I loved last night's episode, but I was a little ticked that we see how the Black Rock gets in the middle of the Island and the Statue gets crushed the same way. Personally I would have liked a different scenario for the statue being crushed by a boat in a storm. I know it was a violent storm that whipped up suddenly from a calm day as we see the boat approaching in The Incident, but they could have done better than that.

lol!! i dont think it skitted along the jungle to end where it did. i still think there has to be something more to it than that. i posted elsewhere i like the idea of it being dragged along a bit too.
I felt the same way even more so when I watched it the 2nd time. But as long as they don't short-cut/randomize or deux ex machina - us in the end, then I'll give em a pass on this one and just accept that these are no longer unknowns.

Whatever, people just got to find something to complain about. Last night's episode was a little different than what people expected, but nonetheless last night's episode was a landmark in the story of Lost. And by the way, did you not think that the boat we saw in "The Incident" isn't the Black Rock but another boat?
That was a BIG wave. At least one hundred feet tall. There is no reason to expect that they will tell us anything else about this situation so we're all just going to have to make up our minds and live with that answer.
I'm happy with it being as mundane as a giant wave.
The point of the statue breaking was to give us part of our timeline, so now we know for sure that one of the time jumps that our losties made took them to a point in time before the BR landed.
Other than that, there really isn't much to be made of this situation.
It was a bit **** all right, and a bit plain, but as someone else said, as long as they don't continue to kill two birds with ****ty stones, I don't mind.
Well I thought that was cool, and liked it very much. IMO, it's better if they merge events like that, instead of giving separate storylines for each. Perhaps they planned it all along, perhaps the story just fell into place on its own. As someone who writes, I can very much appreciate the latter.
To me it makes sense, a tsunami would do both, it would wash a ship inland and it would destroy any tall structures in it's path.
Of all the questions about the statue, how it was destroyed wasn't the biggest for me. Who built it, why and why does it only have 4 toes is what I want to know.
Hopefully they answer those questions later in the season.
