Mr. Breathmask 555 Posted June 30, 2009 Author Share Posted June 30, 2009 According to EW.com's Michael Ausiello, "ABC confirms that Lost's sixth and final season will total 18 hours, including two-hour premiere and two-hour finale." Another hour of Lost added to the final season. Yay!(source) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Datameister 2,034 Posted June 30, 2009 Share Posted June 30, 2009 Excellent!Also, I'm hoping to soon have piano sheet music for "Hollywood and Vines" uploaded for anyone who's interested. Someone else did a partial transcription on the Lostpedia article, but I'm creating a version specifically for two-handed piano performance.

Datameister 2,034 Posted June 30, 2009 Share Posted June 30, 2009 All right, I've finished ripping and editing unreleased highlights of "Pilot, Part 1." My track titles are:* World's Worst Beach Party (Alternate): Not a very clean rip, but still interesting to hear the percussion and orchestra mixed differently, with one passage in the middle that's completely different as Jack looks up at 815's wing.* World's Second Worst Beach Party: This is cleaner, with a variant on the percussion heard in the end credits near the beginning. This starts a few seconds after "World's Worst Beach Party."* Perils and Cockpitfalls: An unnerving, dissonant motif for strings is introduced as Jack, Kate, and Charlie climb up through the front end of the plane. Lots of rain SFX.* The End of the Pilot: They find the pilot's body in the tree at the end of part 1 after that same motif is brought back. This one is a startlingly clean rip, with just hints of bird calls in a couple of spots.On to part 2! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Datameister 2,034 Posted July 1, 2009 Share Posted July 1, 2009 Moving on to the rest of the first disc:* Splish Splash, Kate Was Taking a Bath: Lame title, I know. But it's a lame scene, too. Luckily, the music is not. Nice, different statement of the main theme. Fairly strong wave SFX, but it's not that big a deal.* Hollywood and Vines (Alternate Mix): The percussion is louder. Boomier. I like it.* Piggin' Out: The boars come into camp, accompanied by dissonant strings and pounding percussion. Yelling sounds in the background, unfortunately, but fairly clean otherwise.* Locke Stands Up For Himself: Locke whines at the walkabout dude in Australia, then stands up on the beach after the crash, all accompanied by the first statement of Locke's second theme. (Except for the start of the episode, when the chords just play briefly without the melody.)I hope to tackle the second disc within the next few days! If these updates seem totally irrelevant, just let me know. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Elmo Lewis 6 Posted July 4, 2009 Share Posted July 4, 2009 So I was going through Season 4's "The Shape of Things to Come", initially just for the music, but then I realized the title of the episode was more appropriate that I thought. I had always loved the conversation between Widmore and Ben at the end of the episode, from a character point of view, but now I realize how much their conflict mirrors Jacob and Esau's. See for instance lines like:Widmore: I know who you are... what you are. I know that everything you have you took from meAnd more especially:Widmore: Have you come here to kill me Benjamin?Ben: We both know I can't do that...We don't know the origin of Jacob and Esau's conflict (though I still maintain that it's quite possibly going to be fate vs. free will), but I find it very interesting how, as the show expands its scope each season, the new situations mirror the old ones like some hopeless circle of inevitability. Would that make the show about finding the loophole? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Koray Savas 2,251 Posted July 4, 2009 Share Posted July 4, 2009 Yes I'm pretty sure the rules Ben and Widemore follow are the same Jacob and Man #2 follow. I don't like that you call him Esau. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Koray Savas 2,251 Posted July 6, 2009 Share Posted July 6, 2009 Most of it is the usual: We won't answer what happened in the finale or what is going to happen and not going to happen in Season 6.Claire was not in Season 5 because they felt it told a story she was not a part of, but they have something great planned for her in Season 6.Libby's explanation: Her husband died, she went crazy, spent some time in the mental institution, and then gave her boat to Desmond. Her bump with Hurley in the same institution is no more than the other instances where characters run into each other off-island pre-crash.Matthew Fox apparently knows the ending and the last shot is a still image. They didn't comment and made a joke that Fox needs to tell them the ending. They will go into "hiding" so to speak to avoid uproar from fans about the series finale. It is the type of ending where people will want further clarification, but they want the fans to come up with what it means on their own. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BLUMENKOHL 1,068 Posted July 24, 2009 Share Posted July 24, 2009 In the season finale, does anyone else think Jack's "If I were you, I wouldn't give up on him" (re: Locke to Alpert) is a bit of foreshadowing on the part of the writers? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Koray Savas 2,251 Posted July 24, 2009 Share Posted July 24, 2009 What do you mean?Season 5 on DVD is currently $39 on Amazon, if anyone is interested. $50 for the Blu-ray.

