Video Screen Caps

One of the first thing you may notice while watching the video is a quick flash of something. When the screen is paused at just the right time you can see this picture:



"Ajiwa" in Hindi means "island". Ajiwa Airlines also has a website and written across the site is the phrase "Destiny Calls".


The following pic includes some people I never saw before. They don't look like any "Others" I have ever seen before and they are certainly not dressed in "Others" clothing. I believe the person in the foreground is Miles looking at them.



Is this picture the first half of -



This picture:

And if so, why are Jack and Sayid fighting?

The following picture appears to be the same window we saw on the Swan Hatch door. The one Locke and Company blew open way back in the end of season 1. Does that look like Juliette's blond hair in the picture as well?






Is that the "Safe House" Sayid is supposed to take Hurley to? They got some odd colored stained glass type windows on the door.

At first glance this may look like a picture that was taken around the time of the Moth or Fire + Water episodes when Charlie was still hooked on heroine. Seems possible but why does it seem to look like something that hasn't happened yet?





More people that I don't know who they are. Hopefully one of them will turn out to be Montand from the past! Hey, I can wish can't I?

In the following picture, explosion or Smokey?



Who's dis guy? That also looks like the Swan Hatch doesn't it?



Uh, not a good sign for old Johnny Locke!






And not a good one for Charlotte either. Could she have the same time jump sickness Desmond had on the freighter?

Here's Another One

This time there is no music video with it and some different clips.

New Season 5 Promo

Here is the official season 5 video trailer that ABC has released. There are some parts that happened already but there is also some new stuff. Screen caps and some comments to follow soon. Please to enjoy!

My New Job

Something else I have been occupied with while my blog was on hiatus is I was involved in an online Alternate Reality Game or ARG as they are more familiarly referred to. Of course it's LOST related you sill! The scenario of the ARG is that The DHARMA Initiative is trying to reestablish itself as a scientific community in the world and are in the process of recruiting new employees. I had to complete several tests, and some of these were not easy tests, all of which were completed online. After I completed all of the tests I had to wait for the results and my personal assessment. I recently received an email containing my dossier from The DHARMA Initiative and can share it with you now. The following are my test scores (yes I used cheat codes on some of the tests, get over it cause I sure did!) as well as my DHARMA job assignment.




Proof Reader for the DHARMA Initiative!! Yeah, I know, I rock!



Notice I scored at or above the average of the rest of the recruits on all of the tests but one. In fact not only was I below average but I scored a a big fat goose egg. Yeah the part I did horribly on was the "Honesty and Integrity" part of the test. Go fig! Notice I am also in the "Communications Department", whatever the hell that is.

Some of the other recruits that I have had contact with have been assigned to either Brick Layer, Bus Driver, Research Assistant, Cinematographer, and/or Cook as their jobs. The other areas they are classified to work in are Human Services Department, Infrastructure Department, and Human Interaction Analysis Programs Department.

If and when I hear more I will be sure to update. Until then, Namaste.

I'm Comming Back Bitches!

After a brief hiatus that I took in order to get some things together (moving, another Disney trip, getting hit by a truck, and other mundane crap, this blog is finally back and all I have to say is: PUBLIC DOMAIN henceforth mother f'ers! (I have to say that to remove any chance of getting into touble with some people, you know who you are!)

I thought I would jump right back in with some pics from the new season of our favorite show LOST. The header up there is the first new promo shot that ABC has published. Looks kinda cool. Following are some filming pics that I was able to collect from eyewitnesses living in Hawaii. Enjoy.



Daniel doing some promo pics for the new season. Looks like he's in the new season in some form or another, eh?



Naveen doing some promo shots as well. This one is not from an episode, neither is the previous one of Jin.



That's Jack talking to Kate who is inside the car. Is that the same car she was driving in the "We have to go back!!!" scenes?



Kate's got on some serious clam diggers! Not sure what the time line is here but it may have been around the time of her trial.



Here's our resident Dr. walking the streets, guess this is in between takes, I don't recall Jack smoking. Notice Jack still has that old ass jeep.

See you in a few with some more pics and some inside info!

