The End

First beach camp on Lost

I was blown away by the season finale of Lost. I had a hard time not crying out loud. I'm not even sure I can put into words the beauty of this final episode. Don't read the rest if you haven't seen the finale. I might write more on this some day. I surely will rewatch the entire series some day, but not for a while. I want to give it time to sink in and formulate clear words. I want to watch the whole thing and have it be fresh again. What a wonderful story.

This is another attempt to write about last week's episode of Lost, "Across the Sea." Spoilers are contained of course if you haven't gotten up this far in season 6.

The entire following post is something interesting thing that someone posted at SA:

Fajita Field Trip

Coconut Grove

It's time for a good Lost catch-up.

Lost is now weaving some reveals into character-focused episodes.

Desmond and Penny

Really Camp Erdman, a YMCA camp, this is Dharmaville and the tree Smokey threw Richard into

Awwww. . . so good to see this week's episode of Lost focus on love, and bring back Penny, Desmond, Charlie, Eloise, and Daniel all in one episode. It was a beautiful episode! Only 6 episodes left, and then I will probably just rewatch the whole thing once we get season 6 on Blu-Ray.

Genie in a Bottle

Temple door

One of the things I thought of last Tuesday night, when watching Lost, was Jacob's bottle with a cork and his one wish to Richard. This yelled "Genie" to me, though in all the reviews I've read I hadn't come across any that talked about Lost's grand spectrum of mythology to include that of the jinn or Djinn, a supernatural being existing in a world parallel to mankind. Various cultures have various views of genies (derived from jinn/Djinn), including versions of ones who are associated with the sea (marids) and those who live beneath abandoned buildings, especially ruins (ifrits). Oh hello, Smokey! There's even a mention of one being like a smokeless fire.

In the beginning (or a long time ago)...

Tonight (now, last night's--it's late and I have a bad head cold and can't sleep!) episode of Lost was very good. It was all about Richard Alpert's past, and answered a few mysteries that we've wondered about for the past seasons.

I'm Not Time Traveling

This was a gift from Jacob. Only. . . It's not a gift at all. It's a curse.

I've got some time to write before heading over to Sam and Monica's for dinner, and then going on a "double-date" to see Alice in Wonderland. We actually already saw it, but it's pretty good. P.S. This post is about time and traveling.

Horus vs. Anubis

Jacob vs. Esau?

This Popeyes was turned into Mr. Cluck's Chicken

 
The plot after last Lost's episode thickens, and I think regardless of our theories of the island, which expand with every new reveal on every new episode, I am beginning to think that the writers and producers intended this show to be one of the first in its kind to involve audience interaction. What with blogs, youtube, forums, and so on, and millions of viewers, it's no wonder when this is the age where you can produce on television a level of audience-induced direction, if that makes any sense. I noticed in Episode 5, "Lighthouse," Hurley was barking out everything the audience was thinking. In this past episode, "Sundown," Miles uttered something about Claire being wilder but still hot. All these statements mimic what the fans have been saying and thinking.