Koray Savas 2,251 Posted July 27, 2009 Share Posted July 27, 2009 They point to a definite alternate timeline for season 6, which had been heavily speculated after the finale.When the hell did they point to that?Some of it is spoilerish, Datameister, but nothing too big/important. Most of it was which characters we would see again.Main points:Season 6 will be like Season 1 in a sense that a lot of the characters we haven't seen since then will be returning. I think this mostly just means Walt, possibly Boone and other smaller characters.We will see Faraday again.Alpert's backstory will be explained and possibly linked to the arrival of the Black Rock.Jacob has not been seen in any shape or form on the show until the Season 5 finale.I think these are "safe" to read, but knowing you I would probably skip the first two ones and read the last two.

All their answers were pretty ambiguousGuys...please, no spoilers. I'm beggin' ya. Some of us - okay, just me - enjoy it more without knowing anything about it in advance.Joe, Damon and Carlton know what they are doing. They don't reveal anything during these videos other than "such and such actor will be back", which, as I mentioned before, doesn't really mean anything since the show is full of time travel and flashbacks. None of their answers has anything to do with if a character is dead or alive or anything like that.

crocodile 7,973 Posted July 27, 2009 Share Posted July 27, 2009 I disagree, they did no such thing. All their answers were pretty ambiguousYes. There is nothing that confirms or denies anything. They suggest things, but you never know the context.A random thought: I'm not so worried about whether they know what they're doing overall. What bugs me a bit are small things, details they get wrong. Like in the Bentham episode this year. According to Jack in S4 finale scene, Locke told him Ben was off the island and that bad things happened and that it's his fault. Nothing like that happened in the actual episode, when Locke was in hospital. He didn't know about Ben until much later. The show kind of looses credibility because of this kind of errors. But, maybe, there is something else. You never know...Karol Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Koray Savas 2,251 Posted August 7, 2009 Share Posted August 7, 2009 OK this is old news, and not revealing because we already know what happened, but...I was watching reruns on SyFy and it was the Season 4 finale. When Locke watches the Orchid orientation video, I never picked up on Dr. Chang saying the rabbit will appear to disappear momentarily, but actually - then the tape starts to rewind. I never connected that to the island appearing to disappear, but it actually moved in time.And I guess this orientation bunny was the same one that appeared on the shelf in the other orientation video that was shown a couple years ago. So the two bunnies were the same one, the other was just finally reappeared after moving in time. Yes? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't consider it to be a spoiler since it doesn't really tell us much. I seriously doubt it means what most of people think it does, which is that there is an alternate timeline created where the plane doesn't crash. The creators often said the growth of characters is what the show is about. But, I think, it may suggest something we don't know about yet. Maybe it is another device to tell the story, with the imagined alternate reality replacing flashbacks and flashforwards? It could make for interesting contrast between what actually happened and what would happen. Just a thought.

Datameister 2,034 Posted August 11, 2009 Share Posted August 11, 2009 Please, no! I mean, bring Locke back, sure, but if I see that cliche one more time, I think I'll have to clone myself, force someone else into that same scenario, and hope they pull the trigger in my direction so I'll be put out of my misery.And again...thank you all for the use of spoiler tags. Better to air on the side of caution than to forgo them in iffy cases. Ideally, I'd like to watch the first episode of season 6 with absolutely no knowledge of where and when the characters will be, what they'll be trying to do, what they'll be thinking, who'll be with whom, etc. For some reason, I just enjoy it a lot more that way, though I acknowledge that realistically, I'll learn bits and pieces between now and then.

Docteur Qui 1,544 Posted August 11, 2009 Share Posted August 11, 2009 Regarding the first episode title:I heard that it's actually called LAX, and the episode deals with a not deadly, but highly contagious stomach bug code-named "LAX" which is released on the island by DHARMA in an effort to fight the Others. Their aim is to remove all the banana leaves and toilet paper on the island and watch them suffer. Riveting stuff. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
