BF2S Forums For those of you who watch LOST

I like the show .. but its so open ended .. they could write whatever they want.

They are on a reality television show???
Just a guess!!

Purgatory.  That's my theory too.

The writers have officially said it isn't a purgatory.

The next most supported theory is that they're a science experiment gone wrong.

My beliefs are that they are a government or privately funded group who had discovered the unique and phenominal magnetic forces of the island and in testing and such, something did go wrong and the current group occupying the island (the others) are those maintaing it's secret, while keeping the testing and use of the island going.

If they are purposefully drawing people to the island to populate their own and to continue to test with, it would make sense.  But as we saw, Desmond failing to input the numbers that caused the electromagnetic eruption that crashed flight 815, could hardly be timed.  But then, the writers are leaving no easy conclusions in that direction.


I got sooo mad that Jack didn't try to take out blondie, or the leader, or that sawyer didn't gun down those people (in last nights episode) when he had the chance.  The slavery and imprisonment on them is worthy of the most aggressive behavior and it pissed me off that they haven't attacked.  But then, that isn't reality..there's predefined plots for everyone.

I'm getting tired of ABC shortening each episode with commercials.  Season 1 and 2 both had 38 minute episodes.  So far, this season, they've been 29 minutes and 32 minutes (last night) and i'm sick of it..need tivo.

True, this is a popular theory.  However, I think with libby dying, the photo descrepencies (hugo with his arm around his imaginary friend), and some other things I read on the abc boards, it was abandoned.

I want to know when the nanobot swarm will be explained.  We all know that I, (hotgreenwassabi) on the abc/lost forums was the first to say that the "monster" was a nanobot swarm.  My criteria was that Michael Chrichton is a good, close personal friend of jj abrahms and he is also a writer for some shows on abc and other networks (ER i think is one).  Well, Michael Chrichton's book "PREY" is about just such nanobots and since the frenzy of viewers called that one right on the money, the writers have simply abandoned the monster or bother explaining it.  I think they got mad that they were discovered and it was embarrasing because of the source of their plagiarism.

It will be interesting to see how they end up explaining it..now that we've seen it in full..and since they can't claim it's nanobots now.

end of season 2 = fail

Is this really debate and serious talk? I though this was the "Bush sucx" area not the "Lost is teh secks" area.

Well, believe it or not I haven't looked around any for any articles on Lost theories.  I don't really want to know what happens before it does, but I also want them to hurry up a bit.  Occassionally I feel like nothing is happening (usually just before the end of each season).

And the monster's going to reappear next week.  A better question is about Locke - he knows but isn't telling?

The show is called LOST because you the viewers are LOST, you don't have a fucking clue what is going on, hence LOST

Lost = boring

Same here.

Regardless its a good show that makes you think. Its the only prime time show I watch.

EDIT: Well Tmo killed that idea.

Well, my theory is that interest in the show will taper off as the storyline becomes more convoluted and audiences no longer want to suspend that much disbelief. Then something else will catch their short attention spans.
