Lostwatch: Faith-Based Initiative - Tuned In - TIME.com
*I always forget Sayid is out there until someone gets popped out of the blue. He is truly the Omar of Lost.

*The exchange between Chang and Hurley—in which Marvin used Hurley's simple ignorance of history to trip him up—was just brilliant. "What year were you born?" "Uh, 19.. 31." "You're 46? You fought in the Korean war?" "There was no such thing." "Who is the President of the United States?" "All right! Dude, we're from the future."


What's Alan Watching?: Lost, "Follow the Leader": Paid the cost to be the boss | 170 comments:
-Anon: The Chang+Hurley scene was a callback to Namaste.
Hurley: What if they start asking us questions we can't answer, like, uh, who's president in 1977?
Sawyer: It's not a damn game show, Hugo.
Apparently it is a damn game show!


-Peter D Bakija: I'm operating under the assumption that John Locke is dead, and "John Locke" that we have now is a manifestation of the island (smoke monster or something). As noted many times, "dead is dead", and there was the whole "you never see John and the smoke monster in the same room" sequence heh. same 'room.' (Ben was expecting the smoke to come thr the bushes into Dharmaville, told Sun to beware of what was coming; Locke stepped out.) I liked that line in Fight Club ~ the narrator re other guy & the girl: when one comes in, the other is gone ~ it's like my parents before the divorce. ("but John Lock *can't* be the smoke monster. The smoke monster wears glasses, and John Locke doesn't..." heh again. specific ref?* Superman?). And we still have only ever seen John Locke from someone else's perspective (i.e. we are yet to see any sequences of John alone, and only ever see him as he reacts to others). hmh.
*-BF: "John Lock *can't* be the smoke monster. The smoke monster wears glasses, and John Locke doesn't..." -- John Locke is Casanova Frankenstein?

-lostepic: The music on Locke's trek to Jacob was great. It's the same music that we had on the other exodus, to the radio tower, but now with different mood to it. I had a real sense that the theme was familiar in purpose but new in method.
