I just want to get this off my chest before I forget it.<BR/><BR/>1. I was watching the DVD with the subtitles on, and the subtitles have the bird saying "Hurley". They COULD have done it so that a hearing impaired viewer would understand why Sawyer asked, "Did that bird just say your name?" (not an accurate quote). But it's obvious that the creators wanted us to think the bird said Hurley. And considering this is "Lost", I think there may be more to that. I mean, what was the point of having the bird in the first place if not to add more questions, y'know?<BR/><BR/>2. Here's my theory on Libby and the boat: I think that Libby married Hurley while he thought he was David. When Hurley was "cured", David "died". Hurley won the lottery, so he would have the money for a boat. This would also explain why Libby was into "a guy like him" while on the island. I mean, it CAN'T be a coincidence that Hurley's alter ego was named David--same as Libby's husband.<BR/><BR/>: )stormkohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01387648189761881635noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-13498413.post-1156232091828667142006-08-22T02:34:00.000-05:002006-08-22T02:34:00.000-05:00i have the impression that the guys in antartica a...i have the impression that the guys in antartica are suposed to be brazilian, but are actually two north americans tring to speak portuguese, because my first reaction to they speaking was that was dubbed, i am brazilian and found more easy to read the subtitles than hear they speaking!cadrinahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14452969169197067276noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-13498413.post-1156231507233581602006-08-22T02:25:00.000-05:002006-08-22T02:25:00.000-05:00This comment has been removed by a blog administrator.cadrinahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14452969169197067276noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-13498413.post-1156231488260432192006-08-22T02:24:00.001-05:002006-08-22T02:24:00.001-05:00This comment has been removed by a blog administrator.cadrinahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14452969169197067276noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-13498413.post-1156231472135106092006-08-22T02:24:00.000-05:002006-08-22T02:24:00.000-05:00This comment has been removed by a blog administrator.cadrinahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14452969169197067276noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-13498413.post-1154591872609735272006-08-03T02:57:00.000-05:002006-08-03T02:57:00.000-05:00On the subject of who initiated the lockdown that ...On the subject of who initiated the lockdown that allowed Locke to see the map.

Have you ever watched that Kevin Bacon movie? 6 Degrees of Seperation? I vaguely remember the idea of being intertwined in other's life without knowledge of it...sound like the losties? I think it is a statement on life in general. I mean...when my husband and I met we found out we lived three years prior almost next door to eachother without ever knowing it. Never met, maybe we could have flashbacks and see the other at the grocery store!!<BR/><BR/>Think about it this way...you are at Walmart and your cart bumps into a guy that you never saw before. You may exchange words or even a OOPS! Sorry 'bout that! what ever....then find out three months later it was BRIAN! The guy who is writing this column. Woudl you find out even?

But it had a happy ending, which I liked.<BR/><BR/>24 Finale - Again, good but not great. I think I just know what to expect from 24 and some of the shock value has been lost on me.

I think they are throwing the hard core fans some bones (like the Bad Twin manuscript on the island). I am thinking that most of the connections in the flashbacks won't mean anything. They can't make it too complicated because then they will lose viewers. I think there is a master plan/idea and a lot of the other stuff is just fluff and filler that we are reading too much into. I am doing my brain a favour and stop thinking about the show all summer. Then I'll rent season 1 and 2 and watch them both before the start of 3 to refresh myself.<BR/><BR/>Brian, when are the updated coming? I half-assed watched the finale of Alias (never really watched the show ever). It seemed to be a week ending. Did anything become revealed in the end like we hope Lost secrets become revealed at the series finale of Lost?<BR/>I thought 24 was good, but predictable. I knew right away he would plant a bug on the Pres and hope for the best. And Jack Bauer must be losing some of his skills. Come on, why would your daughter call you at a random phone line in a shady warehouse type building. Come on Bauer, I even saw that one coming. I really want whatever PDA Jack has.
