Pop Posted May 24, 2007 Posted May 24, 2007 The obit says "J - ntham". So it's obvious that Jack attended the funeral of the proto-utilitarian philosopher Jeremy Bentham, in the future. Join me, and we shall make Production Beards a reality!
kumquatq3 Posted May 24, 2007 Author Posted May 24, 2007 Yeah, I read that last night too, new character maybe?
Surreptishus Posted May 24, 2007 Posted May 24, 2007 So did anyone else misinterpret the line: "Moved on with another man" ? That was a total WTF? moment for me thinking that Ben had just outed Jack... that is until I watched the scene again. Its cool that they have revitalised the flashbacks this season, what with Desmond's thing and have some Island only flashbacks. The idea of a "flashfoward" was really rather cool (even if it has been done in other shows). What if beardy unabomber Jack is in fact flashing back to the Island and the "present" timeline as it were, was him trying to get back? The Expedition/we must work together music kept making me laugh - it sounded completely out of place for some reason. Mikhail with the grenade was superb... that crazy russian undead trickster!
Tale Posted May 24, 2007 Posted May 24, 2007 (edited) The obit says "J - ntham". So it's obvious that Jack attended the funeral of the proto-utilitarian philosopher Jeremy Bentham, in the future. I read someone put forth the theory that Ben is Jeremy Bentham. It makes a bit of sense. In the, nothing ever makes sense way.

Kor Qel Droma Posted May 24, 2007 Posted May 24, 2007 So what's the scoop with Jack talking about his father? Don't tell me the island revived a corpse. That's just a bit too much for me. Jaguars4ever is still alive. No word of a lie.
Tale Posted May 24, 2007 Posted May 24, 2007 (edited) It's possible his father never died. The coffin was empty when found on the island. Heck, Desmond has been travelling through time, so literally anything is possible. Edited May 24, 2007 by Tale "Show me a man who "plays fair" and I'll show you a very talented cheater."
Kor Qel Droma Posted May 24, 2007 Posted May 24, 2007 What, so he was just faking when Jack ID'd him at the morgue? Jaguars4ever is still alive. No word of a lie.
Tale Posted May 24, 2007 Posted May 24, 2007 What, so he was just faking when Jack ID'd him at the morgue? Sure, why not? "Show me a man who "plays fair" and I'll show you a very talented cheater."
Kor Qel Droma Posted May 24, 2007 Posted May 24, 2007 Great comeback!! What's totally lame is that we'll have to wait until freaking February for the next episode. Jaguars4ever is still alive. No word of a lie.
Gfted1 Posted May 24, 2007 Posted May 24, 2007 That threw me off too, "Get my father down here and if Im drunker then him you can fire me." WTF! The whole flash forward stunk of a dream sequence. I thought the epoisode was jusk ok. Charlie dying was stupid, he could have easily run to the other side of the door to close it instead of sealing himself in. "I'm your biggest fan, Ill follow you until you love me, Papa"
Pidesco Posted May 24, 2007 Posted May 24, 2007 Sayid is awesome. "My hovercraft is full of eels!" - Hungarian touristI am Dan Quayle of the Romans.I want to tattoo a map of the Netherlands on my nether lands.Heja Sverige!!Everyone should cuffawkle more.The wrench is your friend.

I thought the epoisode was jusk ok. Charlie dying was stupid, he could have easily run to the other side of the door to close it instead of sealing himself in. Charlie was committed to dying. Because he came to believe if he didn't, they wouldn't get rescued. "Show me a man who "plays fair" and I'll show you a very talented cheater."
Pidesco Posted May 24, 2007 Posted May 24, 2007 And of course, it was all for nothing. Because there will be another season.

Gfted1 Posted May 24, 2007 Posted May 24, 2007 (edited) @ Tale: Thats an excellent point. I dont know, it just seemed so forced. Edited May 24, 2007 by Gfted1 "I'm your biggest fan, Ill follow you until you love me, Papa"
Pope Posted May 24, 2007 Posted May 24, 2007 (edited) I totally called that flashforward after 5 seconds first the beard, and what convinced me was the fact they switched the sounds for "going to past" and "going to present" who do you think is in the coffin? it's either Ben or Locke imo Edited May 24, 2007 by Pope
Kor Qel Droma Posted May 24, 2007 Posted May 24, 2007 I'd say maybe to Ben being in the coffin, no to it being Locke. Is it just me or did the casket seem kind of short? Knowing the writers on this show, it'll be a coffin for some new character that they spring on us over the next three seasons. Jaguars4ever is still alive. No word of a lie.

And yet Mikhail keeps getting up. Anyway great finale. The flash forward completely took me by surprise. I think the corpse is Juliet. Why else would Kate say "Why would I go to the funeral?" Possibly Ben? Hurley = Data He always saves the day. Edited May 25, 2007 by astr0creep http://entertainmentandbeyond.blogspot.com/

Why else would Kate say "Why would I go to the funeral?" Possibly Ben? The newspaper mentioned a man. J Bentham to be precise. I think the safest bet is Ben. Locke is unlikely to have left the Island, while they might've taken Ben with them (no idea why though).
Pidesco Posted May 25, 2007 Posted May 25, 2007 Perhaps the corpse is Jacob.... "My hovercraft is full of eels!" - Hungarian touristI am Dan Quayle of the Romans.I want to tattoo a map of the Netherlands on my nether lands.Heja Sverige!!Everyone should cuffawkle more.The wrench is your friend.
Hurlshort Posted May 25, 2007 Posted May 25, 2007 Perhaps the corpse is Jacob.... That was my thought. Maybe he's some guy who turned invisible somehow, and eventually he'll lose it and have to return to LA.
Darque Posted May 26, 2007 Posted May 26, 2007 Future flashbacks = autofail. First heroes, and now Lost, TV is looking bleak at the moment...
astr0creep Posted May 26, 2007 Posted May 26, 2007 Future flashbacks = autofail. First heroes, and now Lost, TV is looking bleak at the moment... At the moment TV is bleak because all the seasons are over. WTF are we supposed to watch this summer? Even saturday morning cartoons have been replace by fishing shows here. http://entertainmentandbeyond.blogspot.com/
Rosbjerg Posted May 26, 2007 Posted May 26, 2007 That threw me off too, "Get my father down here and if Im drunker then him you can fire me." WTF! The whole flash forward stunk of a dream sequence. I thought the epoisode was jusk ok. Charlie dying was stupid, he could have easily run to the other side of the door to close it instead of sealing himself in. Jack was high on drugs - I think that could explain his outburst.. A fact that made me laugh, about Charlies death, was that the "window" wasn't positioned very high - meaning the room would never fill entirely up with water because of the air pressure. But I would've liked if they'd made it more believable - the grenade could've hurt him bad or something. Fortune favors the bald.
Guest Accept Posted June 13, 2007 Posted June 13, 2007 (edited) Okay. So the last episode of this season were shown today here in Sweden... ...And heck, It gives me the creeps. A little bit inside died when I realised that it was the FUTURE Jack had flasbac... flashforwards about. I mean... next season can't take stage there, in the civilisation and "the real world", can it? That's what makes me scared. And to see Jack like that, completly... ruined... I didn't like that.
