Nope, that's not the monster of Loch Ness popping up!
That's our hero. I "enlightened" him because a lot of these screencaps are way too dark to post them here.






I couldn't do many more because these are all pretty large screencaps
But at least you can see that was no monster. Either that or Nessy had loads and loads of plastic surgery.

Bring Mummy some Ice Cream. It's soooo hot here..

Okay, it's final, it's done, Lost lost me.
Yesterday I watched episodes 2 and 3 and while I could follow epi 2 I could not comprehend anything from epi 3.
It is the time-travel-thing I just can't grasp. There is no logic behind it anymore. And we are logically thinking people.
At least I am. The time-travel is just too abstract and bizarre for me. I could understand it if they would have used the remote viewing way of time-traveling. But this fast for-wind and re-wind thing I just can't follow. The idea is brilliant but the way they show it is just to flashy, messy and sloppy. If they wanted to use the quantum mechanic theory, they at least have to show it to their public in a way everybody understands what that means and what it is doing with our heroes. They could have done that pretty easily by showing something like "Two years earlier", or "30 years later"  or at least  use a symbol like a clock that turns back or forwards in one of the corners of the screen. Then we would know what was going on and try to understand. Now they just lose fans who gave up, because they, like me, could not understand what we were seeing.
I felt very disappointed and angry too. Because they are not taking the wonderful opportunity to develop the character of Sayid (and a few other losties who I feel lost out on this too). They could have done so many wonderful things with Sayid, but instead they use him as a villain, like a Iraqi is not worth more than just be a hit man, a stone cold murderer, which we all know he is not! He had so much potential in the first 2 seasons, but somehow the makers lost their own view about so much more then just our hero.
I have this strong urge not to watch the rest of this season unless Sayid is in it.
Tell me your opinions please.

 

A few days ago, when I was chatting with my light-daughter, I had the fear of my life!
I had the TV on, ( but I forgot (out of shock) what I was watching), and I saw a preview from Lost.
I saw a tearful Kate and the next  second they showed this picture ^^^^ (is pointing to the picture above)
It looked like Kate was picking up the blanket which covered a dead body and the dead body was, ...dare I say it... Sayid !!  I swear you, my heart stopped and I was gasping for air. To my good fortune my ligt-daughter was there to set my mind at peace, as I was telling her what I just saw. It took a while before she answered and my heart was racing because I thought she was not able to answer because of the shock of losing our dearly beloved Sayid. But then the answer came and it looked like she didn't care about it at all. Or she had mis read my message. So I asked her again. She said it could not be a preview for the next season because they were not shooting any at the time. She, of course, was absolutely right. I am such a......you decide that for yourself.
Anyway, today I was going through my Naveen/Sayid pictures files and found this. This is the picture I saw on the preview. This is also from the same scene which I am going to watch this night. Sayid being darted and knocked out  I am not sure how I am gonna react on seeing this... so you better stand by me tonight! I might need you! 

Heat-wave in Europe, hot hot hot!


Posing for the press during the premierre of The Brave One.

I think I know now why virtually no one in my country watches Lost.
Because I, as a hard-core Lost fan, finally got lost as well.
It's too complicated.
It's way too fast too.
It's really demanding as well.
On top of that, we're Dutch and not many people speak or understand English.
We got sub-titles already, but that takes away the constantly needed focus on what is happening on screen.
When you finally managed to read what is said, and you belief you  understand it, you're half way in an other complicated scene. And then it starts anew. You got to read what Jack is telling Sayid and when you look up to see Sayid's reaction on whatever Jack said, you're already watching Lock climbing the tree in which the plane that killed Boone hangs.
Then I go thinking, wait a minute, why is Lock climbing that tree himself now and why didn't he do that before. Was he too lazy or was he hurt,? Why did he send poor Boone up there, knowing the tragic end of Shannons brotha.
And before you're done thinking that, off goes the time switch again...
It's difficult enough to comprehend Lost in English, but when you're from Holland (Belgium too) it is much too demanding.
Much to much. Dutch tv thought they served us well by sending out a 40 minute review of the past four seasons, by reminding us who is who on the crap-hole island  (I think it was Shannon who said that), that's appreciated, but they didn't give us time to put everything back in perspective, by airing episode 1 immediately after the review..
So, where I thought, Oh, that must be where everybody was talking about, I didn't get enough time to get an impression from the scene there for or there after.
It looks like for us, Dutchies) the on;y way to not get lost on Lost is to tape or dvd the entire episode and watch it back yourself, with the remote control at hand, so you can go back in time when you need to see a piece a few times over again. In that way, time is on your hand, whilst it was against you on the island...
