re: Started Watching Lost and Love It So Far *FINISHED IT*

Watched episodes 14-16 last night of season 1. I started to post something last night about it but decided to sleep on it. Here are some thoughts/questions.

Minor spoilers below.


1. Still getting tired of the Michael/Walt stuff. I understand why Michael is so protective of him now but geez let the kid learn his lesson which he may have with the polar bear.
2. What the hell is the hatch in the ground?
3. First thing I thought of with Boone and Shannon was why are none of the men trying to get close to Shannon, then Sayid came along. Second thought was "Dude you kissed your sister" - Joe Dirt
4. I'm 99% sure Jin speaks English and I think that may be explored in the next episode.
5. Why the hell are they not out looking for Rousseau to get answers?
6. What was the purpose of the compass not facing North? Is it just to add more eeriness to the island?
