clicked on this just cuz i saw john locke, lost is by far my favorite show
same
+The Fragz shouldve deserved 1 not 2 but i cant change it :/
Same!
Lol same
+The Fragz lol same
After all these years, LOST still gets the attention. No wonder it is the best show ever
*Message to WatchMojo.*
The spoiler alerts at the beginnings are pointless.
Unless you list for WHICH shows/movies. _(Or announce the film title before the spoiler!)_
Breaking Bad Season 2: Jesse cooks breakfast for Jane. She wakes up, and Jesse is disappointed he didn't get to surprise her with breakfast in bed.
He says 'I was hoping you wouldn't wake up'. Jane says 'What, ever?'
There is more, few episodes before WW watch Jane die, Walter White is teatching someone to put the baby to sleep, putting in side position so he not sufocate in case of vomit
not to mention when Jane and Jesse are in the car and he says something romantic and she says: I think I just threw up in my mouth......... lol
I heard that season 2 is the only season of Breaking Bad that they wrote from start to finish. Makes sense that it had the most foreshadowing.
Not gonna mention that the teddy bear was half burnt up just like how gustavo frying died?
Fring*
+Tom Kelly the half messed up face is also brought back in the last season when Jesse was beat up on only half of his face
+Tom Kelly Glad I scrolled down, I was going to mention this as well.
+Tom Kelly Yeah its pretty clever that it was in fact foreshadowing many different things. Talk about symbology..
Wow I never realised that
The bigger Buffy foreshadowing was the shared dream with Faith at the end of season 3: "Miles to go, Little Miss Muffet counting down from 730." 730 is 365*2, or two years from that finale to the death of Buffy sacrificing herself to save Dawn.
I was thinking this as well! Much better foreshadowing in that scene.
Yeah
jmwild1 came here to say exactly this!
Yes I know, not just Little Miss Muffet but "be back before Dawn" in Restless, as well as the clock reading 7:30, and the crazy guy confronting Dawn and saying "curds and whey" in Real Me.
it all ties in, the 5/01 thing above too, not just for the rough date of Buffy's death but the number of days thing. 730 at the end of season 3, and down to 501 midway through season 4 in the body swap ep shown above, and Tara even notes that the clock is wrong in the Restless dream. The expiration thing should have been highlighted properly in the list, as they only pointed out one small element.
There was literally a countdown in HIMYM where numbers from 50 to 1 appear in the episode until Marvins death is finally revealed but you went with the thanksgiving scene as the foreshadowing??
Where's the countdown??
nvm, Googled it :P
I can't find it, link?
hidden numbers in backgrounds or props user by the characters
A better foreshadowing would be the 40 days speech of Ted from the Time Travelers episode. They basically revealed the ending of the show through that scene.
I clicked only because of Lost tbh
Yeah
The Jacob vs The Man in Black can't be considered foreshadowing since the writers admit Jacob's character didn't even exist in their until season 3 and MIB until season 5.
+Mary's Mind Me too XD
+Summer B Well, it's one great show. I hope you enjoy it.
Same lmfao
Arrested Development deserves top spot, if not for the foreshadowing of Buster losing his hand, then for countless other examples where the writers demonstrate they knew where they were going.
so true!!
That was the genius and the downfall of AD. Too many of the jokes were lost on a lot of people because they were often done subtly as either foreshadows or call backs either from the same episode or several episodes apart. Even now watching my DVD I catch new ones I'd missed before.
My Enemy's Enemy This video was only doing one example per show though, it wasn't about the quantity of foreshadowings.
Breaking Bad and Arrested Development both have various uses of foreshadowing, but I suppose they went with what is more interesting.
Look at Banner Michael!
