LOST Season 3 Finale

The LOST finale is here tonight, and I myself am elated. My prediction: Locke will survive (he was shot in the kidney he no longer has), join up with half of the others that don't trust Ben any longer, and go to the 815er's camp to try to warn them about Ben. Sayid and the gang will think it is Ben's group and fight them instead. As for Charlie...who knows, but he won't die. I think that Desmond's the one that really is supposed to die. And I'm going out there, but somebody's going to pull a serious con on the 815ers tonight, and my call is Jack. I think that's how we will be left for the next nine months: trying to figure out why Jack betrayed to group.

Any other predictions?

Calling All Lost Fans

Last week's episode was pretty remarkable on all accounts, I think everyone agrees. And even better are all the hidden tidbits that fanatics have been finding in it all week long. I won't go in depth with them, but I just wanted to highlight my favorite that has surfaced in the last week. Apparently, if you play the audio from the Clockwork Orange scene (where Karl is being hypnotized by that crazy video) backwards, it reveals a hidden message consistent with a lot of the other hidden nuggets. Listen for yourself:



Things like that are the reason that LOST is such a powerful show. Not only is it built around solid, complex, dynamic characters, not only is the whole context of the story continually evolving, not only is the mythology unbelievably believable, but the writers go the extra mile to come up with things like these to fuel the craze and to create the fanatics (like myself). Kudos to you, David Lindelof and Carlton Cuse. You make me very happy.

Colbert For President

When will it stop?

Now, Ben and Jerry's is rumored to be developing an ice cream flavor themed after Comedy Central's Stephen Colbert. Red, white, and blue colors are predicted...

This coming on the heels of him winning a bet with the mayor of the Canadian town, Oshawa, after the Saginaw Spirit, the youth hockey team with a mascot named after Colbert (Steagle Colbeagle the Eagle) won against Oshawa 5-4. As a result, Oshawa will have an official "Stephen Colbert Day" declared on the mayor's birthday.

A Praise Report...

New LOST Intro

LOST will return in less than a week... and a new intro to the show has already leaked on the web. Looks like ABC is taking a different approach to the second part of this season...
