Lost - The Full Series Thread

[squirtle]

One of the questions in that vid asks what is going on with Jack's Dad. I assume he's another incarnation of ole smokey, seeing as his dead body ended up on the island.

No break for the Olympics. But of course there was never any real risk of it. I think they learned that lesson.

YEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEESSSSS!!!!!!!!

[Riccardo]

Excellent! Lost does not fear the Olympics nor Obama.

Mercenarri, where are those questions from? My policy for spoilers is that anything said/released by the creators isn't a spoiler, and I can read it ... anything else I try and avoid ...

[Anne Summers]

Is there a way to stream the opening episode live? I've waited a year but there is no way I can wait one more day, come feb 2.

Quite a long stream of yes no questions about what happens in the first episode. Just from somebody who knows what happens, I'd imagine.

Wasn't viable last time, I would usually stay up until it was on the torrent sites but 2 hour episode plus the extra encoding time might make me late for college. If I find a stream I'll post it in here.

A reliable spoiler source called DarkUFO made a thread here for people to ask yes and no questions to one of his "contacts". Then he compiled a list of yes and no answers (I haven't read any of it).

I think I am going to save up the episodes and watch them in either one or two blocks.

I did this for the last two series way after they had finished and enjoyed it much more.

[Sponge]

I'd like to do this but how can you avoid all the spoilers?

[Valiant]

Easy, not read any threads concerning Lost.

[hoot]

Reading all the theories on here is half the fun of it.

[Laine]

I thought it was a joke post, regarding the giant warnings in the first post about no spoilers!

[Sponge]

Easy, not read any threads concerning Lost.

What about people talking about it at work, billboard adverts which will inevitably be around near the finale, Sky adverts etc? There's loads of options for spoilers.

[David78]

The biggest issues with spoilers will be the party on the beach thing they're having in Hawaii where they show the premiere a couple of days before it goes out on TV. They haven't done it since season 3, but it's back this year. Just don't go into any Lost thread unless you know spoilers won't be posted (here, I guess, unless someone wants to be a complete dick).

[son_of_helvetica]

Obviously spoilers if you haven't seen Seasons 1-5, but surely you should have if you're here. The song also has a good point to make - how can they answer all those questions in one season?

Easy. They won't. They've said so.

[son_of_helvetica]

Easy. They won't. They've said so.

So there's scope for the inevitable movie and/or TV spin off based on one or more of the characters?

[Valiant]

I'm sure it will be fine. Might watch the two part opener when it is broadcast though.

[squirtle]

I would avoid Sky then at all costs as they are terrible for giving away spoilers in their ad break teasers for this.

[Valiant]

Oh goodness who watches TV anymore? It has adverts and everything breaking up my viewing.

[Podge]

I hope the whole series is just everyone going about their normal business in the altered timeline, with no mention of the island or anything.

But no doubt it'll be everyone just kinda feeling the something is 'off' and they have to put it right somehow, like every time the continuum got mucked up in Star Trek and Guinan just knew it wasn't right.

[Luke]

I would avoid Sky then at all costs as they are terrible for giving away spoilers in their ad break teasers for this.

I'd also avoid Facebook and Twitter, as they're the places people will be spoiling left, right and centre, accidentally, or otherwise.

[Sponge]

Any anyone in the office, on the bus, in the pub...

[Laine]

Tim, what point are you trying to make here? That this should be full of spoilers just in case someone on the bus starts talking about it?

[sofasurfer]

Yeah, can we have one month bans for anyone trying to be funny.

There goes half the forum then.

[squirtle]

Tim, what point are you trying to make here? That this should be full of spoilers just in case someone on the bus starts talking about it?

The point he's trying to make is that trying to avoid finding out anything about episodes that have already aired (as in recording them and watching them in bulk later on) would be quite tricky.

He's not advocating anything about spoilers in here. Just that holding off watching them and not catching any of the big plot reveals accidentally from another source would be hard going.

I know I've said the same thing twice there in different ways, but I just wanted to make sure it was clear.

[Venice Cull]

Er... has anyone just seen what I've just seen?