The Wire is constantly overlooked, especially by Watchmojo, and it's another case here. One of the best foreshadowing scenes ever was when D'Angelo was teaching Wallace and Bodie how to play chess. Bodie keeps bringing up pawns (what he is considered that early in the season) and D'Angelo says that pawns are out of the game early, and that they get capped quick. When he says that, the camera pans to Wallace, who is later murdered early in the series because he was viewed as a useless pawn. Then Bodie says, "Unless they some smart ass pawns". Of those three characters, Bodie lived the longest. There's also D'Angelo mentioning how the king doesn't have to do much, and as you see Avon, the leader of the Barksdale organization, never gets any blood on his own hands, his soldiers do it for him and protect him, just like chess. There's even more foreshadowing that maybe wasn't done intentionally, like that fact that when Bodie was in the shootout that ultimately killed him, he was shooting diagonally, like how a pawn attacks, but I'm not sure if David Simon made that intentional or not. But the whole chess scene, especially the discussion of how pawns operate, was complete foreshadowing of things that would happen four seasons down the road
Not going to mention that Walter White is also wearing a fuzzy pink sweater or that Gus gets burnt like the teddy bear? As well as the black-and-white openings appear in the episodes "737" "Down" "Over" and "ABQ."
Watchmojo in 2025, " top ten actors looking surprisingly good while crying"
Haha funny joke
No stag killing a direwolf in the first episode of Game of Thrones? Or Tywin Lannister skinning a deer later in the season?
They were pretty good but they can't Include everything lol.
No
+Aseril Whats you favorite word?
+Peanut butter lover word up its word girl
+Sidney Adelaar I know right, they should have included at least one
Arrested development had so many great and subtle foreshadowings, that I think it's ridiculous that it only got an honorable mention
The whole show is just one big foreshadowing piece of irony
In The Simpsons double episode Who Shot Mr. Burns? ... In the first episode Mr. Burns reveals his plans and the whole crowd approach and glare at him.. He then mocks them and says "...but who here has the guts to stop me?"... After he says that each member of the crowd backs off and looks down at their feet... All except for Maggie - she continues to glare at him.
oh my god that's amazing Matt Groening you genius
For the pink teddy bear in breaking bad, it also foreshadows Gus frings death.
Half his body, right?
I was just about to comment this
Brucenatalee And the missing eye on the doll/Gus
In the end we can find a bit of that teddy bear in almost every character. The loss of one side to the other.
@@geekwhoeatsrice That's very true
The Futurama one isn't real foreshadowing. It's after the fact editing. The originally aired pilot episode did not have Nibbler's shadow. That was added into the DVD and Comedy Central rebroadcasts of the pilot after they made the time travel episode. Although certainly clever, it's more in line of a retcon than foreshadowing.
Thanks for the clarification. It never really seemed like it was planned out that way ahead.
every bit of research i've done suggests his shadow was there since original air date. Can you prove otherwise?
@@geminirox8635 it does. Having watched Futurama from the start, recording it on vhs, and having the dvds... it is not in fact and edit.
@@Irishhound than upload it why dont you
@@soolly357 i do not have the knowledge as to how you do that with a vhs.
isn't the teddy bear also a foreshadow to Gus' blown off face?
Yeah, the cold opens weren't exactly foreshadowing anything about the plane crash, basically just doing that "X Amount Of Time Earlier" thing.
The bear was extremely specific on foreshadowing Fring's demise. Walter caused the plane crash, he caused Fring too.
Don't forget about that Tiki Skull with half a face in Gale's apartment.
RageUnicorn not to mention the names of the episodes with those cold opens - "Seven Thirty Seven", "Down", "Over", "ABQ"
Double foreshadowing
Cant get over that the episode where Gus dies is called "Face Off"
lmao
That scene in How I Met Your Mother gets me every time. It's so well acted, Lily crying while trying to get through the news, and Marshalls "I'm not ready for This," just feels so genuine.
Wow, I never noticed that Ben camera thing...Neat. That was one sad episode.
i dont get it
1221kary he always carried his camera around, which means all the scenes he had no camera he wasn't really there. However it's so subtle you don't really notice.
