I’m so excited about the last season of ABC’s hit television series LOST. The past couple of weeks I’ve been busy catching up and I have to say I liked season 5 best so far. And after seeing LA X yesterday and today, I have to say… WOW! I really didn’t see that coming. I do have some questions, though, but I will wait asking them, as the questions itself would spoil it for people who haven’t watched the newest episodes yet. In the mean time I found this youtube clip which compares Flight 815 v. 1.0 with v. 2.0 and it stops just in time to prevent people getting spoiled.
I’m currently catching up on the tv series “LOST”. It’s pretty interesting and I’m completely intrigued by it. Today I saw this picture featured on Slashfilm.com and thought it’s hilarious. And thanks to Glennz you can now have a t-shirt with the picture on it.
Comment from the designer: “Some guy called Desmond told me about a missing plane he once saw on the side of a milk carton. He disappeared, but I recently had a message on my phone telling me it was time to print this concept. Whoever it was didn’t leave their name but it came from 4 8 15 16 23 42.”
In a month or so, LOST will be in its final season. I’m horribly behind on things, but I’m getting better. LOST was on my ‘I have to watch this TV series sometimes’ list, but I never got around watching it, partly because I don’t have a TV anymore and got completely out of touch with what’s aired over here and what’s not. The fact I’m depending on welfare doesn’t really help either. I used to have a VPN account to watch hulu and the like, but at one point that just got too expensive and I had to cancel that. Luckily my friend Fr. Roderick allowed me to borrow his DVDs for season 1 and 2 so I could watch it. And so I did last December! Below is my review of season 1 and some theories I have right now. I’m in the process of watching the rest later this month, so other reviews will follow. So please, if you read this and are completely caught up, don’t post any spoilers here!
For those folks who weren’t able to watch this hitseries I strongly recommend doing so. You may not want to read the stuff after the jump, because it will contain spoilers. I just guess that by now everybody who ever wanted to see LOST season 1 has done that by now.
What made the series promising for me is the fact that it is from J.J. Abrahams, which for me stands for good SF. I was somewhat surprised to see that the whole series is set on a tropical island here on earth with no space ships or aliens in sight. I totally love series in space, so this was something I need to grow used to. The series timeline seems to be set in the present too, so I’m still a bit confused as what the whole ScienceFiction part of the series is going to be.
I bet most of you have seen these images somewhere sometime. It seems to be a trend to shoot a “Last Supper” image with the cast of popular films and TV Shows. Typically, they will copy the “original” painting made by Leonardo Da Vinci between 1495 and 1498, which looks like this:
According to Wikipedia, the picture depicts the event narrated in the Gospel of John, chapter 13 verse 21, where Jesus announces that one of the twelve apostles would betray him. I will quote Wikipedia’s entry on the grouping of figures:
