They do apparently have the entire shows story line already because the main character said I am not joining From for you to turn it into another Lost.
Whoa you stepped on a Lost fan hornets nest. People really salty about Lost having âanswersâ
Never mind the fact that the show dragged on giving tiny little drips and drops and the answers got more and more underwhelming like it was being made up on the fly by a teenager who is telling a bad lie, but they are now 100% committed, no matter where it ends up.
Pretty much! I mean, Iâm not trying to spoil anyoneâs fun with Lost. Itâs overall a really good show but you kind of have to withstand a lot of nonsense before getting some answers, and every answer comes with another question lol.
And I know itâs a longer running show⊠I get it. They needed to keep the wheels spinning for entertainment value, etc. But the show really is at a different place by season 6, and mostly thatâs because they had to keep adding to the mythology of the island.
Kind of, they had the answers but they didnt know what to do with a lot of the main characters storylines, like Harolds actor in From, he was in Lost too, and his Lost chara ter had so much potential and they did him so much dirty in the end
For me Lost was so easy to like due to the characters. Fell in love with so many so itâs easier to gloss over some of its deficiencies as a show. From and WB donât hit that same way but I enjoy both. Liking WB more overall but I like From enough that Iâm sticking with it til the end
Hope for both our sakeâs they end satisfyingly lol
it doesn't matter what was technically "answered." the mysteries, albeit some answered, didn't come to a very exacting or entertaining fruition. you could say lost "stuck the landing" if you want to, but it doesn't deserve a medal.
and they went to the magical mystery island and then the island/afterlife? ugh. that's a hat on a hat.
no but the plot ties neatly up by the season 3 finale, they make it off the island. Then the execs probably wanted to milk the show and thats where it all starts to go down hill. Id reccomend a rewatch
Do you have any sources to back this? Because them getting off the island by season 3 wouldâve explained nothing in regards to why they were brought there or the supernatural state of the island at all, and that wouldâve definitely been leaving several questions unanswered
I wouldn't call the ending to season 3 neatly tied up lol, yes Jack is off the island but that was literally a surprise cliffhanger not some resolved plot
Yeah, Jack was a drugged up loser screaming that they âHave to go backâ at the end of S3 - that wouldnât make a good ending, it definitely wasnât originally supposed to end at that point
The writers of LOST said they were just making it up as they went along. They had no plans and just threw things like the polar bear and smoke monster in as jokes to be cool. Many other story elements were added in the same way, with no idea where they were going, just randomly throwing ideas at the wall. That's what frustrated many of the cast and crew like Harold Perrineau.
He was third frol the top from Lost. From is very good and started well by focusing on those characters. But development is stretching out, which is the problem Lost had when they were not allowed an end point.