He died in that episode and Cox is imaging him there to help him cope and to help himself learn to forgive and open himself to friends for help. It's a pretty sad episode especially for Scrubs,
that scrubs episode is probably the best sitcom episode of all time. also the leftovers is full of foreshadowing, its so well done^^
Nibbler's shadow is one of the best bits of foreshadowing in cartoon history.
I see a LOST (Locke) Thumbnail, I instantly watch! XD
ikr
The pink teddy bear was also a foreshadowing of Gus Frings fate. Teddy with a half burnt face, Gus with a half blown off face.
No Gravity Falls mystery wheel?
That show is so stupid.
No
+GingerTyPerior Is better the twin brother ones
+Josh Caswell That show may have been one of the best shows on TV. Saying it's stupid just implies that you haven't seen it.
+comb528491 Or that you have seen it, just harshly criticizing.
fun fact, there was equal foreshadowing for Xander being gay as there was for Willow... Joss Whedon originally wasn't sure which one would eventually actually be gay.
Supernatural, the first ever episode where there was a demon back in season 1, the one with the demon causing plane crashes. At one point in the episode Sam said to Dean that demons flinch at the name of God. Well the very first plane the stewardesses talked to the pilot addressing him by name and then the demon came in with black eyes; the pilot's first name was Chuck. The pilot Chuck also after surviving the first plane crash later crashed a small plane into a field in Nazareth. Later fast forward 5 seasons at the very start of season 5 as lucifer escapes from the cadge God rescues the boys to put them on another plane that's about to crash. Fast forward to season 11 and we find out who God had been hiding as the whole first 5 seasons.
Omg I love Supernatural and I never noticed that!!!
Gabriel Badwolf just a coincidence. They originally planned to never reveal God because it was supposed to end with Swan Song.
@@DenaL112 No, but they vaguely revealed "Chuck" was basically God at the end of season 5, I'm pretty sure they planned that the whole time even if you consider they didn't plan past Swan Song. Pretty sure he vanished at the end of season 5 in one last scene and also he was "the writer" of the cosmic events going on.
@@thehumanity0 Yeah, he vanished at the end of Swan Song. It never outright _said_ he was God but literally everything adds up to it. It was a fantastic example of "show, don't tell". I still get the shivers thinking about Chuck singing before revealing himself to Sam and Dean.
...I really feel like rewatching Supernatural now. Oh, oh! If you're a superfan and have a little extra money, they've designed a bracelet with custom charms! The charms are for a limited time and they be releasing them throughout the year. I got Cas's necktie and the Impala license plate.
You all can SAY that Chuck was meant to be God, but *in Swan Song* , they showed US, the viewer, how badly Chuck was unraveling. That isn't foreshadowing. It's a red herring.
I saw the Doctor and River and almost burst into tears :P
thats still my favorite episode with waters of mars following only a hair behind.
I can't believe they didn't use doctor who's bad wolf!
nor any other scene from Doctor Who, really and there is quite a bit of foreshadowing...next to Bad Wolf, there's Silence in the Library/Forest of the dead for example
I think the craziest foreshadowing was in the Pompeii episode where the soothsayer says to the doctor that “she is returning” talking about rose. And then turns to Donna and tells her “there is something on your back” talking about the episode later in the season Turn Left where a creature latches itself onto donnas back and forces her to not ever meet the doctor
IKR
You didn't mention how the titles of episodes 1,4,11 and 13 of the second season of Breaking Bad were each a word that when all four combined said "Seven-Thirty Seven Down Over ABQ"
Man, I miss LOST so much.
YaBoyPsycho
Dude same
LOST will be back someday. The number of streaming services and the need for content guarantees it
Ayyyyy physco you watched lost!
The lack of Doctor Who (River and the Doctor) is upsetting.
Another thing about the Marvin's death is that in that episode, there are different numbers hidden in plain sight all throughout the episode, starting at 50, and counting down to 0, when Marshall hears the bad news of his father's death.
