QUOTE (BigSqwert @ Feb 3, 2010 -> 11:09 AM) It wasn't just that. Why did the Dharma van get transported magically back to 2007? To conveniently help with the wreckage on top of Juliette? Everything they had with them during the time flashes last season stayed with them, like the zodiac so that isn't some random new thing that the writers just made up to conveniently save Juliet.

QUOTE (Steve9347 @ Feb 3, 2010 -> 11:13 AM) I personally think we're seeing the result of what group A (2007) is going to do in this season to net the result we are seeing with group B (2004). So, for the final episode, Group A will pull off whatever is needed to sink the island and truly make it as if nothing happened, while the show will wrap up nicely having given us some "post Lost" storyline with Group B. It's all a linear story, just with A and B being shown simultaneously even though A happens before B even though it really happens after it. Haha. I do think I'm right though. I think you're right too.

QUOTE (Jenksismyb**** @ Feb 3, 2010 -> 10:41 AM) Solid start. A couple of "oh s***!" moments, more "wtf?" moments, some overacting/underacting.....typical Lost for me. Bigswert I think you're just nitpicking if all you can complain about is some random one liner. But I DO agree that the music (that bum....bum da-na-na-naaaa, bum da-na-na-naaaa music) is used too much. It was awesome when played with just strings (season 3 finale) but now he/they tried to keep it with all sorts of different variations. I don't think it works that well. My only complaint was the Juliette/Sawyer/Jack stuff. First, the guy that plays Sawyer isn't a good enough actor to pull off all that emotion. So it became kinda unbelievable for me. But why even bring Juliette back? To give her a send off? Seemed like a bunch of wasted time to me. They kept me going enough to think that maybe they'd also take her to the Temple with Sayid, and maybe save her, but nope, pretty much "buried" that idea (athankyou). I'm sure she'll pop up later as a ghost or whatever, but I thought a lot of that was unnecessary (similarly, I didn't care for them playing the last 2-3 minutes of season 5 about 4 times in 10 minutes - once in the recap show, 2-3 times in the regular show. We know what happened, no need to show it a million times.) The whole Juliet thing happened because she had to tell Sawyer "it worked." But I agree it took them way to long to pull her out and stuff for her to just die. They could of rescued her much faster and had Miles get that line from her faster. Was I the only one who really didn't care about the Losties too much? I found myself wanting to just see more scene from the statue with Flocke, Ben, and Richard.

QUOTE (BigSqwert @ Feb 3, 2010 -> 09:35 AM) I'm arguing to the wrong people. You guys probably can't find a single thing to fault in this series. *shakes head* Your upset about a single line. Talk about nit-picky. I'm not going to rate an episode lower or a series lower because of one line, that really isn't that out of place.

QUOTE (nitetrain8601 @ Feb 3, 2010 -> 01:38 AM) Came in here to post this. That's why they said Sayid was most important. Jakob took his body much like the smoke monster took Locke's Yes, and as far as I can remember no one in the history of the show just revived(we don't know what happened with Christian though). So Sayid is not Sayid, and Jacob is the only thing I can think he would be.

Sayid = Jacob. Which is why he told Hurley to take Sayid to the temple. Clearly the water was not what healed Sayid, something else brought him back to life.

I really like how the promo ends with "The time for questions is over" -Narrotor followed by "I promise I'll tell you everything" -John Locke.

QUOTE (Reddy @ Feb 2, 2010 -> 09:37 AM) oh, and this is definitely video from next season... so... don't watch it if ya don't wanna see it. Ya I'm avoiding all the other clips. The first five minutes was good enough for me, I don't want to see stuff that happens after that out of order. Here is the one minute trailer that people were talking about earlier. The entire thing is season 6 footage, so don't watch if you don't want to be spoiled at all. I'd recommend watching it though as it's one of their best promos ever.

Thorntan and Putz were not taken because regular realivers are useless in fantasy.

QUOTE (Brian @ Feb 1, 2010 -> 10:36 AM) Look below at my timer!!! It's almost HERE!!! f***, I missed seeing your timer at 108 by 16 minutes. That would have been cool, and freaky.

Ya, guys sorry I said U of I would be the favorite vs ISU multiple times. This entire thread I have been saying over and over and over again that ISU would not be the favorite, that U of I would be the favorite and win 75% of the time. I'm really sorry you guys can't take your U of I blinders off though. I just pointed out a true statistic that we beat Utah at their place with ease, and beat Bradley at home with ease. Illinois could not beat either on a neutral court, let alone do it with ease. But since you guys can not stomach not being the best team in the state I am done with this thread, good luck I'm just an ISU homer who doesn't know s***. Have fun in the National Championship Illinois it is much deserved and clearly you are hands down the best team in the nation QUOTE (WHarris1 @ Jan 30, 2010 -> 08:40 PM) If we are gonna make retarded arguments based upon single games and matchups then where are ISU's wins the caliber of Clemson and Vanderbilt? Oh right I forgot, they don't exist. I could give a s*** about the stupid comparison but c'mon. Give me 1 reason why Clemson is a quality win looking at their schedule their only real win is vs UNC, who isn't really that great this year. Congrats on your Vanderbilt win though, that makes you head an shoulders above ISU. Must be nice having teams worth a s*** allowing you to schedule them. You've lost to Bradley, Utah, Georgia. When you can give me a solid reason why your "clearly a superior team to ISU," I'll be willing to listen.

