The Lost DVD Club

While I keep trying to finish my crazy long season finale podcast (I'm off tomorrow, so some major develpments should take place), here's some exciting news.

Josh, a.k.a. Spivy (whom you may know from the crowd on Big O's live shows), shared my wonderous idea of rewatching the series over the summer, because its a show that needs to be rewatched. We decided that it would be fun to do it sort of like (and this is my retarded anaology...) a book club. I'll post a schedule here, and if you'd like you can watch the episodes and join us live. The shows will be Thursday nights at 10 p.m., and you can join in on Talkshoe.

Tomorrow night will be our first episode (as of now), so please stop by! Even if you haven't rewatched the episode, I think the Pilot is a pretty memorable episode, so any comments are welcome! We're just gonna re-live the sheer awesomeness that is season one. Drop in - it'll be a party <3

Friends don't let friends theorize at 4 a.m.

I hope no one read this earlier, because I was muy incorrecto. That IS in fact John Locke. What happens is it shows him from inside the cabin, then they have to completely change cameras due to the fact that there's a wall there and they can't rotate the shot.

Then we see him in the chair, but you knew that already. I still think the face of the shape looks like Terry O'Quinn, but it also vaguely reminds me of a ton of other people :




And now that I see it again, I'm not one hundred percent convinced on the eye - I suppose it COULD be Ben's. If you look at him in this scene (after Locke says "you're crazy), his eyes seemsomewhat darker than usual, I'm not sure if its contacts or bad lighting (though Locke's eyes don't seem affected...). The way it cuts it very strange, because it starts on a shot of Ben...so its another case of a double shot...the camera work in this scene was very...strange. Remniscent of something, but I couldn't put my finger on what....

I didn't notice the sound effects - when Ben gets thrown into the wall, it sounds an awful lot like a gunshot - foreshadowing?

I have to note that playwithtv has Locke moved into the deceased alliance already - yeah right (unfortunately)!

Thanks SO much to tightfade on youtube for that graet quality clip!

What the heck, one ***SPOILER*** to grow on!

So here's the latest from Ausiello, and you can bet there's one thing I'm focusing on!

Question: Thanks for the Lost scoop last week. But I am a greedy bugger, and will take the words out of Oliver Twist's mouth: I want some more!— Benjamin Fleming
Ausiello: And more you shall get, BF. Lost's streak of mind-blowing episodes continues tonight with "The Brig," the much ballyhooed "non-flashback" outing penned by Team Darlton. But I have to warn you, it's a dark hour, punctuated by one of the (spoiler alert) most, um, twisted Lost deaths ever.

It has to be Cooper - the big question is who pulls the proverbial (or literal..) trigger? My money is on Locke, but how twisted could it be? What could be more twisted than Nikki being buried alive? Twisted a word that I really like, and "dark" usually spells "amazing" in my book....and I like how, even though I know these spoilers, my jaw will still be on the ground at the end of the episode. ...unless "twisted" is to be taken literally, which I sort of get from the "um" and he ends up hanging himself or being strangled or....something. But I feel that would a cop-out.

How do you think he will die? Or rather, at whose hands?

Locke?
Sawyer?
An Other? (n.p.i.)
Suicide?
Dang...now that the last one has occured to me, I kind of like it! And there's a ton of twisted potential there!

Question: Help me out here. I’m four months pregnant and need as much Lost scoop as possible!— Allyson
Ausiello: How 'bout I give you four "Brig" scoops — one for each month you've been knocked up:

1) A classic Lost set piece makes a comeback.
2) Keep your eyes on Juliet's tape recorder. It's goin' places.
3) Someone poses this question to Sawyer: "Wanna zip your pants up?"
4) There's a little post-coitus canoodling within the first five minutes (and it may or may not be related to No. 3).

1.) A Classic....Lost....set piece? The Black Rock? The plane wreckage? um...tarps?
2. This is just interesting, because it sounds like its going places that I want to be
3. We have already seen that this is in fact Locke...hehe
4. Oh joy...more Skate sex.....at least they seem to be an established couple, and the angstallelogram seems to have migrated south....temporarily, anyway.

Question: Am I wrong to suspect that Jack will be one of the five Lost deaths you have been speaking of?— Brandon
Ausiello: Yes, you would be wrong to suspect that. Jack is not dying. And remember, I said there will be at least five deaths this month — four after tonight.

Bummer...I knew they wouldn't do it. Four doesn't seem like a very high number of casualties for a war. Is that like....four main characters? As in people who have had flashbacks? Because I can't even begin to imagine....although I do have a list x.x

Question: Did we see the "game-changing" moment on last week's Lost when Naomi revealed that the outside world had found Flight 815 and that there were no survivors?— Louis
Ausiello: Take it away, Damon Lindelof: "Nope. Not yet. Trust us.... YOU. WILL. KNOW."

Once again, I can't even imagine what this could possibly be! I really thought that was it, and I was like "FINALLY! The thing they've been not telling us about!" Apparently not. I'm pretty sure it will come in either the Benback or the finale....can we get something intesnse before the finale...PLEASE?

....oh, thats right - 'DA BRIG is on in less than twenty four hours!
