time and relative dimension in space

It's Valentine's Day, so I'm rewatching Lost's The Constant, otherwise known as the single most romantic hour of television ever. No I will not hear argument on this.

The phone call kills me every single time, no matter how many times I watch it. The way it's filmed? Their faces? And the way that even Sayid's heart breaks when the power source goes dead? It's perfect. I would literally not change a single thing about that scene. Or the entire episode.

I should do a full Lost rewatch again. But so much TV. So little time.

Also I watched the Building 23 featurette with Michael Emerson going around talking to the creative team, and mostly what it did was remind me that Lost action figures exist and back in the day I really wanted some of the McFarlane figures but they were hella expensive. And then I went to eBay and looked them up and they've actually got a lot of them for reasonable prices? (Like $15 - $30 a figure.)

Admittedly I'm dead broke and even reasonable prices are too expensive for me, but, man, if I ever have disposable income again that...might be a thing that happens.

There are also some cheaper action figures that are really terrible and don't look a thing like the characters they're meant to represent. I'll stick with dreaming about owning the McFarlanes.

Five down...one to go.

Next season: answers! more questions! the introduction of the flashsideways! the return of Claire! And, of course, The End.

I have crossed the halfway point in my rewatch! In terms of seasons. In terms of episodes I think I crossed it a day or so ago.

I have such mixed feelings about season three.

On to season four and the freighter team!

I finished season one of my Lost rewatch, so, some thoughts.

On to season two!

It's May 23rd.

So I'm rewatching the final five episodes of LOST.

Mostly it's reminding me how much I miss this show. :(

So I watched The Rebel Flesh again today! And having now seen it while properly conscious, I think... I need to see the second half of this story before I can say whether I like it or not. I love the Rory storyline, though. Rorrrry. And it raises lots of interesting questions and storylines. But whether it resolves those questions/storylines satisfactorily remains to be seen.

So yesterday was the one-year anniversary of the end of LOST. I'm a bit shocked by that. It can't possibly have been a year, can it?

I miss my mindfuck-y show and all its pretty people. :( What are Emilie de Ravin, Henry Ian Cusick, and all the rest of that pretty, pretty cast up to these days?

28. Sung by the musical character that's so bad/cruel/evil (etc.) you love them OR Sung by the musical character you love to hate.

"Dentist", Little Shop Of Horrors. A rather fascinating fictional jackass.

It really brightens my day when I get random happy reviews on old obscure fics that I'd half-forgotten. ♥


Also, I'm sure everyone's heard about this by now, but 26,000 people won $150 each in the MegaMillions lotto by playing the LOST numbers. Oh, real life, never stop imitating fiction. ♥♥

My LOST S6 DVDs arrived! \o/ Earlier than expected, yayyy!

So of course I immediately went for the last disc to watch the bonus features, because I'm me, and oh. Oh Malcolm David Kelly. Why must you make me feel so old. I remember when you were little and adorable and now you're All Grown Up.

Also, The New Man In Charge jossed some of my headcanon re: Walt but that's okay I can make new headcanon. (It also made me sad re: Walt, but imagining stuff that happens After is cheering.)

Anyway now I'm watching all of S6 in order with stops for audio commentaries. Yay.

Random musing about LOST of the day:

Give me a Watsonian explanation, LJ!
