Well, I tried to search around and I haven't seen a poll for this question yet, so if you have a chance to respond, enquiring minds want to know, who do you think is going to die this season? Please feel free to comment as well.

Hmmm, so it looks like Boone is in the lead. Just bumping this back up to the top, but I wonder if the person who gets it will be wearing a red shirt ;)? Well, keep em coming, this is interesting...

I HOPE it's not Boone. I'm still thinking it's either Jack or Hurley.

Hehe, nice picture :)

girlspy15, we need to have Rose as a choice. *She isn't one of the big 14 but if there were to be a 15th
it would be her. *Also, she has had a lot of screen time and I think a good many fans are invested in her.


By the way, we need to have you on the collage! Post a picture at the following link or my e-mail and we will put you on the collage:

:angel:

Hey Hiram, Your right, I will add Rose.* ;)* About the picture, I'm afraid, I dont have any up of me on the Internet so I cant link it to anything.* I could email you one?

I picked Sayid because I have reliable sources. ;)

Reliable sources huh peanutbutter?

Ok, bumping this back up, cause enquiring minds still want to know...

hm...i think hurley...but i could be wrong tehehe

I think it's Boone. His character is one of the least developed and so far he's been made out to be somewhat incompetent. Out of all of the guys, he hasn't really done anything of value.

I don't know who but if I had my choice I would say Boone. That would upset me the least.

Has anyone been here to see what Kristen from EOnline says about everything?

Its spoilerish in her own way:
http://www.eonline.com/Gossip/Kristin/Trans/Archive2005/050214c.html

That's why I can't decide, I don't want to face who I really think will die.

I think it'll be Boone. He hasn't had a whole lot of story on the show. I'm least attached to him. Poor underdeveloped Boone.

If Sun is pregnant, Jin's a dead man. Characters that get good news die first. That will make us all cry.

Also, he is much swooned over... by another network (See hot Korean guy comment on Will and Grace). He's also a familiar prime time face (Baker in 24). We're going to see a lot more of him the rest of the season per TV Guide, which makes him well-featured. Oh, and Sun loves him. I think the word love is only mentioned when Sun and Jin are involved. So he's the only one that can be said to be well loved.

I think the smoke screen is that the audience swoons over and loves the character.

Am I the only one with this weird feeling that Sawyer is going to redeem himself by dying a heroic death? Maybe that would be too obvious. Well, let's look at the options:

JACK - Main character; too gimmicky. KATE - Again, main character; and Evie's kind of a breakout star now. CHARLIE - Too popular, and he already fake-died. LOCKE - He seems integral to the mystery of the show, and he's kind of a fan favorite. SAWYER - He's pretty popular, but there's my theory...... HURLEY - Another fan favorite, and the show's main source of comic relief. CLAIRE - She seems to be in a lot of danger most of the time, so it's entirely possible. BOONE - He's incompetent enough to get himself killed, but the writers may want to develop him further. SHANNON - It seemed likely enough until she fake-died as well. SAYID - Eh, he's noble enough to die tragically. Come to think of it, he's not that important to the show's central mystery (except the link to Rousseau), and now that he's in lurve...... MICHEAL - It would be a bit cruel to orphan Walt. Also, he's not developed enough. They wouldn't end a character without resolving their issues. WALT - What are you, sick? They're not going to kill a kid. (Or are they? ....Nah). SUN - I don't think they should knock off any of the few female characters, and she's not very developed. JIN - I can see him having an angsty death. But widowing his desperate housewife? ROSE - She's not a main character, and they don't wanna disappoint fans.

So.....crap, now I don't know what to think.

Ooh, my 'total time logged in' just passed 1 day! Woohoo! All that lurking finally paid off!

I had convinced myself it was Jack, then someone convinced me it would be Sayid.

But now someone else (on another thread. In Translation I think) has convinced me it will be Michael.
If Michael dies, yes it would be cruel to Walt, but not too cruel, I don't think Walt likes Michael much anyway. Plus, if Michael dies, Walt will likely run to Locke. Thus giving Locke full influence over Walt's special skills.

