But as I said above, even though Faraday's death seems to reconfirm "whatever happened, happened" there is still a glaring question about why Ellie admitted to Widmore that she doesn't know what's going on anymore. Why? What if there is something to Faraday's theory of choices? For example: Charlie was meant to die?…

The Hawking/Widmore chat seemed to suggest that Hawking usually knows everything but she admits she doesn't know what's going on anymore. I think the fact that Desmond is in the hospital and Penny is there is why she is upset. Could it be that Ben was never supposed to be at the marina and attack them? Could it be…

You've Got Mail
I take offense! That's my all-time favorite romantic comedy! You've got Greg Kinnear with Foucault and Benjamin on his brain and Tom Hanks has so many inexplicable facial expressions and there are weird transitional scenes and Meg Ryan has that strange sequence in a trench coat when she's sick. And…

Dorothy and Sophia were my favorite Golden Girls and they're both gone now. I've grown up watching them on Golden Girls reruns and I'm glad they will live on through my DVD box sets.

Can't believe I forgot the following after going through other posts!

My sad theme is loneliness
Maybe it's my own loneliness in life that gets me down, and I just respond to it with tears when it's portrayed in a movie, but the biggest tear-jerker movies for me in life have dealt with loneliness on some level, I think.

What I plan to indoctrinate my children into:
I have not scrolled the comments section at all but I will hazard a guess that I am not alone in this; as a vocal member of the Harry Potter generation, there is no doubt in my mind I will be reading my books out loud when the day comes that I have a little kiddie in my…

I think whoever the poster was meant that Widmore told Desmond where to find Eloise. Like she was conveniently sitting in his Roledex. If Widmore is but a phone call or friendly visit away from her, then that suggests there is something going on there. And if she is happy to help Benjamin, well that also says…

I agree that the wheel is the island's big prize possession. But so is Smokey's rabbit hole. And Smokey. And whatever this Temple is. Half the time I think it'll be another Dharma station. But I digress. I think the key to realizing that the wheel is so important is the fact that the Orchid was being built in Grid…

As far as love triangles go, no third corner can come between Ben and Locke. Unless they're brothers. Then my hope for a gay spin-off series is shot.

I proposed the theory that Locke was dead from the crash and resurrected in the first episode last week.

Back to Hurley and Star Wars:

I think the whole point of throwing Roger at us is to emphasize how Ben had it for many years, and thus make us sympathize a little more with Ben. But it's all about choices, isn't it? Locke had a shit-tastic life and look how good he turned out to be! Ben, well, Ben is Ben; we love him for who he is. ;-)

I think Miles is safe for now because we haven't seen why his supposedly unloving father abandoned him. The mom seems to have it in for her ex husband but he seemed like he really cares for his family. Probably something goes wrong in the next episode or two to convince Chang that his family isn't safe and sends them…

I never knew there was hate for Hurley. Admittedly, I never ranked him in my Top 5 favorite characters list. But I've always appreciated his scenes. He adds something to Lost that I feel separates it from other shows. He has a decent storyline compared to some people - Kate, cough - and he threw a Hot Pocket at Ben in…

As someone pointed out, we only have about 20 episodes left. I can't imagine the show would introduce some new group completely outside the box they've already established. Someone OTHER than Ben, Dharma, the original Others, or Widmore/Ellie off the island seems too forced and too much to handle. So we have to select…

I always assumed Ben was the real comic relief.

Too young?
I'm a girl, first off, and I was secondly that kid who watched Batman Returns at the age of 4 and thought it was absolutely amazing and I wanted to be Catwoman (yes, even at the age of 4 I wanted to wear a skin-tight rubber catsuit). Except for that one part where she attacks the rapist in the alley and…

I'm beginning to think the slightly campy Smoke Monster is intentionally fake looking for the express purpose of being, as Noel pointed out, like Indiana Jones. The special effects for the plane and other numbers have been pretty decent, but there has always been an element of B-quality to it. Admittedly, Smokey's…

Explanation!
You are holding onto the box because deep down you really loved Alan Rickman as the Sheriff of Nottingham in that movie and you know this box of cereal holds some inane connection to the only good actor in that movie!