"Don't tell me what I can't do!" - John Locke

BWAHHHH-HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAH

I won't go away. I'm in your blood.

Well as bad a Last House on the Left was, the next movie I want to review (I promise Cerpts, I will give you my Diary of a Madman review, just not yet. I want to leave you in suspense for a little bit more.), Let's Scare Jessica to Death is another of those 70's low budget horror movies that didn't really do much at the box office originally but later became a staple of the late night scene. Today LSJTD (I love to use initials) is somewhat of a cult classic.



Jessica (Zohra Lampert) recently released from a mental institute after a nervous breakdown decides she needs a change of scenery from the big city. Her husband, Duncan (Barton Heyman) and friend Woody (Kevin O'Connor) decide to move to an old farmhouse in Connecticut. Upon arriving at the house, which is effectively creepy although for no specific reason really, meet a hippy chick named Emily (Mariclaire Costello) who seems to be squatting at the farmhouse. Shortly thereafter Jessica's madness resumes and we are left to wonder for a time if it is all in Jessica's head or is something really going on.



The film has been compared to Rosemary's Baby as well as The Haunting in that they all follow the point of view from a female with a questionable sanity. There is no gore and not much violence, instead the story relies heavily on atmosphere to bring out the heebie jeebies here. And bring them out it does! I cannot tell you how much I fell in love with this movie from the very first few minutes. The first scene of a woman in a boat on a lake is both serene and ominously creepy. The narration by Jessica in the scene adds to the suspense and instantly put me on edge. At the end of the film you figure out the entire movie is a flashback and the last scene is the same as the first scene only now we have the complete story of the girl in the boat alone, out on the lake. The scene at the end of the movie is even more creepy as the camera pulls back to show the big picture. The ending is purposefully vague to give the viewer the ability to draw their own conclusions. Some say the ending subtracts from the movie but I disagree. The plot of the story is sometimes compared to the vampire novella, Camille from 1872.



For those of you who do not know who Barton Heyman was, he was an actor who made several appearances in films throughout the 60's, 70's, and 80's. His last role was as a prison guard in the movie Dead Man Walking starring Sean Penn. It is Heyman who utters the films title line as Penn is lead to the death chamber.



Unfortunately the style and feeling of LSJTD is no longer used, and boy could we use more movies like this one today. It is surprisingly so, one of the most eerie movies I have ever seen. The score of the film, done by Orville Stoeber, is so well done it had me looking around my living room and wanting to turn on a light. Zohra Lampert gives such a performance that you really believe she is on the brink of cracking and you feel sorrow for her because you can tell she really wants to be sane but circumstances just won't allow it. That's how well she puts across the eggshell sanity that she has. I instantly felt such horror and sadness for her as I watched her slip further into madness. Their friend Woody, drives a hearst, and is so very appropriate for Jessica to lie in as they travel. Later in the movie he develops an odd obsession for a tractor. Jessica is so fascinated by death that she has Woody stop at a cemetery so she can get a headstone etching. As she does the etching, she sees a blond girl in the distance who seems to be almost ghostly. The girl vanishes before she can get the others attention which is probably a good thing as the other two would not have believed her anyway.



In order to get to the farmhouse they have to board a ferry and cross a lake to get there. Known as "The Old Bishop Place" the area is desolate and the house is huge and foreboding. Jessica sees someone sitting in a chair on the porch but again doesn't say anything. Inside the house there is a woman at the top of the stairs. Duncan and Woody also see her and they catch her and she tells them she is a drifter and she thought the house was abandoned. Jessica, taking pity on the girl, decides to invite her to stay for dinner. Emily agrees and later, after dinner, she suggests the four of them have a seance to contact the spirits of the departed that may be in the house. During the seance Jessica hears the voices of the departed in her head and is saddened by them.



The next day, Jessica goes out for a swim with Duncan and Woody and she sees something in the water and hears a voice call to her "come to me". She screams and tries to swim away as Woody and Duncan come to her rescue they look but find nothing in the water, of course. Jessica begins to think Emily and Duncan are becoming too close but she also fears that her sanity is slipping away and it is becoming obvious to her husband. A trip to town that has creepy undertones and a visit to the local antique dealer later and we have an even bigger mystery brewing as Jessica notices every man in town has bandages.



