And on the sixth day the LORD David Bowie created man and woman in His image. And he saw that it was good. On the seventh day the LORD created videogames so that He might take the bloody day off for once.

I'll still watch the series eventually.
I was doing fine...til now.
whatever :/
 
BSG
I felt more sorry for Chief considering he went from hot ass Boomer to Cally. Nah I felt sorry for both of them. And it was a genuine LOL moment when he literally obliterates the memory of her when he's drunk at the bar with Adama

lol who started this?

Chief was an asshole. I believed Cally was, for the most part, a victim. She tried, dammit!
 
Most of the characters went through some big rough patches

I think they only made Ellen the final cylon because they really didn't want Tigh to finish the series on such a depressing note. Killing his wife for collaborating with the Cylons while Baltar goes free, AND sporting a fancy eyepatch to boot. Anyways, favorite moment/episode? I have a few (and they tend to have great soundtrack moments too). Baltar's early episode where in head 6 almost got him caught for betraying the 12 colonies. Bill waiting for Roslin in the raptor while the fleet jumped away. Lee retiring his wings in Season 4. Fat Lee. Bill's farewell to Roslin in the finale. Lee's farewell to his dad in finale

Makes me tear up a bit. I hope Lost has a pretty emotional finale too. In the end I care more about the character's conclusion than the Island's. Though I'm probably in the minority on that.
 
The experience of watching BSG from start to end on Blu Ray was a very enjoyable one. Some characters suffered throught the show, and towards the end I can pick on the plot, but it felt like a complete, great piece of work. I think my opinion may have been tainted watching it as it aired.

On topic, Lost Season 2.

We all saw this scenario coming... but it's finally happening! Awesome. :D

Was Sun X freaked out by Locke X because she was having residual memories of Flocke? Lends credence to the idea that Sun-prime's current language problem is a side effect of her consciousnesses being partially merged.

Exciting stuff!
 
Surely the timing doesn't match up for them to be at the hospital at the same time? Locke's story surely took place over a longer period than Sun and Jin's?

Why?

Both are implied to have had happened on the second day. Des got to LA, met with Widmore, went to the police station to get Charlie, crashed, went to the hospital, went over to the party, met Penny that night, got the passenger list, he could have met Hurley and hit Locke in the afternoon of the second day.

Sun was certainly shot on the second day.

The sideways stuff in the Package lasts like 2 days. Could Locke really have been fired, got a new job in that space of time?

Excellent point. Even if Locke went to work the day he got back, then went to the temp agency the following day, even if it was John's first day, it is three days minimum.

Then there's the fact that we see Locke on a different day saying he'll support Ben becoming principal.
Do we know it's a different day? Locke could have had his 'gentleman's drink' the same day. Either way, you're right, they've some how lost a day minimum.

Damn you're right, killer_clank. The X timeline's sequence of events don't seem to match up at all.

They're really stretching plausibility here.:lol

well not really...yet
Flash Sideways Day 1:
- Locke gets fired, goes to Temp Agency
- Sayid visits his brother
- Sun and Jin stay ay Hotel
- All events in Happily ever After

Day 2:
- Sayids Brother is attacked
- Keamy visits Sun and Jin
- Locke rips up Jaks business card
- Desmond visits Hurley

Day 3:
- Sayid Kills Keamy
- Jin is in Freezer
- Locke starts job as Substitute
- Sun is shot (very late at night?)
- Hurley has date with Libby

Day 4:
- Desmond runs over Locke (early morning?)
- Sun Rushed to Hospital
- Locke Rushed to Hospital

I think thats the aproximate timeline

Was there any timelapse in The Package when Jin was put in the freezer? Sayid found Jin in the Freezer on his 3rd day for sure.

So Sun is at the bank for a whole day? WOW Dedication.

I believe Locke is hit in the afternoon, school is out by 4 there.

Day 3 and Day 4 has to be the same day... Desmond ran over Locke the same day as Hurley's date. Also, Sun being shot on Day 3 and rushed to Day 4 is not a "rush to hospital" if you know what I mean.

Here's how it goes:


Day 2:
- Sayids Brother is attacked
- Keamy visits Sun and Jin
- Locke rips up Jaks business card
- Desmond visits Hurley

Day 3:
- Sayid Kills Keamy
- Jin is in Freezer
- Locke starts job as Substitute
- Sun is shot
- Hurley has date with Libby
- Desmond runs over Locke
- Sun Rushed to Hospital
- Locke Rushed to Hospital

The reason being is that Sayid is taken to the restaurant during breakfast time. Keamy be baking eggs and being shot while he's at it. A few hours later (i.e. Afternoon, when school finishes) Sun gets shot while Locke is ran over.