More Breaking Bad foreshadowing.
Walt estimates he needs $737000 to put both of his kids through college, so starts making meth.
The plane that blew up was a 737.
I dont think you know what foreshadowing is
@@anejrdreybekk5968 lol
also, the episode titles where the bear is shown, when put together, read "737" "Down" "Over" "ABQ (Albuquerque)"
THANK YOU for mentioning Futurama, that one was SO good omg. When I re-watched the series I noticed the detail of the shadow in the pilot episode and I was amazed by the fact that little detail (as much as the fact Fry is his own grandfather) were something intented to have used later.
hold the door!
That would be number 1 if this list was made a few months later.
I just came here for Lost
Me too. And yet they missed a lot of the foreshadowing. Especially in the last season when everyone was telling Jack to let go.
"mad men was still in it's heyday in the 5th season..." uh mad men never left it's heyday. high quality from beginning to end.
Erm....the Buffy thing goes back further than that. Buffy and Faith have some kind of joint dream while they're both in a coma in season 3 (Episodes - Graduation Day 1&2) and Faith says "Little miss muffet counting down from 7-3-0". 730 or 2 years, a homeless man would refer to "curds and whey" in reference to Dawn, there would be another reference in the dream Faith has earlier in the episode WatchMojo referenced. So pay attention.
Woah. I'm a mass Buffy fan. I thought I knew near everything about the series. Thanks Mojo!
+Rainstorm Night Radio Ikr! I knew they foreshadowed her death in Graduation Day pt 2 and Restless, but I never caught that credit card thing. Cool :D
To be fair, you could do a top 10 just for Buffy.
True.
There are so many better instances of foreshadowing in Buffy than this expiration date.
Kaiser Kailer Ikr
Kaiser Kailer Absolutely. Dawn's appearance alone has several: Faith making the bed for "Little Miss Muffet" … Buffy's dream where Tara tells her to "be back before dawn". …
I think you could do X-files as well
One of my favourite foreshadowing events was in the UK programme Misfits, where every main character works out what their power is after a freak storm in the first episode, except for Nathan, who seemingly doesn't have one. He spends all season trying to figure it out, and he eventually gives up. By the end of the season, we end up assuming he doesn't adopt a power like the rest, and in the last episode he dies whilst saving all the other cast members. His friends respectfully bury his body, and hold a funeral. As they leave, the camera pans down to his body in the casket, where he suddenly wakes up, and we learn that all along he had the power of immortally, and is trapped underground alive.
But his power is hinted at in the intro of every episode, in a short clip where all the main protagonist's shadows are cast upon the floor. Each shadow exhibits a vague reference to each members powers, and one of the shadows (presumably Nathan's) just topples from vertical to horizontal.
And in a mid season episode, Curtis (another main cast character) manages to change the past with his time travel power to the point he never meets the rest of the group, and in this newly created timeline he passes by the community service where they all met, only to discover a memorial of them all dead, because he was never there to save them from a psychopath like he did in the first episode. Nathan then approaches the memorial from off screen, with visible injuries, and when Curtis asks him why he wasn't killed, he claims he doesn't know, and that paramedics claimed he was "practically dead when they found his body"
Such clever throwaway details to the answer of a question that burned through your mind throughout the whole first season, I love sly hints like that :)
Buster's hand in Arrested Development was fantastic. As was Oscar as his dad. Heck, the whole show is great.
Doctor who is the master of foreshadowing.
dont know if it count as foreshadowing but the face of bo reveal gave me goosebumps
yeah, holy shit. sooo good
That was seriously the best! I was a shocked little nine year old when they revealed that!
I thought the HIMYM one would have to do with the countdown to Marvin's death.
Why on Earth was Doctor Who's River Song not on here?!
IKR and they teased it in the beginning too
Chuck being god anyone?
