The actor playing Locke has also had a film career, though not so much of late, so he may be very grateful to be where he’s at. The actor playing Michael has had a very small film career, but maybe he’s getting greedy. Jin was in Crash, but has mostly been guest starring on television, so being a regular probably suits him just fine. The hobbit was depressed after not working hardly at all after Lord of the Rings, so he's probably pleased as punch to be a regular on a series.

I really hope Sayid isn’t a goner, but I’d almost have to guess it’s him if the rumor is true. If LOST is conflicting with movie offers, and an actor has had to turn down parts, he'd probably demand a much higher salary, or he'd prefer to go on to what he considers to be bigger and better things in film.

Spoiler:

I was thinking it was Boone, then I read that he was NOT a happy camper about being killed off. Maybe they'll bring him back as one of the Others.

I hope it isn't Syaid or Sawyer. I could melt in their eyes........

Reply to EH re: her reply to me.

Spoiler:

I'm sure people who died this season will appear in flashbacks... But I don't think that some of those who have died are dead. I think this island is very bizarre and powerful/magical and some of those who are dead aren't. I'm thinking that somewhere in the show there will be a showdown with The Others and some of their own will have become The Others.

I have no spoilers. But Wednesday night I was sitting around not tired yet and the first episode came on in re-run and it's ALL YOUR FAULT that I watched it, my husband watched it, and now it's like some horrible drug and we need more.

Damn you all!

Dammit, I still haven't seen the pilot. I didn't realize they were reairing episodes. Rerun schedules are so screwy these days.

Hurry up and come out on DVD, LOST!

I typically don't enjoy watching reruns that I've seen, but this show is different. You pick up a lot of foreshadowing that you didn't see before because you know more about the characters, the island, etc.

Thoroughly enjoyed watching the pilot again.

The finale was so frustrating because I didn't feel I learned anything. In fact, I thought a lot of stuff was sort of pointless like Hurley's running through the airport. I feel like I'm watching X-Files all over again. Nothing ever gets resolved!! Which means I'll be waiting with baited breath for next season!

I taped it. I can get it to you somehow if you want. I think the DVD comes out at the end of the month. Now we need a DVD player so we can watch LOST at the park.

We did learn a couple of things:

Spoiler:

1. There is, somewhere WAY below the island's surface, some kind of underground structure that is man made. And by the sounds of the "monster", it's at least partially mechanical. There's probably a community of people living there. And they're obviously not ape people, if they can build crazy machine monsters and...oh, whatever.

2. We learned that the French woman is crazy, but not so crazy that she was making up that crap about the smoke.

3. Michelle Rodriguez! And she'll probably be back, playing an important role next season.

4. Hurley running through the airport proves that he's always been able to haul ass despite his girth, and it's not just weird Island mojo giving him super powers....like Locke.

5. Sawyer looks really good tearing off his shirt and playing hero.

6. Jin looks very good kissing his wife.

7. Sayid looks very good running.

8. Charlie looks like a spaz when he runs.

9. Even on a mystical Island of What the Fvck, a junkie can find his fix.

10. Jack looks really hot when he's tearing up.

11. Kate is easily fooled for a seemingly street smart gal. Bait and switch, Kate! C'mon!!!!!

12. Some of the other survivors aren't stunningly beautiful, so Hurley is not alone. Not alone! (Personally, I think he's adorable, but he's no Sawyer, Jack, Sayid, Jin, etc.)

13. Black Rock = pirate ship? Hurrah!

I read a review at TWOP that basically said, "What a great hour of television that would have been," so you're not the only one who thought it was a bit bloated.

Actually, I believe the DVD is being released in early September.