Hehe, yes I know what you all mean. Obviously, I dont want it to be Sawyer :(, but the array of spoiler info, makes it more confusing every day. I honestly think it could be any one of them, but the one person I keep coming back to is Boone, cause his issues are mostly resolved now, and since he's kindof a screwup, I could see him also doing something heroic to save everyone else and redeem himself. It's very hard one to call, and I'm sure the writers are on their backs laughing at all of our wild theories :lol:. But I still love the insight, so keep it going...

If Sawyer did die it would have to do with him saving somebody else. I want him to redeem himself, but I'm not ready to let him go.

Besides, I have to much fun in OutKasts and he is one of our main stars. lol

I voted for Sayid, but show after show he's kind of growing on me too.

My second guess is Claire because it always seems like somebody is out to get her. She is connected with Ethan's passing as well. Something could go wrong when she gives birth to her child, so it would make sense.

True dat Tarrish ;D.

Viva la Sawyer!

Why can't Danielle be one of the choices? That's my first choice.

People who are likely to die:
Danielle - almost certainly (in my mind) the writers will have to kill Danielle because she knows the answer to too many island mysteries i.e. what/where is the black rock, who is Alex, etc. If they don't kill her, she will have to continue to hide in the jungle and not communicate much with the survivors. It has been a pattern to destroy possible sources of information (pilot, transceiver, Ethan)
Claire - It would be cool if she died and her baby had to be "raised by another." That would seem pretty eerie, because the one thing the psychic had tried to prevent would come true. Also, she has no issues to resolve before killing her.
Charlie - they can't kill him until he has a religious epiphany (again, my opinion) and rediscovers his faith. Not this ep (Numbers), but he could be killed by the end of the season.


People who are safe (IMHO):
Jack, Kate, Sawyer - necessary to keep the shippers interested, maintain tension (the dullest thing I can think of is Jack with Kate and no Sawyer to interfere).
Rose - must find out what happened to her husband, or come to terms with his loss.
Walt - he has his own mystery, and I think it will be a while before everything about him is resolved.
Boone - either he will become competent through sheer tenacity (enduring a bewildering number of failures) or the humiliation will drive him to become a bad guy. I actually think there's a lot left to be done with that character.
Jin, Sun - again, too much to be resolved (why doesn't Jin want to start over anymore?).

Didn't Dom sign a contract that his character can't die? So wouldn't that put Charlie out of the list?

According to Spoilerfix.com, the person who dies is one of the main 14 cast members and it is a boy. So that eliminates Rose and the Frenchwoman as being the possible people to die along with the regular female cast members. It also said that the person dies because of a mistake that could not be remedied.

I believe the person to die will likely be someone whose character no longer has relevance to the storyline or anyone else on the island.

Likely suspects:

Boone--There is nowhere else for his character to go, especially now that Shannon has decided to move on with her life.

Jin-- In the last episode, it appeared the Jin had come to terms with his past and in order to do so, he separated himself from Sun. Since he is at peace, there is nothing else for him to do.

Michael-- Michael's main connection to this island is Walt. Since Michael wants to take Walt off the island and is rebuilding his raft, it is possible that he may be killed off accidentally by his son.

Walt-- Out of all the possible suspects, I would say that Walt is the least likely. He has powers that connect him to the island and he could prove to be a useful foil to Claire's perfect baby. However, he is a child and on an island full of adults, he just isn't that interesting. Besides, I get the feeling that Walt has evil powers.

Unlikely Suspects:

Jack--Too crucial to the storyline as being the savior of the island's residents. Besides, he is needed to keep the tension in the Kate-Sawyer-Jack storyline.

Sawyer--See above.

Sayid--His new relationship with Shannon kind of guarantees that he will live to the second season. Besides, his past training as a solider is much needed on the island.

Charlie--Will continue to redeem himself by becoming a father to Claire's baby.

Locke--Could you even imagine this show without Locke?

Not Sure:

Hurley--Hurley is on the cusp. While he is absolutely adorable and much needed on the island, is he relevant to the continuing storyline?