George Wagner we all already knew that. It was well known before the reveal.
GRAVITY FALLS - STAN HAVING A TWIN.
Or the lithograph of Bill showing up for a split second at the end of the theme in every episode.
there was so much stuff that they missed in gravity falls
Thank you!!! I was waiting for that one!
the arrive of Dawn was foreshadowed multiple times on Buffy the Vampire Slayer
In Buffy the "little miss muffet counting down to 730", and "Be back before Dawn" in seasons three and four respectively, about season five, should've made the list instead.
+Denni Bryant Also during the same scene as the "Be back before Dawn" line, Buffy looks at a clock and the time says "7:30" and Tara says "That clock is all wrong" because it was no longer 730 days (2 years) until her death-- she only had 1 year left. I totally agree with you. If WM had included that foreshadowing instead, Buffy would have had the #1 spot on this list.
Lost's foreshadowing of the struggle between black and white was not completely revealed until the end of season five, with the first hint of it in an early episode of season one. That has to be one of the longest foreshadowing moments in this list! And it was definitely planned - you can see it throughout the show, but very subtly.
started tearing up from just the clip from scrubs... right in the feels
Top 10 moments from Lost please!
I thought the bear symbolized Gus as well
It did.
So much foreshadowing in HIMYM. love that show. Made me cry so much. Especially the finale
Breaking Bad has a TON of awesome foreshadowing. But the best foreshadowing is the New Hampshire license plate on the car Walt drove after he escaped to New Hampshire. It says LIVE FREE OR DIE, which is also the title of the first episode of the final season. It foreshadows the fates of the two main characters, because Jesse "Lives Free" and Walt "Dies." The most amazing/heartbreaking foreshadowing ever
season 1: "...and winter is coming"
season 6: winter comes
HELLOOO!?!?!?
Saw John Locke, clicked instantly
Futurama one was the best implementation in recent animation history. Well done Matt.
*considers rewatching Lost but knows how much of a commitment it is*
im a bit surprised honestly to have not seen Charmed on this list when Wyatt puts up the shield around Chris which kinda foreshadowed how that would be a huge plot point for one of the episodes where Wyatt's morality got twisted and that whole shield thing made sense as Chris could breach it cause the kid had read him evil up till after he was saved.
lol It wasn't just the credit card's expiration date. They had many hints over the five seasons showing Buffy was going to die. That was just ONE of them.
+bsbgirl85 I'm watching Buffy for the first time at the moment, but I have a sort of basic knowledge of some of the major plot points. The foreshadowing in that show is ridiculous and I love it. I always felt that the expiry on Joyce's card would have worked better as a foreshadow of her death though, not Buffy's.
I never thought of that, I agree it would of been better if they did that for Joyce. I can't think of all of them but another foreshadow was when Buffy and Faith talked to each other in that dream after she put Faith in a coma. Faith said something like "Little Miss Muppet counting down from 730," or something like that, showing that Buffy would die in 730 (or whatever number it was) days. I think they had hints in the S4 season finale episode, and a lot more in S5 as well.
bsbgirl85 Yeah there's been a LOT of hints towards Buffy dying, especially the entire episode revolving around how past slayers died (I'm currently in Season 5)
With the death of Marvin Erikson, it should have included the counting down seen throughout the episode. In the background, you can clearly see random objects counting down to the moment that Marvin's death is revealed. It's so cool to rewatch
I know so many people who didn't notice the countdown in that episode of How I Met Your Mother, but it haunted me until the conclusion. That was very well done.
(possible Walking Dead spoiler)
Two weeks ago in the walking dead when they were killing the saviors in their base Glenn found a wall of pictures of peoples faces that had been smashed in by Lucille, which is going to happen to him later in the season.
Also this was foreshadowed at the start of season 5 when they were in Terminus.