Perhaps the Overlook Film Encyclopedia says it best when it calls Let's Scare Jessica To Death a "poetic and pervasive film" that "borrows from both the gothic and post Night of the Living Dead traditions to depict the death of the love generation as a group of dropouts find rural America less than accommodating". The film is subtle with it's scares. It doesn't jam anything into your face (except maybe a dead mouse disguised as a dead mole) and even the title is a little misleading as I thought it was going to be a big conspiracy to force the lead character, Jessica, back into a mental institute. Someone in their 20's may find this film boring, slow, or dated. However, that is what makes this movie so good for someone my age and it is also what makes me sad for todays horror genre.



The opening finds Jessica wondering to herself on the boat; "I sit here and I can't believe it happened. And yet I have to believe it. Dreams or nightmares, madness or sanity. I don't know which is which." And neither do we as the movie closes we still don't know if what we see happen really ever actually happened. That is the beauty and the triumph that is Let's Scare Jessica To Death.

Tradition



We're over here now, as I help to celebrate the month of October with not one but two movie reviews. First up is a 1970's movie that I had never viewed titled Last House on the Left. The first movie Wes Craven wrote and directed for the big screen. The audience was told in order to keep from fainting you need to keep telling yourself "it's only a movie". These were probably the same people who labeled the 1963 Vincent Price movie Diary of a Madman as "the most terrifying movie ever made". But I digress, LHOTL was produced by Scott S. Cunningham. Wes Craven would go on to make horror movie history with his Nightmare on Elm Street movies while Cunningham began the Friday the 13Th franchise.



LHOTL is an odd movie. From the very beginning something doesn't feel right. Usually this is a good thing for a horror movie but in this case it's not. What I mean is, as the movies female lead Mari Collingwood (Sandra Cassell) takes a shower on her 17Th birthday and gets dressed to go out to a concert by a group called Bloodlust there is nudity right away, I usually don't complain about nudity but she's supposed to be 17. That seems a little gratuitous lecherous to me. As she comes down stairs to leave she is confronted by her father Dr. John (Richard Towers) and he makes sure to mention that she is not wearing a bra and that can see her nipples through her shirt. It's just an odd way to start a movie for me.



On the way to the city, Mari and her friend Phyllis (Lucy Grantham) hear a radio report about a recent prison break, involving violent criminals by the names of Krug Stillo (David Hess who also does the music for the film, more on that later), his son Junior (Marc Sheffler; who's agent plays Dr. John), Sadie (Jeramie Rain) and Fred "Weasel" Podowski (Fred J. Lincoln who did mostly porno movies but treated us to his main stream craft here, lucky us). Upon arrival in the city, Mari and Phyllis walk around looking someone who might sell them some marijuana, a known horror movie no-no. Eventually, they run into Junior, who leads them back to an apartment, where they are immediately entrapped by the criminals. Fun and frivolity of the sick and twisted variety shortly ensues as back home, Mari's parents begin decorating for a surprise birthday party.



After a fun filled night the girls are locked inside the trunk of the criminals car as they attmpt to leave the country. Their car breaks down right in front of Mari's driveway, as luck would have it, but is ignored by the two sheriff deputies that are investigating the kidnapping of Mari. The criminals take Mari and Phyllis deep into the woods and continue the torture and other vile acts which include Phyllis being forced to urinate in her pants and Mari and Phyllis are then made to have sex with one another. Meanwhile, the bungling cops have realized the error of their ways and are going back for the criminals car. Unfortunately for them their own squad car runs out of gas and the two are forced to try and hitch a ride from a group of hippies who gives them the finger and yells at them that they hate cops. Next up is a chicken farmer and the two keystone wannabees luck doesn't seem to get any better.



I won't give you any more detail of the films, ah hem, plot only to say you will have to go see for yourself if you have not seen this. Believe it or not LHOTL is actually based on Ingmar Bergman's classic film The Virgin Spring which won an Oscar in 1960 for best foreign language film. How did that come all the way to this?

