.018 Lost Review-let.
"So nice to see Lost is just as dedicated to making NO SENSE WHATSOEVER as usual."
WORD.
→ So Jacob really is dead? Extreme disappointment. It's a good thing that Hurley (and Miles) can talk to dead people/gods/mysterious entities.
→ I loved Richard manhandling Ben like that. "I think you should say hello to him first!" *shove*
→ I did not love evil!Locke manhandling Richard in such a manner. That was not okay, Evil!Locke! You hear me?!?!
→ (Sidenote: Though the idea of Richard in chains is mildly intriguing.)
→ (Sidenote #2: Where is he taking him? Bargaining chip at the temple?)
→ Claire! That was a beautiful 1-second return + throwaway line. Nice wig. I hope this isn't an indication of your projected screentime levels this season. That adds up to about a half a second per episode. That'd be like 8 seconds total. That would suck.

That's all I've got.

Although I am hearing these "Sayid is Jacob reincarnated" theories.
Seems unlikely. And also likely. (This is Lost after all.)
no subject
What? People have theories? Already? I sure hope that's wrong. Because then my beloved Sayid would really be dead and I'd be really pissed off.
Seems unlikely. And also likely. (This is Lost after all.)
Heck, anything can happen on Lost. But if Sayid is really dead I may have to stop watching. Only Claire could save it for me then. More Claire, show!

And damn that scene with Jack and Locke was good. Kind of sweet too. So strange to watch. Used to seeing them scream at each others faces.
And damn. FakeLocke is scarrrryyyy. Terry O/Quinn can do one fucking mean looking face. I like how he talked to all the people as if they were pets. Its a very cool set up. For the backgammon concept.
no subject
Yeah I wonder if in this alterna-timeline Jack will save Locke's legs? I'm intrigued. But there he goes saving everything again.
He is pretty scary. It's amazing that he can play "whiny" just as well.
no subject
Richard getting punched in the neck is SO not buddies. Hopefully he gets revenge.
Also, the first hour felt kinda pointless. Like half of it was spent trying to get Juliet out and then once they did she died? I'm not complaining about that but still lol it just felt like it ate up time.
*shrug* Either way, I think I know exactly as much as I did before the ep started lol
no subject
Yes I agree. Time eaten. (And I shall never get it back, lol.)
No well, you know that the temple is not underground, that it has PEOPLE in it, and that well okay those are really the only new things.

Yeah his hair is not good. I think I've heard (a long time ago, but I'm assuming it still holds true) that Josh really would like to cut his hair but essentially can't which makes no sense because they've had access to scissors on the island since the crash. Claire cut Charlie's hair in s1 and Kate cut Sawyer's hair I think in s2.
Anyway, this is pretty much just a rant about how this show SUCKS when it comes to hair. SUCKS I SAY!

WORD ON RICHARD.
And word on evil!Locke being... well, I'll shut the hell up. If he dares touch Richard....
Yay Claire? Now I hope she's around for more... even if why didn't they show her on the plane? O_o
no subject
Yeah I am truly confused as to why we didn't see her on the plane. Especially since they have Emilie as a regular again this season. The even had this whole montage! We couldn't even see the back of her or something? *grumble*grumble*
And stop making her wear that wig for goodness sakes!
no subject
People should also keep their manhandling away from Richard, as a general rule. Unless it's good manhandling, in which case Richard would probably be the one doing it.
And I am so not writing that chain!fic... no....And Claire!
Why did we not see more Claire?
no subject
Yeah, manhandling is only okay if it's the consensual type. lol.
I am asking myself that very same question.
no subject
I feel like maybe if we were absolutely confident that the writers/creators knew what the fuck they were doing and actually did have some big, explainy, sense-making ending in store all along, it would be a lot easier to fall into that "omg i don't get it at all, this is awesome" state of mind until we got to said ending. lol But instead, it just feels like they're going what's the most random thing we can do? Sweet, let's try that. Or something lol
Anyhoo *shrug*. I was sort of ruminating over that in the shower this morning. Off to brush my hair! Have a good morning yourself :)
no subject
This morning I was thinking, if someone told me this is what the final season premiere would be after I had watched the pilot, two things would have happened. I would have stopped watching the show then and there. Or B) I would have said, "It will all make sense by the time I watch these first five seasons." I would eventually learn that I was wrong. But as I'm here now, there's not really any stopping.
SIGH. Now I know what it's like to be in chains, Richard.
no subject
I really felt cheated to see Claire only a tiny bit like that. seriously? I know they wanted the shock factor, but it's not on.
no subject
Yeah I was really bummed about the Claire thing. Especially considering all of the random characters that got far more screen time than she did. I mean one second? Out of two hours? That's the best you can give us lost?

and yeah, Richard being all man-handle-y is fine, BEING manhandled, not so fine.
And yes, more Claire please! More than 8 seconds. Please.
no subject
More than 8 seconds. I'm crossing my fingers. (Not holding my breath though.)
