Thu, 19 October 2006 First, thanks for all the nice comments: If you want Andrew and John to also post theories and thoughts, bother them at andrew at staff dot mugglenet dot com or john at the-leaky-cauldron dot org. Meanwhile! I have two words about last night's episode: Nekkid Desmond! Nekkid Desmond Nekkid Desmond Nekkid Desmond Nekkid Desmond! Tie-dye hippy-happy now-clairvoyant boy, nekkidly looking out into a clear day and seeing forever. That's right, guys, nekkid!Desmond is also I Can See Clearly Now the Hatch is Gone!Desmond, otherwise known as newly Powerful See-the-future!Desmond. And I like it. As long as he keeps the tie-dye. Some more thoughts: 1. Do they all have powers now? Nekkid!Clairvoyant!Desmond, TalkToTheIsland!Locke, and will it be, Kung-Fu-Fighting-With-My-Jesus-Stick!Eko? Or, perhaps Eko will have some other cool power, like being able to attract small objects to him and his barrel chest. Maybe he can start with Charlie's brain, and beat some sense into it. Seriously, Charlie, what the heck? You've been on the island two months, get over the whole Don't Tell Me What To Do wah-wah, and on to the, I'm Above Immature Displays of Insecurity Beause I'm Man Enough to Know that Survival Is Better Than Stupidity, ok? I'm done with it. Anyway, theory: the electromagnetic whosiewhatsit that caused the hatch to implode sucked them all into some alternate-universe kind of wave, like an electromagnetic wave, and now they are a bit more "one" with the Island than they were. That's why they weren't harmed; they were incorporeal at the time. If Charlie's vicinity means he was, too, then this explains his total, "Durrrrh, Claire, nothing happened in the hatch. I was high at the time," attitude. 2. Locke's flashback - I really, really, thought perhaps we'd see how Locke lost use of his legs. I do think this is post-Helen, though; didn't he say he robbed a bank? That would be post-Helen, I think. I LOVED how the whole Earth Mother lady got all Bonnie and Clyde later on. And all the pot! LOL! WHY do all the commune hippies grow weed on these things? It's so cliche; it reminds me of the VERONICA MARS episode when there was this big to do made about that "tent" and it turns out they're growing this "awesome" product and it was...POINTSETTIA PLANTS. At least they knew to throw a cliche in the dustbin where it belongs and replace it with a cash crop that would make even the non-gentiles chortle. 3. Polar bear: Could he tie in to the eskimos and hatchgloo form the end of season two? Or is it more Dharma experimentation? 4. Boone's apparently got some stylin' going on in the afterlife. Bad hair, but dude looks good. 5. The Jesus stick in its very identity makes me laugh. It needs do nothing but appear, and I laugh. 6. The two new people: Best slip-ins ever. "Hi, we'll just act like we've been here all along, because the good doctor isn't here to hotten up this place. Everyone just act normal, k? Thanks." 7. Locke: Hi everyone! I'm the new Jack! Please treat me accordingly! Thanks! 8. Desmond: I will skip rocks into the oblivion to see if I can tell where they land before they get there. A ha! Knew it'd only do three jumps! -Melissa Category: Episode Recaps -- posted at: 2:52 PM Comments[17] |
6) yeah "Hi Ive been here for 40 someodd days youve just never seen me cuz I always sit behind the tree, but now i must leave my tree and run towards Locke"
The Nikki/Paulo slip in made me really frustrated. They were like "Hey here we are now! We'll scream so you know that we've always been here, but you just haven't seen us!" I mean really, at least introduce them properly like "Hey, I'm Paulo, and I'm the guy that's always been hammering something in the backgorund." ;P
sorry the mets lost :(
