Lost: Through the Looking Glass

As Locke would say, "I was wrong".

Going to take some time to form theories of what is to come (which more than likely will be wrong). Two things I'll mention now.

1) Is Jack's dad alive? Jenny thinks no, and I'm not so sure. I'm feeling an alternative timeline going on.

2) Tom (or Mr. Friendly) and the other guy have a conversation before they reveal Jin, Bernard, and Sayid are alive. It sounded like they were taking orders but not from Ben.

Have to wait 8 more months to unfold this story. Grr. . .

That Guy

I'm posting this to let you all know that my husband has officially become "That Guy." (See picture) He's even reading some Tiger Beat magazine for Lost fans?!? Maybe he needs to get out more. sigh. -Jenny

Lost: Threshold of the Looking Glass

If Monday and Tuesday were people I would assassinate them so I could watch the last episode of the season "Through the Looking Glass".

For those that have not watched Lost or have not caught up yet, it's probably time to tune out (assuming your still reading this post)

I wanted to make some predictions before the episode airs and see if I may be close to being right.

Here I go.

1) Locke will rise.

No way, really? The real question is who will find him? My guess is Ben's daughter. Since she gave him the gun and Ben returned with it I think she will redeem herself. Plus, she sent off her boyfriend to warn the 815ers, what else does she have to do?

2) The return of Michael and Walt

I don't believe Ben would let them go outright. He is way too controlling. Which makes me think that Walt and Michael are prisoners on the Looking Glass station. Ben said it was flooded (according to Juliet) so my guess is Michael and Walt were recaptured and held there. This would give relevance to Charlie again.

3) Sayid will die.

I know they've been saying Charlie's going to die, but really, you think the season finale will play out what they've been teasing for 8 episodes? Doesn't seem like Lost to me. Charlie will live, make no mistake. Perhaps the 815ers will think he's dead, but the person I think will die is Sayid.

This whole season has lead up to a war with the others. Sayid, being in the republican guard, has purpose and position in a situation. I think his story will end, dying for the 815ers. He's the only character on the show whose story is pretty close to being redeemed. It's far fetched, but I'm going to stick with it.

4) We will meet Alvar Hanso.

My guess is that the fourth season will focus on the Hanso Foundation, the launching of the Dharma Initiative, and what they were experimenting on.

Come Wednesday, we'll see.

Hungry like a wolf

I saw this first of Seth's blog and I laughed myself stupid. I take no credit for this find but enjoy.

A picture is worth a thousand words.

So, who wants to take us to the Christmas Formal?

Pirates 3 running time

Seth sent me an email that said "Pirates of the Carribean: at world's end" will be 30 minutes longer than "Dead Man's Chest".

Well, it may be longer in time, but nothing will feel longer than Dead Man's Chest. So, in honor of this most glorious news, here is my review of P2. Enjoy.

*This email may contain adult language, reader's
discretion advised*

Please bare with me as what I'm about to write is just
my opinion. I still love everyone even if they don't
share the same overall sentiment.

That being said . . .

Pirates of the Caribbean: Dead Man's Chest was by far
the stupidest movie I've seen this year. REALLY
Stupid. Where do I even begin? Well for starters it
was like 10 hours too long in desperate need of an
editor (I think at one point Kevin Costner leaned over
to me and said it was too long). It had a ridiculous
amount of anticlimactic fight scenes, back to back to
back to back, so choreographed that the dancers from
Chicago could have done it. Also, the story was
weaker than a watered down diet caffeine free Pepsi.
And those are the good things about it. . .

There is no reason that movie needed to be split in
two. Everything, I mean everything they set up in the
beginning could have been resolved. I know it seems
crazy, but instead of having, oh I don't know, 100
minutes of your film tied up in fighting, maybe you
could move forward in . . .what's the word. . .oh yeah
STORY. But oh no. No NO NO! Instead, they injected
fighting. And the fighting made the film drag. In
fact, the film dragged so much that at one point Jenny
said to me, "You know the movie's bad when I don't
care if anyone lives or dies."

To be fair, there were a few funny moments in the
beginning that gave the film some real promise. That
didn't last long however.

So, what do I really think? I think you should
totally go see it. It made me furiously angry, but,
who knows, you may think it's great.

After all, what people like in their movie experience
is totally subjective
. . .unless, of course, the movie's shit.

On a positive note

Someone who shall remain nameless (rhymes with SchmEllie) has brought to my attention most of my posts can tend to read negative. I have no idea where she would get that but it did encourage me to post something positive.

Here is a video that Jenny cut and put music to. Check it out.
