I will never forgive Abrams for the eternal clusterfuck of plot betrayal that was Lost, and intend to express this by boycotting anything he has a hand in forever.

- gruseom 14y agoYour comment made me realize that the humor in mine must not have come through. Every time I use that tone online, I end up regretting it -- not that this one is a big deal, obviously, but the phenomenon is interesting. "The online comment" or even "the HN comment" is its own little genre.
- MartinCron 14y agoYeah. Humor on HN is a difficult thing. For the most part, I don't bother. There seems to be a different standard for top-level comments than for replies.
- csense 14y agoI've never personally watched Lost, but I've been told that in the first episode they explain the concept of a plane crash several times. "We were up there...and then the engine failed...and now, we're down here!" If this is an accurate characterization, it says a lot of things -- none of them favorable -- about the show, the director, and the audience.
- untog 14y agoYou've never watched, but been told what some characters apparently said in the first episode of a six season long show, and are happy to judge it on that basis?
- untog 14y agoAfter the first episode (and definitely after the first seasom) JJ Abrams had no involvement in Lost. You can blame Lindelof and Cuse if you hated Lost.
