Mon, 15 Mar 2010 14:42:59 +0000

Sayid begins this week in the alterverse, getting out of a cab in front of a house in a typical suburban tropical locale. He approaches the front door with roses and is greeted with a smiling and obviously happy to see him Nadia... and her two kids and her husband. Who is also his brother.

Lost's Unnamed Philosphers

We have a quest writer today at sledgeweb. Ericd543 recongnizes that there are many obvious philosophy references in Lost. There are also many less obvious references. Ericd543 will examine it all after the break. Enjoy the article and please share your thoughts.

6x06: "Sundown" Ratings Review

Mon, 08 Mar 2010 14:13:40 +0000

Hey guys, it's JB here with a new weekly installment dealing with the ratings for the episodes. For a quick recap of what we've seen so far, let's take a look back at the first 5 episodes. Episodes 1 and 2, named "LA X," started the season off solidly. Many people noticed the poor CGI section to start off what had been touted as the greatest season premiere of the year. The idea of the alternate timeline (or flash-sideways, as some call it) threw many of us for a loop. Lots of people felt like TPTB (The Powers That Be, for the uninitiated) could have done better for a premiere. The average rating was just under 8, marking it lower than both the Season 5 premiere (8.35) and Season 4 premiere (8.46), although significantly higher than the Season 3 premiere (5.69).

Check the images out for yourself after the jump, and let us know what you think or find in the comments below! Special thanks to ericd543!

So... Remember that Goblet Dharma Film?

Mon, 01 Mar 2010 16:30:16 +0000

This final season is suppose to one that provides answers and begins wrapping up the many mysteries of the mythological universe of LOST. Indeed, we have been getting some answers, albeit some new questions as well - and, in that spirit of resolution, I think it is long past time to revisit an unsolved mystery from the blurry line of alternate reality media that emerged during Season Two as the mythology of LOST exploded on screen and off. In particular, I'd like to look back and address the issue of the Dharma Procedure Film for the Goblet Station, which surfaced in late March of 2006. More after the jump!

The Coconut Telegraph

Mon, 01 Mar 2010 15:34:09 +0000

The latest episode of The Coconut Telegraphy, a LOST fan podcast led by SWLS members JB, Jackii and Adam, that takes a second look at "Lighthouse" was recently released. This episode features yours truly as a special guest, for what its worth. I'm also happy to announce the The Coconut Telegraphy is now the official podcast of SWLS - you can access it using the PODCAST link at the top of the page in the navigation bar. Check it out and let us know what you think in the comments below. The official description for this episode follows: In this episode we discuss the 4th episode of season 6 of Lost, "The Substitute" with Jen, a.k.a. Nejsitsol on Sledgeweb. We go over the list of legible names on the cave ceiling, why Richard ran away like a little girl, and Taller Ghost Aaron/The Little Apparition Boy. Also, there's quite a bit of rambling. Shout-outs to certain SW members abound! Listen and find out if you caught our attention as much as The Substitute.

6x05: Images of Hurley's Arm

Wed, 24 Feb 2010 03:51:34 +0000

In The Lighthouse, Hurley is given a set of directions by Jacob in order to bring someone to the island. Hurley writes the directions on the arm, which apparently tell him to go to the lighthouse and turn the mirrors to a heading of 108. But, what exactly is written on his arm? Here are some images if you want to take a look - after the jump. Let us know what you see in the comments below.

6x05: The Lighthouse (Names and Numbers)

Wed, 24 Feb 2010 03:39:35 +0000

In 6x05, The Lighthouse, we got to see... a lighthouse. The numbers corresponding in degrees to the heading of the lighthouse were affiliated with names... many familiar, some not. This seems to be a match with the numbers seen in the cave in the last episode. Of course, we also see that a person's number can be dialed into and be observed from the lighthouse. Does it make any sense at all? Hmmmm.... no. Names, numbers and photos after the jump!

