I'm with TheAlbaniac in hoping that there was some sort of supernatural force at work here. I mean, it would be next to impossible to orchestrate getting all the selected people on the same plane at the same time and then manufacturing a mother of a storm that would cause the plane to crash on the island with only those that were selected actually surviving. And why this bunch?
Wasn't the entire point of the first season finale to demonstrate that Desmond's (former) station caused the plane to crash in the first place? As in, the first time he let it keep going without entering the numbers, it went crazy and brought them down?

Sounds familiar but without flashbacks I can't remember back that far. And you know how I hate flashbacks.
Did they explain the smoke beasts yet, too? I gotta start payin' more attention. :o

So, Dia's coming back around it would seem.
I'm finding that I enjoy the show a lot more now that I've dropped my expactations, and stopped following it other than watching once a week. Not that I was a mad blogger or anything before, but I no longer try to second guess and find all the clues and stuff.

Last few episodes have been good fun, and the story has panned out nicely imho. Plus Locke is showing himself to be the utter bastard he really is, but I still love him.

I hope he continues on this course. I've been waiting for a main character to turn 'Other' for a while now.

That's an understatement after tonight's episode. Locke pretty much cemented the fact that he's a truly selfish, self-serving sonofabitch with no hope of redemption. It was definitely interesting seeing how Locke ended up in a wheelchair though: I thought he'd been in a car accident. As far as Daddy ending up on the island - welllll - that was a
little far-fetched and a tad too predictable imo, but it'll be interesting to see if Locke finally kills him (well
I would if I were him). Can't wait to get a look at this box Ben-the-Ultimate-Bastard keeps talking about. Just had a thought: what if Locke is so in touch with the island that he has a certain amount of control over it? If so, then I feel sorry for everybody else.
So I've come to the conclusion that Ben is the anti-Christ and needs to die, Jack is a wimpy washrag who deserves to be locked up again - indefinitely, Juliet is lying bitch ('kay, so we already knew that) who needs to have that smug little smirk wiped off her face in a very painful manner, and Kate is just a crybaby slut who can't make up her mind between Jack or Sawyer and needs a good hard kick in the ass.
At least Sawyer's up front about the fact that he's an asshole.
Great. I just saw next week's previews.
Somebody's gonna die. Any bets or speculation?
It sure looked like Sun whacked Sawyer with something and then started burying him, didn't it? I mean, for a minute there she looked absolutely evil.It's starting to get interesting again.
(I don't
even wanna hear it RBJ.)

Actually the last two episodes make me want to think they're not just pulling stuff out of their asses. At least they've had a bit more of that original Lost vibe to them.

The "box" has to be the smoke monster that seems to take the form of a person's memories. It fits aptly with Ben's description, others on the island have experienced it, and it explains what we just saw at the end of this episode.
Anyways, a gripping episode and very Lost. Maybe the bandwagon haters will finally shut up with their annoying pretend threats to stop watching the show (oh no a filler episode, those were never there before rite)

He may be selfish but at least he has some insight into the freaky side of the island. Everyone else is so oblivious.

True dat, Elizabeth Mitchell was also perfect in a similar role of a scary and sexy [SPOILER]pedophile[/SPOILER] in Running Scared.
One Lost fansite had some interesting (
http://darkufo.blogspot.com/2007/03/sezon-tumanov-season-of-fogs.html) info on a Russian book "SEZON TUMANOV - Season of the Fogs" that shares quite a lot similarities between Lost, sadly it hasn't been translated to English.
[SPOILER]
1) A group of 14 students disappear on the planet Reana.
2) Rotanov, an inspector, who was sent to find the students, finds out that there are people living on the planet who no one knew about called "The Singularities".
3) The planet has a changeable electromagnetic field.
4) From time to time the electromagnet falls into time gaps and when it comes back to the normal time it brings something back with it.
5) Inspector Rotanov finds out that "The Singularities" were known for kidnapping kids.
6) Rotanov finds out that the planet was an alien-experiment that failed. So after the aliens left, the mechanism for time-traveling has changed the electromagnetic field of the planet.
7) On the planet they have "Seasons of Fog", The SEZON TUMANOV. These are crawling shapes of grey smokes, which are capturing the people, putting them to sleep or turning them into "The Singularities".
8) The people are protecting themselves by building underground hatches with hard doors.
[/SPOILER]