This film, along with the original Texas Chainsaw Massacre, is credited with being the two films that brought realism into horror films. Originally titled Night of Vengeance, the original script called for even more violence and brutality than actually made it into the film. What the hell is wrong with Wes Craven? The movie is actually well filmed and it does look more like a documentary of sorts than a produced movie, but the music, well, that's a whole different subject.



The film's soundtrack was written-and partially sung-by David Hess, who also played the main antagonist Krug. It is notable for being contrasted with the events on screen. For example, as the gang drives the two girls out into the countryside, an upbeat, almost comical tune plays and, after a rape scene, a soothing ballad plays.



Most of the acting is as horrible as the torture the girls go through. LHOTL was a huge hit at drive in movie theaters in the 70's and has a cult following around the globe to this day. It has only recently been made available in it's "uncut" form (17 seconds is still missing from the version available in the UK) in many countries. A remake of the movie is currently in the works. While watching it I was actually saying something like the tag line said I would only I was adding one word to the line "it's only a movie" and that word was "bad". I can only muster up one fang out of four for this one. I will be back with my second movie later.

Stop Lurking Day




While things work themselves out here, I wanted to take the opportunity to officially declare a special occasion. Stop Lurking Day which could turn out to be like a week, here on the site. Take the time to introduce yourself, make a comment, a question, even a critique. Hell, even if you want to tell me to go take a jump in the lake, you can do that as well. Even though I don't allow anonymous comments you can still make a Google account which is real easy to do (all you need is an email address) you don't need a blog or even a profile. Just register an email, pick a name, and start posting comments. This is a "flame free" blog. No comments are ever broiled, flamed, or fried. Carry on, that is all.

"This is usually the part when people start screaming." - Sylar



I'm sorry to announce that all connections with this blog to the television show LOST has been discontinued until further notice. I have also been informed that I must cease with all current and future Intel on the show or face further actions by a currently unknown entity that may or may not have connections to the show as well as it's producers and possibly ABC and/or it's affiliates as well. As further developments continue to unfold I will be sure to keep this blog informed. Until then all I can say is I must move on to another endeavor.



I have decided that the new endeavor will involve a television show that some people have emailed me about and questioned why I have not addressed previously. Circumstances have now led to me being able to discuss this show seeing as how I have a little bit of down time with my usual subject. The show I am talking about is HEROES which is almost if not as good as the show I usually blog about. HEROES was created by Tim Kring who is an old film school buddy of J.J. Abrahms. Oh, hope I'm allowed to say that. The two have stated that if they could, they would love to cross their two series over to one another. Seeing as how HEROES is on NBC and the other is not, makes it nearly impossible but a great idea nonetheless.



For those of you that do not know much about the show, the seedy looking guy pictured above is Gabirel or better known as "Sylar". As one of the main characters as well as the shows leading bad guy, it would only figure that he is also one of my favorite characters on the show. Look for him playing a young Spock in the new Star Trek movie that J.J. Abrahms is currently working on. Jeez, I guess I'm allowed to mention that too, one can never be too certain these days. In the shows storyline most of the characters have some sort of superhuman ability. Sylar, the main antagonist, and a serial killer, uses his ability to kill others with abilities and is then able to consume their power. It is vaguely alluded to that the way he does this is to eat their brains but it was recently changed to that he uses his adaptability to analyze a brains function that gives the power and then adapts his own brain to create the power. The act of taking off the top of the head in the process of analyzing the brain is usually what kills his victims. He also usually gets most of the shows really good quotes.



This man is Noah Bennet. Unlike most of the characters, he does not have any powers. At first glance, Noah Bennet appears to be an ordinary businessman who works at the Primatech Paper Company and lives in Odessa, Texas, with his wife and two children. However, he and his associates have actually traveled the world for a number of years investigating superhuman phenomena. Bennet claims that he assists them in learning to use their powers, although there are sometimes unintended consequences, such as losing his perfect vision. The loss of his perfect vision is what gives the character his nickname in the show "HRG" or horn rimmed glasses. This is the name he was given before we discovered his name. His true agenda and overall affiliation are still mysterious. In response to Matt Parkman's inquiries as to whether he works for the FBI or the CIA, Bennet said he doesn't work for "any organization that has initials." Matt Parkman is a New York City police officer and is a telepath. Parkman is played by actor Greg Grunberg, hmmm, can you think of what part he might have played before he took this role? Yes, he was the pilot of Oceaninc 815. Do I have to add a disclaimer for that too?

