Hello!

If you stumbled onto this thread then you already know, the original feature-length episodes of LOST currently streaming on Netflix and Hulu, are no longer feature length. They’ve all been cut in half, scenes were rearranged and small moments were cut for time. You would think this problem is exclusive to streaming, but unfortunately the Season 1-3 finales are also affected on the official Blu-rays.

In the case of the Season 3 finale, I’ve been chasing the original edit since the summer of 2007. My dad brought home the DVD and I quickly discovered the episode had been altered.

In the years since, I’ve done on again/off again edits to restore that episode to its original glory. But I was never 100% happy with the results. That’s where this all began. The goal of this project is to have 1080p HD versions of some of the best episodes of the show readily available to all.

In the past 2 years, I’ve made contact with another user on this site who may be the answer to finally finishing this project once and for all. The bad news, he’s been quite busy with other projects of his own. It could be some time before I’m able to complete these properly.

For now, this project is ON HOLD.
