pay no attention to the man behind the curtain
Watching Lost is really weird at the moment.
It's sort of like I'm watching it for the first time, but also that I know exactly what happens. Also I remember WAY more of season two than I thought I did. Some of the stuff I remember, I thought happened in season one, which obviously it didn't! I didn't think I remembered much about s2, so this is kind of weird.
I still think The Other 48 Days is really interesting episode, because it gives an alternate view on the crash. And I love that opening shot, from the beach, before you see the tail end of the plane coming down.
I find it weird that nobody goes, "Oh, Henry Gale! Like the character in The Wizard of Oz!" I mean, I can forgive Sayid not getting it, because I doubt he'd have read it growing up (though who knows, right?) But Jack and Locke should know better, surely. It's hilarious as well that Henry's backstory that he tells Sayid is essentially how the man who became the wizard came to be in Oz anyway (which I wouldn't know if not for Namesake, so thank you Namesake!) (and, of course, one of the later eps is called The Man Behind the Curtain which may well be the one where there's A Reveal, if memory serves).
I had forgotten about the episode with Hurley's weird dream, though I remember that ep airing, because everyone on the Lost community on LJ flipped wondering what the heck it was all about. (I think a couple of stills from it were preview images or something).
I had forgotten about the episode with Charlie's wacky dreams, however.
Mr Eko is just as awesome as I remember. I still hate Ana-Lucia (though not for the reason I hated her first time around; this time it is just because she's irritating as heck).
I have now fully revised all the Korean words I know (yes (예 ye), no (아니 ani), what? (뭐? mwo) ).
I am continuing to enjoy this rewatch, anyway. I'm glad I decided to do it!
