That is terrible. What would Disney be thinking by putting that in a park. IMO it is something that would not stand the test of time. Keep Tom Sawyer Island, it's a classic.

I really hope not. I don't like LOST and I don't want to see it in the park. I liked Pirates Lair so I hope they keep it that way.

I liked it before they gave it the pirates make-over...

If they want to do LOST, save it for DHS and DCA.

Yes, this would be a stupid idea. Unless it goes to Hollywood Studios or California Adventure, they really need to think this over again.

Lame! It won't happen! However, if they stuck this at DHS, perhaps replacing the Honey I Shrunk The Kids playground - now we're talking!
No one's gloomy or complaining while the flatware's entertaining.

LOST - Well I have tried to follow it and I ended up well LOST. I think this is an adult thing and both Honey I shrunk the kids and Tom Sawyer Island are more for the younger age group. I think it would be silly to add an adult geared attraction at DHS since a ton of the park is geared for older kids/adults.

I agree. Not to mention, it's a giant playground! It's a place where parents can let their kids burn off some energy (and play a bit themselves too ;) ). What on earth would they do with a LOST theme anyway? If they had to do it, I agree with horizons1 and let it take the place of HISTK play area, but I don't think they should even go there.

Mindflipper...I'm with you...I liked TSI better before the pirates lair addition (although I do kind of like some of the photo ops). As long as they don't ever get rid of the bridge on barrels...my fave!

I tried to read summaries on the show and I'm still confused by it all. I decided to pass on watching it and stick with the shows I watch now.

I think one of the points to the show is to have the viewers confused. They want you stuck thinking "what's going on?" and leave you trying to solve the mystery and all the dangling questions it leaves each week (the show leaves you with more questions than answers to those questions).

Oh no! I really hope this does NOT happen! Not everyone likes the show Lost. I think this is a bad idea!

Relax, it's only a petition someone's circulated through the net - it doesn't mean Disney is actually thinking about it...

...then again, I thought the idea of Disney bringing back Captain Eo to Disneyland was too incredibly stupid to believe, and yet I was proven wrong there... :roll: :shock: :cry:

I'm not entirely sure that Lost fits with the Frontierland theme. I can't see it happening, anyway. Lost isn't *that* worthy of an attraction, plus with the last series of it about to begin, there's nothing to advertise after it's finished, so why bother?

NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!! Now that one of the worst ideas for a Disney park in a long time. Now that's saying something!
