October can mean only two things; one, that it's getting cold as fuck outside, and two, that the return of LOST is getting even nearer. Sure, Heroes may already be back, but it's pale in comparison- I spy with my little eye a post for the future perhaps? But back to today, and because i'm so lazy, here's a mashup post of all the recent LOST headlines...

LOST: The Movie

There's been a lot of media ramblings recently about the prospect of a LOST movie, or, a cinema-edition of the one show that should never, ever be given a big screen edition.

Thankfully, for the most part, a lot of it seems to be sensationalist news headlines and not much else. I love LOST, but the prospect of having to go to the cinema to see the 'proper ending' to something that should've been shown on TV is nonsense, and while, it's true that if said film did go ahead and deviate a little it could be interesting, I think it would ultimately be a bad move, for similar reasons as that of the recent half-assed videogame tie-in. Even a few years after the show finished I think it would be an awful move, and there's always the problems of successfuly reshaping the format from serial into two-hour mess for the big screen, much like i'm a little weary over the idea of the upcoming 24 film-prequel thing. No thanks.

LOST: The whiny model/actress

Following the theme of sensationalist headlines, Evangeline Lilly has recently declared that she regrets stripping off for Men's magazines, citing inexperience and being, well -I made this part up- being completely feeble.

Kate is easily one of the worst characters on the show -second to Jack?- and silly statements like this make it just as hard to like Evangeline- no-one likes a whiny actress. Stop regretting, get over yourself, do a better job at acting, and please change your mind at your decision to stop starring in sexy photos. Yes thanks.

LOST: The Season 5 Promo

The first proper promo debuted recently, meaning that yes, LOST is returning sooner rather than later, though ABC seem to act as if next week. The video's basically the classic promo formula, with choice scenes and footage illustrating what's happened so far, and brief hints of what's to come, including (spoilers) more Charlotte & Faraday, Oceanic 6 mainland nonsense, Ben Linus and lots more DHARMA. Oh, and there's that awesome voiceover guy at the end too if you're into that kind of thing. The sooner February arrives, the better. Definitely, awesome, I love you so much thanks.
