Ohhh that's fucked up! That's fucked up.

I'm 99.999% sure that's what they were suggesting.

I'm guessing he's an 815 crash fatality.

That's awesome! I love it! This is where LOST has us now. And, yeah, Bryan, there's no telling if Jin is dead at the moment Sun sits by his tombstone or not. I'm pretty darn sure there are still people from 815 on the island at the moment Jack has his talk with Kate about how they never should have left...

BUT please for God's sake, don't ever combine FF and FB in the same episode just to dupe the audience. I am officially angry at the LOST team right now. I don't mind it when they startle us with a cool reveal, but c'mon!

Wait, Chris! I'm not so sure it was a cheap trick, I'm only sure it was a trick. It just might not be so cheap in the long run if what they were attempting to do was bring the characters' skewed time perception closer to home for the audience. Like they were trying to make us perceive time all screwy so we can really get in the mindspace of people stranded in a time warp.
I feel pretty sure they're not going to make a habit of FF/FB combos.

I'll add a cherry to the top of your milkshake if Micheal's not in the coffin and the above is correct. Or just a cherry if the above "time warp" share-time for the audience is correct. If you get neither correct then I'll let you have a sip of my milkshake.

I am so way getting a coffin, because Michael is not in that milkshake!

Okay, here's something that's been making my head spin.

Does the rest of the world know about the Dharma Initiative? If so, to what extent? If not, is the work (or former work considering...) of DI that much of a well-kept secret?

Also, are the hostiles who helped kill the original DI people who broke free from DI, or have they been there longer than the DI had been?

1. The rest of the world does not know about the Dharma Initiative, not at all. It was a secret and privately funded experiment in the middle of the Atlantic Ocean. Only, like, conspiracy buffs and a few random corporate watchdog groups are likely to have heard of the DI, but after some mysterious tragic event occurred years ago, the Hanso Foundation... well, I was about to go supergeek for a minute, but I'm trailing off my point. You get the idea: people don't know about the DI.

2. We still don't have the data to determine who the hostiles are, nor how long they've been on the island (I'll say right now, it'll get really interesting when they start to give up some more information about the hostiles). Most likely, they inhabited the island many years before the DI began. And they probably weren't hostile at all before they were protecting their island, as that is surely an epithet ascribed to them by a group of people (DI) who believe the island's original inhabitants are only obstructions to their mission.

I don't buy that the flashback/flash forward device served some bigger purpose in the narrative. It was strictly there to manipulate the viewer. That is why I do not like it. I think LOST has enough going on for it and its characters that it doesn't need to manipulate us. It comes off as cheap.

Well that's your opinion, Asaf. Not necessarily a fact!

I think it's time for the boys

of LOST to start sticking up for themselves
I mean, Bernard does WHATEVER Rose tells him to
Jin just follows Sun around WHEREVER
Kate's silky ways is enough to send Sawyer into spirals WHOEVER that is
Aaron is always with Claire - boooooring
Ben is always and obvious n love with the blonde girl Juliet (what, does he think he is romeo obvious he is not utherwise he would have gotten her already)*

Boys - and i do mean boys not men (End of the Road) - time to shape up or get off my island (and I don't mean in a good way like part of the Oceanic 6)
!

whats up with the writers neway they hate us men time to stand tall

*good idea you should flesh it out
