More questions were answered in the official podcast of Lost Season 2 finale. The writers talked about some things in the finale that people werent sure of, and they revealed some good information about the upcoming Season 3 of Lost. Below is a short summary of what was talked about.
- Kelvin (Desmonds predecessor to pushing the buttons) was the commander that made Sayid torture his own general for information.
- The foot of the statue has been planned for a long time, and has archeological references. The writers said that the statue was there long before the Dharma Inniative ever began and was there long before any of the characters now on the island. The questions they left you with here are who built it? where is the rest of it? and What was the rest of it. The writers made reference to it possibly being some kind of dog, which could easily be tied in to the so far pointless Vincent.
- The phone call at the end to Pennellope. The guys were infact speaking Portugeus. The questions around that are when the guys said they had found it. What were they infact looking for? Did the electromagnetic annomoly allow the island to be visable for that breif moment. And is that why they were so worried about mising it again. The first time being when the plane crashed due to desmond not pushing the button in time. Is that what they meant when they said they had “found it” speaking of the island, or whatever the source of the electromagnetic force was. Why were they looking for it?
- The guy at the end speaking portuguese was not played by matthew fox (Jack).
- Season 3 will not show a single re-run as they have done in the previous 2 seasons. Instead, Season 3 will be shown straight through starting in Septemeber for 6 episodes untill November with a mini cliff hanger, and then off the air for 12 weeks, and back in the Spring for 17 straight episodes with no interuptions.
- The monster seen mainly in Season 1 will be back in Season 3. The reason it hasnt been an issue lately is that they havent gotten around to that story, focusing more on the hatch and The Others. The writers also made a comment of “There is a good chance we saw the monster but didnt realize it. By the end of Season 3 you will be able to realize what that means.” So that means we have allready seen the monster in some way. What could it have been?
- Nothing in Lost is shown untill its known how it will be resolved. So the writers arent just making things up as they go along each week.
- Why didnt Hurley attack micheal or show signs of anger when Michael admitted he killed Anna Lucia and Libby? The writers said that they felt it was better to write the story as the characters not really having a chance to react. They had no choice of going back to camp and that trying to go back was more doomed then continuing forward. Jack convinced them of the plan he and Sayid had and that hopefully he would come through for them.
- What will Season 3 of Lost focus on? Season 1 was about getting in the hatch, while Season 2 was about life inside the hatch. So whats next for Season 3? Now theres nothing to happen every 108 minutes now that Desmond turned the key. Season 3 will be about why The Others wanted Jack, Kate, and Sawyer and why were they on the list. Why was Hurley on the list? The writers say it was because The Others thought that he would be the best to deliver the message back to the camp. Season 3 will also reveal where The Others “home” is. This will be revealed in the first few episodes of the new season. Season 3 will also dive deeper into the relationships of the main characters with answers such as why Locke was in the wheel chair, what Jacks tattoos mean and why he has them, and Kates marriage. Since they said we will find out about why Locke was in the wheel chair this would mean that he and most likely Desmond did not die in whaterver happened at the hatch with the turn of the key. Also, too much information about Desmonds background were given not to bring him back as well.
Season 3 of Lost looks to be even better than the 1st two seasons. The first 2 seasons were all about settin the story up. Now that most of that has been taken care of, hopefully some answers will start becoming more clear about what is really going on on the Lost island, how all of the people are related to one another, and why they are there.
