Lost review: For season 5 ep 1 and ep 2
I have come to accept the realization that I am officially a Lostaholic
Can't get enough LOST, can't say enough about LOST,
can't stop thinking about LOST.

REVIEW: Ep.5-01 & Ep.5-02:
THEME>> I believe the theme was about TRUTH vs LIE.
ie Jack and Hurley struggling with the whole Oceanic 6 lie
ie: Jack lying to Ben about flushing his pills himself
ie: Ben becoming more likable and seemingly being TRUHTFUL or at least sincere as he is desperate to get all the 0ceanic 6 back to the island
ie: Hurley saying its all happening because they lied
COMMENT>> the reintroduction of old characters ANA LUCIA, Dr Marvin Candle (Dr Chang), Frogurt, and Ethan was nice to see, While the mood and character of the losties seems to be shifting as they get more desperate and confused.
COMMENT>> the mystery cinematic device of hiding the characters faces was a little overdone. Showing their faces would be no less interesting also.
ie: hiding Dr. Changs face, Daniels Face, Ms Hawking's face
NOTE>> Dr. Chang notes that the energy behind the wall can be harnessed to manipulate time as we know its already been harnessed via the original installation of the donkey wheel.
THEORY>> the ancient island inhabitants installed the wheel and there is a 'back door' to the chamber or they covered it up knowing safe to use as a last resort if necessary.
THEORY>> the island is floating like a magnetic iceberg ( with the magnetic energy in the island) over another magnet (the earth's core). The islands 'radius' as Daniel Faraday mentions must extend outward from the shore of the island to the edge/width of the 'iceberg' if you will. The ripples the island made the first time we saw it move ALSO suggests it floating -- like plucking an ice cube out of a bowl. If the island went down to the earth's
COMMENT>> Sun to Ben -- "[our common interest] to KILL benjamin Linus"
It seems a little unrealistic that Sun is so keen on KILLING BEN, other than maybe a cultural thing of avenging loved one's 'murder', it doesn't seem like Sun.
COMMENT>> IT KIILS ME THAT the sound production people can't resist inserting a ''shoosh-metal-on-metal' knife sound when Locke quietly removes his knife from its leather holster while hiding behind the plane before he's discovered by Richard.
COMMENT>> I still believe that the compass Richards Alpert gives to John Locke is his 'constant' in order to remember and trust John Locke in his own past. It seems he's always had some sort of compass - at least since when John Locke was a boy
KUDOS>> Josh Holloway 's performance especially when he showed his desparation by the back door of the hatch -and- when asked by Juliet why he jumped from the helicopter.
COMMENT>> Its funny how Charlotte and the other nose-bleeders never feel their own blood on their upper lip themselves.
JOKE>>FLAMING ARROWs seem unrealistic as they burn too bright and ling after they hit the ground. There must be some heavy duty chemicals on those suckers!
BAD JOKE>> SAWYERS toe with the piece of wood lodged in it looks worse than John Locke's bullet wound! I hope Richard Alpert puts some disinfectant on it too before his pedicure!
THEORY>> The army was there to protect dharma from the current island 'natives/inhabitants' while dharma built the stations, the compound and until the security wall was up and running.
THEORY>> I think we are being tricked into believing Ms Hawking to be Daniel Faraday's mother. The Ms instead of Mrs in front of her name is indication.
THEORY>> LOCKE IS NOT DEAD! He has simply been drugged with Artz's spider venom. The same venom poison that got Nikki and Paulo mistaken and left(or shall we say buried) for dead. This would relieve Darlton from having to explain Locke's death as permanent or the island miraculously 'reviving' him upon his return.
COMMENT>> Ben's Group of others in the real world-- seems to have an elaborate hierarchy for the others in their travel back and forth. There is an apparent chain of command where Jacob does not appear to be on the top. I'd like to have this further explained
IDEAS
COMMENT>>> Talk shoe needs to provide a way to capture text in the chat room as you see in in Talk Shoe Pro and be able to save it to a file -- lots a great stuff is missed in the chat room
COMMENT>> Talk shoe Pro client should include a spell checker.
FAVORITE LINES
Rose to Frogurt -- "HELP or BE QUIET" and ['you need a timeout']
Hurley to Sayid -- "It you ate more comfort food , maybe you wouldn't go around killing people"
