LOST and Bothered.

Valentine's Day Edition!

Hey, that love holiday is this week, so let's talk about Sun & Jin, shall we?

We know they're HOT (I mean, look at them... you can also look at previous comments on this blog mentioning Sun in a bikini). But what makes the couple so irresistible?

Romance? Drama? Separation? Death? Life?

Sun & Jin are sooooo dramatic (or should we call it passionate?). In the course of 4-5 seasons they have:

• found love in different social classes
• he's worked as an assassin for her father
• she cheated on him
• she lost her wedding ring
• she learned English and didn't tell him
• they stopped talking, went away on rafts, reunited
• thought he died but doesn't know he's alive
• had his baby without him, yet in her delirious state called out his name and refused to have the baby alone
• cried at his grave
• lied about his death
• ran to her as the boat was being blown up, but didn't reach her in time...

Now she's turning into quite a femme fatale (hot) and he's all dirty and sweaty on the beach (hot).

LOST and Bothered.

It's a New Year. At the start of anything new, you should always be thankful for the good things in life. Like all the characters on LOST who are HOT. I think '09 is really going to be Ben's year, so who better to appreciate?

Ben is a man of power. Who doesn't love that (unless he's trying to kill or manipulate you?)? I'm going out on a limb here to say that Ben definitely has some hotness to him, but it might just be best to admire it from a distance.

Fun Ben facts:

• he kills both his parents (technically he kills his mom by being born) on his birthday
• he has multiple names/passports including Henry Gale and Dean Moriarty
• he was born in Portland!
• young Ben looks like Vince
• the actor who plays Ben, Michael Emerson, gets his haircut at the same place as J.Cremer in Manhattan

I think what makes Ben so great is that he's such an interesting character. He's constantly playing mind games, beating people up, befriending them, saying things you think have hidden meaning, the list goes on. He's a self-made man! He's super smart! He totally makes the show most of the time. And he creeps me out! Nothing hotter than that.

I was gonna post a "Lost & Bothered" post, however, I was having a difficult time choosing. Hurley? I mean, everyone does love him. Kate? That seems kind of obvious. Sun? For another female? Some random secondary character like Liam? Just because?

So, I headed on over to Lostpedia for some light reading, only to find that it has changed! Apparently, Lostpeida has joined Wikia, whatever that means. I didn't bother reading the message. The format is different, but it looks as though all the same content is there.

Sorry for the boringness, but it's a slow news week, even in LOST terms. I needed to see something other then John Locke in a santa cap.

Sorry for not posting yesterday. This annoying thing called WORK got in the way. Anyway, the countdown to the new season of LOST has pretty much begun (but didn't it start at the finale of Season 4?) ... getting us more bothered then usual. Who is it this week that's driving us cra-azy?

Jack Shepard, please be my hero.

Okay, so Jack can't be ignored. The show revolves around this guy and that's probably because he's hot. Jack is hot for a lot of reasons, but most of them involve his chest. C'mon, how many of you were like "oh, Jack's chest is hairy in this episode but not in that one! That MEANS something" just because you wanted to stare at different photos of shirtless Jack? Yeah, that's what I thought. Looking for appendix scars, hmph. Anyway, we also all want to be saved and Jack's our guy. People Jack has saved:

• Sarah, his wife. He "fixed her" and then she could dance at her wedding
• Rose, right after the plane crashed
• Ben
• the girl in the car crash when Jack was on the bridge. However, he was also the reason she needed to be saved

People/things Jack has not saved:

• His marriage. Whoops.
• the pilot in the cockpit
• the Marshal
• Joanna, because he saved Boone instead
• Colleen, one of the others
• Boone (thank God, right? Him and Shannon always bothered me)

There are a bunch of people who you can say survived because of Jack. The Oceanic 6, Sawyer, etc etc. Do you think they got off the Island because of Jack? Yeah, yeah, Jack's the leader, but does he deserve the credit?

Jack has lots of fun relationships too. His wife. That Thailand girl. Juliette (blech!). And last, but certainly not least, Kate. Jack and Kate are big on being HOT together.

Look! You can even get a Jack action figure!!

"He walks amongst us, but he is not one of us"

LOST And Bothered

When taking the "What LOST character are you?" quiz on facebook, it said I was Claire Littleton. Sounds good to me! Claire is totes hot.

Okay, besides the fact that Claire has a romance with Charlie, she's pretty good at driving some big story lines... I mean, she did have the whole preganancy-have a baby on the island - thing. Not to mention she's Jack sister. Or the fact that she's possibly dead! (I really think she's dead... well, in Island time she is).

Also, Claire goes to see the psychic. I really like that she listens to the psychic because it's creepy. Psychics are creepy. I saw one yesterday. No joke! Btw, did you know that Claire is never seen in the 7th episode of any season?

But take a good look at that photo, because Claire ain't gonna be seen again until Season 6.

Lost and Bothered

Holla! Who has us all wound up this week? Who are you wishing to be stranded on an island with?

Sayid can torture me any day.

Holla!
To make the unnecessary argument in Sayid's favor, I'll quote directly from Lostpedia.

• "A courageous man and a competent leader" - duh, Sayid is a badass
• "Sayid spent much of his adult life searching for his childhood-love, Nadia" - you know how I feel about guys who work for true love
• "Working as an accomplished chef in Paris" - who doesn't want a guy who can cook?
• "After fixing the transceiver" - Sayid fixes all sorts of shit. He's in a word, handy (and dandy).
• "He said that he was willing to die for everyone else to be rescued, but he wouldn't die for nothing."
• "but Sayid tripped Jason and snapped his neck with his legs" - this is by far one of the best Sayid moments
• "If Jack is a man of science, and Locke is a man of faith, Sayid is a combination of the two" - best of both worlds, baby

In short: Sayid is a hot badass, who will risk everything for the one he loves. Holla!

LOST and Bothered...

One of the best ways to start your week is by talking about LOST. One of the better ways to start your week is to talk about who is HOT on LOST. This is my attempt to pick a character a week and discuss their ... er... finer points. Let's cut the crap and get straight to it.

DESMOND is my constant.

Desmond is the obvious first choice because he is my favorite. Here are my top 5 things I love about Desmond:
1. HELLO, Time Travel! Desmond travels through time...
2. Um... he can predict the future.
3. Brotha
4. ok, have you SEEN Desmond?
5. His love for Penny. Desmond chooses Penny as his constant. This is freakin' romantic and you know it. And who didn't feel a little twinge in their heart as he yelled out "Penny! Penny!" or when they talked on the phone and you knew he was going to live and they were going to be together and they were in LOVE.

I think girls like Desmond (okay, I think I like Desmond) because he's romantic. I mean, he's trying to win the woman that he loves and all that. Oh and the time travel bit. I mean, capabilities to time travel are one of my must-haves in a man. Can't time travel? Deal-breaker!
