The producers acknowledged the significance of the Backgammon reference in the season 1 pilot quite a long time ago. And to fully understand this allegory we must look at its inspiration- So before we get back to LOST and Backgammon lets look at where this allusion came from- Don’t let me lose you we [...]

Okay, folks. Here’s a quick review of the literary allusions from last week, before we move on to tonight’s episode and its bookish Easter eggs.
It has been suggested that the two ladders we saw in “The Substitute” represent the two time lines or parallel realities. Will one of them break or become unstable? Will the [...]

Wow, talk about a good episode. Yeah, so for anyone who saw last nights’ episode, you will realize that there were NO Jackfaces, simply because there was no Jack. But man, that was one heck of an episode. This is gonna be a giant spoiler post so you have been warned.
Well, it has been confirmed [...]

In “The Substitute” we finally get to see The List, a source for all of the speculation about a grand scheme. Presumably, Jacob has acted as the god of Fate for all of the chosen castaways. He spun their threads, measured them out, wove them together and, most likely, decides when each thread of life [...]

Remember that you are dust and to dust you shall return. (Common utterance during the ritual ash-marking of Ash Wednesday; origin: Genesis 3:19)

Slaughter old men, young men and maidens, women and children, but do not touch anyone who has the mark. Ezekiel 9:5
I’ve been thinking about the protective [...]

As the Man in Black builds a following, the number of infected grows. But here’s the question: to catch the Sickness, do you need to be alive or dead?

So far, in the flash sideways scenes, we have seen Claire going into labor with Kate at her side, Ethan Goodspeed monitoring the progress of mother and unborn child, John providing Jack with a more spiritual understanding of the universe, Kate running, tracking (Claire) and escaping “capture,” and Jack rescuing Charlie from near-death. What else [...]

The season premiere’s most intriguing bit of dialogue is the exchange between Ben and MonsterLocke, following Jacob’s murder and the slaughter of Ilana’s team. The absurdity of the setting (inside of the four-toed statue) and the somber tone of the discussion create a mood of fantasy and postmodernist dissonance—Waiting for Godot meets Alice in Wonderland. [...]

That’s right- Our beloved Jin will be reprising the role of Chin Ho Kelly in the upcoming remake.
Perhaps Kim wanted to stay in Hawaii close to his burger joint… The reboot will be brought to us by Alex Kurtzman and Roberto Orci from Fringe Fame and also from CSI NY.
It is too soon to speculate [...]

Thats right, Universal has decided to adapt some pretty strange movies coming up… Universal partnered up with Hasbro, and a few strange movies are in the works because of it. There will reportedly be movies based on “Candyland”, “Monopoly”, “Clue”, “Ouija”, “Battleship”, and Where’s Waldo…
Aside from the latter im not sure how good any of [...]

This is what happens when you make a bunch of people who dont watch Lost try to understand without watching every episode!!

The producers acknowledged the significance of the Backgammon reference in the season 1 pilot…
So ponder this…. In the first few seasons we had several references to Alice and Wonderland….
In “Alice’s Adventures in Wonderland” the story was meant to symbolize a game of cards, different scenes signifying different cards in a deck….
In “Through the looking glass” [...]

Sayid wakes up from his strange encounter in the murky water quite confused….. I thought off the bat that it was Jacob who needed a vessel…. However the fact that Sayid seemed confused argues against that. In this sneak peek of episode 3 some light is shed
… watch the official trailer for ep. 3 which [...]

As Hurley takes charge, at the behest of Jacob, we find ourselves on a trek to the temple. Lost fans have waited a long time for a glimpse of this oft talked about place. And lo and behold, it’s a pyramid. The Egyptian ties are not subtle, Hieroglyphics in the hatch [...]
