L O S T

It's on tonight, and man, do I need to watch something that's not gonna make me want to rip someone's fucking face off.

But I am thankful for the others, of course.

Here is a weird video I made a while back with weird, soothing music. I think.

ALL OF THE DUCKS ARE FREE!!!

FREE THE DUCK!!

:evilgrin:

:hi:

I shit you not!

:rofl:

AND SHE IS FREE!

They are teasing that Ben gets killed tonight. At least we should get lots of Ben :D

:P

at the bottom of the screen, it just referenced what Widmore said to Locke:

That if he doesn't get to the Island, the WRONG side would win.


So is that just a HUGE clue that Jacob is the bad guy, NOT Esau (fauxlocke?

...who really knows if he's the right side or not.

we may not know which side is the "right side" till the series finale.


heh, i loved the "Jacob was like my father" "uh oh!"

The way Miles says "uh oh!" cracks me up :rofl:

But I just watch the east coast feed on the net anyhow....my tv gives me the real broadcast at 9

when she revealed the principal's behavior.

She was Rousseau's daughter that Ben kidnapped.

bwahahahahaha, classic Hurley.

So Richard is now against both Jacob and NotLocke? What caused this change?

bwahahahaha

a fantastic monologue from a fantastic actor

...and Ben's redemption continues. He didn't give in to Locke's vague promises. I didn't see her forgiving him...good stuff.

while island ben is slowly redeeming himself. Ben's speech during the season finale, right before he kills Jacob is one of the painful speeches you'll hear on TV. He, and Richard, are two men who devoted their lives to the island only to see everything they stood for turned upside down and destroyed.

He looked so beaten at the end of the show. He just pulls sympathy from you.

He walks the line between good and evil so well.

and Ilena's reaction? Now I REALLY want to know more about her. She said to Ben what Jacob should have said years ago. Sad and beautiful.

He'll get nominated, but then lose to some BS character

Then Widmore shows up.

although great insight into Ben. Don't get me wrong - I enjoyed it, but thought the Claire ep from 2 weeks ago a bit better. Still - awesome ep - and looks like things are bout to get crazy! Everything is in place, sides have been chosen, and Whidmore is on the horizon! Too bad I knew Alan Dale plays Whidmore - saw his name in the credits so when he hadn't shown up by the final minute... doh. Man - good stuff. :)

I view the show as more of a character sketch than a plot-driven series. Sure I want answers to the questions, but the transitions/transformations the characters are making seem more important to the overall theme of the work and this episode had that to a crazy level.

this seemed a bit.. less. Heh. Was still a great ep, as can be said about most of Lost, just not my fav of the season. The decisions made by Ben were classic - he semi-redeemed himself. I was shocked when he was given a choice to go back with Sun, Lapidis and the others that he chose that over the option to o with the fake Locke and "rule the island". Very interesting. Looks like Ben is finally starting to admit to some of his actions have been wrong. Which is maybe the result Jacob was looking for all along? Hmmm... :evilgrin:

Mighty fine TV tonight. Mighty fine TV. :D

:hi:

I think it's the Garden of Eden, Jacob is the angel who's supposed to guard it from Adam & Eve returning and MIB is the flaming sword--the Original Security System. So Jacob's the bad guy cause he got bored just keeping humanity out of Eden and Smokey is the other bad guy cause he's been trying to leave the sentry post God put them both at ever since the island's guardian started luring people onto the island out of boredom.

That makes Ilana, as Jacob's daughter, a Nephilim.

It's a cork. Check out the clues from E! Online in the recap this week:

That Four-Letter Word…For you who are still guessing the four-letter word that describes what the island is, here are the clues you know:

* It has one vowel.
* It has no A's and no E's.

And here's your new clue:

* Umm...Please don't whine that I can't say anything more right now! Sorry!

(Bold emphasis mine.) Why am I bringing it up again? BECAUSE IT'S THE ONLY THING ABOUT LOST THAT I'VE EVER GUESSED RIGHT!
:rofl:

Now...what's it corking? The bowels of hell? That's my vote.

cork sounds so odd to me. How can the island be a cork when corks float but we see the island under water in the side flash?

It's existence is stoppering up something, and if the island is not tended, whatever it is that it's preventing from getting out WILL get out and make a mess of life on earth (evil?)

The island could be the stopgap to paradise.

They're not perfect, but they each seem to be doing a slightly better job of muddling through life and solving their hang ups. Even Locke's dad seemed to be less of a bastard. Did Jack & Juliet blowing up the island actually kill evil in the world?

but something. Locke is still paralyzed. Sayid was still a torturer (though certainly doing a better job of redemption). But they seem to be on better paths when they aren't being manipulated by the evil Jacob :evilgrin: We don't even know if Sawyer is still a con man.

Of course that could just be a set up. We'll know how "redeemed" Sawyer is when we do his flashback. If people are calling him James instead of Sawyer, he's on the path to self improvement. Actually, I'm more interested in seeing the slidetimewise version of Jin and Sun. I just don't see how he'll get back to the plucky fisherman's son he once was. In Island time, it's been three years since he's seen his wife. I'm pretty sure Sun has had at least a couple of affairs in that time (most likely with Charles Widmore). She's not the most faithful spouse in the world, even if she did manage to keep her mitts off Michael.

since it went nowhere. I'm guessing he's trying hard to be a stand up guy. Maybe his parents never got killed by Locke's dad since we know Locke is still in touch with him.

Hey, that fits, too...

I hadn't actually thought of it as "The Garden of Eden" but that is a good idea. I was thinking more in the lines of them being angels testing men. Or possibly living out a punishment from god. I reminds me somewhat of Bartleby and Loki's situation from the movie Dogma. Or Lucifer's stance as written in Memnoch the Devil. I don't know if there is a "good" or "bad" side. There are a few things tht the Man in Black has said that make me think this. "They come, they kill, they destroy , they corrupt, it always ends the same." Makes me think that he is not "evil" Also, when he tells, I think Sawyer, that he has been hurt and he has loved and that he wanted to go home. This leads me to think that possibley they have be forced there by "god" These are just thoughts. Sorry if they are incoherent. I know what the hell I am trying to say. I think. So, it goes with LOST.

She knows me so well.

Bring back Sawyer!!!!

Sheesh. We have needs.

dynamite. (sorry)

Great transition for Jack from a man of science to a man of faith.

No doubt about it: Jack is the one who's going to take down Smokey McMIB.

And one last prediction: just to screw with the fans, Sawyer is going to end up with Sun.

:P

And on edit: Her name would be Sun Reyes, which is WAY TOO PERFECT.

Jack
Hurley
Sawyer
Sayid? Still?
Kwon - which one?
Kate?

:P