QUOTE (Brian @ Jan 30, 2010 -> 11:08 AM) Season 6 coming on DVD August 27th. Cool we won't have to wait til December like previous years. I wonder how much the boxset of the entire series is going to cost. I'm planning on buying that since I didn't buy the seasons separately.

QUOTE (GoodAsGould @ Jan 30, 2010 -> 08:10 PM) Nobody said ISU has no hope in beating U of I, you have just over-exagerated the issue the entire time and have been annoying as hell doing so, even more so than Jimbo. Fact of the matter is the Illini are clearly the superior team, obviously in a given game anything can happen but if they went headsup vs ISU more likely than not U of I wins. End of issue. Jordan4life specifically said 1%, and a couple others agreed. I'm not looking back to get names, but it happened. The real fact of the matter is U of I has done nothing to show me they are "clearly the superior team." I've said over and over again that U of I would be the favorite but for some reason everyone here thinks I have ISU blinders on and think they would win 85% of the time. After being told U of I is clearly the superior team from people like you, its nice when something happens that makes U of I look less superior. So I am going to post it.

QUOTE (bigruss22 @ Jan 30, 2010 -> 08:04 PM) The Illini have no excuse for losing those games. Pretty much the same as ISU has no real excuse for losing to teams like Niagra. Yes, and if U of I beat Niagara then I'd expect that same thing from you. If I don't have the right to bring up that stat after being told my school has no hope of beating U of I then something is wrong.

QUOTE (Brian @ Jan 30, 2010 -> 07:55 PM) Nobody has said anything about Illinois/ISU in weeks and you bring it up. Prepare to get flamed and probably rightfully so. I'm just making sure they know that their 1% chance of losing to us is a little off. Really don't care if I get flamed. Talking trash is what make sports fun so if they can't handle the heat get out of the kitchen.

ISU 66 Bradley 47. That makes ISU 2-0 vs Utah and Bradley and the Illini are 0-2 vs those same schools.

War on 74 today. Bradley @ ISU. With the tournament out of reach unless a miracle happens in St. Louis this is about all I have left to look forward to.

QUOTE (Brian @ Jan 29, 2010 -> 03:18 PM) The first 2 minutes of the premiere were leaked online. I admit it, I watched. Figured it is only a couple more days away anyway, wouldnt kill me...well, now I am even more eager for Tuesday, if that was possible. Way to totally miss my post 1 page back. Just more reasons why ISU > SIU .

QUOTE (Jenks Heat @ Jan 29, 2010 -> 12:50 PM) That was what I thought at first but then when I went back and was watching season 4 and Alpert tells Locke that he has to die, it got me thinking. Also the aging thing gets me as well. Alpert told Locke that he had to die because the not real locke lead Alpert to the real locke and told him to say that.

QUOTE (Jenks Heat @ Jan 29, 2010 -> 12:35 PM) The way I thought it went down was the MIB figured out a loophole and that he is not actually Locke but somehow got Locke to appear ala Christian Sheppard in order to get Ben to kill Locke with Richard setting up and manipulating Ben all along in order to get him to want to kill Jacob. Ben has never communicated with Jacob thus Jacob could not actually banish Ben which I am thinking was done by Richard. You also noticed that Richard always wears the fancy dark clothes. I don't know watching the end of season 5 it seems almost obvious that Locke was the MIB. Just the way Jacob and Locke were talking. Richard could still be friends with the MIB though.

QUOTE (Reddy @ Jan 29, 2010 -> 12:21 PM) Locke is the man in black. Jacob says "you've found your loophole" and Locke says "yes I have". Yes, and the MIB told jacob in the begining of the incident that one day he'd find his loophole.

QUOTE (Jenks Heat @ Jan 29, 2010 -> 12:13 PM) Just watched Jughead again. Gotta tell ya the badass young Eloise Hawking really does it for me. I really want to know how the Others came about as I forgot hawking and Widmore were others. I also think Richard Alpert is the man in black. Here is why I think this. He tells John he has to die to get off the island yet is not at all surprised about Locke's trek to kill Jacob. Richard is the only person who has seen Jacob and Richard and Jacob are the onyl two people who never age. Just some random thoughts from watching. Richard told locke that, because whatever Locke was at the end told Richard to tell Locke he had to die. I forgot what episode it was.

QUOTE (Athomeboy_2000 @ Jan 29, 2010 -> 12:02 PM) soooooooooo tempting, but I just CANT watch it. I'm not as patient as you.

QUOTE (kev211 @ Jan 29, 2010 -> 12:01 PM) ABC's contest where so many people win a flash drive with the first 5 minutes of season 6 of lost on it got sent today. Anyway the clip leaked. http://spoilerslost.blogspot.com/2010/01/l...l#axzz0e1dDtmPh Click that only if you want to see the first 5 minutes of season 6. I suggest anyone who wants to talk about it in this thread uses spoiler tags.
