To the writers: You can’t cheat on us like that. If we get the clue then you have to work with what you gave us. No take backs.

Why do they die?

I would like to see two characters with a major crossover (back home) meet on the island before the character is axed.  Sawyer did tell Jack the story about his dad and it was a very powerful moment.  I want more!
> Desmond and Libby.
> Kelvin and Sayid.
> Anna Lucia and Jack (well, his dad).
> Hurley realize the connection to Libby.

And I am sure that there will be more to come.

Lost Trivia Challange

Wednesday, June 28th, 2006

Check out this fun Lost trivia game. 10 questions at a time but if you play again you will get (mostly) new questions. I scored a 10 and if I didn’t I was going to have to take down my site in shame. lol

Matthew Fox does not speak Portuguese

Tuesday, June 27th, 2006

There are rumors that Matthew Fox is one of the two guys in the artic “hatch.”  I just listened to the Podcast dated 5-26-06 with two of the writers and they confirmed 100% that Foxy is “not” one of the two guys.

Coincidence?

Toys and now dress up

To go along with our getting in touch with our childhood through Lost play, here is an idea for a Halloween costume.

The Henry Gale Costume

There is a very good podcast interview with Michael Emerson available from Comic News Insider. It’s a great interview- funny with some revealing information regarding the making of LOST. One of the funniest moments came when Emerson brought up the subject of kids and Halloween costumes:

The best compliment I’ve gotten lately… was a friend of my wife’s called to say that her son was going as Henry Gale for Halloween… to me, what could be better? We’re going to send him a little picture of Henry for reference purposes: the torn orange shirt, the arrow bandage…

So, really! What would we need for a Henry Gale costume?

(1) Torn orange shirt – check Salvation Army thrift stores, closet
(2) gauze bandage – easy!
(3) fake scratches – see instructions here!reference photo here
(4) fake bruises – see instructions here!
(5) box of Cheerios with Dharma logo – got any milk?

With Season 3 starting in October, we should have plenty of little LOST characters collecting lots of candy. Jack (with squirt gun, intense look, eyes pointing in different directions): OK Sawyer – give us the candy!

Illinois, home of Hanso?

Thursday, June 22nd, 2006

I was going back through my pictures from our recent trip to Chicago.  My daughter likes to take snapshots along the road as we travel.  I was trying to decide which pictures to keep and which to trash and I happened to see this symbol in the corner of this picture.  Am I stretching here?

Counter symbols

Wednesday, June 21st, 2006

Ancient heiroglyphs? I originally posted that these could be symbols for the other hatches, some type of device to give a “status” of the other stations. Now that we’ve seen the artifact of the foot with four toes and the rock with the window, could these symbols have something to do with artifacts on the island? Could they represent other significant landmarks affected by the magnetic force in the hatch?

“How” many minutes on the clock?

Tuesday, June 20th, 2006

I was browsing through my screencaps from the season finale and came across this picture:

lost_counter109.jpg

Maybe I’m tired and not thinking straight, but aren’t there supposed to be only 108 minutes on the clock? This is a shot from the scene in Desmond’s flashback where he types in the numbers then crawls under the hatch to find Kelvin and the key. Thoughts?
