LOST - Wednesday 11/9/05 {Spoilers for this ep and previous eps ONLY!}

[Crothian]

I don't see it that way. It's misdirection and is used all the time in TV and Movies- what you think you saw is not what you actually saw. It's what made The Sixth Sense a fun movie.

Sixth Sense I found an obvious movie. But the show uses so much misdirection already that I feel this is just too much.

I can understand that. I'm still enjoying it though.

OK, last screen shot of this for me, I'm convinced. Lightened screen shot of Shannon's killer:

I don't know if I would say killer just let, if she was stabbed...that just may be another bystander.

Sadyn will know the difference between a stab wound and a gun shot, so will Jack, so I say drama, fight, and misunderstanding for a bit.

True dat. Can't assume she's dead from the episode.

Some observations:

-Look at that screenshot a little closer. The shooter looks to me to be holding the gun in both hands. The left one over the right one. If you watch earlier in the ep Anna Lucia stands in that classic two handed grip a couple of times. The character has obviously handled a weapon before.

-I kind of saw the whole Shannon being shot by Anna thing coming. It was pretty obvious to me the dog and Walt were leading them toward the tail section group. I hate to say but I found this episode pretty predictable. Which is something I never usually say about Lost.

-Cindy was totally expendable. I had her pegged as either a red shirt or an other since we first saw her. As for Libby, that is an interesting theory that she might be a plant as well. Let's find out her last name and see what it anagrams out to.

I don't know - I'm not buying that's even a gun at all, just yet. Things look funny on camera sometimes, but this is all wrong in a number of ways.

1. You can see the first two knuckles of the hand (which seems to be folded into a fist, or at least have the fingers curled) - which means that if there was a gun in that hand, you should be able to also see some of the slide, and the "barrel" ought to be way farther to the left than it is in the picture.

2. It looks awkward as hell for a two-handed grip - I just tried, and I'm not physically able to reach the palm of my left hand with my right, when standing in that position, with the left elbow extended.

3. The thing projecting below the hand is clearly bent, which makes me think it's more likely to be a loop of fabric or a strap of some sort.

4. That's a lot of empty space between the inside of the elbow, the body, and what looks like it ought to be hip/upper leg area (or a shirt or something wrapped around the hips). If I had to guess, I'd say it was a woman.

You mean Sayid?

LOL, you guys crack me up. This is getting picked over like the Zapruder film. "Shannon fell back and to the left. Back and to the left. Back...and to the left."

Gawd I love the intarweb.

Well I times the gunshot to when the bullet hit. And using Sayid for a point of refrence I was able to accuratly calculate the distance between Shannon and "The Shooter". With the type of gun shown and knowing the muzzle velocity of the bullet I was able to determine there were 3!!! yes 3 gunman. They both shot from some grass knolls so to speak and both aimed in the exact same place. Now it is very hard to tell which bullet from what gunman on the grassy knoll actually killed Shannon.

It's one of the joys of working in a bio lab... You have a lot of time to kill when you're working late and some stupid procedure you're running needs an hour and a half of incubation time.