If I have to pick one, I'll say Hurley. I'll be sad if they kill Hurley, but those are the best people to kill, the ones who have endeared themselves to the audience.

Locke would be my second choice.

Didn't Dom sign a contract that his character can't die? So wouldn't that put Charlie out of the list?


I believe JJ said that "as long as Dom is coming out of his trailor, he has a spot on the island". So it's really up to Dom and not a contract.

PB101 is right! I read that quote as well in TVG, I think from JJA himself.

But, you never know. I have learned not to believe everything put out there in the press,
even if it is a direct quote from one of the top Creative Team members. It is all part of the
plan to keep the viewer coming back for more! To attempt to make us more paranoid than
we are already.

For example, I just today read an article saying it will definitely be one of the 14 main characters.
So, that eliminates Rose. Sorry girlspy15, I was wrong. Although, Rose could still die along
with one of the 14. She has been suspiciously absent lately. No one has said only one person of the,
what is it now 46 Oceanics will die. It could be that a few could go down at once! Makes the brain hurt
this late at night!

:angel:

I actually think Sayid is going to get killed. Not that I want to see him go, but I think he'll find out too much about the island and the writers will have him killed for the same reason they had Ethan killed, to prevent him from revealing too much information.

I have never really come out and said who I think..because I don't know.

I will say I am highly suspicious of one thing.

Its seems they are making Boone out ot be TOO incompentent and TOO clumsy and TOO ineffective. They are going out of their way to do so. They throw it in our face almost every episode.

In order to kill him off so we won't cry? That seems a bit too obvious.

I suspect that perhaps Locke dies and all his island power and guruness is somehow transferred to Boone so the he is now the the one with the inspirational stories, suddenly becomes the great white hunter and understands the makings of the psychedelic goop. ;)

Ian did say his character was in for some MAJOR changes. The most major thing I can think of is he goes from being ...Boone..to the person everyone depends on.

I suspect that perhaps Locke dies and all his island power and guruness is somehow transferred to Boone so the he is now the the one with the inspirational stories, suddenly becomes the great white hunter and understands the makings of the psychedelic goop.* ;)


That's what I've been thinking. I chalked it up to watching too much Carnivale.

I don't watch Carnivale so I don't have that excuse...

I came up with this one on my own. :laugh:

I think about it this way....what character, leaving the show, would not change the structure of the show?
If the show changes too much as a result, they'll lose fandom, and thats very bad news.
As it stands, there are certain elements that cannot be broken by the removal of a character:
the S-J-K love triangle
unresolved issues between Sun-Jin and Michael-Walt
Locke's Lockeiness...can't explain any better
Charlie and Claire's relationship (and claire's memory thing needs to be resolved)
Though I don't like to admit it, Sayid-Shannon, unless he were to sacrifice himself FOR her, but then boone would come in, and we'd be working backwards along the plotline
now who does that leave? Boone and Hurley, but Hurley is the comic relief, so i doubt he'd go either. anyways thats how I've reasoned it out. If anyone can follow my ramblings, feel free to pick it apart

I think Jack would be the most dramatic death because it would affect everyone.

Yeah, but that's the thing. It would effect the lostaways too much to the point where Charlie would have a tough time dealing with his death and Kate...............well, should I even go there lol. If you think she's pensive now, I wouldn't want to imagine what she would be like without Jack. I don't know about you, but I don't want to see the castaways moping around being sad because they lost their hero.

The big death has to matter :'( I want everyone to be as sad as I will be to lose any of the main cast :'(

I don't lol. What kind of show would that be if almost everyone is sad constantly?

They would get over it , but you need the pain to make the joy that much sweeter . Allowing this only applies to primetime television. :laugh:

Well, I don't think that Kate could "get over it" within a few episodes. She would be in a pit hole the whole season and I have to tell you, that would drive me nuts :-\

Maybe Kate is the one that kills Jack and she's happy because she has a history of killing the man she loves :lol2: :lol2: :P

Ummmm, I doubt it

I personally dont want anyone to die, but since I have my favorites, I can definately understand others not wanting to lose theirs. There is a possiblity that none of them will die, or that it's a really big twist. I definately think that the writers are capable of messing with us. For me, I second guess almost every day as to who I think it will be. I guess all we can do is hope for the best. They've brought us a great show this far, and I hope they wont dissapoint. LOL

Here's what Kristan on E! says:

She says it's not Dom. "But I can tell you that this person is well-loved, well-featured and, well, doomed. It is one of the 14 series regulars--one of the biggest characters--and the episode is guaranteed to make you bawl your ever-lovin' eyes out."