Bennet is played by actor Jack Coleman, who I have been a big fan of for years. From his early days as Steve Carrington on Dynasty (where he played one of the first gay characters on television in) in 1982. To his short stint on a show called Nightmare Cafe in 1992 and his role in Steven King's Kingdom Hospital series which aired in 2004. He is also the great-great-great-great nephew of Benjamin Franklin.





Noah Bennet's daughter Claire, played by jail bait turned hotty actress Hayden Panettiere, is a cheerleader with the power of rapid cellular regeneration. In lay mans terms that means she can heal real fast. Claire is not Bennet's biological daughter. Bennet adopted Claire as a baby after he thought her mother had died in a fire that she caused with her pyrokinesis ability. Sylar recently acquired Claire's healing abilities but in the process did not kill her. When Claire asked him why he didn't kill her he answers her "Even if I wanted to, I couldn't kill you Clare. You can't die. And now apparently I can't either.". So not only did he not kill her it seems he didn't want to alluding to the fact that possibly Sylar may not be as bad as once thought. After all it was the first season that the series used the catch phrase "Save the cheerleader. Save the world." Which they did, but the world still needs saving.





And so might this blog.

"What are you gonna do, beam us up?"

The filming for the new season of LOST is well under way. If all of the incoming recon is correct, it would infer that they are currently filming in the neighbourhood of episode 3. There are some really cool photos that I found from some folks that live on the big island.

Here is the lot that the crew keeps all of the LOST vehicles wrangled in:



Check it out, 3 different DHARMA vans.


The next picture is of a crew member taking apart a window set for Simon's Butcher Shop. Now who do we know that had a connection to a butcher shop? Yeah, Charlie's father was a butcher and I think his name was Simon. Will we be seeing another Charlie episode this season?




The last picture, I need to say a few things first. I've viewed many of the episodes of LOST multiple times looking for clues, hints, anything that might tell me something more than I already know. Recently, LOST began airing in syndication on cable channel G4. I happened to catch the very beginning of the Pilot episode again for something like the fifth or sixth time. TPTB have said there is a huge clue in the Pilot episode. Not really saying what the clue is or exactly what the clue reveals just that one is there. While watching the episode I noticed something I never did before.

After Jack runs to the crash scene, aside from all the extras (red shirts) we see the following people in this order: Charlie walking around looking real dazed and/or high, Jin screaming in Korean, looking for Sun I would imagine (Why wasn't she right next to him? Another reason why this is the '06 going back to the island in my theory, just what number trip is this I'm not sure yet), Michael yelling for Walt (again, why are two people who were sitting next to each other on the plane not near each other after the crash? I know it was a plane crash but c'mon already!) Then we see Shannon screaming and basically just being Shannon. Next is Locke, who helps pull the man out from under the wreckage. Then we see Claire yelling for help, as Jack goes to help Claire he notices Boone giving CPR to Rose. Then Hurley appears and Jack asks him to watch over Claire. After all of this, Jack then gets a sewing kit and goes off on his own to tend to his wounds which is when Kate wanders out of the jungle and into the series. My recap of the first few minutes of LOST will end there.

