughter important last night? To get to that, we missed out on any scenes with Sayid and Jin and Sun. I mean, if Ben and the others know about Clementine, surely they could have written that bit in when the time came (as in, if the Others are planning on using the knowledge somehow).
I think the cast has gotten too big for them to juggle all the plot points, and relying on the flashbacks to provide characterization is interrupting the flow of the present-day plot. You know. What there is of it.
