LOST - Season Premiere Wednesday 9:00 PM EDT

I dont know if anyone noticed it, but I'm starting to think that "black mist" Is some kind of machine that runs along the ground, and the mist they saw was the exaust.

That wouldn't be a bad idea, though I think they've kind of blown it if they want to go with that, especially after the finale. Seeing Locke being dragged by the mist kind of takes the wind out of that theory.

Also, how to explain the pilot being dragged out of the plane? Plus, Locke looked up at the monster (or something) in his "first" episode.

This would be a good idea, though.

As for the song, that was none other than "Mama Cass" Elliot, recorded after she left the Mamas and the Papas (you know, "California Dreaming"?). The song in question is "Make your own kind of music".

Nice catch on the song title- my google-fu tells me it was first recorded in 1969. That plus the old school computer should seemingly place the hatch in the 70s, as guessed.

(BTW, found a good timeline of the Lost events here)

So, putting this together:

Shannon Rutherford's dad married Boone Carlisle's mom in 1992. Presuming that the Rutherford killed in the auto accident is her father, then that places the Jack/Desmond flashbacks during the mid to late 90s.

The two bodies that Jack found in the cave (Adam and Eve) were presumably there since the late 50s/early 60s, and the song on the record wasn't recorded until 1969. Which means that whoever has set up the hatch below ground presumably have been coming and going from the island for a long time, heedless of the survivors of previous accidents. Unless of course, Desmond brought it with him.

Anyone recognize what kind of computer was in the hatch? Obviously old, but it didn't look like an Apple that I could tell. Maybe an early IBM? The cursor looked really odd, too. Not like I remember from those old school apple IIs and all, or even from the old dummy terminals that were in use for a long time.

The real question is: does he have Oregon Trail on there?

We DIDNT see him dragged by the mist though. We saw the mist in the trees then we see him grabbed and pulled when the tree gets uprooted. We never actually see whats holding him....

Didn't we? I thought for sure there was a long sequence of him being dragged across the ground, with Kate chasing him and the mist pulling him. It's been a while since I've seen that scene, though, so I could be misremembering.

Man- I used to love that game! I'd totally forgotten about it, though!

Nah, Sundog. That's why he's been able to stay down there so long just fine.

I hope they kill more characters next year.

One of our local newspapers did a large article on Lost, and it reported that one cast member has been told that their character will die in season two.

Don't forget that Sayid did some exploring in season one on his own, and apparently didn't find a Club Med or a Hedonism on the island.

But Sayid only got as far as the Power line into the ocean. There is an awful lot more island to be scene.

After a really serious rewatch I posted my ideas over here.

Alot of the stuff before the rewatch tag is nothing new to anyone over here, after that is all me and start and stop with a HiDef rewatch.
