Avian Gamers Network

It seems like there was a thread on this amazing show here a few months ago, but I couldn't find it.

Any other fans?

I just finished watching the first season. Oof. It's quite good. I'm very excited to see the Season Premiere come out on 21 September.

For those of you who are fans, check out: http://www.oceanic-air.com/

I just got the season on DVD. I litterally watched all 7 disks in 3 days!

My god is that girl hot...umm I mean. Wow, great show!

Seriously. Best network TV hands down. Locke is my favorite character.

Seriously, which girl. The asian girl is absolutely smoking and the scene when she was wading in the surf in a bikini was unbelievable. The other two female leads are also complete hotties too.

I believe the series has only just started over here. It seems interesting from what I've seen, My sister's quite into it.

I was thinking those guys would show up in the last episode to save the day or something... but I guess you're right that they're waiting 'till the next season.

It's funny how looking around at forums has everyone talking about aliens or somethings weird like that... but would aliens put Human Numbers on their portholes, I asks yas?

The Numbers are my favorite. It reminds me very much of the Dark Tower books by Stephen King.

I'm a huge fan of the show and I bought the DVD set too. It's neat to watch them all again and pick up things I missed. Especially the importance and ubiquity of the different numbers through out the series. The airport scenes alone are full of the numbers everywhere you look. Plus the DVD doesn't have commerical breaks every 8 minutes.

On that Oceanic website... anyone find the hidden text?

I did not start watching it tell the last few shows so can someone fill me on? I want to start watching it this season but I also want to have a clue as to whats going on. And whats with the numbers you all are talking about?

uhhhh....honestly there is WAY too much information to just fill someone in.

you will either have to rent the season, or have a long, long discussion with someone to appreciate it.

i love this show, i have not gotten around to watching the last 3 or 4 episodes yet. last one we watched was the death, if i remember correctly.

well I got nothing to do right now so type away...

The best summary of all episodes is here: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lost_%2820 ... _series%29

For details on any episode, check out: http://abc.go.com/primetime/lost/episod ... 05/18.html


Though, I'd recommend renting the DVD (or downloading it via BitTorrent), it's worth the effort.

The last 3 or 4 episodes are great. I love all the numbers... here's another good site where all the numbers play into things:

If you're a philosphy/history fan, You might like to read a bit about "John Locke" (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/John_Locke) who's ideas helped start America. by encouraging others to think for themselves.

Also, if you read chinese... Boone's shirt had the numbers meaning "84" on them.. 8 and 4...

Great episode tonight. I've gotten back into working out, and found that an hour on the treadmill goes by very fast when watching a show like this.

You know it's a good one when at the end of the show, you say "What the... no way!"

I certainly did not expect that much to be revealed about the hatch, that's for sure. Some tid bits:

The other person in the car wreck with Jack's fiance was Adam Rutherford. Shannon's father is dead and her last name is Rutherford. His time of death, as noted by the doctor, was 8:15.

The vial that Desmond was injecting had a label on it with CR 4-81516-23 42 on it.

If you found the hidden text at the oceanic-flights.com website, it may make more sense on how it "got there" given what's in the hatch.

I can't wait until next week!

Just got this in the mail:

Greeting from the Writer's Room of Lost!

As we careen wildly toward the midpoint of season two, the Writer's Room is working feverishly to continue to provide you with the kind of "Lost" thrills and spills to which you, the viewer, have grown accustomed. Sometimes, that includes changing things up a little bit...

...now, season two is already rife with change - new series regulars in the form of the tail section survivors (or "tailies" as we like to call them - as opposed to the "fusies" of the fuselage section), new mysteries (the Dharma initiative, the elusive Alvar Hanso, the mysterious Desmond), and new challenges - but some of our more daring experiments will come your way not just in the stories, but also in the way we choose to tell them.

During the November sweeps, you will not only be seeing the death of a major character (and we're not telling who it is here!), the tragedy will lead into one of the most unusual and compelling hours we have yet to produce. We won't spoil too much, but let's just say that the intense inside story of the tailies and their trials on the island will be told in a way that will surprise you - and those of you who have gotten used to "Lost's" method of telling stories in the present with flashbacks to the past are going to be thrown for what we hope is a fantastic thrill-ride of a loop on this one.

Beyond the November sweeps, "Lost" is going to continue to find new and exciting ways of telling stories on the island. One of the more thrilling developments going on around here is that director Darren Aronofsky - the daring visionary behind such films as "Pi" and "Requiem for a Dream" - as well as the upcoming Hugh Jackman/Rachel Weisz sci-fi drama "The Fountain" - has just signed up to direct an episode of "Lost..." and you can bet that the blend of the mystery and drama of "Lost" with the visually innovative style of this maverick filmmaker is going to make for some truly awesome television.

Interesting...but I am a strict Catonian: things must remain as they were!

I havent seen any episodes from this season yet as I dont have Cable but I just noticed that iTunes has them all for .99 cents per ep. I may Dload them and watch them.

I watched Season 1 like 3 times already.

Man, if you were mere weeks away from completing your degree with the few assignments you've left to hand in constituting 40% of the total marks for your entire degree, you wouldn't be spending much time in the game-dev forums either!


PS. Tried to post this a week ago but the server bugged out as I pressed post! Haven't logged in since then, too busy!

Well I hate the iTunes download. Becuase I do ot have the $39 Quicktie Pro I cannot play ful screen and you need to have my username and passowrd to play it. What a rip.

Evergamer, what is the total size of the files you have? I can host them on my server if they are not to bad.

Easiest way to get them is to get the Bittorrent client (google bittorrent) and then type "LOST" in the search box. Download the ones you want.... 300-400mb each.

Ok, my friend downloaded from the itunes site tonight for $1.99. The ep was of high quality and looked good on his lap top at about 2/3 of the screen size. I tried the bittorrent site and I keep getting a 27.9 Kb file that I can't open, not a 300 mb file that I can watch. What gives?

I love this show! Loved the first season, love this season!

Doh, I'm stuck in San Fran, and couldn't watch the show. I heard tonight's was one of the best ones yet. I'm trying to get it from iTunes, but they only have up to Episode 6.... argh.

If you haven't yet watched it or only saw a few episodes, get season 1 and watch it. Worth the effort.

I missed last night's show too. Rats!

I used to use it for stargate during the summer, but found it was typically slower than what could be obtained from The Pirate Bay (more seeds).
Of course having a pitiful upload speed doesn't help.