Nah they're not gonna do it like the comics my theory is Daryl is gonna die because 1 he's in movies tv shows and even a video game all in the makings and right now beside michone he is the closest to Rick... and Glenn already scared us multiple time ESPECIALLY last year with the fake death anyways if it's not Daryl I think it will be Abraham or Morgan either or negan gonna smash someone's head in! 😳
Really wondering why Fringe doesn't even get an honorable mention. :/
Watchmojo, maybe start putting a list of what shows or movies or games or whatever are going to be spoiled in the video and when. I know in videos like this spoilers are kind of a given, but it would be great to know if something I have yet to experience is gonna be spoiled in the video.
Really love your content, keep up the good work :)
When you rewatch Arrested Development you have to pay attention to everything because there is SO much foreshadowing, mostly for Buster losing his hand.
Like when he sits on the bench and covers the Army advertisement so all you see is "Arm Off."
no doctor who? that whole shows filled with foreshadowing
did you guys not catch the countdown from 60, or something like that, in the how I met your mother episode where Martin dies?
Did u not hear what they said at the start? They said only one foreshadowing.....not alll
I know this video came out before season 7, but in The Walking Dead there is some amazing foreshadowing of Glenn's death back in the 12th episode of season 6. When attacking the Saviors' compound, Glenn notices photographs stuck to the wall of various Lucille victims, all with their heads beaten in. The following season, not only does he die in the same fashion at the hands of Negan, but his photo is also given to Daryl by Dwight. He tragically becomes one of the very photos he earlier witnessed.
They should do another top 10 list of foreshadowing, but make it only about Lost. Because there's SO MUCH cool foreshadowing in lost they could have talked about.
i skipped to John Locke, then exited the video. why? because you cant tell me what i can and cant do.
I'm crying this comment is perfect!
No Steven universe O: when Ronaldo tells everyone the plot for the show and constantly brings them up and everything,??!?
No
+David Vondirharr God that show is fuckng gay
+Nightwing1526 no
+Randall Kenshin You're not wrong about that.
+Quinn Alexander lmao it's the net chill out
Babylon 5 has so much brilliant foreshadowing it could fill 2-3 of these videos. Seriously, watch the whole show a few times. In the first season it already foreshadows events for pretty much every later season of the show, and it keeps following that trend more and more in later seasons. Its the best executed foreshadowing I've ever seen on any scifi show or tv show in general.
Gravity Falls - The time traveller can be seen multiple times picking things up until his episode where he has to go through time picking up things left by the main two characters.
The thing is the bear appeared to be a future foreshadowing with Gus though... half burned face.
Before I start this video - if Buffy's mom's death isn't in the Top 5 of this list, I'll be pissed off.
No, but they include Buffy's death but neglect to mention that was also originally the end of the show before it switched networks
Wow the HIMYM one I didn't know about.
The Lost one was good. I remember they used John Locke season 1 clip as the teaser for the Jacob/MiB episode in season 6 and thought...wow they really did know where they were going for the most part.
You could've done a lot better with this list.
About Lost: They (the showrunners) had no idea where they were taking the show from episode to episode, let alone from season 1 to season 7. To say that they planned "Light vs. Dark" is like saying Jerry Seinfeld planned to be a comedian-- that's just the way it is. Every story has a protagonist and an antagonist. The extent of the planning of "light vs. dark" was the showrunners deciding it wasn't going to be all sun tanning and daiquiris on The Island.
Arrested Development only getting honorable mention is the same reason it didn't last on TV: you're not catching all the jokes. Nearly the entire show is based on foreshadowing a bad/awkward/uncomfortable event, building up to it, then the payoff.
It's not foreshadowing in House of Cards that Frank wants the presidency-- it's the entire story of the show.
WOAH WOAH WOAH, you use the flash forward as an example of foreshadowing of Marvin's death, but not the countdown going on in the background for the entire season leading up to his death? Really?
+herogamer555 Entire episode. Not entire season.
Oh, come on! Arrested Development has the most foreshadowing in a TV show ever! There are at least 6 or 7 references for Buster losing his hand.
