The most controversial TV series from "Twin Peaks" is about to end his career Cathode and the creators of the invention, Jeffrey Lieber, JJ Abrams and Damon Lindelof, are faced with the arduous and thankless task of resolving all questions and, above all, all the contradictions of history after 5 years inventing the plot on the fly. And make no mistake, with any series the plot is invented on the fly. Obviously there are general guidelines plot but the audience reaction and tastes determine decisively the development of this script and "Lost" is no exception, as much as its creators insist that everything was designed from day one. But the problem is not that they are inventing the story about the march but unfortunately it shows a lot, with many unsolved riddles and contradictions unclear. The creators of the series have been repeated over and over again in this final season will tie the males and will solve all the mysteries of series. And I believe them. Why? Because they will use a formula that has worked to Christianity Pearl for two thousand years of history. And the solution to all the riddles of the island that have no logical explanation is this: "God's ways are inscrutable."
"Lost" became world famous for all the puzzles, riddles and surprises every week bitched to the survivors of a plane crash stranded on a desert island ("empty?" Ja, if more people in central New York at rush hour). From day one the strengths of the series have been some surprising twists and turns, some effects shots continuous dosing information through continuous flashbacks, a pseudo-religious atmosphere rather Manichean drinks primarily from Judeo-Christian mythology and, above all, a dozen cardboard characters rather topical (they can define each one with a sentence) but with much charisma (and some pretty goons / as). And it goes without saying that the series has a hardcore legion of believers who will defend tooth and nail against the infidels who dare to question the divine plan the creators of "Lost." And I, who am I? "A believer or an infidel? Ahem ... well more like a heretic, because although I started thinking (And if you do not believe, pica HERE) at the end of inconsistency and opportunism of the series have come to a end so great that it is no longer believed or the mother who bore her.
Season 1: who knows where
Nobody gave a cent for the series "surviving on a desert island? What is this, the contemporary version of Robinson Crusoe? Word of mouth was what promoted the show and it was usually a friend or family member that you recommended it. You you refused, of course, because the series did not look any good, but eventually someone will let the complete first season ... and saw a stretch, demanding more. The plot and characters you get caught in a simple and effective. Arise many unsolved mysteries as why people appear to him dead, what is that thing that kills people (I thought it was a giant monkey) or who are "others" (super-strong fans, like Ethan, he alone kidnaps Claire and hangs from a pine Charlie) or what makes a boat in the middle of the jungle or what's under the hatch. And these were not questions which the people engaged in the series, but the certainty that behind all the riddles was a "master plan" that would explain everything. Finally, in the series is many minds and many metaphysical homespun and it appears that the island is a magical place that tests anyone who lives there, rewarding the believers and cursing those who are not. We are the first deaths (such as Boone, who carried him partly because he slept with his sister) and a love triangle between Jake pease-Kate-Sawer, one of the biggest attractions of the series: which of the two beds will remain the freckled?
Season 2: Do not play with the gadgets
There are new characters, like Ana Lucia, failed attempt to create a rival for Kate to get the love of Jake Shepard (is funky Jake and Ana Lucia on the plane?). A whole metaphysics of the first season is joined by more scientific explanations, for example, that the island is the cane from Spain in electromagnetism and there are all supernatural characteristics. It is mentioned for the first time to the Dharma initiative and we see some of his videos explaining (namaste). We know more about the "other" (so it seems we are possessed by some "evil" and the thing is contagious) and we even see the statue of a giant foot with four toes. It first appears that Benjamin Linus is to be the leader of the band ("I had originally planned it? So why Russeau tortured him not to tell him where her daughter was?). But the highlight of the season is the key to be entered every 108 minutes on the computer in the hatch because if the world ends! (Because in the end did not introduce the key and the world did not end). Most notable is as removed from the medium to Michael and his son Walter (from one year to another the kid and he was leaving hairs in his mustache), false closing one of the most interesting patterns in the series "Walter had superpowers ?
