Finally an awesome episode

it seems to me that it could easily not literally be heaven/hell purgatory etc. they planted the idea there in a big way, but it hardly seemed concreted in fact.

anyway that was the first episode of lost in a very, very long time that didnt feel like it was acted out by retarded high school children. good stuff. if they keep that up till the end this could very well be majorly redeemed.

was this episode directed by someone different or something? there's gotta be some way to explain why some episodes seem way higher quality than others

I was thinking the same thing. Even the editing seemed tighter

i think the reason for the different feel was that this episode had a purpose in explaining things, instead of meandering around and not moving forward at all.

uhh yeh... lost has used around 25 different directors(from my drunkly tired estimation of sight).. lots of different writers too... explains the inconsistency

Ab Aeterno Season 6 Episode 9

Melinda Hsu Taylor and Greggory Nations

Tucker Gates

Wow epic episode, imagine if they where all like this.

yea, there was no tip-toeing around. of the losties, they only really showed hurley. that was it. the story was about richard and it focused on him the whole time. non-stop. totally awesome. hopefully they can keep it up.

as far as directors, i remember a few years ago, darren aronofsky was supposed to guest direct an episode. that would have been killer. the reason i was reminded of that was richard's story had very very heavy Fountain-like overtones.

i don't want to be debbie downer but despite being better than usual it was still shit. and made no sense whatsoever.

so jacob brings people to the island to prove to this other guy that people are not bad?

ok....

and the island is a cork.

ok....

and richard turns up and jacobs like "hey man you want a job?"

and i'm like

seriously? 6 seasons and now this?

and the smoke monsters plan to get richard to kill jacob, did that seem a bit retarded. pretend to be his wife then go smokey on his wife and then tell richard that you are smokey.... huh ok i'll go kill the devil if this smokething says so

ok....

what else is on in the lost timeslot? cougar town?

basically the cork killed laura palmer

This should have been the first episode of the season. It redeemed the borefest of this entire season.

as long as they keep it up.

next episode is a jin/sun episode probably.

I love how we never got to see Magnus Hanzo's face, the captain of the Black Rock...got fucking Smoked Out yo!

Richard went through hell in this episode....

Intense...

really dig it....

cliched or not, this is what we get....

they said the show was going to be a bit like the Stand by King, they were not lying about this....

so in the Flash Sideways, island is uncorked? Black smoke gonna kill everybody? mmmmmmm I hope so....

lets face it all tv shows go too long and end up sucking. can we think of any perfect tv show? if anyone says bsg they get insta B7.

somethgn about being so open ended maybe. with a movie you shoot 3 hours worth and edit it down. its tight. with tv you have 22 hours a season.

six feet under.

The Wire. Which lost a little believability in the last season, but was still about three million times better than Lost ever was. But also, it wasn't 22 episodes a season. I've never seen a truly tight 22-episode-season show. 10-13 can definitely work, though.

See what happens when you have a really different story and minimal cast members? An excellent episode. I've gotta hand it to Nestor Carbonell, I think he acted brilliantly, it sucks that he plays such a minor role otherwise.

It was great seeing the original man in black again, he looks fucking intense.

Also, that was the only time I've ever liked Hurley.

huge lost fan and must say last episode was easily the best of the series!

lost =

I don't think anyone is disagreeing with you that it's great fun to watch.

ok, ill have to admit, after about 23 episodes of shit, this wasnt bad.

i was in it for the ending regardless, but this renewed my interest at least.

though jacob is obviously supposed to represent Jesus Christ, I still get the feeling something crazy as shit will happen.
