      I have a theory after watching this 3 times (love you mark), maybe the script was minimal and their only command was to complain about everything, thats why they contradict each other all the time, also why that one b$tch repeats her lines over and over, she is just winging it.
      I can see a show so up its on ass, thinking memory loss means hiding the script to the actors

    "Yeah, well, that sounds like too much hard work. We should just stay here, and spend days, maybe even weeks, building our own shelter and beds using only our bare hands.

      Even if you went with the "we both have one thing each", you could've very easily rewritten it from "super confrontational super hostile bitch" to "rather cautious reasonable person" (which seemed to have been the intent with KC) if you just went "yeah, we have two things. But I'll keep the knife."
      Ofc you would've to rewrite her from being a childmurdering psychopath who for no reason constantly calls Chase a bitch and goes after the rapist for zero reason, but that's just the dumpsterfire of a script on display.

      The worst part is that the name doesn't even make any sense. At first you think "Oh, it's called I-land because it's some sort of electronic/virtual place, right?". But then it later turns out the "i" means "1" because it's the first island. So in reality it's just a lame pun, but one that only works with the first island you build, because as soon as you make another one then it'll stop making sense.

    Ten minutes into the film, I noticed an odd occurrence where two female characters seemingly developed a sudden animosity towards each other, despite having no prior connection. It was puzzling because they had both awakened in an unfamiliar location and had no reason to harbor such hostility. It felt implausible that they would instantly despise one another without any logical basis. Additionally, another glaring issue was that these characters couldn't initially comprehend why they were wearing identical outfits, which seemed quite nonsensical. Moreover, it was evident that the writers neglected to consider basic everyday hygiene protocols. It's highly unlikely that one's breath would remain fresh in the morning, and strangely, the female characters appeared to have glossy lips and flawless skin as if they were wearing makeup. The series took a disappointing turn when it prematurely revealed that the characters were actually part of a simulated environment, thus robbing the viewers of the anticipation and satisfaction that would have been derived from future episodes.

Is it really possible that Netflix would have looked at this situation and said, "Good, here's your $2,000,000 per episode now run with it." Well, apparently they did, because according to the internet the series cost around $14 million total.

      @Dayspring It's not so much about real secrets but how important information did not propagate as they should within the survivors. I could be wrong but I think that this happened with the polar bear. So in S1E2 a polar bear is killed by a group of 6 and I am pretty sure that several episodes later (or even seasons), it is revealed that another character is not aware of the presence of polar bears on the island. I checked S1E3 and it seems that the group of 6 'forgets' to warn the other survivors about the presence of aggressive polar bears on the island.

    I live in Hawaii and use to work as an entertainer in Waikiki. Trust me, you can't just blow into a conch shell to make a sound. You actually have to blow into it like a trumpet. Which is difficult if you have never done it before.

    Here's my rewrite of The I-Land: as they begin starving they contemplate eating someone. Eventually, one of them kills themselves and so they eat that person. As they're all eating, some fireworks go off and they realize they're on a vacation hotspot, with hotels just over the hill

    I watched and read Lord of the Flies a number of times, so if present or future me wound up on an island with a conch, I'd blow it. When meeting the group of other people, I would also continually remind them that "I have the conch," a reference to Lord of the Flies that I would not expect the other islanders to "get". The fact that they did not get this reference would amuse me, and I would continue to make it, and I would get even louder with my "I HAVE THE CONCH!" bellows until they got tired of me, overwhelmed me, and beat me to death with the conch.

    My friends and I watched this show quite a while ago and we ended watching half of it mute, coming up with new lines on the spot and voice acting them. That was funny. Sad thing is that you could just watch it mute for a long while and when you turned on the sound again you wouldn't have missed a thing. Also our version of thr show was a lot more fun and also made more sense eventhough we were just going with random stuff.
