Big Damn Hero Moments

[ozmissage]

You know how people warn you not to visit the tv tropes site unless you have a day and a half to kill? Listen to them for they are very wise souls.

Good grief, I went in search of one thing (that I never found) and ended up reading through all of the Lost tropes and LMAO. I love Lost. I know I say that a lot, but it’s a true fact. I love that

Ahhh, you've got me reading that site!! It's strangely addicting to read up on. :-P

More awesome moments for Sun - pretty much all of S5 - esp. when she talks to Widmore:
"You mentioned that you and I had common interests. Why don't you tell me exactly what they might be."
"To kill Benjamin Linus."

I love that Rose bit. :-) Actually, pretty much 'this!' to all of it. Except for the Jin bit - when did that happen?

Oh no! Get out while you still can, it's weirdly addictive. And you can't just click one thing, it's impossible.

That's a great Sun moment! I almost picked that one for her.

Heh. The Jin thing is in what is probably one of the most boring Lost episodes ever, "And Found..." I just remember it as the Lost borrows a really bad sitcom plot episode. Sun loses her wedding ring! Shock! *shakes head*

Anyway, in the FB Jin has a job as a doorman for this fancy pants hotel and the evil manager tells him not to let poor people into the lobby to use the restrooms, but Jin can't say no to this little boy and his Dad and ends up losing his job.

It took me a long time to warm up to Jin, but I think that was the moment I really let go of my lingering suspicion that he was an ass. It's a little scene, but I kind of love it. :)

Great list!

Heh. Thank you! I seriously shouldn't be allowed on that site past midnight...it does funny things to your brain. ;)

Thank you my dear! I just love that shot of Sun letting the towel drop. It felt so powerful.

But that paddle scene was epically badass. :D

In retrospect, I really think Richard's intro in Juliet's first flashback, "Not in Portland" was a Crowning Moment of Awesome. I'm pretty sure that was the first time he showed up. Anyway, looking back, it was really an amazing introduction for him.

And when we see him looking the same when Ben's a kid? I think that was the first major clue that the man was freakin' ageless? Crowning moment too.

And back to "Not in Portland," the insane transition from Meek!Juliet to Badass!Juliet. (Though I really wish we had got more details about that transition.)

Oh, and Juliet faced Smokey without flinching too! :D

I was having such a hard time remembering Richard moments last night for some reason. I love the scene where he introduces himself to little Ben though. That was so epic. :)

Guh. Juliet had like one crowning moment after another. She's just that cool.

Dude, these are seriously all PERFECT. I was about to pick favourites, but I love them all! Mr. Eko being so badass, Rose, Frank, Miles and his solid logic, Daniel's crazy time experiments and Charlotte (I love that moment, so hardcore). Very, very cool!

[ozmissage]

Heh. Thank you! Lost is so good at giving characters moments of awesome. It balances out all of the moments of crazy. ;)

That Charlotte moment guaranteed I would love her until the end of time. She was such a badass.
