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.

Twelve years ago on September 22, 2004, the first half of the pilot episode of LOST first aired.

It does not feel like it's been twelve years.

Lost rewatch: Bonus features and summing up )

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.

Lost rewatch season 6 )

One more post to come; I'm now watching all the deleted scenes I skipped during the rewatch, and I also want to sum up my thoughts and feelings on the show as a whole.

Five down...one to go.

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

Ah, season four. Otherwise known as the year of the writer's strike. It feels really short, which shouldn't be surprising since it's almost half the length of the previous seasons.

Lost rewatch season 4 )

Next up (starting Monday, because weekends are apparently for getting stuff done): Season 5, the Oceanic Six, and time travel.

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.

Lost rewatch: season three )

On to season four and the freighter team!

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

I'm rewatching Lost because I feel like it, and man, I always forget how much I love Michael's passive-aggressive "Brian said you could have [Vincent]". It's so great! Yes, Michael, get back at your ex's husband by giving his dog away.

...I have so many Lost icons and so little opportunity to use them.

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. :(

It's the two-year anniversary of the end of LOST so now I'm rewatching "The End" and being quietly miserable.

Why are you gone, show?

Whyyyy?

(Also, have I ever mentioned how much I enjoy Kate's reaction to the name "Christian Shephard"? Because that was EVERY MEMBER OF THE AUDIENCE'S reaction about six years prior.)

(Also also, flashforward!Desmond will never not be amusingly creeptastic. And yet that still does not relieve my misery at missing this show.)

(Also also also, Team Hurley forever.)

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.

So HYPOTHETICALLY if one were to genderflip LOST, how would one adjust Claire's storyline so it both makes sense with a male!Claire and also still resembles the original storyline?

This post brought to you by two genderswap picspams popping up on my flist in the last half hour.

I think I'm developing a problematic addiction to hypothetical AUs.

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.
chicafrom3: photo of the TARDIS (tv: l: claire got a hat)
Finally (finally!) earned enough Amazon gift cards to be able to buy the LOST S6 DVDs. Yay! Now I just have to wait for them to get here. Trying to decided if I want to immediately do a full series rewatch or rewatch S6 now and then do the full series later. Probably will do S6 now, as I am a sucker for instant gratification.

Meanwhile, I have to figure out who I'm going to get to write me letters of recommendation and also write a statement of purpose (??) and also contact my last colleges for transcripts for my grad school app. Woo.

Random musing about LOST of the day:

cut for series finale spoilers )

Give me a Watsonian explanation, LJ!

1. Reply to this post with the word PIRATES (or NINJAS) and I will pick six of your icons.
2. Make a post (including this info) and talk about the icons I chose.
3. Other people can then comment to you and make their own posts.
4. This will create a never ending cycle of icon glee.