Also, the pink teddy bear in Breaking Bad is a reference for Gus's death.
I caught the light vs dark foreshadowing in the backgammon scene when I rewatched Lost and it still blows my mind how good that show was
But according to the creators, that was coincidental, and not intentional in any way.
There is more of that Pink Teddy Bear, There was a big painting in Jane's room where you could also see it. Just after her death her father visited her room, probably in the 2nd season finale or in the phoenix episode .
Also Walter is wearing pink when it falls down in the pool. Foreshadowing his demise
Friends: When Monica babysat her nephew Ben and accidentally bumped his head, he kept saying "Monica Bang...Monica Bang...Monica Bing..." Coincidence? I think not!
Scraping the barrel abit there mate.
You could add several scenes from Game of Thrones here too
plz go sit in the back of the bus
I never knew that Nibbler's shadow was in the very first episode. I thought the whole "Fry is the most important person in the universe" was made up for that episode, not planned out like that. Damn.
Vince Gilligan is a master of foreshadowing. The pink teddy bear, the ricin and several other scenes are so subtle in Breaking Bad
When you do these lists, can't you tell us which shows in the description, just the name of the Shows and what time they are in the video so we can avoid spoilers. Or make a spoiler annotation with the name of the show so we can pause or skip.
Yeah, I know you say spoiler alert in the beignning but it's just a thought for future videos.
How about, in Steven Universe, when crazy conspiracy theorist Renaldo predicted the bad guys intents?
"Polymorphic Sapient Rocks!" "They're lead by the Great Diamond Authority! They're here to hollow out the Earth! They'll take on any form!"
All of which are true.
The names of the episodes in series 2 of Breaking Bad foreshadow the end as well, can't remember exactly which episodes of the top of my head but 4 of them are named respectively 747, Down, Over, ABQ and these episodes are the ones with black and white opening scenes. Also as plenty of other people have pointed out, the half blown off face of the teddy bear is foreshadowing Frings death at the end of season 4.
Buster's missing hand is only an honorable mention? That joke alone is worth re-watching the show to see how many times they foreshadow it!
I saw flippin John Locke and had to come and watch
No! No no no no, you cannot show q shot of David Tennent balling in the beginning and not have him in the goddamn list
As amazing as the foreshadowing of the pink teddy bear because of the black and white flash forwards and what happens to Gus, but I have to give it to LOST. That scene with the backgammon is the whole story of the show. We might not have known it then, but as the show continued on, we know that scene is one of the most important scene in the whole series. It covers so much of the show. Jack vs Locke. Survivors vs Others. Jacob vs Man in Black.
***** Absolutely
My favorite example of foreshadowing is in This is the End when Seth and James are planning Pineapple Express 2 and it literally becomes the actual ending to the movie. And in Scream when Randy tells us exactly what's going on: "the dad's a red herring. It's Billy."
Best use of foreshadowing in manga: One Piece
Absolutely!
+Creuss Drey KYROS!
and GODa stated that there ia aforshadow on the first chapter which leads to the end of the series
+Creuss Drey Too true!
Oda is just a genius man
HODOR!!!!!!!!!!!
Thought the "Nibbler being the cause of why Fry is in the year 3000" was a thing written specifically in that season 4 episode. Makes me want to watch the pilot again.
14:00 The pink teddy bear also foreshadowed Gus Fring's death, as the teddy bear's face was blackened on its left side, the same side Gus lost his face when Hector blew himself up to kill Gus. The pink teddy bear was a double foreshadowing.
+Felix De La Cruz I wouldnt count that, I mean if he loved pink or teddy bears yea but i think youre giving more credit than deserved
Jheri Curl The teddy bear came from the plane explosion. Gus died from an explosion. The left side of the teddy bear's face was blackened. The left side of Gus's face came off in the explosion. It was definitely foreshadowing Gus's death.
