Invalid Validation posted:It's all good you can like whichever season more just as long as you like the show. If you didn't like the show period then get the gently caress out and find a magic man to give you a hug. God, seriously. Now I know what it must have been like having a bunch of Lost haters around while during the first few seasons (I didn't start watching till mid-season 5). No wait, actually I already knew what it's like (see BSG threads in re: doctor thodt).

UmOk posted:It's hard to believe they did that many episodes and very little, if any, was filler. *ahem* the first half of season 3 would like a word with you. (ABC wouldn't commit to an end date, so the creators taught them a lesson by going hog-wild with filler. It worked. They got their date, and the remaining seasons were shorter and tighter, s6 issues notwithstanding.)

oliwan posted:Like i said before, i have an MA in literature, I'm an English teacher, i have lots of experience with listening to arguments about storytelling, thematics, etc. Please tell me why you think this was a good episode. Sounds like you could've just skipped the degree and let us commoners tell you what's what.

No but it can bend them and suck them down into a hole.

I agree. It's totally apples to oranges, but I think they're both great, though Lost was a little heavy-handed about it sometimes. I really appreciate the more subtle and sparing use of in The Leftovers.

It feels like they've set me (us) up with kinda knowing the general vein in which this all turns out (e.g. "What do we do now?" (i.e. "It was all bullshit wasn't it?"))... but knowing this show, and knowing there's one episode left, I'm hoping it's a total fake-out the likes of which we cannot even conceive and every drat thing we ever thought will be utterly turned on its mother loving ear.

Uhh, I don't wanna be that guy, but some of us avoid even episode titles for a reason.

Of course the finale would be mostly Nora-centric, and yeah nothing was really given away. Sorry. I've been awake for like 29 hours, which would have been nothing to me 20 years ago. But now? Feelin' pretty loopy. Again, sorry, and carry on! :salute:

Haha, YES! I should have realized there was a reason that tickled my fancy, and that is it. Not really a great movie, but absolutely worth watching once. Stewart is goddamned hilarious in it.
