Funny Season Finale Review!

    I love LOST but i came across a funny comment in the thread at Aint It Cool News (not a Whine About Lost thread this guy is a fan weirdly enough!)



    Utter garbage.

    One of the 10 greatest TV shows ever? That's quite a claim. Quite a ridiculous claim. I could pull 10 better shows out of my arse by stuffing the tv pages up it. What a lot of ****e that finale was. So Penny's just been sitting in front of her computer waiting for the signal to stop being jammed, and immediately manages to home in on Desmonds exact location to the square metre? That one-eyed Russian dick is invincible, is he? Yet again returning to life (so ****ing obvious). Locke knows exactly where everyone is, manages to arrive just at the precise moment Naomi is about to speak on the phone, and throws a knife into her back, without anyone asking why, does he? No one hears a rusty old VW van approaching until it's actually running them over, do they? Charlie shuts himself INSIDE to be drowned, rather than shutting himself OUTSIDE with Desmond, does he? What does that achieve? Garbage. Utter garbage. 100 groats says I still tune in for the start of the next season anyway. What a dick.

    LOL

    I would hardly classify that as a review.

    aye, "review" is a wee bit generous! i'm a LOST fanatic but i can see the funny side of it


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 1,190 ✭✭✭Haven't a Clue


    The man's got a point though. Like, I know that some of it has to be done for dramatic effect, but the Penny thing and Mikhael thing pissed me off a bit too.

    Well this is Michael Emersons take on it all , quite funny:)

    I have a feeling Mikhael constantly returning back to life has a reason to it other then for dramatic effect.
    Think the island could play a part in that

    Why didn't they put a round in him eh??? Finish him off, I would have.

    Charlie shuts himself INSIDE to be drowned, rather than shutting himself OUTSIDE with Desmond

    Or, he could have hovered at the water's surface in the room, then as the room fills up, take a big gulp of air and squeeze out through the now glass-free porthole. It looked big enough for his scrawny body!

    Haha ha that was funny clip with Mr Emerson. And how right is the interviewer about the "Dumb Heroes Fans" So true Ha HA HA :)
    I never read the feedback on AICN as they are all W@nkers writining crap comments.

    Snake ;)

    Door couldn't be shut and bolted from the outside,water would have forced it open. duh,idiot.

    And anyway, Desmond said he needed to die in order for Claire to be saved, so if he had escapred, the whole course of events would have been ruined.

    Well , the Mickail thing fair enough that is annoying.. penny thing is easy to explain , she has an alarm set to go off when it detects signal is no longer jammed.. it goes off , she rushes to a terminal ..

    simple.
    explained.

    now here are some tigers

    Huh? Don't see the difference between turning the wheel on the inside and the one on the outside, it's the same locking mechanism either way


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 25,848 ✭✭✭✭Zombrex


    This ... erm .. "review" is right on the money. The season finally was nonsense. I really think Lost, which used to pride itself on intelligence, has got very sloppy.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,552 ✭✭✭Steoob


    watch it again he doesn't turn the whell to lock it, he locks two clamped at the side of the door.. the wheel is probably broken or something


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 3,854 ✭✭✭Sinfonia


    Charlie wanted to die, because he thought, according to Desmond's premonition, Claire would be saved if he did.


    "Is a thumb really a finger?"

    exactly,he puts two bolts on the inside that are not on the outside.

    Oh, sorry. My bad.

    I think the original "reviewer" is forgetting that you have to sometimes suspend your belief when watching Lost.
    It's not meant to be completely realistic.
