I really appreciate the faith you have in me there! And I am flattered by your sentiments, truly. But I am not alone. There are many fans still actively running Reddit pages, discussion groups and channels across the internet who are keeping conversations about LOST going and writing their own analyses or making their own content. There is even a 20th anniversary documentary in post-production right now that is earmarked for release later this year, which will have interviews with many of the cast and crew (and super fans). I hope my work reaches far and wide within the fandom, but we are all part of keeping the legacy of the show alive.

12:11 Personally, I absolutely LOVE the iconic orange peel smile scene, and I find it extremely cool that the writers decided to include it in Locke's flash-sideways "awakening" moment! The scene is bizarre, extravagant, comical, intriguing and memorable all at the same time (honestly, it comes close to the epic "Walt...do you want to know a secret?" scene for me). It perfectly captures how Locke's perception of what was happening to the castaways completely differed from the rest of the group right from the start. And let's say it: Locke is rather an ambivalent, multi-faceted and perhaps even paradoxical character, which is quite well expressed in his one-of-a-kind smile pointed at a confused Kate haha :).

I love that scene too! I love that from our perspective in the pilot, it's creepy, but it completely changes after Walkabout, and you realize he was just exuberant, experiencing small joys in the light of his miracle, maybe kind of punch drunk from the experience. His joy is only disturbing when contrasted with everyone else's trauma, and the question of why he's acting differently.

When you finish the show, or at least at a few points during the last two seasons, if you really like the show it's easy to see the 'everything happened for a reason/there are no coincidences' message it conveys. But only after watching the show for a second time do you realize that the several animal run-ins for certain characters and how they contribute to their backstory can either be the MIB or the island doing so is when it really hits you hard. You just blew my mind with that at the end of this video

I agree with most of what you say but not all (specifically Hurley). Not every character has to be multidimensional. Thats how it is in real life. So if anything, i think the show made a slight stumble giving Hurley more layers. There's nothing wrong with being a regular, "everyman." And thats how Hurley was introduced. But that's ok! I love that us LOST fans have differing opinions and thoughts about things. Thats how it was when the show was airing. It was always a group of us watching and we would discuss and debate things and characters, and that was one of the great things about this show. It allowed itself for that. So even if I have a differing opinion about 1 thing in this whole video, i am very glad you are making these videos for us to discuss different views, opinions, etc. That is wonderful, and I thank you. ❤

Amazing start to the guide! I wish you all the best success with it. I do think it's worth stating that you have a lot of fans out there, but you also have a lot of copycats and others who envy your progress. There are certain people on Reddit and Facebook who do not want to see your channel succeed. For example, someone posted this video on Reddit the other day and the mods locked the comments on it to stifle its engagement. I can see why you don't post on there anymore. It's so damn toxic! There are a lot of small egos and gatekeeping that goes on in this fandom, which really sucks, but I'm glad you are breaking through with your subs and views on youtube! It is well deserved.

Congratulations on the quality analysis. It's like Lostpedia - The Series! I was eagerly waiting for this, and now I am eagerly waiting for more! I always thought, though, that the means by which so many 815 passengers survived had something to do with teleportation. We see it happen to Locke, Desmond and Mr. Eko when the hatch implodes and to Jack when he puts the cork back in the source inside the cave only to reappear outside, in the bamboo field. One could also argue that flashing through time is a sort of teleportation, especially when the Ajira passengers arrive back in the seventies in scattered spots on the ground, rather than all together in the air. And of course, the most notable case of teleportation happens to the Island itself in the season 4 finale. I'm also pretty sure the Smoke Monster is capable of some degree of teleportation, especially when he changes form. Since all these instances - even Smokey's transformations - happen alongside a discharge of electromagnetic energy, I think it's fair to assume it might have occurred to the 815 survivors, at least some of them, like Jack. What do you think?

@LOSTEXPLAINED108 Ай бұрын

I think that’s a totally plausible thesis actually. At the very least for Jack. And we do see him teleported again when he is taken off the Ajira flight - not just teleported through time but also to a very specific space; he wakes up in a dense part of the jungle again. So, I would agree that there is evidence to support what you are saying. I don’t know about all of the survivors of Oceanic 815 being teleported though - surely at least one or two would have been in a heightened state of adrenaline and awareness and would have noticed a jump from a midair free fall to suddenly being on the beach in wreckage? I think they would all have to be out cold before the teleportation and impact occurred for that to work, or a lot of caveats. However, I think you’re right on the money with Jack there!

@dlaimer Ай бұрын

@@LOSTEXPLAINED108 I don’t think we’ve seen anyone being teleported while conscious, though. Even after turning the frozen donkey wheel while healthy and wide awake, both Ben and Locke seem to firstly wale up in Tunisia, suggesting that they somehow lost consciousness. Maybe this is par for the course when one is not used to the electromagnetic energy that emanates from the source. My theory is that, after 2000 years, Jacob can teleport at will - or when the Island allows/requires him to -, which is how he travels from the Island and back. And maybe Walt, who has a history of projecting himself across space and time, one day will be able to do that as well. 🤷🏻‍♂️

@LOSTEXPLAINED108 Ай бұрын

I am fully with you on Jacob and Walt having that power. I think the show demonstrates that fact across several instances. In my video on The Game, I discuss how Jacob uses the lighthouse mirrors as a targeting system for his travel. He goes through the looking glass as it were. Almost all of the candidate locations reflect places we saw him visit. In time, Walt might develop his abilities in a similar way and be able to aim better.

LOST is officially coming to Netflix and I really hope you do a deep dive into each episode so we can watch it along with your videos. I know it's a lot but I think that would be super cool, especially since breakdown videos weren't a thing when the show officially aired. Here's hoping!

@LOSTEXPLAINED108 21 күн бұрын

Yes, I’ve seen that news! Hopefully it will expose LOST to a whole new audience. 🙏 I plan to release a new video every month or so, although I can only go so fast. It’s 120+ episodes to cover and I’m a one man band. It takes a lot of time to write, record and edit one single video. I would love to do this full time and release a new video every two weeks but the ad revenue generation just doesn’t justify that commitment yet. As the channel grows and affords me more time, I’ll be able to invest longer man hours into the project and speed up the release schedule. Part of me is hoping the Netflix release will reignite larger interest and increase my own traffic. However, I also think this episode guide should be something to savour, and that my focus should be on quality rather than speed. That way, in the years to come, whenever anyone watches or rewatches the show they can always reference my guide. That’s the hope anyway.
