There was…an incident

I’ll be watching the Lost finale pretty soon, so I’m going to make some predictions, if you’re going to make any comments, please leave ‘em spoiler free for a few hours.

Either Jin or Sayid will die in the finale. Sayid’s story is easily over by now, and after Sun & Jin reunite there’s a possibility that he could die. Darlton have said that the death in the finale, will be “reminiscent of Charlie’s death”, and I know people that are still torn up by that, so I’m not sure that they can top the emotion that some people felt to his death with those two characters, but I think they will be able to top it with:

107876_D_0892Juliet has become a good character over the past two seasons. Silently snuck in during season three, she wasn’t liked initially, but avoided a Nikki/Paulo situation by allying herself with Jack, and now she’s allied with Sawyer. Suliet (the Sawyer & Juliet relationship) has been fitting during the season, and I was glad that she has come in to her own as a character. Unfortunately it does remind me of Charlie, wherein I disliked his character starting around season three and then Desmond said he’d die, and I was intrigued and then saddened when he did drown. Don’t let Juliet die.

Onwards to people’s plans – Jack’s plan first:

jughead Jack plans to detonate Jughead, but as we’ve seen in the trailers, he only needs a small part of it in order to get the job done. He plans to follow Faraday’s instructions from his journal and stop Oceanic Flight 815 from crashing. Would this erase all the stuff they’ve been through on The Island? I don’t think so. No matter what happens, it’s your present. Even if they end back up on the plane and don’t crash, he’ll still remember everything that happened there. Jack’s plan will not work.

I’m disappointed that the reason he came back to The Island seems to be for Kate. I’m not a big shipping fan, maybe some people still appreciate Jate & Skate, but I’m not one of them. I was fed up of it around the middle of season three. Though I think Jack’s plan won’t work, something will happen with Jack and co. to cause The Incident. I’m just not sure what.

Now, on to Locke’s plan:

jacobTo kill Jacob. WHAT?! Can you even kill Jacob? As we saw, Locke seems to be the only person who has ever truly seen Jacob, yet he is assigning Ben the task of killing him. My friend @benjirino thinks that by “killing” Jacob, it may instead free him from where he is trapped, as he asked Locke to “help me”.

However, Richard seems to be reacting a little strange in a trailer for the episode, claiming that there can only be “one leader of The Island”  so whether it allows whoever kills Jacob to become the new leader of The Island or if it allows them to take Richard’s position of “advisor” which he’s held for a very, very long time. Locke’s plan will succeed.

I know the episode is going to be amazing, and I only have a few more hours to wait and see it.

Lost on Twitter


As some of you are well aware I'm a big fan of the show Lost, and a prominent user of Twitter. The two seem to have intermingled a lot lately though, with people posting as characters or organisations from the show. In following them, you can enter an alternate reality, which some users play very well. You might be interested in following some of them, so I'm going to 'showcase' the best ones.

Let's begin with various versions of The Island's leading surgeon: Jack Shephard


-
Jack Shephard
This is an "Oceanic Six" account from the folks over at SpoilerTV forums. Not sure who runs it, but have a check around and you can find out. Keeps updated too.

- Jack Shepard
A fairly recent account, but the use of hashtags puts me off. Seems to be run by the same bunch of people who run an account called @The_Island.

There's two more but I wouldn't bother with either one of those. One has only two updates, and the other one may be a real person called Jack Shephard.

Now on to another main character, another of the infamous love triangle on the show: Kate Austen
- Kate Austen
Suprisingly there is only one Kate on Twitter, this is another one from the people at The_Island. This account seems to post some strange stuff about selling Aaron on eBay and other odd bits, but as she's the only Kate (for the time being), you're kind of stuck with her.

Now, the last one in the triangle to get it out of the way (oh how I despise it), James Ford, also known as Sawyer.

- James "Sawyer" Ford
Errr...this account has no updates. Fair few followers though.
- James "Sawyer" Ford
This user has protected their updates, so I can't really see what's going on there.
- James "Sawyer" Ford
So, you're left with this account, with the use of hashtags again. Not the best choice again.

Now, on to the resident Iraqi of The Island, who will break your neck with his legs, Sayid Jarrah.

- Sayid Jarrah Only one Sayid Jarrah that I can see, and it's another Island hashtagger. I don't know, I feel like the hashtags take away from the alternate reality feel that fictional character accounts should try and put across.

Now, as Sawyer calls him, the "rotund" Hugo Reyes.

- Hugo "Hurley" Reyes This account is another SpoilerTV one and another well run one, though a bit slow in updates. - Hugo "Hurley" Reyes
This is another Island one, which apart from the strange background doesn't seem chuckle worthy.

One half of our Korean couple, and the guy who survives any kind of explosion, Jin-Soo Kwon.
- Jin-Soo Kwon
Whoever runs this obviously reads spoilers as there's a few name drops around of unseen characters, some Korean wouldn't go a miss, but otherwise it's okay.

Now, for his wife, Sun-Hwa Kwon.
- Sun-Hwa Kwon
Another Island account, and again the hashtags put me off, but that's just personal preference.
- Sun-Hwa Kwon Another account from SpoilerTV, and in character too, but a bit sparse with updates.

Recently deceased, then alive again John Locke also has an account.
- John Locke Again, a very out of character Island account. Not hating on whoever runs The Island, just irks me that they're out of character, when they're accounts for fictional characters in the first place.

Now, there's also one of my favourite characters, Desmond Hume there.

- Desmond Hume
Though not updated for about a month, and having the big promotional picture as the background, this account is not too bad.

Miscellanious
-
The Others
The bad, I mean good guys on the show. Some sillyness mixed in with all of this account. A very fun one to follow.

-
DHARMA Initiative
The people who built all the stations on The Island. Another fun account, may be the same person/group of people who runs The Others account.

Have I missed anyone off? Have you started a new account you'd like me to add? Comment and let me know.