She later says that she isn't refering someone's size when she says "big."

"Basically, something catastrophic happens, and because someone lies about what happened, the victim ultimately can't be saved."

"When the big castmember dies off, Claire's baby is born--and Jack is not the one to deliver it."

"The ultimate reason for his death is the ultimate betrayal from someone he believes to be his trusted ally."

She does write that Dom is not the one to be killed.


Kristan is a trusted source.* Therefore she eliminates the women.* *And who has allies that they believe in?* Based on the BIGGEST male stars of the show here are some ally connections

Jack - Kate
Jack - Locke
Locke - Boone
Locke - Walt
Locke - Claire
Michael - Walt
Sayid - Shannon

Any other ally connections for one of the BIGGEST, well-loved and well-featured character? Based on these assumptions, I think we could eliminate Michael, Boone, Walt, and Jin.

I believe she covered by saying later, one of the beloved 10 men will die.

I JUST REALIZED SOMETHING!!! We're all forgetting Vincent!!!!
I know they say one of the 14, but maybe the dog will take someone's place as a main cast member just before dying

sorry, thats pretty inappropriate of me... you can all throw coconuts and bananas at me for that

Well after watching Numbers, I can't shake it out of my head that Hurley will not be able to shake his "bad luck" and follow suit after Sam Toomey. But let's hope that I am wrong!

I am afraid that Jack or Sayid will die!

I was afraid it was going to be Hurley because he feels bad about his bad luck.* The only way to stop it is death, and I thought he was going to try to kill himself to save the group.* Now, I'm thinking it isn't Hurley.

Jack, Sayid, and Sawyer seem to be on the danger list big time.* They are all well loved, and Jack/ Sawyer are featured a lot.* Sayid did have his own TV guide.* Then again so did Locke.

Wouldn't it be crazy if it wasn't a guy, and it was a big freakin' surprise at the end?* Like, they leaked out fake info to baffle us all.* That would suck.

i don't think that vincet would be the one to die. it is a good thought but from hearing a lot of other things it probably isn't him. i have been hearing a lot lately about bonne being the one, but i am still not sure.

I know Ian is well loved, and he hasn't been evolving that much lately. The question I have about Boone is, is he featured a lot? They said the one to go would be a well loved and featured character.

i don't think he is featured a lot, he is mostly in all the episodes, but it doesn't seem liek he is a big part. i may be wrong.

Boone does seem like he could be one of the people on the danger list, but for some reason I think it's one of the other guys.

it could be, btu he seems to be on the danger list a lot, i think.

i don't think that vincet would be the one to die. it is a good thought but from hearing a lot of other things it probably isn't him. i have been hearing a lot lately about bonne being the one, but i am still not sure.


Haha I was joking, it would take a pretty twisted writing team to make this happen. Sorry if anyone misunderstood me.

no it is fine, i was just saying what i thought.

Well, now that 18 is over, I feel Hurley is safe.

Boone seems too much like a decoy to me. I think they want us to think it's gonna be him and then kill someone bigger, like Sayid or something. Boone would be waste since he isn't well loved.

this is i think a spoiler so don't look if u don't want to find out who dies. i am not sure if it is right but i saw it in the spoiler section.

bonne

sorry i spelled boone wrong i meant to spell it the right way. by accident i pressed post before i could check.

Hehe, nice spoiler tag LostDreamer :lol2:

Does Jack really consider Locke an ally? I don't think Jack trusts Locke too much.

Does Jack really consider Locke an ally? I don't think Jack trusts Locke too much.


Locke DID save his life........

