I have come to terms that this is probably just a Lost blog for the most part.

The Return of LOST

Tomorrow night is LOST night!!!! I am interested to see if the flash-forwards will focus on more then one character. Who knows!!! So far my husband and I believe that the freighter people are hired by Charles Widmore. He is super rich and my have some ties or interests on the island. Locke has gone completely nuts, or has he? Maybe the island really does speak to him and he is clued into something that we are totally unaware of. I think the ties between Libby, Desmond, and Hurley are going to be revealed this season. That will be intense! I seriously cannot wait until 9pm tomorrow evening!!!!

Open Letter to NBC

Dear NBC,

You really stink! Why do you have to cancel well written tv dramas and replace them with more Law & Order! First you cancelled Journeyman and now The 4400. I am sure it is because you need to make room for more L&O or that stupid Choir show staring Michael Bolton. Who in their right mind likes Michael Bolton??? Do you think the mighty Bolton will increase ratings? I highly doubt it. I doubt anyone still owns or even listens to his music. As for Law & Order (any version) has jumped the proverbial shark years ago. If you want more viewers create better shows or at least give decent drama’s a chance.

Thanks,
Me

Lost Blu-Ray Edition

The fact that Lost has been released on Blu-Ray has sealed the deal for us. Yup we are caving in and picking up a 40 gig PS3. We were given a generous Amazon giftcard and decided to look into Blu-Ray players. We first thought it be best to buy a Blu-Ray drive for the computer and stream media via Media Center. Then we realized that we would not be able to get the full audio/video capabilities. Next we looked into standalone Blu-Ray players. The cheapest model we found has a bunch of serious issues which make it not worth the cash. The next model up was way too expensive. So the PS3 40 gig is what we settled on. A much cheaper alternative to a Blu-Ray player. Its quiet, fast, and runs cool. We get Spider-Man 3 (lame) plus another 5 dvds free! This will not be our “gaming machine” but we will probably pick up a few PS3 exclusives such as MGS4 or Tekken 6.

Not Rambo

The Lost season finale was awesome. The best moments were Hurley driving the Van, Bernard’s speech, and Penny’s transmission. So now it is 9 months until any questions will be answered. Maybe in 2 months a few questions will be answered at Comic-Con but I doubt it. So I have a feeling that the Losties aren’t allowed to have any contact with each other back home. Why else would Kate and Jack have to meet in secret. Plus wouldn’t there have been other Losties at the mystery funeral? Hmmm. Jack’s flashforwards were pretty interesting. What happened to push him so far over the edge? Who was Naomi working for? Did Jack really put the Losties in danger though we know at least he and Kate eventually go home. Is Kate married to Sawyer? So many questions!

Cheese

2 hour Lost season finale is at 9pm tonight. Some drunken goat cheese and crackers were bought for snacking. Paaaaaarty!

Not awesome

I am a nerd and/or dork because I mostly blog about Lost. This in fact makes me anything but awesome. Just thought that I would share that nugget.

I’m Totally Lost

Last night’s episode of Lost was insane. At first I really thought the show had chickened out with Jacob being invisible and/or Ben being slightly schizo. However this morning while surfing the tailsection I came across the screen capture of what looks to be a man sitting in the chair. Woah! Is this smokie or a ghost of someone else? Maybe it is John Locke himself. However I now believe that there is no way Ben can communicate with “Jacob.” Why do you think Ben was so angry when Jacob told Locke “help me.” Ben could not hear it! Jacob is so angry because Ben is holding him in the creepy cabin against his will. I do have a problem with Dharma being shown as a bunch of boring hippies with no real reason to be on the island except for self realization and enlightenment. Another reveal was that there was never a virus/sickness that killed the Dharma workers, it was just the “hostiles” taking back their island. And what is up with Richard not aging a day in 30+ years and why is he taking orders from Ben. I seriously hope that we are not left in the dark about all of the new revelations. I can’t wait for next week!

Spring Flu

I have been sick since Monday. I doubt that I have the flu but it sure feels like it. Spent most of the weekend on the 360 playing Dead Rising, Gears of War, and some random puzzlers. Today we took a break from gaming and watched Medicine Man in HD!! Not the best movie but entertaining nontheless.
