    Just because Jack is the main character of the show doesn't mean he can't be the one to die this time. Didn't the writers originally plan for him to die in the first episode anyway?

    But she had nothing todo with eko, just bumped into him in d airport

    Until the folks at ABC said they shouldn't kill off the main character. It's looking more ominous for a Jack survival now.

    :(

    Initially Kate was supposed to be the leader, so she's a prime candidate as Jack's replacement if he were to die.

    I know, I just meant that she'll probably make another appearance again soon, maybe in just a cameo. Look at all the dead characters that keep coming back: Christian Shepherd, Ethan, Goodwin, Boone and Shannon. Maybe we'll see Eko and Ana-Lucia again in Season 4.

    Was that really the plan???!!?
    That seems crazy, with how important his character has been

    I think the reason Jack was originally going to die in the pilot is because they were planning to cast a big name star (possibly Michael Keaton) in the part, who assumedly wouldn't want to commit to a tv series.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,367 ✭✭✭Agamemnon


    Just as well that didn't happen - if Michael Keaton was in the show, I wouldn't watch it! I know some people don't like Jack but can you imagine how bad he'd be if Keaton played him?

    Sad Prof, I like your idea that someone could die and be reborn like Sheridan (good ol' B5 - you have great taste in tv). We've seen that the island can cure fatal illnesses so it's not that much of a stretch to have it bring someone back from the dead. Ok, no-one that died so far came back (flashbacks and maybe Christian Shepherd aside) but maybe there's a way to do it.

    Actually i have to agree with your first comment. One of the reasons i like LOST so much is because the people in the show were completely new to me and i like that about shows.

    If someone actually does come back from the dead on this show, I'll stop watching it. I'm still hoping, however faint that hope may be, that all the mysteries will have a logical conclusion. If they start bringing ones back from the dead, that's the end of any logic in the show.

    I hope its not Jack or Desmond. I'm one of the few people who actually likes Jack, and as the main character, i dont think it would be a good idea to kill him off, especially if its just cause alot of people dont like him.

    As for Desmond, he's probably my favourite character, now that Eko is gone. I liked Locke originally, but then he went all crazy. Also hope to see Penny in it more...she pretty damn fine.

    I have to agree 100% with you mate. If someone shows up again that we clearly seen die then i will be pis*ed and will probably stop watching the show also. As Haven't a Clue said, i am also hoping for a logical conclusion to all of the questions.

    You're talking about logic in Lost? I can see where people would be p1ssed if they brought someone back from the dead but tbh nothing makes sense in Lost and there's no logic to it all.

    If the island has healing abilities, than it's not much of a stretch (still a stretch though, in fairness - some people won't accept it) to bring someone back to life.

    I wouldn't like it to happen - but it's not something that would make me stop watching Lost. If they do bring someone back, it's gotta be season 1 characters (Boone and Shannon all the way! Especially Boone cos he's sexy :p )

    It's getting slightly more logical as we go on. A good few of the wtf questions have been answered, eg. the polar bears, the hatch, what happens when the button isn't pushed.

    The only thing in the show I don't see how they can get a logical conclusion out of is the smoke/monster thingy. But, I live in hope.

    I was thinking more along the lines of bring back Shannon cause she's damn sexy.

    Please kill Charlie. For the love of God kill him!

    LOL you feel very strongly about that huh? :D


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,492 ✭✭✭upmeath


    I've been hearing talk of Charlie dying before the finale for some time now, I'm not prepared to accept it as gospel but it seems to be one of the recurring storylines in S3, Charlie and how he manages to evade death (albeit with Desmond's interventions) time and time again. So Charlie or Dessie. Will there be only one Briton left on the island next season?


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 5,574 ✭✭✭ZiabR


    I am moving towards, it will be Desmond that gets it. While trying to save Charlie.

    I'm thinking that too, but hoping its not Desmond... he's one of the best characters in it now!


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 894 ✭✭✭brav


    I voted Jack, just to give us a break from him, but I think it could be desmond, just to stop the cycle of Charlie dying.
    I don't think the writers can keep desmond in his current form, seeing the future etc


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,492 ✭✭✭upmeath


    But then again if Charlie were to die then maybe Desmond's visions would cease. Cuse hinted in this week's podcast that should Desmond be the one to die then maybe Charlie would inherit his ability to see the future. Strange what too much monk's wine/heroin can do to a boy really...


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 5,574 ✭✭✭ZiabR


    Didn't the writers say it would be a big big character that dies? Would you really class Charlie as a big character, cause i wouldn't. It has to be someone else.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 3,183 ✭✭✭Dearg81


    I reckon Kates gonna die, her back story seems to be complete and shes turned into a bit of a minger recently. Yea, she defo gonna get it ;)

    You know i was just thinking that. It will most likely be someone we do not expect. Maybe even Sawyer.

    Nah, the ratings would plunge if Sawyer died. Bear in mind the hick Sawyer was a rewrite of a city con (Anthony Cooper) after Josh Holloway impressed in auditions. I reckon Jack, Locke, Cooper and Sawyer will be there at Judgment Day, mark my words now.
    Charlie is a big character, Pickett or Colleen dying is an example of a non-big character dying. And Hurley is a colossal character :D


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 5,574 ✭✭✭ZiabR


    So what are you saying? Kate is the one?


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 2,026 ✭✭✭Killaqueen!!!


    Nobody would expect sayid to die...but there'd be no point in that.

    Charlie is too obvious but how else is this cycle gonna stop. I don't think Desmond will die what with his flashback with the woman in the jewelary shop a while ago. that's gotta be revisted. He seems to be a popular character also. I'm thinking Chaaaaarlie will sacrifice himself for something or other (most likely Claire/Ehhhrin)

    Imagine if they killed off Ben!!!! :O