I really have no idea but if I had to pick, I'm probably leaning towards Sayid. I don't want him to die but the Shannon/Sayid romance seems to be going well and that makes me a little pessimistic about his fate. . .(for clarity, I'm not criticizing the romance but it's another variable that would affect the impact of Sayid's death).

Locke DID save his life........


I had forgotten about that! But what about the scene where Jack asks Charlie if he trust Locke. Charlie said, yes, but it didn't seem that Jack was so sure.

Locke has so many answers, and you want to trust him. He has been keeping quite a few things from the other lostaways though. It's hard to read Locke. We'll just have to wait and see what happens with that. I hope Locke doesn't get anybody killed. That would be sad. On the other hand I hope Locke doesn't get killed because of any other person as well.

Everybody thinks Locke could get Boone killed, but what if it was the other way around?

u are right locke is hard to read.

I'm afraid its going to be Sayid. :'( :'( :'(

I'm going to start crying now to get it out of my system

Here's what Kristen has to say this week. At least we know one person who isn't on the short list!

Is Locke really responsible for the male character's death?
Not directly, but this person dies because of something Locke has done.

Errr... whoa, I didn't see this topic at all. I'm sorry, but I created a duplicate... lol. Very sorry, guys!

Crazy spoiler. If it's true then my list went down to two people.

OK -- I have a massive resolution as to why I have chosen the way that I did, but seeing as how I'm actually having to work today at work --* :o I know, it's a horror I tell ya' -- I'm going to cheat. I posted this a few weeks ago when I tried to post on the Lost-Media forum. It was totally ignored. I guess it was just too long of a post for them to read...* ::). Anyway, it was a thread about all of Kristin from E!'s hints and clues, and as you will see, I don't trust her 100%.

Anyhoo - here goes it. And keep in mind this is just my opinion.* ;)
---
I just find it hard to believe that all of Kristin's clues are accurate. I suppose time will tell, but considering that the cast JUST found out not too long ago who it would be, I wouldn't be surprised at all if she was "leaked" some false information. She has been wrong before, and honestly her cat and mouse antics annoy me.

Personally, I think it comes down to who is expendable. And at this point that is a very hard thing to say. Actually, if it were to be one of the "BIG 6" as I like to call them --Jack, Kate, Sawyer, Locke, Sayid, and Charlie -- There would have to be significant reasons as to why and how it would propel the story. In the next category falls Walt, Hurley, Shannon, Sun, and Claire. And rounding out the list are Jin, Boone, and Michael.

In the "Big 6" we start with Jack, which everyone knows was supposed to die in the pilot episode. They kept him around, and I have no problem admitting that he is probably the "lead" but also still quite expendable. Plus, it would honestly shake up the whole group. Jack places his trust in too many people, and they all place there trust in him. And when people say "but he's the doctor" -- well, in my opinion, that makes him even more at risk. I mean, heaven forbid they actually have to survive without medical care -- OH, THE HORROR!

Kate isn't going anywhere - I don't think even if we weren't sure the victim would be a male that we would entertain that notion.

Sawyer - he is also completely out of the running. JJ loves this kind of dark character, plus he is one of the few that has been referenced as having more and more of a story later in the shows run -- by JJ and other PTB, unlike many others.

Locke could prove very interesting, because he knows so much more then everyone else on the island as well as all of us. But I also know from reading things from JJ and other higher ups that next year they are going to try to focus more on the people on the island and not so much on the mythology and mystery. Locke is so complex, weird and interesting - I really don't think it would be him, but like Jack - it would shake things up. The problem is that if you believe any of the spoilers, the person who buys does so because they are betrayed by someone they trust. Locke trusts no one.

Sayid - I keep seeing plenty to point to why it could be Sayid, but aside from the fact that he is my personal favorite character, I am going to just stick to a gut feeling on why he will stay alive. IMO, after the fiasco that FOX suffered over with the NAIR (National Association of Islamic Relations) for portraying an Islamic family as insane terrorists on "24" this season, it would not be very good to stir that pot right now. I know that there are alot of people on this board from all over the world, but I can tell you as an American - probably the most politically incorrect thing to do right now would be for one of the highest rated drama's to kill off one of the first and ONLY positive Iraqi characters we have seen in this OR any year. But that aside, I believe Sayid has much to tell, much to explore. He has ties to so many, and now with his blossoming romance with Shannon - which JJ is very pleased with, I just don't see them shooting holes in so much potential story.