Excluding Jack, the first characters we see, up until the moment Jack meets Kate, who I also have not included in this, which is my own list, if you will, in order are:

Charlie
Jin
Michael
Shannon
Locke
Claire
Boone
Rose
Hurley

So what does all this mean? Charlie = dead Michael = dead Shannon = dead Locke = dead (at the end of season 4 it looks like) Boone = Dead. Lets go back to Claire for a moment, after watching this and rethinking all of my theories in the past, I now say Claire is dead and the Claire we saw in the cabin with Christian at the end of last season is a ghost Claire. Moving on to Rose, Rose is very much alive on the island at the end of last season or at least up until the moment when the island disappears. She's still alive because in essence, as far as the island is concerned, she already died once. You don't give CPR to someone who is alive, so Rose = dead (for a few minutes at least, but not so much now) Jin, we still don't know about, even though we've seen his grave, but I also know he was spotted in Hawaii filming some scenes for this season. All that equals, in my minds eye at least, Jin = dead. Now the last person on the list, Hurley, an 'O6-er. Obviously alive both at the end of last season as well as the beginning of this upcoming season five. TPTB have already hinted towards the fact that at least one of the 'O6 may not live long enough to make it back to the island. Initially, I picked Sayid to be the one who will die in the process of getting the rest of the 'O6 back to the island. Hey, it could happen, I've come to grips with all of the deaths that have happened or could happen. Even Sawyer's, but we know that's not happening. So that leaves me with one other person that may meet their doom before the 'O6 get back to the island:



This is a picture Jorge Garcia took with a local who was around during the filming of episodes 1 and 2 for season 5. Looks like Hurley has a little blood on him, would you say? Looks like a possible gunshot wound I would definitely say. BTW, check out the stunt double right behind Jorge. Before anyone asks, no the guy that was in the picture with Jorge before I cropped him out is not giving "the finger", he's giving the "hang loose" hand sign that's very popular in Hawaii and elsewhere.

So I'm predicting it today, Hurley = dead before the end of season 5. I know there will be people who say I'm wrong, but if I predicted Charlie's death in season two I would have been told I was crazy. Or Michael's at the end of season 3 for that matter.

Rage on

"Good thing I'm traveling with my doctor then, huh?"



OK, here is the first teaser for the new season of LOST follow this link:

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XCVCzplSa6A

For some reason it's not linking right so just copy and paste.

and read along with me and my theories on the video.

The beginning is a little dumb but it's the setup for the real video. The fat kid is an actor playing a part. This was something that was shown not shown at the Comic Con in San Diego but was filmed there and is considered a viral video but it is fodder (meaning it fits in with the LOST story. About one minute in the real video begins. About 1:46 in try and pause it to get a good view of what looks like the jungle on the island. 30 years in the future? About 2:10 we see that Pierre still has both arms. 2:20 violent purge mentioned. 2:30 flexes his arm like he knows he is going to loose it. 2:36 voice heard saying "none of that matters" sounds like Jack's voice possibly. 2:38 second voice says :doesn't matter just get to it" sounds like Daniel Faraday. Also in all of that a "credible source" or something like that is mentioned by Chang. 2:58 - "DHARMA initiative must be reconstituted". 3:08 "time is not of the essence, it is the essence." 3:24 voice says "they are never going to see this" 3:35 video transmission ends and the comic con can be seen again and the person video taping the transmission is "caught and chased".

It's going to be a hell of a season 5!

"You got a spot of nothing on your chin there."

SPOILER ALERT: THIS POST MAY CONTAIN SPOILERS AND/OR RUMORS FOR THE 5TH SEASON


Filming for the new season started August 17th so as you should expect I have some info to pass on to you.

As some people have guessed I did give a spoiler out already for the new season. A few posts ago was titled Because You Left which is the title of the first episode of the new season. Because You Left , according to TPTB, deals with several of the Oceanic Six coming to grips with their need to return to the island but on their own terms. If true, this means season five will get right down to it and do away with the issues of Jack 'convincing' Kate to return. In this sense the statement Because You Left deals with not a specific set of circumstances, but multiple character's circumstances.

Daniel Dae Kim spotted in Hawaii spoke briefly about his role in the new season and said that he is back for filming and that he and Matthew Fox were going to be the first to shoot scenes for this upcoming season. He also said that he has been told although he will not be as prominent this season when he does feature it will be at "pivotal points in the story". Could we have a repeat of last seasons premiere with Charlie coming back from the dead?

House the film crew was spotted filming in and around. Could be a new house we have not seen before or is this the outside of Kate's off island house?