Help Wanted

Tue, 23 Feb 2010 23:10:45 +0000

The end is here! As Lost comes to a close, the management here at Sledgeweb's Lost ... Stuff have decided to do things a little differently than we have in the past. For 5 seasons, Sledgeweb's Lost ... Stuff has had the best fans in the whole Lostiverse and we finally think that it's time prove how much we have appreciated them. To thank you and to show our appreciation for that loyalty we have decided to open up the front page articles to the everyday users. What specifically does that mean? It means that no matter where you stand in the SWLS hierarchy, from the lowliest Red Shirt to the most acclaimed Dharma Workman (or Woman) you can submit an article that will be printed on the front page of the site. Now we have done this before in a smaller scale, usually by invitation, but this time it is open to all. So
Do you think that Lost is the telling of the final battle between good and evil/Heaven and Hell and that our beloved Losties are just pawns in the whole mess? If so, write it up.
Do you think that the whole Lost series is just a bad dream that Hurley is having and in the finale he will wake up in the institution still talking to Dave? If so, write it up.
Do you think that Ben Linus is actually the reincarnation of Mister Rogers and crashing Flight 815 was just an elaborate attempt to get new folks to the neighborhood? If so, write it up.
Remember that when it comes to Lost, there are no stupid theories, only stupid users. Just kidding. Anyway, if you have an idea for an article, write it up and submit it and we will post it (within reason).
All articles should be sumbitted via private message or email to either Thlaylirah, Judgish or Castaway Cayley. Please allow approximately 3-5 business days before posting. Any questions, please feel free to comment here or via PM. Thanks in advance and we look forward to what is on your mind.

Season 6 Finally Begins

Fri, 19 Feb 2010 05:26:07 +0000

We had to get through a two part season premier and a snoozer of a Kate centric episode, but the producers finally got the final season of Lost started! Season 6 started off very slow with little story progression and no answers. "The Substitute" had the feeling of a season premier with plot progression, great dialogue and answers. For the first time this year I got the sense of urgency that I was expecting from Lost's finale season.

Thanks to JMart for submitting these screencaps. Included are Helen's "Peace and Karma" shirt, the scales at the cave, and a capture showing a shot of Locke and his father hanging in Locke's cubicle (suggesting perhaps in this alternate timeline that Locke's father didn't push him out the window and cause his paralysis?). View the images after the jump. Give a shoutout to JMart in the comments!

6x03: Mystery Boy (young Jacob?)

Wed, 17 Feb 2010 03:43:59 +0000

LOST episode 6x03, The Substitute, introduces another island mystery. Locke, or... the entity appearing in the form of John Locke, sees the image of a young man in the jungle. Initially, it appears only unLocke can see this apparition. Later, however, it is revealed that Sawyer also sees the boy (whereas apparently Richard did not). In the second occurrence, unLocke chases the boy into the jungle... where he is warned, "you can't kill him". Is this young boy a new entity, or a reincarnated Jacob? An older Aaron? And what does he mean when he tells unLocke, "you can't kill him"? Also, why in the first encounter does the boy appear to have bloody arms? Images and video after the jump.

6x03: Jacob's List

Wed, 17 Feb 2010 03:33:29 +0000

In LOST 6x03, The Substitute, unLocke (Esau, The Man in Black, Smoke Monster, etc.) takes Sawyer to a beach front cave and reveals a list of names scribbled on the ceiling by Jacob. Many names are crossed out, and all are accompanied by a number. The names of six known Oceanic 815 survivors correspond to the six numbers (4, 8, 15, 16, 23, 42). Images and a breakdown of names after the jump.

6x03: "What Kate Does" Recap

Sat, 13 Feb 2010 20:42:55 +0000

A barefooted Lennon (Seriously? Barefoot? On cold stone floors and running around in the twigs and dirt outside? It hurts just to watch. I want to mail him some Birkenstocks.) Anyway, a barefooted Lennon runs (how does he not stub a toe or something? I wonder if he gets those tiny little cuts on the underside of his little toes. You know, the ones right in the crease where it bends over and you can't put a band aid on it?) to Dogen's... uh, office, I guess, to tell him Sayid's alive! And the fact that my mind is distracted with concern over this characters feet gives you some indication of how riveting I thought this episode was.
