In the following three hundred years, physicists, philosophers, and science fiction writers boldly inherited the "various possibilities of the world" of Gottfried Leibniz (German philosopher, mathematician 1646~1716) from different angles. theory. They went out to preserve the purpose of various scientific and academic theories, reintegrated them in different terms, and produced a lot of seemingly similar but they did have different opinions. Parallel worlds, diverse worlds, alternative reality, mirror reality, faith reality, pocket universes, bubble universe. And my favorite. "Small Island Universe", because it reminds me of an American drama, the one I want to write may use the theory of David Lewis (David Lewis1041~2001), the most important philosopher in this field.
Now, there is a group of nerds who believe that the "Island Universe" is real and exists somewhere, and it is the concrete "our world", where our own clone lives. Naturally, this kind of argument will cause very intense controversy. Where are these worlds? Can we find it? If so, can we contact them or go there? Is there only one "subject world" and the others are branches? Are these worlds in a timeline, based on our choices, are we constantly creating new worlds? If so, will the choices that our clone makes in other worlds create a world that appears? Who are those you anyway? Are you independent and separate individuals, or do you share the same consciousness and soul? Will you and the others end up with the same destiny despite experiencing different events under different circumstances? Or are you different in different situations? Yes? no? Who knows? Are there any of these claims related to Lost? ? ! ?
Maybe everything is related, maybe. . . Nothing. Maybe it's in the middle of the two. (Really a piece of nonsense) What
is certain: If you watched the premiere of Lost, you now know that the story structure of the mysterious final episode is a year in a parallel world. We now see two worlds: one is that the 815 never crashed; the other is to continue the story of Lost in the past five years, all the characters trapped in the past of the Dharma project have returned to the island in 2007. , In the timeline where Jacob-Fake Locke-Ben is located. Now I’m going to bring you what everyone wants to hear most: an interview with Carlton Cuse and Damon Lindelof, the producers of Lost.
Reporter: All the basic mysteries still exist in the sixth season. What is the black smoke? What is an island? Why is Richard not old? But there are new puzzles. How can they be like this? It's so unkind. When are they still puzzled.
Fortunately, all the definite answers given by the producer also provided some helpful information.
EW: When did the idea of flash-sideway and preparation for the sixth season to show us a world where the 815 never crashed? Why did you want to do it?
Damon Lindelof: The idea has been around for several years, and we know there will be a restart at the end of the time travel season. We know that the audience will think that we will either restart the story, or the hydrogen bomb will not work and the story will continue. We just thought, wouldn’t it be better for us to do both, and that’s the reason for this story now.
Carlton Cuse: We think that if there is only one choice, it will definitely not be satisfactory. Since the beginning of this show, the characters have started to flash back, telling different stories. In the sixth season, we want to continue this feeling, that is, even if the crash does not happen, the characters will still have intersections in their lives. Obviously, the biggest problem in this episode will be: how exactly the two lines overlap. However, for those who don’t look closely at the lost audience, this is a complete story. You can just look at the side flashing line and their respective lives. For those who have studied the show very deeply, you have to look at the side flash and flashback to see what is different, and you will have very interesting discoveries.
Lindelof: In the first few minutes of the season, you may see two unexpected scenes. One is that Desmond is in the non-technical one, and the other is that we saw a sunken island under the water outside the plane. We tried to tell everyone the basic question, "God bless the survivors of the 815, because they are too self-centered. They only thought of the impact that the detonation of the bomb would have on themselves-that is, the aircraft never They have never crashed. But they didn't stop and think, "If we did this in 1977, what kind of impact might it have?" So their entire lives will change drastically. In fact, the image of the island being sunk is to convey the message, "Keep your eyes open and look for unexpected differences." Some characters are still in Australia, and some are absent. Like Shannon's disappearance, Boone actually said he wanted to take her back. (The implication is that there was no success). And where are the characters Libby, Ana Lucia, and Eko that we haven't seen. These are all places worth thinking about. When will our role assume a "what if" script, that is, the possible impact of the explosion that they overlooked at the time of the change, and we are now embarking on this work.
EW: That means you definitely said that the explosion created this new timeline, or is this a mystery that will be revealed in the sixth season?
L: This is a mystery. A big fan.
C: We are really worried that this might make these episodes very difficult to understand. So let me make it clear: those characters are still the same characters, which is very important. Kate is also a fugitive. There may be some differences in the details of the story, but the basic things of this character will not change. If you are a little confused when you look at it, I suggest you only look at the line that flashes sideways. Although you need to know the world of side flash in the flash round, the narratives of some events are different. But this did not have a big impact on the narrative of this season. (I understand the meaning of this sentence is that the insider looks at the doorway, and the outsider just watches the excitement).
EW: Is there any connection between the world on the island and the world where the plane did not crash? Will they keep going in parallel, or will they converge, or will one of them disappear?
L: The biggest risk we took in this season is this problem. This is the ultimate puzzle of this season. In other words, what is the relationship between these two worlds, we will not use "alternative reality." Because if one of the things can be chosen, it means that the other is not real, or one is real, and the other Can selectively become the real world.
C: Your question is on the point. Have we created two timelines, will they disappear? Will they connect? Will they exist in parallel? Will they influence each other's handover, or will one stay on and the other to disappear? This is exactly the guess that everyone should appear at this stage.
L: But it requires patience. For such a long time, we have now taught the lost audience how to be patient, so when they start to understand the answers to some puzzles, questions about the relationship between the two worlds may have to be simmered slowly (slowly answer them) ).
Did the explosion cause the island to sink? Is there such a possibility that the characters on the sideline may be in a cycle of time, and the reason why they go back is to complete the task of detonating the bomb.
L: These problems will be solved in the play. Can you tell that the explosion of the bomb caused the island to sink? who knows? But we did see the foot of the idol. What did you think of when you saw that picture? It looks like New Otherton was built. This little clue may give you a hint of when the island sank. Start thinking about it here. In the next few episodes, there may be some characters who will discuss this issue. What we want to say is that the sixth season is not about time travel. It's about implications, consequences, and the causality of changing history. This season, weird storytelling is not our interest.
