EZC-Boston Posted March 3, 2005 Share Posted March 3, 2005 What was the signif. of the strung-up boar that he passes when he's following the wire? I believe that was the trap that Sayeed got caught in, so he knew he was safe for a little longer, I may be wrong... And I agree, let's chill with the spoilers, there are plenty of other websites where we can find out stuff like that... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
UConn James Posted March 3, 2005 Share Posted March 3, 2005 Can I please request that when you guys post, you DO NOT post any spoilers without first labeling it so, and giving us a chance to not read it? UConn James, you mentioned something about the baby and said "as if that's a big surprise to anyone". Well, in this show, anything and everything is a surprise. Just a friendly request. Thanks. It's like last week someone put in a regular post about Hurley winning the lotto. It did take away from this week's a bit, so please just watch it with the spoilers. I didn't read the rest of this thread, even though I'm interested because I want to avoid spoilers. Thanks. 260208[/snapback] Sorry. Actually, a baby birthing in the season finale is so common an occurance (e.g. Friends, twice; ER, however many seasons it's been on b/c it's every year; need I go on?) it's laughable that anyone might think of it as a spoiler, esp. w/ Claire being 8 mos. preggers and there being not many eps left in the season. It's not hard math. They showed Hurley on the TV getting into a new car. A few positions down in the Telephone Game and voila, you have "Maybe he won the lotto?" That's the risk you run when you read a thread. I'll be conscious about labeling obvious spoilers. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We're talking about a show where there is a polar bear eating people on a tropical island. The fact that you knew about the birth of her baby doesn't make it "obvious". But whatever. . .

A birthing episode is a ratings-grabber. The writers knew this when they were writing it all before the show became the biggest thing since Marlon Brando's jowls. Obviously, I've obviously been obviously listening to Drew "Obvious" Bledsoe for too obviously long an obvious time. There's a few spoliers I've heard and I haven't and won't post them here. The baby and the lotto one weren't that big a deal. Fuggin TV Guide tells you more. Really, it does. (I doubt it's a polar bear that got the pilot.)

Simple enough isn't it? 260304[/snapback] Well, I do understand and concede his point. And everyone should have the opportunity to read and discuss the show w/o big spoilers being revealed. It's a courtesy thing that is crucial. It's just that in mixing the discussion w/ convention, some ideas get tossed around that others mistake as obvious, premeditated spoilers. They're not, and I don't know how sensitive Steve is about not knowing anything before it is actually on the pixels. But if you're talking about a show, at least be prepared to discuss convention.

Everyone reading this thread enjoys Lost, and most don't want spoilers. I didn't yell or scream, I just asked a favor, and others agreed, and James was cool with it. So listen, son. If you want to start a bitching match with me, pick a situation where I'm at least being a dick head. Cause this time I wasn't. And no, I won't "listen up" to you. Got it, kid?

UConn James Posted March 3, 2005 Share Posted March 3, 2005 Well, getting back to brass tacks, how in the heckfire could the bridge support Hurley and not Charlie? That's one that boggles the mind, unless it took a while for a rope to become totally unfrayed. Then, who built the bridge? Looked a lot older than 16 years for Danielle's party to have put up. That combined w/ the existing signal that sidetracked the expedition, this island has likely seen several crashes. Bermuda Triangle, the Pacific version?
