I've come to the (perhaps mistaken) conclusion that the people who feel cheated by the lack of "answers" to the "mysteries" think that Lost was a game, a mystery game.  Like Clue or Silent Hill.  It wasn't.  It was a tv show.  The mysteries were not mysteries, they were quirks to show that the program was dealing with things not dealt with in most standard dramas.

This is at least partially correct. I was viewing it as a game, and I was doing pretty good until I realized that it wasn't. Although, the more I think about it, the less dissapointed I am with it.

Bump.

There's going to be an empty hole in the TV world this winter/spring without a new season of LOST.

Nonsense.  Steven Tyler and JLo are the new judges on American Idol!

Get rid of Tyler, put Michael Emerson in as judge.  That is, Michael Emerson in charcter as Benjamin Linus. 

THAT would be some good TV.

But seriously, somebody needs to put that guy in a TV show or a movie or something.  I think my interest in Lost may have eventually waned had they not introduced his character.

SACRILIGE!!!!  You can never get rid of Steven Tyler, he is a demi-god and must be given his due.  Remember the original albums RWHN, the old stuff, the good stuff, the music that changed peoples lives.

Remember Aerosmith, Get Your Wings, Toys in the Attic and Rocks?

Remember "I Don't Wanna Miss a Thing"?  And all of those songs in the 90s that were only memorable because Alicia Sliverstone was prancing around in the videos?  In fact, they are so memorable, I can't remember any of the song titles.  I think they were "Crazy", "Sleepy", "Mopey" something like that.

BAH those were imposters....  The real Aerosmith was in extended rehab!!!  :wink:

I won't argue their later shit sucked gigantic ass, but their early stuff, man you have to give that credit!!!  I mean look at Metallica's newer shit?  

It seems many groups go through a dogpile stage in their later careers....

I'm not a huge Aerosmith fan so I'm a bit biased.  I think they have like 3 songs that I like. 

And don't even get me started on Metallica.  I'd like to think Cliff Burton still being alive would have prevented their musical atrocities of the 90s.

I can understand that, you are a bit young for Aerosmith to have had a huge impact on you!  Trust me, their early shit is awesome!!!

As for Metallica, I think we have always agreed on them.  That's why I used them as an example!!!   :wink:
