Lost: The Sixth and Final Season-"The End" (Part 4)

I got the dvd box way cheaper, but a little different.

Aside .. got standard blu ray box as well.

+ PS3 game.

 

Looks stunning in Blu Ray. Dunno if 4K is possible?

 

Yes, looks beautiful in Blu-ray. I've never seen 4K in my home. I'm on Season 2 now, Shannon was just shot. Michelle Rodriguez is excellent in this season. . . perfect casting as "Cortez the Killer."

 

Oops spoilers if you’ve never seen it before!!!

Her and Mr.Eko went out clubbing after filming.




















Think she got into a bit of trouble on set( or off)read something ..that’s why her character died early.

 

On the final season to watch this time through (I went 6, 5, 4 then 1, 2 and now 3). I'm slow, but this time I realized that the actress playing the mother of Ben Linus (actor John Emerson) is Carrie Preston (John Emerson's wife).

Lots of little things have crept up watching this time, and realizing which appearances are "the Man in Black" really changes things.

 

Think I’m lost for repeat viewings after my fourth binge.

 

That's the way I felt about five years ago. But I had a hankering and glad I went through them again. Enjoyed it a lot!

By the way I'm incorrect above, it's Michael Emerson, not John.

 

Well I watched LOST ( 4rth time 2019). Good time to watch it in 2020 with the Covid madness about.

 

And because nothing ever really ends (especially on the internet), here's a fairly thorough article on how the ending of Lost was intended and how it was received by fans and critics:

No, They Weren’t Dead the Whole Time:
An oral history of Lost’s daring, divisive finale, our last truly communal broadcast TV experience.

 

The early HDTV era had some great shows that looked fantastic. It really seemed like a new kind of television experience had been born.

Our ABC affiliate had to switch to standard definition during the commercials because they didn't have the equipment to air them in high definition, and sometimes they would forget to switch back to HD after the commercials. If they forgot during Lost they would instantly get calls from the hundred or so people in the area who had HD televisions.

Eventually the problem was solved when someone at the station became obsessed with the show. They didn't have an HDTV, so they would stay late to watch in high definition at the station!

 

It was a good show. I agree with Cuse and Lindelof thst they needed to know when the end was so she could draft out the final seasons. Having said that, the show srill went on a season too long IMHO. It really should have ended with season four but they did introduce some additional intriguing elements. My issue was with how cheesy the conclusion was. It was comparable to the end of Crystal Skull.

I think that Stephen King should have received some on screen credit at the time-there’s so many elements borrowed from King, it would have been appropriate.

 

I think Stephen King has borrowed his share of elements himself over the years. It's a genre that there really isn't much left to do but rework ideas.

 

Couldn’t see any King references myself.

 

As a long time fan of the genre o wouldn’t disagree.

 

Just saw this on Facebook.
