Me watching Executive Decision back in the day and wondering how and when they were going to work pre-washed Steven Segal back in the plot after he got killed off in the first 5 minutes


I sat there for a minute after the end credits started rolling and was

Whuttttttt??!!!
Did you expect him to fly back out of the atmosphere Back into that plane?

I think the implication was there that he wasn’t coming back - falling out of the sky with no parachute and all that

Never watched Lost after season 1, so they finally made it off the island?

Spoiler

Up until this exact scene in the series (Which is the finale of season 3) Every scene that took place off the island were flashbacks. Watching this the first time you are obviously expecting it to be a flashback as well.

But you continue to watch and listen to what Kate and Jack says in suspense wondering whats actually going on and then it clicks that this is actually a "Flash Forward" to a future event that happens off the island. "We gotta go back" confirms that they made it off the island(how they did we still don't know at this point) and the wait for season 4 begins.

There's alot to say about the way Lost ended but this show will forever go down in history as one of the first "viral" shows. I honestly think this exact scene is one of the best "twists" in media. Just go look at some of the reactions. This is a genuine "WHAT THE fukk" moment.

and Hollywood was like “psyyyche, we’re just playing, she ain’t dead…just forget everything that happened”

Oh wowwww- thanks! And rep owed.

Was there really some type of monster thing on the island too? I heard a lot of chatter about the series back then but I wasn’t into it at the time.

Yea the smoke monster/What it actually is and it's origins are all explained by the end of the series.

Give it a watch sometime breh. Especially if it's your first time for season 2 and beyond. It's a much better bingewatch then it was week to week. And to this day still has some of my fav characters in any tv show (Ben/Locke)

I was thinking there was no way he was dead. shyt he had a 4-5 movie run where he was beating up masses of people without getting touched.

shyt the first time I even saw someone lay a finger on him was Marked for Death. Screwface got a jab in. For his efforts he got promptly thrown down a elevator shaft


Up until that movie he was damn near Indestructible. They even marketed the movie with him also so I damn sure did not think he would die in the first 5 minutes. I thought he had some kind of stealth parachute and would later pop up to help Kurt Russell. When the credits started rolling I was like hold up

I remember watching this episode in syndication during the 90s and I was shocked, so I can just imagine what the audience in the 70s felt like

I know. I’m playing with you . Lmao - I was surprised too. Classic Steven Segal - dude could take out the Italian mafia, gangs, yakuza but couldn’t survive falling through a plane portal, false advertising

I was going to post this, but I didn’t know if I would consider pre spoiler era
The Lost producers did a good job of keeping it under wraps