Next we have Charlie. Now, I'm fixing to make some enemies here. But he is most definitely my least favorite character - and I refer to him as "the Hobbit" and only as the Hobbit amongst my friends. ((BTW - I'm a HUGE LoTR's nerd, and even like Dominique in that film, although I must admit that Merry, like Charlie just bugged me...)) Believe me when I tell you this is completely character driven dislike. But alas, even though I see him as a worthless junkie, I am smart enough to know he's not going anywhere because for some reason everybody loves him. I personally don't get it, but to each his own. I know some people hate my characters too, I'm all about speaking and being ready to defend you point of view. But all in all I believe his is safe, although he really shouldn't be...

In the middle of the stack we have Walt, Hurley, Sun, Shannon and Claire... Walt is safe b/c he's the kid and he's got the telekinesis thing going on. Hurley is another matter. I love Hurley, but as far as expendable goes, he's pretty much open. But he does provide that comic element that JJ loves to portray so much - thus will probably be his saving grace. Hurley is one of the most trusting on the island, at least on the surface - and that could be a problem, especially in the long run.

The remaining girls in the middle, Sun, Shannon and Claire are all pretty expendable - but also very interesting. I am still puzzled over how Claire "escaped" and had the amnesia that is suddenly "coming back " in dreams. I think she was brainwashed by "the Others". But this is pointless to speculate about b/c we know it's a male -- and even if we didn't, logically there are only 4 females out of the 14 main characters, and I don't think they even have entertained the motion of knockin' one of them off.

The last category belongs to Jin, Boone and Micheal. All pretty expendable. But I KNOW that Jin trusts no one -- and I also think that although he has always seemed the easy choice, he really isn't. Especially after last week I really look forward to more from Jin, but I have suspected as much all along. He was formed as the "patsy" b/c of the language and cultural differences, but proving that all wrong -- showing this characters depths should prove to be very interesting.

I must confess that not far behind my dislike for Charlie lies that of Michael. I view him as pretty much useless. And he does trust an awful lot of people, at least a little bit. He is cocky, he is arogant, he is obsessed with getting them OFF the island, and honestly I think that Walt would blossom without Michael to hamper him. If I had to hand pick anyone who I think would further the entire story without totally cracking the foundation of the show - Michael would be the one.

Unfortunately, I have to make my official guess Boone. Which hurts me, not because I love the character -- but because I LOVE ME SOME IAN SOMERHALDER! *sobs* He is just magically delicious! *sobs harder** I can see some story from Boone in the future - but as it sits now, he is just Locke's spider eating butt monkey (Buffy-ism). And I really don't see him breaking out of that after the vodoo that weirdo put on him either. Plus he explicitly trusts Locke, but we all know that when it does come down to the islands mystery's that Locke would do anything to keep the upper hand -- even hurt those around him... Also tying in to this latest thing from Kristin at E! -- Ian is a likely candidate to be dating some producers daughter chick.

So even though it would kill me, Boone is my official guess. I will miss Ian - but at least with this under his belt he could continue to move forward instead of just fading away again. Sorry that I tend to get long winded, but I think I covered all the points I wanted to make.

---
Ok -- so there it is. Nothing has really changed for me, although I am still very afraid for my Sayid and would be devistated and disappointed in TPTB if it did turn out to be him. Although I have never completely been convinced that Jack was safe either, and although I haven't seen Jack developed as he should be YET, I think that JJ and co. just can't resist the potential this love triangle with Jack, Kate and Sawyer they have going...