Looks like we could get a lot of Richard this season since it is rumored that Nestor Carbonell has signed on for a full season.

Depending on how ABC’s Wednesday and Thursday night lineups do in the fall, we could be seeing LOST back on Wednesday nights. Nothing is confirmed and probably won’t be until at least around Thanksgiving or even later. If it does happen, then premier date for the new season is slated to be February 4th.

At the Sand Diego Comic Con in July TPTB gave the following info:

The whole notion of "flashbacks" and "flash-forwards" will be reinvented, suggesting that upcoming episodes will span multiple time periods and perspectives. "When season five starts, you won't know when or where you are. And the way we tell stories will be different too. Also we have the guy who makes the whooshing sound for us and we would not want to put him out of work."

The nameless extras in the Zodiac boat with Farraday, stranded with the island gone, may be toast, but "things are looking up" for Farraday himself. Faraday's notebook will play a prominent role this season.

We'll finally get Rousseau's back-story, but Darlton cautioned that it would be wrong to call it a "flashback" episode.


Jack's Bronco looks to be in the same place it was for the outside courtroom scenes for Eggtown. Does it not?


More from TPTB:

The island did not travel when the hatch imploded, but something did happen.

Vincent the Dog is fine and will be in season five — and will survive until the end of the show.

The Jack/Kate/Sawyer triangle is central to the show, and we'll see more interesting permutations of it over the next two seasons. And Kate will see Sawyer again.

There will be some more Libby info this season (yeah right we’ve all heard this one before!)

Drug plane or a new one on the island?



Looks like we will have to wait until episode 3 to see any Locke or Richard stuff. In the past few days Terry O’Quinn and Nestor Carbonell were seen filming. During the filming Locke was seen high up in a banyan tree, and get this another small plane (similar to the Nigerian drug plane) was seen crashed on the island. Looks like on the plane is a new villain for this season. All of this is still considered rumor I have to remind you but it is also said that Locke gets shot in the thigh. No word on who does the shooting.

The actors that play Sawyer, Juliet, Rose, Bernard, Charlotte and Miles have all been spotted filming scenes, no word on what episode it is for.





The previous picture was taken outside of a Hawaiian hotel. The scene being shot featured Hurley and Sayid seemingly to take place after they leave the mental institute at the end of last season. Check out the pile of boxes on the ground. Somebody taking a plunge a few stories up?




There are a couple props added for this season and they are huge. The LOST producers are looking for two ships, both need to be seaworthy. The main one they wanted was a big black ominous looking ship, but the ship company didn't have anything that was even remotely similar to what they described. However, they booked another ship and it's going to be a chase ship which goes after the big black one. The chase ship is the oldest ship in the marina and it looks like it's from the 1500's. Do you know why they would want boats that looked to be several hundred years old? BLACK ROCK flashback?!?!

One of the biggest stories so far is the return of Michelle Rodriguez. That’s right Ana Lucia is slated to return for the show for at least one episode. Sources say it is for the second episode of the season, this is where it gets interesting since Cheech Marin is also scheduled to be a guest star in the second episode of the new season. Looks like Hurley will be seeing some new ghosts. Or there could be other explanations but I’m leaning towards a Hurley episode for the second episode of the new season.

That's all for now.

The Countdown Begins!

"I ain't gonna 'give me' you nothing."




It's official, so I can announce that from here on out this blog will be only for LOST related posts. If you want to read other thoughts that are going on in my head and events going on go to this site:
http://nameyourowndamnblog.blogspot.com/


it's a new blog that I have been invited (by my friend Russel) to help moderate and post on. In a world as technologically advance as we are today, he still is a little rough around the edges when it comes to being computer savvy. Especially if it doesn't involve porn or cars. So for the Sawyer quotes, episode recaps, season reviews, and spoilers and rumors about LOST you can still come here but for fart jokes, movie lists, and any and everything else go to the new blog. Two blogs??? Can I do it? Will I do it? Well, at least Russel will be posting over on the new one as well. That might not be such a good thing though. I won't ruin anything for you, I'll just let you read some of his posts. When he actually adds some that is. Please to enjoy
