Creators of Lost must be laughing

Any Lost fans here? I was thinking about the show yesterday and had a lightbulb moment. I thought, I remember seeing the movie Lost Horizon as a kid. Could it be that simple? Is the whole show just an updated version of Lost Horizon – right down to using a shortened version of the title? Are the creators laughing at all the theories and going “how much more OBVIOUS do we have to make it?”

Decide for yourself.

    No overweight lottery winner? Totally different.

    At least we know they’re not in purgatory.

    “A lightbulb moment”……what do you think appeared over Edison’s head when he came up with the idea for the lightbulb? I’m just askin’.

    what is “a candlestick” Alex.

    poot ze cendle, BECK!

    Lost is the show we can’t stop watching because it’s a fun puzzle, which I know now has an ending in 2 years. Also, we’ve put this much into it; the endgame should be very entertaining. You find yourself saying things out loud, like “are we supposed to know why they are doing that?”

    Usually we watch it, crazy shit happens right at the end, and we both say “huh–wasn’t expecting that. OK, time for bed.”

    HE…WAS…MY…BOYFRIEND!

    Anyway, now I need to see that movie. I hope “Maria” is as hot as “Kate,” but less airheaded.

  5. jackie says:

    Other Jim – how’d you like the flying hot pocket?

  6. Other Jim says:

    HOT POK-ETTT…..sorry.

    Who would guess Hurley eats hot pockets. How does he lose no weight on the island, when all they do is walk around sweating to death while pointedly not eating anything?

    Dave—check out the cover of this weeks Entertainment Weekly –”LOVING LOST — outrageous! addictive! totally confusing!” You’re just so damned prescient.

    Kate’s not airheaded. She’s hungry. And misses me.

  7. Dave says:

    No, Kate’s not so airheaded. Evangeline Lilly is WAY airheaded.

  8. Other Jim says:

    Your point? You were going to speak to her?

  9. Other Jim says:

    LOST just ended for this evening.

    Thinking.

    Hmmm.

    DAMMIT – WHERE HAVE WE SEEN THAT WOMAN???

    OK, time for bed.

  10. jackie says:

    Who? Eloise?

  11. Other Jim says:

    The lady lighting candles at the very end…..could be Daniel’s mom. I think…….she sold the engagement ring to Desmond for Penny……or not.

  12. Merno says:

    well, she actually didn’t sell the ring to Desmond she told him not to marry Penny hence beginning the steps that took him to the island.

  13. Joe says:

    If the government would drop Jack Bauer on that island he’d have this whole mess figured out and sewn right up within a clean 24 hours.

  14. Dave says:

    DAMMIT CHLOE I NEED SATELLITE IMAGERY OF THE ORCHID! NNNOOWW!!!

  15. Other Jim says:

    And as always, guns don’t kill people, Jack Bauer kills people.

    Who would win in a fight, Jack Bauer or Sayid?

    It would really crack me up if they opened a new hatch and all that was in there was a giant ticking digital “24″ clock.

    Or if a manhole opened and the guys from Prison Break popped out.

  16. Patti says:

    “Or if a manhole opened and the guys from Prison Break popped out.”

    Now that’s funny right there!

    I don’t know who the woman lighting the candles was, but she’s quite familiar. She was probably in the first season. Which is not helpful to me, I barely remember what i ate for breakfast.

    The answer to your question, other jim, is Sayid. He’d kill Bauer before he knew what hit him….
    Bauer would be to busy on his cell yelling at the ugly girl….oh, i mean Chloe.

    “Evangeline Lilly is WAY airheaded.”

    How dare you. HOW DARE YOU.