Now, none of you Charlie lovers kill me...* *:-* I mean no harm -- 'tis only on girls opinion.* 8)

I don't mind if people don't like Charlie as long as they are fair about it. Its the 'oh I get bad vibes from him' subjective kind of things that they try to pass off as fact or 'proof' that I dislike. I could just as easily say 'I'm getting bad vibes from Vincent and offer that up as 'proof'.! :lol2:)

I don't get where you say Claire is expendable? ??? They create this whole arc around here and her baby and expended a LOT of time and energy. . Do you honestly think they would just drop it?

Thanks elfdream for not roasting me for disagreeing with everyone about Charlie. Like I said I just have never been drawn to those kinds of characters that some other people find sympathetic or useful, I tend to go for the darker horse.

It is my opinion that Claire is completely expendable. The whole "raised by another" thing sets it up right there. What would that baby become if she weren't around? What all did the psychic "see" when he purposefully sent her on that flight? Was he sending her to Ethan and the gang or was he trying to insure that she would raise her baby? Alot of questions there. But alas, I think to this point the only thing going for Shannon is her change and growth that could come from the Shayid pairing. BUT, as I stated in my above post, I think the 4 women are completely safe.

My overall opinion hasn't change, but I did make my initial post before both "In Translation" and "Numbers" -- some small details have shifted, but I still go with Boone, all day long -- and again I :'( :'( :'(

Gotta agree things look dark for Boone and Claire could die giving birth .

I can see some story from Boone in the future - but as it sits now, he is just Locke's spider eating butt monkey (Buffy-ism). And I really don't see him breaking out of that after the vodoo that weirdo put on him either.

Hehe, Cin you crack me up :lol2:. I also have had my finger on Boone for quite some time, but I continue to second guess, cause I wonder if he will be the writers distraction for us, while someone less vulnerable get's the ax. I agree with the Kristin stuff as well. She tends to make sweeping statements, that are taken out of context, and I have heard her give false intel as well. I think it's a coin toss for me right now between Boone, Sayid, and Hurley.

I'm sooo worried for Hurley now, because of how Sam "ended" the curse. I don't wanna even think about it.

I can't wait to see the activity on this board after the season's finale. Whoever does end up dying it's going to be shocking. I was all for the Boone choice (not that I want him to die...I wanna see some action between him and Shannon), but now I'm not so sure.

They said the finale is going to be a tear jerker, and somebody will be betrayed by somebody they trust. That makes sense if it's Boone because he trusts Locke hard core. Then again we have many other links on the show. For instance Charlie and Claire, Michael and Walt, Kate and Sawyer, Jack and Kate, Sayid and Shannon....and so forth. I can't make up my mind anymore, and I don't want to think it's somebody so much that when it isn't them I'll be devastated. ;)

I'm worried for Hurley because of what happened to Sam too, but Hurley seems destined not to die....at least not now.

I think Kate will die before the series ends. She's a fugitive, she cant just go back to normal life that easily, and I dont think the writers/producers will have her continue to run from the law once they get off the island. (If they do)

Also, I've heard rumors that there's gonna be a Kate/Sawyer hookup. If the rumors are true, maybe her death will make Sawyer turn his life around.

Then again, Sawyer got picked up by the Aussie cops and was being deported, so he's technically wanted by the police as well. But something in me says the writers/producers arent going to kill him off.

Anyone else agree or disagree? Im just speculating...

I think a new poll should be started on this. This information is way old

okay, everyone reply with who they think and why, and i'll edit in a poll

Is there another thread on who we'd WANT to die next? That seems like a different question to me. Who do I think will die? Hmm....not sure...lots of girls have died lately so it seems like maybe Sayid or Jin or Hurley, or maybe Charlie. I've got to at least see this next episode to get an idea of how the characters are this season.

I'd say Charlie. He has nothing left for his character.

Superman, can i start a new poll on who we'd rather die next, or would that be against some rule/duplicate thread? just thought id ask first :-) thanks

there's already one in existence: http://www.thefuselage.com/Threaded/showthread.php?t=28877

if you want to edit the poll, let me know and i can reset it and/or change/modify/add characters

I think that poll is fine, just needs to have the characters who have died removed. And this poll just add all the main characters that are on the show now. Plus...Rose and Bernard. Thanks
