the only real thing about snake island, was the snakes
cant imagine how long it took to film the scenes with snakes
some scenes they are just walking,sitting and didnt appear
to be concerned about snakes

OOOOOO!!! the cliff hanger, the piece of box!! You know we will be gathered around the tv just like when The Walking Dead comes back for it's new season in October! YES I'm so addicted to it!

Yea I can't watch that Fear the walking dead Soap Opera they are trying to Pass off Now.
I'll wait for The Real show :laughing7: ZNation season 2 's first Episode on Sci Fi was Awesome Friday night :laughing7: more Comedy then Not, I loved the pimped out Zombies :headbang:

I enjoyed every Episode of Snake Island, But still think
they could fit the Whole thing in 2 Hours With Commercials

You are just so right Jeff. Was so excited for Z nation to return, I had it marked on my calendar for month. Walking Dead is fantastic, but Fear The Walking Dead is so far a snooze fest.

Couple of crusty coins... and a corner of a wooden box. heh

WHICH I might add... the coins were found in the water... NOT on the island...
Which so far is the ONLY indication/proof/spot where they might find more.

Personally ... after finding those coins in the water it would have been a full on SCOUR of that area...
I would have never even stepped foot on the dang infested rock.... even with a suit of armor and flamethrower...
Welll...
Ok... I WOULD go on that island with a FULL suit of armor and a flamethrower... :) that kinda sounds like fun :)

Fried snake anyone ? Tastes like chicken :P

This Island has been searched over and over by Treasure Hunters since the spread of the legend... like ALL islands branded with a legend of similarity...

A. Treasure was found long ago and removed.
B. Treasure remains... but has eluded the eyes and hands of hundreds and hundreds of searchers. (which means it would also definitely elude theirs as well)
C. Treasure is no longer on the island... or never was... and now lies in the water... either in part... or as a whole... due to one reason or another.

What perplexes me is the fact that coins are found in a relatively short time... almost immediately in the water... yet they choose to leave this spot and risk time over and over on land...
Land that has been searched thoroughly... with NO "hits" thus far...NO evidence... and a history of being scoured to the ends of it.

Not that "bright" IMO... "Hmmm lets leave this precious coin finding area and seek a more dangerous new one". (greed ? Pompous ? Vanity ? Stupidity ?)

I guess they believe they are "the chosen ones" ... with cameras... heh

I do not know about you...
But I would rather stick to a "trail" that bares fruit.

AKA follow the money trail ! :)

I still think that ship wreck is a protected Historical Site.

and either the coins were for Show, or had to be replaced or Turned in.

although it may have been in the script for Drama,
so they could cry Pirate during a few Previews,
the Navy even showed up asking questions.

Well I guess searching the water where THEY TOSSED THE COINS IN would be about as productive as the island search. LOL!!!!

It's called Hollywood. Ratings.
