"I Hope You're Happy Now, Jacob"--The LOST Season 5 Thread

tbh i would be ok if ben made some kind of semi-revelatory monlogue every episode. i love that dude.

he seems so bored with all this 'going back bla bla bla' right now. like every line he delivers is going through the motions. the boredness in his delivery has been a+

i like the idea that were never going to figure out the island because ben cant be bothered to actually explain it to everyone

sometimes it disturbs me how much ben is my favourite

i hope that locke's journey back is soundtracked by big's "going back to cali"

^^^^^^^^

"It was when he said, 'Got any milk?' after that reveal. We both knew he was a keeper. There's something so incredibly unsettling about his eyes," Lindeloff says. "We used to be really specific in our scripts but now we just write for Ben to look at so-and-so with 'those eyes.' "

i dunno if he can top the Hurley flying burrito incident

ben rules, best character hands down

Ben last season >>>> Ben this season though. There's a certain ambiguity taken out of Ben's character now we more-or-less know that he needs to get everyone back for a good reason.

i'm sure he'll find some new reason to be a dick to them once they all get back

i dunno im enjoying the payoff and seeing him get annoyed that they still dont trust him

loved Jack's "oh, of course" look when Ben fed him that "John didn't come to see me, I went to see him" line.

i wish Jack had done his full-on 'OK what the fuck is your deal' act at that point. head bobbling all over the place.

Later, at dinner:

Jack "I thought you said you didn't want fries with that?"
Ben "That's right, I wanted THAT with my fries"

So hang on, The Life And Death Of Jeremy Bentham is the next episode, right? I'm guessing no on-island action at all next week.

next episode is '316'

i wish Jack had done his full-on 'OK what the fuck is your deal' act at that point. head bobbling all over the place.

he's still reeling from the meds. just wait til he gets back on the island, it's gonna be full on head bobbling Jackface all day.

i'm hoping 316 refers to the year 316 but i doubt it.

Widmore's fake plane i thought, but guess not judging by trailer

ah ok. i hadn't seen the trailer for next week.

is there going to be a connection btw the statue and the ppl speaking latin?

I'm kind of wondering what the point of Jack will be once he gets back to the island. They must have something lined up for him... maybe a face-off with Christian at some point.

''I've always believed part of what was destroying him was his lack of physical proximity to the Island,'' says Fox. ''He is fated to do something on the Island, and he has fought that with every fiber of his body, and in doing that, the Island is destroying him from afar. When he finds himself back in this place, he's wide-eyed and alert. He knows he's in the path of his own destiny.''

maybe theyll kill him and kate and put them in a cave

i hope he grows his beard again

do u think hell bring his in utero cd to the island

important question

maybe a face-off with Christian at some point

definitely. and he has to see Claire again somehow. i was always hoping for a moment where they'd both see Christian together and say "Dad" then look at each other all freaked out. ah well.

desert island discs TS: in utero vs doolittle

vs. geronimo jackson

vs. mama cass

My first thought re episode title "316" was:

wish we were getting john 8:32 amirite?

I can just see Jack at drug rehab..."And I suppose 'the island' made you take those meds and kill that old lady too Mr Shepherd".

SAY HERRO TO MY SON

"Camera pans out, and we see that island is in a snowglobe on Carles Widmore's desk

FADE OUT

This is the best I could manage. Please make better.

I just realized why off-island Jack annoys me less than on-island Jack-- he's not constantly denying his interest in everything interesting about the island. I suppose when he comes back he can't be all "We need to get off the island" anymore.

Just saw Walt in a new Tyson "Anytizers" commercial.

Have you ever seen Walt anywhere he wasn't supposed to be?

re: St. Elsewhere snow globe stuff

Didn't the writers reference this when they had Desmond say, "We're stuck in a bloody snow globe!" is SSN 2?

they did. they meant it as a joke.

that's what i was saying

skipping ahead to ask wtf this means

the old dude was you think was pretty frissons-inducing

nm, was covered elsewhere, haw

this ep was a bit too bonkers for my taste, and they fluffed the desmond-arriving-at-exact-same-moment moment.

i hope there is a good reason for eloise being so, uh, weird and being based in a church.

and 'the wheel that controls the universe' is going to need some really amazing explanation.

and i don't want the lovely charlotte to die :(

+ MORE MILES PLZ

yeah wasn't too wild about french guy's arm coming off and jin time travelling to see the arm still lying there but now it's old and then getting to the beach to see rousseau shoot her boyf fuck dat

nice to see and hear the smoke monster again though

the time jumps have been convenient, but jon's were waaay too convenient. may as well have had a rousseau flashback ep, and maybe they would have had one last series but for the strike.
