Author of the chessboard poem in the Spanish LOST promo

November 30th, 2009 by Ms Terri · 16 Comments · Chess promo (Cuatro), Destiny, Opening Scene of Season 5 Finale, Season 6

The Spanish station Cuatro, which ran the hauntingly beautiful chess-themed LOST Season 6 promo, announced a contest earlier today based on that promo.
Here’s my translation of what Cuatro posted on its site, done with my semi-remembered high school/college Spanish, with a lot of help from Google Translate. It may not be 100% accurate, but I [...]

EW Interview: Damon and Carlton talk about destiny and time loops

May 13th, 2009 by Ms Terri · No Comments · Damon and Carlton, Destiny, Jack (Matthew Fox), Season 6, Time travel

This is a good interview.
My favorite part of the first segment is when Carlton says, Phew! They are done with the time-travel season — and that was the defining characteristic of Season 5 — and Season 6 will be about something different.
Interesting …

In the second part of the video, Damon and Carlton talk about [...]

May 6th, 2009 by Ms Terri · 1 Comment · 5x15 Follow the Leader, Alpert (Nestor Carbonell), Ben (Michael Emerson), Daddy issues, Destiny, Dr. Chang (Francois Chau), Ellie in 1977 (Alice Evans), Hurley (Jorge Garcia), Jack (Matthew Fox), Jack versus Locke, Jacob (Mark Pellegrino), Jin (Daniel Dae Kim), Juliet (Elizabeth Mitchell), Kate (Evangeline Lilly), Locke (Terry O'Quinn), Miles (Ken Leung), Recaps and reviews, Sawyer (Josh Holloway), Sayid (Naveen Andrews), Suliet (Sawyer and Juliet), Time travel, Widmore in 1977 (David S. Lee)

Although the episode title refers to a “leader” in the singular, there are actually two leaders in this episode who set out on parallel treks in different times — Jack in 1977 and Locke in 2007. Each is convinced that he is finally acting out his destiny. And each has Richard Alpert tagging [...]

Recap of 5×14 The Variable

April 29th, 2009 by Ms Terri · 4 Comments · 5x14 The Variable, Desmond (Henry Ian Cusick), Destiny, Dr. Chang (Francois Chau), Ellie in 1977 (Alice Evans), Eloise Hawking (Fionnula Flanagan), Faraday (Jeremy Davies), Juliet (Elizabeth Mitchell), Kate (Evangeline Lilly), Miles (Ken Leung), Penny (Sonya Walger), Penny and Desmond, Recaps and reviews, Sawyer (Josh Holloway), Suliet (Sawyer and Juliet), Time travel, Widmore (Alan Dale)

An amazing episode.
After we’ve heard Jack wail so many times, “We have to go back! We have to go back!” it turns out that no, they didn’t have to go back after all.
Faraday’s theory about how you can’t change the past is turned on its head.
We see Mommy issues that are just [...]

The Variable, LOST’s 100th episode, is going to focus on Daniel Faraday, showing his flashbacks for the first time.
In the April 23, 2009 official audio podcast, Damon and Carlton confirm (as I had guessed in an earlier post) that the title “The Variable” is a reference to “The Constant” from last season, and [...]

My Grand Theory of Everything

March 7th, 2009 by Ms Terri · 13 Comments · Destiny, Season 5, Theories, Time travel

This is my grand theory of everything — from time travel to destiny — in LOST.
I’m starting with the premise that the writers want to avoid major time-travel paradoxes, that they don’t want to deal with problems such as a character being his own grandfather, or killing his mother before he was born, etc. [...]
