There's something I love about this painting ...

Wired Magazine has a great bunch of interviews and articles about our favorite show, including an artist who did some LOST paintings like the one here. Check them out!

Latest Episode

Okay, so that whole episode was great, but I am not lying that the tears were streaming down my face when Jin and Sun were reunited. Yay!!!
What did you think of the episode?
Do you think Desmond is the person who has to set everything right by leading people in the right direction so that eventually the two timelines will align?

LOST ENDS

I don't want LOST to end. I just don't. I don't want it to end. I don't. Why does it have to end? Why? It's LOST. LOST doesn't end. Does it? No. Here is what I propose.

LOST does not end. It's the most intriguing series television has ever known. It has no beginning. So therefore, it has no end. What, you thought it all started when Oceanic 815 crashed on an island and Jack opened his eye? No. The forces of good and evil have been at work long before. Maybe since before time began, even. Whether or not the smoke monster gets off the island in the end doesn't much matter. No matter what can happen, he can never die. Jacob and nemesis will fight each other for all eternity. The setting of their epic battle is moot. Whether it is this island or the island of Manhattan. Son of a bitch!

So they tell us LOST is ending on May 23. Don't believe it. LOST will never end. We will not be given every desirable answer and there will always be room for discussion. Yes, some characters' stories will end. And I just know I'm going to end up crying over someone. Goddamnit, it better not be Hurley. Seriously, JJ, if Hurley dies, I'm coming for you. Don't do it. With their demises, we will lose pieces of our selves. But wherever each character's fate takes him, they will ALL be playing their parts. Everyone means something. Everyone matters.

Bring on the final 5 episodes! I eagerly await the culmination of 6 confusing years! What do you think? Will LOST end with a bang or a whimper? Will good conquer evil? Will everything make sense? Will the universes align? Will there be one final "eff you, viewer" where we discover that the alternate universe we have been experiencing all year long is actually OUR universe and WE are the true candidates. WE are part of LOST's neverending story. ... Or will it just end in Black like The Sopranos?

Will we be satisfied???

Did anyone see that coming?

By "that" I mean Ilana's death! How unexpected! I didn't think the writers would use that death by dynamite thing again.

I am a little frustrated that all the strong, powerful women on the show don't seem to last very long, though. Ilana seemed headed for heroic greatness for a second there. She had a plan to stop the MIB from leaving the island, and she was about to carry that plan out. But no, Hurley had to distract her, and she had to be blown up.

Let's take a look at other strong, powerful women who've met their untimely demise.

First there was Ana Lucia. Sure, she ticked off the producers by her drunken shenanigans. But Desmond was accused of worse, yet he's still on the show. Ana Lucia was pretty much the leader of the tail section. She wasn't afraid to kick butt. But no, Michael killed her when she let her guard down.

Then there was Danielle. This French chick managed to survive on this scary island without going too mad for many years. She could set traps, elude the Others, and put up a good fight. In the end, though, she was shot dead by the mercenaries as her daughter watched.

Remember Naomi? I do, not just because she was a strong character, but because the actress who portrayed her was on a show I used to watch, "Las Vegas." Naomi, if you don't recall, was one of the mercenaries, who, along with Miles and Daniel, supposedly came to the island to save the Oceanic survivors. Locke didn't trust who she was, so he struck her with a knife, and she later died. Poor Naomi. She had a strong personality and tons of military experience.

Nadia, Sayid's love, was a minor character, but the girl rebelled against Hussein's government, which led to her imprisonment and torture. And then she got hit by a bus.

And then there was Juliet. She's now saving Earth from aliens, but before that, she worked as a fertility doctor, lived with the Others on the island, probably did some evil bidding for them, kissed Jack and then Sawyer, knew how to use weapons, and then detonated the hydrogen bomb by striking the bomb with a rock after falling down the well.

Now we're just stuck with slutty Kate, crazy Claire, and whiny Sun. Oh, Ilana, you will be missed.