Season 3: come visit the urbanization of the "other"
More new characters, like Juliet, another competitor Kate's love for Jake. finally discover who they really are "The Others" and what are its members and their motivations (with several contradictions under the arm and several plots unresolved, for example, why put Kate and Sawer to cut stones? What were building an airstrip or what?). Apparently now the others are very civilized with its houses and its amenities and half are not bad people. He even invented a submarine to get out and enter the island at will and have a network of spies throughout the world gathering information (very James Bond is all.) Also tell us what happened to the Dharma Initiative and the final gas. As the theme of the island was no more than yes, they look for external factors to animate the plot, so they invent an international group that wants to find the island and seize it. Jacob first appeared in Uncle Tom's Cabin. The first impression given is that it is the spirit of the island is a prisoner for any reason and need help. Also mushrooming special Dharma stations: Swan, lighthouse, Hydra, etc (great for selling T-shirts with different simbolito, Real Madrid plan). The season ends with a Flashforward, anticipating what would be next season.
Season 4: Back to the Future
Habemus writers strike and this season is shorter than previous ones. The creators of the series, seeing that he will be able to sustain interest for too long, announce that "Lost" will end in the sixth season. As past of the characters we already know by heart, are invented Flashforward, Quico, the story of the protagonists in the future once they have escaped the island. Some characters, like Jack Sheppard, lose their importance in the series and will not lift his head. Other new characters arise, for hache or be, are related to the island (like the guy who can talk to the dead, but then rectified and say you can only see what they thought the dead shortly before his death). Also arise the first time travel, announcing the leitmotif of the fifth season. For the first time we see Jacob and his companion in all its glory, advancing its importance in the future.
Season 5: Let's do the time warp again!! (Or "my time machine is out of batteries)
The beginning of the end. It is evident that there is no master plan behind the story and try to solve some mysteries through time travel (but only is to create more contradictions get difficult or impossible to solve.) Jacob becomes more important (taking it to the island) and the religious-metaphysical is imposed on the plot (and what you rondaré, brown). Apparently Jacob is God, and when I say I do not mean god god like Thor god of thunder, but God, the bearded white churches. And his companion seems to be the devil who is somehow trapped on the island. And apparently the island is also a testing ground where Jacob examines human nature. In this way all things that have no explanation can justify saying, "God's ways are inscrutable" and remain as wide (although this is conjecture, as neither Jacob nor the mystery of his true identity is still unresolved ) (although it appears that is God Almighty). The simplicity of the characters is more evident than ever and give them more complex attempts fail miserably, neither Sawer as head of security convinced the complex as Dharma and Jake is left puppet manipulated by Ben. The season ends with another surprising punch line but the exhaustion of ideas is impossible to hide.
Season 6: God or Devil and do you of who you are?
the last. Have now issued more than half of the episodes and some mysteries have been solved (in a bad way and generating, of course, many contradictions and unanswered questions.) We know what the numbers mean, we know why they are on the island, we know (or think we know) who is Jacob and his companion, even we know what the black smoke. And to top it, there are several groups of "others," Jacob now collects from around the world to come and live in their island (and without crashing the plane or anything). It is clear that have no more stories to tell and the characters do not give more, so the sleeve is removed from an alternate universe plan What if? without rhyme or where we see how they could have been the lives of the protagonists of the series if they had not crashed on the island. The oddest thing about this last season is that the creators of the series know that many fans are pissed at the lack of consistency and that, somehow, we lost the "faith" in it. Well, one of the characters on the island, the immortal Richard, also lost faith in mid-season, being a reflection of the fans we cagamos on the molars of JJ Abrams and company. But the tribute is tricky, because at the end Richard regains the faith (and we also recover "?). And speaking of Richard, has already discovered the mystery of his immortality: Jacob put his hand on the shoulder and said, "and you are immortal." Have you seen how good explanation? Viva theology, art of explaining everything without explaining anything!
The countdown continues and millions of viewers around the world are asking the same question "will be able to solve all the mysteries? In May we will know the answer (although it gives me no ...)
And apparently I'm not the only agnostic place and here I put some videos of you tube posted by Thrutgellmir JamonDelMar and where questions the official doctrine.