Alright, then:

Day 3:
- Sayid Kills Keamy
- Jin is in Freezer
- Locke starts job as Substitute
- Sun is shot (during day)
- Hurley has date with Libby
- Desmond runs over Locke (after school)
- Sun Rushed to Hospital (late afternoon)
- Locke Rushed to Hospital (late afternoon)

It doesn't make sense at all. Sayid is taken to the kitchen on the third day, he gets back day one, his brother is beaten day two, he is taken on the third day because he's going to get the kids from school, and he put them to bed the day his brother was beaten. But Jin has to be in the kitchen on the second day. Unless there is a day between Jin and Sun checking in, and Keamy getting the watch, but that is certainly not the implication.
 

Dead

Actually, another inconsistency

Dr. Linus:

- Ben and Locke meet

a day passes, seemingly without Locke being run over

So Locke has to have been teaching 2 days at the very least.
 
Also, Locke wears completely different clothes every time we see him in that school setting. No way did he start and get run over on the same day.

Well, to be fair, we don't actually know for a fact that Locke is being rushed to hospital in that clip. He could be being moved to another hospital in that scene. Although it doesn't look like that.

EDIT: That makes no sense, ignore it. It's Sun that needs more days, not Locke.

Yeah, The Package seems to be the only episode that is messing up the timeline consistency

If Sun were already at the hospital while Locke was being rushed there, that would pretty much fix any inconsistency.

Indeed, Desmond's actions can be guessed, but there is no real reference to days passing after the meeting with Penny. And they could pretend Sayid had been taken any time they wanted, and just say his brother is still in hospital.

But Jin wanted to give the watch the night he got there, it would be crazy to accept that he just hung out at the hotel shagging Sun for a few days before Keamy turned up.
 
yea they fucked up with this, but its pretty easy to ignore I guess.

anothing thing: with sun not able to speak english in the island timeline, that could be another example of island timeline and X-timeline merging.

Quite possibly, yes. Sun banging her head could have the same effect as Desmond drowning or Charlie suffocating or Hurley making out.

ITT we argue about continuity errors that dont matter

Yeah, I don't really give a fuck which day it was on. This show's about a time traveling island featuring a monster made of smoke. I don't give too much of a fuck about plausibility.

Yea, that's a pretty big 3 day gap between Sun getting shot and Locke suggesting Ben should be principal. There continuity has been really strong throughout the series in terms of dates and such, it'd be a shame to let this shit pass. Like, Ben tutors Alex and all that shit without bringing up the fact that the crippled substitute got run over in the parking lot is a bit of a stretch as it is. If you put this at the day after Ben's story ends, that's like, a 6 day gap and a full week after Oceanic landed. Shit is fucked up.

She's still in the bag on Jacob's wheel.

I think it's because she murdered someone actually. I don't think Sayid had done that until he got to the island. Not sure though, but that's my theory.

"Be good, Katie." Remember?

Sayid killed his guard friend when he was letting Nadia escape. Back in whenever his first flashback was.

Before Jacob touched him, though. Not sure how much that matters. Or maybe Jacob has a serious gender bias.

Damn. Just realized events from "Everybody Loves Hugo" hasn't been folded into the timeline link yet.

That's not an excuse for basic continuity sloppiness. The Lost production staff tends to pride themselves on such details. They even did a entire DVD featurette on tracking the guns for god sake :lol

There's nothing wrong with acknowledging glaring continuity errors in a movie/ TV series. If nothing else, production fucks-ups are simply fun bits of trivia.

I know and understand that. I guess I just don't care about continuity errors. Some people get pretty worked up over them but I tend to let just about anything slide.

I dig 'em, especially on huge productions like this. It's funny when stuff slips through the cracks, especially when the crew is usually so good at staying on top of these things. :lol

Jack: Do you really think all this is an accident -- that us, a group from our plane, ended up in my ICU, many with life-threatening injuries? Do you think we ended up in this place by coincidence -- especially, this place? We were brought here for a purpose, for a reason, all of us. Each one of us was brought here for a reason.

Locke: Brought here? And who brought us here, doc?

Jack: ... The Hospital.

It's be pretty funny if the hospital is jsut the island, relocated, and Jack's just working by himself. Everyone else in the hospital are ghosts he thinks are really workers/patients. christian is still there, behind the scenes. Same shit, different universe.
