LOST Break Thread

edited September 2009 in Social Entropy++
Well, LOST has broken its summer silence. A lot of bits and pieces of news have come out from Comic-Con, which is traditional.

The most substantive is the monthly LOST web series "Mysteries of the Universe: The Dharma Initiative"
Watch it here: http://abc.go.com/primetime/lost/index?pn=lostmysteries&v2

It's sort of a campy science/unsolved mystery 80s TV program. Not much concrete info yet but it seems like some will be coming in future episodes.

Here's the whole comic-con panel on youtube, looks like 4, 10 minute videos (I haven't watched it yet)
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ruNjVeEBA_I

News tidbits: Boone will be back some, as will Juliet and Faraday
*Viewers will get significant Richard Alpert backstory in Season 6. It may or may not be tied to Black Rock.

*The producers promised a season that will tonally resemble Season 1: much jungle adventure, emotional resonance, and a sense of discovery. When asked if Season 6 would offer flashbacks to characters' pasts, Cuse said that Season 6 would take a different approach to flashbacks, but did not elaborate

I think it would be cool to do some kind of LOST book club or something. What would be good to do in that way?

    As much as I have enjoyed the past 2 seasons of increasingly dense mythology and metaphysics, season 1 of LOST was some of the most compelling television I've ever watched. It remains to be seen how exactly it will echo season 1 though.

    I guess the company that recorded the panel had to cut out the videos shown during the panel. They had a link to some shakycam of one of all "fan stuff"

    The beginning of it is video of people's LOST finale parties, and the end has Jack+Sawyer footage edited to give it a Brokeback Mountain vibe, which is great.

    See these suggest that Faradays crazy plan had some sort of affect.

    But the writers also said it would be a huge tease to just hit a reset button.

    Hmmmmm.

    Also someone needs to find the "audition tape" of Emmerson for the role of Hurley and the Nestor freak out thing.

    Edit: nvm found them

    Also check out the final season poster

    http://www.sl-lost.com/2009/07/26/season-6-promo-image-shown-at-comic-con/

    every single main cast member is on it. Locke is dead center and has his back turned to the camera while everyone else is straight on.

    Thanks for those youtube and in memorium videos guys, they were the ones I couldn't find.

    I'm currently catching my friend up on the Lost that he has missed from Season 3 on from him being stubborn so that's a great opportunity to watch it again.

    but I think they're going to be in the jungle, discovering things that resonate emotionally

    I bought a Swan shirt right after the season 5 finale.

    The Kate and Hurley videos have me really interested in where we're going with this.

    And the Oceanic Airlines commercial:

    http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QfoqYmGS6Xw

    Since 1979, 30 years with a perfect safety record (2009), yet in the series everyone knew about 815, so yeah...815 has apparently now never crashed.

    Also the Kate video since no one seems to have posted it yet: This one perhaps intrigues me the most seeing as it takes place far before the original date of 815's flight.

    Thats what I chalked it up to.

    It wasn't human, therefore the number of toes is a moot point
