retro_eidasObnoxious, annoying bitch stealing time from more worthy/better characters. I presume there must have been something drastic and dastardly that happened to the tailaways that made her such a huge, raging scene-chewing harpy of uncontainable bad-assery... but.... I just don't care. Go away.
Just to let you know![[livejournal.com profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/external/lj-userinfo.gif)
wingedseraph7, I immediately thought of you when Sawyer said, "Rambina".
Charlie also needs to shut the hell up. Forthwith. Seriously, someone sit on him if they have to. By the way Chuck, it was actually Sayid who really saved Aaron from crazy Frenchie... all you did was stand around (while holding the precious baby you wouldn't go back without) and call crazy Frenchie with big frickin' rifle "pathetic". Claire deserves better.
Although "Adebisi", Bernard and Libby can stay. They seem cool (and interesting story there). Also looks like Michael (although I'm wondering how/why he deserves it) may be getting a woman in Libby? Sam Anderson (who plays Bernard) is a great actor, I'm used to seeing him play assholes (Donna's dad in "La Bamba" and the pervert principal in "Forrest Gump"), but this is a nice change for him. Rose's husband seems as cool as she is.
Since I love my Shannon, really adored that moment feeding Vincent at the end. Very sweet. ;) Although we were deprived of the Sayid/Shannon sweetness of elusive 2.04 promo stills (takes another shot of Cuervo here)... although as soon as I saw Claire/Shannon walking towards Sun, I figured that "promo still" either was/is from another ep (I doubt it) or an off-set candid moment mistaken for an on-camera moment. Sun wouldn't have been all smiles as she was in that picture. Poor woman. *sighs* However, I wish there were more (less depressing) scenes between Claire, Shannon and Sun. I was momentarily excited until I realized the scene was going to be another downer like the one the three had in Exodus. Oh well. I'll take what I can get.
And Chernobyl? Well shit. I suppose we can look forward to the Lostaways all getting nasty bouts of diarrhea, vomiting, maybe an open sore or two and a generally slow, agonizing and painful death c/o radiation? ... Or the writers are just fucking with us.
Sayid is hot hitting masonry with pieces of titanium. Sayid is hot all. the. time. More of him please! Although why is he trying to get into the magnetic room of mystery, again? Especially after name-dropping frickin' "Chernobyl"? Sorry, but I guess I just wouldn't ever be that curious.
Jack was much less ... well... Jack in this ep. I liked it. He needs to be that way more often. Liked the exploring around the bowels of the hellhole... even though I was completely confused why they were down there in the first place (again, Chernobyl?!).
I also love Sawyer.... and I love him better with two arms thank you very much. Please writers, don't keep him away from Dr. Jack too long.
I like Hurley, but ... I was a little confunded by the plan of how blowing up the food was supposed to avoid everyone hating him? You'd think that would bring it on, uhm, quicklier (and more raging since folks wouldn't have known about it until after it was gone... as if Charlie would have kept quiet if Hurley blew up all that food).
And if Hurley did spent time in a psych ward.... methinks su querida madre was likely the cause. I couldn't completely tell whether she was joking or being serious about "Jesus" on the phone.
ETA. Does Hurley speak Korean or understand it at all? Or was he spending a lot of time with Jin and/or Sun? I've had dreams of speaking "Russian"... or what lamely passes as Russian in my dream-addled mind. It's usually / mostly just gibberish. I suppose the subconscious can retain all sorts of weird stuff... but from what I could tell, that was some mighty good Korean he was speaking in his dream. Interesting. Particularly how Jin was 'speaking English'. Either that's a clue for something... or my paranoia has me digging. Again.
ETA2. They need to get a decorator in tailaway hatch hole. Wow. Drive in the bleakness much? It was, quite literally, like a rabbit warren. ::runs to dig up copy of "Watership Down" and re-read for clues::
ETA3. And holy shit! Aaron is like a year old already! That kid is HUGE!

Sayid did look hot in those scenes. Extremely hot.
That's one way I wouldn't want him to die, ever, no matter what: radiation poisoning. Not if that is what the "sickness" is.

Red herring, appealing to all the geek theories about nuclear fallout shelters or whatever.
Hurley's lie to Charlie about what the Hatch is.... a bunker, "like the ones from World War II, but newer".
Chernobyl and Hurley's lie do feel like potential red herrings (or shout-outs to the nuclear conspiracy theories). Too much, too soon. Or that's what I'm hoping anyway. Radiation poisoning is just *not* a pretty way to die.

Among the less horrible aspects of the efects on the body, I couldn't stand watching Sayid's pretty hair falling out in clumps...

Date: 2005-10-13 05:52 pm (UTC)Not that you'd need to imagine anymore of an elaborate (horrible) picture or anything... but read When The Wind Blows by Raymond Briggs sometime if you can find a copy. Excellent graphic novel, but ...oh. my. god. It's one of those kick-you-in-the-gut heart-wrenching stories. Level 7 by Mordecai Roshwald also gets into the slow death by radiation thing, although in a very different form than Briggs' aforementioned (which is about the hapless victim). Level 7 is about the possessors / releasers of the nukes (aka, "push buttons"). Nuclear warfare mixed with the paranoid shelter mindset of the 50s mixed with Huxley's Brave New World.
