I've been thinking about LOST a decent amount over the past couple of weeks. It's been about a year since the show ended, and I miss it.

Then today I stumbled onto this article at io9: Why GRRM is Wrong About the Ending of LOST.

Essentially, GRRM said he didn't want to his A Song of Ice and Fire to end like LOST did - which he likened to a giant turd ( Read more... )

I (finally) watched the penultimate episode of The Walking Dead this weekend. And all of a sudden, it was like - wait. Is that the Hatch? And is that Desmond in the Swan Station? Except...neither of these things in The Walking Dead are as cool as Desmond or the Hatch. I still need to watch the last episode of the season, but that seriously bummed ( Read more... )

Wow. I can’t believe it’s over. It’s “The End” of LOST, and I’m left heartbroken and inspired.

( Then I'll See You In Another Life, Brother )

That's the best line (so far) from the latest Geronimo Jack's Beard podcast, the one with Jorge Garcia and Sidekick22. (Special guest this week: Henry Ian Cusik aka Desmundo!)

The boars, the boars! Oh, man, I can't stop giggling at my desk...

As much as it was a set-up episode for the series finale, last night's "What They Died For" was a very pleasant change from last week's episode. Because we got back to the characters we care about, at least the ones that are still alive.

No, no, Lost isn't until tomorrow night, but I found this interview with Lindelof and Cuse over at the New York Times fascinating, and I thought I'd share it with the 4-5 of you who might enjoy it.

Lindelof says this about how the polar bear cages and Desmond became metaphors for themselves and their experiences:

Carlton and I have long said that ( Read more... )

You know that classic writing rule of "Show, Don't Tell"? Last night's Lost episode "Across the Sea" really illustrates that some rules shouldn't be followed.

Remember in Star Wars when Obi Wan Kenobi said to Luke, "A young jedi, named Darth Vader, who was a pupil of mine before he turned to evil, helped the Empire hunt down and destroy the Jedi ( Read more... )

Three more episodes left! The black and white ambiguity of the season was completely torpedoed in this episode, and I'm left like Hurley on the beach, sobbing...I don't know who "The Candidate" was in this week's Lost, but let's talk. This is going to be loooooooooooooooooooooong.

One of my favorite things about LOST is trying to figure out WTF is going on. Good news (well, if you're like-minded)! Damon Lindelof says when the show ends, it will leave people theorizing for years. He also has some interesting things to say about criticism and art. Finally, he says that a large bit of the finale has been set for years. ( Read more... )
