Now Part 2 will be about The Moth and Confidence Man, after your replies got me thinking again. ;-)

Your points about White Rabbit reminded me of something else I wanted to write about Jack and Christian.

I know I’ve already written a lot about White Rabbit, because it’s incredibly underrated to me, but after watching it again, I just had to post a few things:

Yeah, the gun would be the big issue. We only saw his childhood briefly, but I’d suspect that Hurley didn’t grow up in the best neighborhood and saw some things that made him queasy around blood.

Yeah, I’d agree that all of the survivors were given a gift; it’s just that they weren’t sure (especially this early in the show) what to do with it.

So since “we have to go back” still, I watched the Pilot again on Monday and had a few thoughts:

Re: Field of Dreams, yes I think you would like the movie, if you don’t mind it being centered around a baseball theme. I’d say it definitely has some elements of the afterlife, without giving much away.

Here’s the other recent post:

Okay, stef, I found my most recent posts so hopefully this will be easy for you to find...

Hey stef, somehow I managed to find my way back in, so here’s one little bonus post, at least for now. :-)

When I started writing these in 2015, I was in the middle of rewatching Season 6, so I wasn't reviewing based on instant reactions to each episode. Now that I've gone through the whole series again, and reviewed as I watched, I've found that there's been a lot more to discuss. And in some ways, it was almost as…

For me, Kate giving Jack "permssion" was simply about the last line she said while he was stitching her bullet wound. Jack had to be thinking about killing Locke already, but Kate confirming that this had to be done cemented his plans to move forward. In this case, it's not monstrous to want to kill Locke after what…

Sorry if I didn't make that last part clear: I had suggested previously that Jacob could have been in love with someone before Richard got to the Island, and then the MiB killed that person, and Jacob was still dealing with his anger.

Someone on Lostpedia edited the synopsis to say that the music accompanying the grieving was "A Touching Moment", but I've been listening to all the soundtracks before I watch the finale, and it was definitely a brief portion of "Flying High".

That makes sense why Widmore was crucial to Jacob's plan, because Desmond wasn't going to willingly come back. And yeah, I think MiB could have definitely destroyed those cages so the group wasn't much safer in there.

"Re: being flawed: That always seemed to me to be psychological manipulation on Jacob's part. Everybody's flawed; everybody's lonely in one way or another; everybody has their share of brokenness."

"She knows the two kids well, but at some times it seems that she's almost able to read their minds. Even at 13, the Boy in Black seems resigned to her all-pervasive influence."

I talked about this in the Everybody Loves Hugo review, and as much as I love this show, it's amazing the impact that episodes like this one still have. Specifically, as you might suspect, I'm talking about what happens in the sub and the aftermath.

It does seem like in this hour, as well as the next, that they're going from day to night pretty quickly, but if the show didn't compress that time into what we see, it might be just a lot of sitting around and waiting, which I think has been the complaint of those who still talk about Season 6.

I appreciated seeing Creed and Rocky Balboa in the theater simply because I got into the first five Rocky movies well after they had been originally released, and I never thought I would get the chance to see a new version in the theater.
