It must be a blooper

The city is located near lagoons and big rivers... Just look at Rousseau's island map on Lostpedia.

it defo was a continuity error, i recall discussing this till i was blue in the face on lostpedia in the good old days ahhhh, what i wouldnt give to discuss the continuity on lost for 5 hours these days. Good night.

There has to be two smoke monsters. When Frank and Sun go to the docks and you *clearly* hear the smoke monster noises and we see Christian pop up, the MIB is still on the other island (can't move across water either) and comes with Ben to the docks.

I try to watch old eps to see if the writers have stayed with continuity throughout the series, and so far so good (mostly), but I wanna see where they're going with this whole "The Island is a CORK to HELL" idea. Dunno yet. So really delving into little things, for me, is only the tip of the iceberg. I wanna get to the end first, then analyze and tear it up lol

Great vid! All your various reasons in the end as to how Sun and Frank got to the lake cracked me up!
-
lol, nice video :)

He said it "leads directly to a town"... he never said it's right BY a town. And it's not a lake, it's a lagoon.
I think it's just confusing camera work... they cut directly from the start of their journey to their arrival in the town. Had they done a slower fade-out / fade-in, then it would have better expressed the passage of time it took for them to walk.
-
maybe they dont travel to and from the island with a submarine :/ hmmm
-
what i wanna know is why they gotta take a sedative thing y when they go on the sub
Are we really trying to make sense of this, really?!!! Come on now, it's an island that has a smoke monster and that is just the tip. Let's just wait until all is revealed then we can tear it to shreads. Until then let's just enjoy the ride, shall we ;)

Don't take it too serious. :o)
For me these regards are part of the LOST-fun. And I think, sometimes it's actually wanted, that the people pay attention to details like maps and other hints.
In episode 5.12 we can see, that John and Ben indeed need about an hour to get from this dock to the dharma-town: They start their walk before sunset and reach the town at night.
So Sun and Lapidus must also have negotiated the mountain to get to dharmatown. this would be an explanation. :o)

remember though in episode 5.09 Dr Chang asks who jacks shuttle driver was so maybe they had it a long way in and the others just lived there without shuttle drivers so it would probably be a long way for the others but not dharma

Hmmm, but didn't John bring Miles to a boathouse within minutes in Season 4? In that scene he put a hand grenade in Miles' mouth. So there has to be a lake too or not? Would John have brought Miles down to the coast for that? Why so circuitous?
